== Baby Yoshis ==

You say the Yoshis in Yoshi's Woolly World are Baby Yoshis, but I don't think that's quite right. Can you provide a source for your info? If I'm proved wrong, I'll correct my mistakes. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:46, 4 October 2016 (EDT)

== Minor Edits ==

Hi there! Just a quick reminder (well, not an actual {{tem|reminder}}), remember to check the box that says "This is a minor edit" for, well, minor edits. I'm talking about [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Bowser&type=revision&diff=2097894&oldid=2095647 this edit]. Thanks for reading and keep contributing!<br>

== Optimizing PNGs ==

It's a good idea to optimize PNGs before [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|uploading]]. Here's [[User:Wildgoosespeeder/PNG Monstrous|why]]. Not in trouble, just a recommendation based on your recent uploads for ''[[Hotel Mario]]''. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 23:37, 16 December 2016 (EST)

== Moving template pages ==

Pardon me for maybe being ignorant on the matter, but have you gotten permission to move the {{tem|rewrite-expand}} template? Moving a template to a new page can break a lot of links, and it usually involves input from the staff before moving it. Additionally, if you haven't gotten permission, a {{tem|warning}} may be issued, as you have made a major change without the approval of higher-ups. Not trying to sound nagging here, just letting you know. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:48, 16 March 2017 (EDT)
:I do not think it is correct to move {{Tem|rewrite-expand}} to {{Tem|Incomplete}}. We already have {{Tem|Stub}} for that. {{Tem|rewrite-expand}} is for articles that are poorly written and lacking detail. You should create proposals before making changes like that. --{{User:Supermariofan67/sig}} 14:24, 16 March 2017 (EDT)

== Warning ==

{{warning|2=making major changes without approval}}
Learned you have moved the template without any discussion from the staff or other users. Please make some sort of discussion before enacting a major change next time. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:22, 16 March 2017 (EDT)
:I agree with this sort of change (like [[Bulbapedia:Template:Incomplete|Bulbapedia]]), but for a change like this, you need to [[MarioWiki:Proposals|create a proposal]] and consider as many aspects of the change as possible. Here's some other templates that should be considered: {{tem|construction}}, {{tem|rewrite}}, {{tem|rewrite-expand}}, {{tem|stub}}, {{tem|stub}}, {{tem|image}}, {{tem|more images}}, and other templates I may have missed. Half-baked ideas don't do so well compared to fully formed ideas. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:19, 16 March 2017 (EDT)

== Moving Contents ==

Be sure to check everywhere the article turned into a redirect links to ([[Special:WhatLinksHere/Super Thwomp (Mario Kart)|your redirect]] and [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Super Thwomp|article]]). Mostly, the namespace ''template'' will do the majority of the links, which will make the transition way easier. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 18:26, 17 March 2017 (EDT)

== Mario Kart 8 image ==

http://nintendonews.com/news/wii-u/diddy-kong-birdo-kamek-mario-kart-8/ Rumor: Diddy Kong, Birdo, Kamek Spotted In Mario Kart 8

The image is photoshopped. Diddy, Birdo, and Kamek are not in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and will not be, since Nintendo is focusing more on ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' that they aren't going to release anymore DLC for the original game. Please do not add the information again. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:28, 11 April 2017 (EDT)

== Template Pages ==

I'm not seeing any discussion about the creation of the [[Template:Tt|tt]] and [[Template:Tt2|tt2]] templates. You've been [[#Moving template pages|warned about this before]], so please show me the discussions if I have missed them. Otherwise, the templates may be deleted for being created without approval. You can't just go making templates. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:44, 14 May 2017 (EDT)
:About the templates, they are useful, but I'm wondering if you created these from scratch or if you copied the code from somewhere else. Please respond within 7 days, or we're just going to delete them due to administrative oversight.{{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:43, 15 May 2017 (EDT)
Also, did you discuss the creation of [[Template:Fandom]] with anyone? Additionally, I'm not sure copying a template from another wiki like you did with the templates mentioned above is allowed. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 10:30, 16 May 2017 (EDT)

==Templates==

To add to Lindsay151's comment on https://www.mariowiki.com/Template_talk:Tt , there are many reasons why nicking a template from another wiki is not acceptable:

-Beyond the fact that simply lifting coding from another NIWA member wholesale looks bad, Bulbapedia's and Mariowiki's copyright clauses are different and thus, incompatible.

-Even if the two licenses were compatible, nearly all wiki licenses require borrowed content to be properly attributed to the original editors. Which you did not do.

-'''Even''' if there were no such clauses in the licenses, asking someone if they're fine with you borrowing their content is the moral and professional thingto do.

