| Though there are several deprecated templates that didn't work out (which is why we have proposals), I'm posting this to acknowledge the good work that you're doing. [[User:Super Mario RPG|Super Mario RPG]] ([[User talk:Super Mario RPG|talk]]) 12:48, January 23, 2025 (EST)

| == Removing notice templates ==
| |
|
| |
| I've noticed you frequently removing tags indicating work or improvements. For example, the ''Sticker Star'' stickers, which are in a limbo of being either sprite rips (which are inaccurate to their in-game appearance) or [[:File:SquirtgunPMSS.png|blurry, low quality screenshots]]. Similarly, you've removed talk templates when no conclusion was reached, almost systematically judging by them going in alphabetical order. [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch) sound test|This article]] should not have had its construction tag removed because there are blatantly empty columns. There's no point in removing these templates to ensure the work is harder to find for people who want to do it. {{User:Scrooge200/sig}} 03:22, February 6, 2025 (EST)

| :The reason I removed the templates on the thing stickers (as mentioned in my first edit) was because of the shine effect that appears on them in-game. A direct sprite rip can't replicate that and I don't think it's beneficial to prioritize an image that doesn't accurately display the subject as you would see it in-game, and multiple users agreed with me before I went ahead with removing the templates. Nothing against possibly having the sprite rips uploaded against, but I don't think they should outright replace the more accurate in-game display. The inconsistency is a separate issue that we need to work out as editors, but until then we don't need templates asking for them to be reuploaded in a specific way.

| :As far as talk templates, that's something I (and some current staff members) have been doing for a while simply to aid in usability of the category. I try to be careful not to remove any talk templates when there's a question of fact, but often times someone will make a suggestion to split, merge, or rename a page, and then the discussion just sits there for months or even years without any action. Over time those messages really start to clog up the category and make it very difficult to find anything (at some points in time, the category has had well over ''400'' pages). The way I see it, if you're suggesting a change to organization, it's your responsibility to keep that discussion active and follow through in some way. (Thankfully, recent changes by Porple have made it so that those issues should go under the appropriate maintenance categories instead of taking up space in unresolved issues, so that should be less of a problem going forward.)

| :That being said, I recognize that my judgment obviously isn't perfect and I welcome anyone to revert the edit or start a discussion if they feel I removed something in error. Case in point, the sound test article! I was mainly checking to see if all the songs had samples and the empty columns slipped past me. So thanks for catching that one. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 11:53, February 6, 2025 (EST)

| == Feedback on cleaning up a category ==

| Hi! You were the user who had cleaned up the [[list of power-ups]], weren't you? I'm planning a cleanup of [[:Category:Power-ups]], but before I start a proposal to enact any changes, I'd like some feedback on what should be kept or removed. Please see [[Category talk:Power-ups|that category's talk page]] for more details, and post your reply there. {{User:SolemnStormcloud/sig}} 13:00, February 6, 2025 (EST)