So yeah, please do not copy templates wholesale from other wikis, unless the licenses are compatible and you properly attribute the original coder, or ask for their permission. Doing otherwise is a serious ethical problem and could give the wiki real bad PR. I hope you realize that. --[[User:Glowsquid|Glowsquid]] ([[User talk:Glowsquid|talk]]) 11:01, 16 May 2017 (EDT)
:I replied there to [[Template talk:Tt]]. I think the template idea is a good one, but a proposal needs to be created before proceeding, which many members have tried to tell you before and you ignored it, including myself. Also consider {{user|Glowsquid}}'s notes about copying. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 14:59, 16 May 2017 (EDT)

== Signature ==

I noticed your signature insersion <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> is inserting raw code instead of [[User:{{BASEPAGENAME}}/sig|your actual signature]]. Here's [[Help:Signature]] to get that back to working based on [[MarioWiki:Signatures|policy]]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:08, 16 May 2017 (EDT)

== Signature ==

[[:File:Sms wiggler.jpg]] is getting replaced by [[:File:Wiggler SMS.png]], which is used by [[User:{{BASEPAGENAME}}/sig|your signature]], and will be deleted. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 19:14, 23 June 2017 (EDT)

== Moving pages ==

Hello! When moving pages, please do not [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Yoshi_puzzles&curid=215477&diff=2279305&oldid=2210187 copy] and [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Yoshi_(series)&curid=215475&diff=2279304&oldid=2077232 paste] them. Instead, mark the redirect for deletion and let an administrator delete it, and move the page once the redirect is deleted. This allows page histories to be preserved. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 16:02, 1 September 2017 (EDT)
:Additionally, do not move pages before a discussion has ended and a decision is agreed upon. Thanks. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 21:56, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

== Yoshi puzzles -> Yoshi (series)? ==

Hello. I noticed that you copied and paste Yoshi puzzles to Yoshi (series). First, that is not how to move something to a new place. You press move in the tab section. Second, the move you are wanting to make. Unless you have proof of why it should be moved, it should not be moved to Yoshi (series). Even then, you must show it to other users. And Yoshi puzzles was establish by a [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/46#Move Yoshi, Donkey Kong and Wario (series) pages to * (franchise) and retool|proposal]], so this is especially the case. {{User:Yoshi the Space Station Manager/sig}} 16:05, 1 September 2017 (EDT)
:Also, for moves this large, you need to make a proposal first, then it has to succeed. You can't just move things like that around willy-nilly. {{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} 15:09, 1 September 2017 (CT)

==Mario Kart 8 Deluxe driver classes==
Do you have a source for the driver classifications? If not, I'll have to revert the page to what it once was. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 17:23, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

I have a a Prima guide for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}
:All right, fair enough. Thanks for the response. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 17:27, 14 September 2017 (EDT)
::You're welcome. {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}

== ''Super Mario Run'' Images ==

Hi, if possible, could you please upload images on the newly confirmed ''Super Mario Run'' enemies, like you did before? Thanks! {{unsigned|Toadette the Achiever}}
:See below comment(s). {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 20:41, 29 September 2017 (EDT)

== Super Mario Run Enemy Images ==

Did you screenshot or data mine those images? 8:17 PM, Sep 29th 2017 DryBowzillaJP

I just made screenshots and then cropped them. {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}

== Nintendo Switch logo ==
There is no NS black logo, this is not official. The official version is only white on red. [[User:Nintandi|Nintandi]] ([[User talk:Nintandi|talk]]) 09:08, 18 October 2017 (EDT)

How about just red? {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}

Where are you finding the just red logo of the [[Nintendo Switch]]? The only official ones I'm finding are a white logo on a red background. There's also no need to have two of the same image. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 16:23, 18 October 2017 (EDT)

:The official logo is white on red, or white on something else (for transparency). Black and red versions are not official. [[User:Nintandi|Nintandi]] ([[User talk:Nintandi|talk]]) 21:45, 18 October 2017 (EDT)

What should I do to the red logo now? {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}
:Mark it up for deletion it seems. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 21:48, 18 October 2017 (EDT)
I just did. Are you going to protect it as well? {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}

:I found other official versions of the logo on the nintendo wiki if you want [[User:Nintandi|Nintandi]] ([[User talk:Nintandi|talk]]) 21:53, 18 October 2017 (EDT)

==Yoshi's Story==
Last I checked, ''Yoshi's Story'' '''is not''' considered part of the ''Yoshi's Island'' series. A recurring thing I notice with you is your repeated making large and significant changes to pages without discussing first, and that really ought to stop, before you change something that nets you a warning. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:56, 21 October 2017 (EDT)

== Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS amiibo ==

Hello! Do you have a source for your [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Super_Mario_Maker_for_Nintendo_3DS&curid=212207&diff=2320555&oldid=2317681 recent] [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Amiibo&curid=178097&diff=2320554&oldid=2320452 edits] to the ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' and amiibo pages stating that amiibo were originally going to appear in the game? Please remember to cite your sources, or the information could be [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Amiibo&diff=next&oldid=2320554 removed]. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 14:39, 24 October 2017 (EDT)

== Last Warning ==

{{last warning}}
You are continuing to make major changes without approval. Doesn't matter if whether or not {{tem|ink}} or {{tem|Bp}} or changes to the {{tem|fandom}} templates would be helpful, a discussion about these '''should still happen'''. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:14, 24 October 2017 (EDT)

Okay. I'll start over. {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}
:For future reference, discussions about the creation of templates like these would occur on the [[MarioWiki:Proposals|proposals]] page, so users can decide whether it would be okay to have or not. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:18, 24 October 2017 (EDT)
:Okay. Roger that. {{User:Woodchuck/sig}}

::For ''further'' future reference, templates are usually transcluded onto [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Rewrite-expand|several pages]], so adjusting the parameters '''without consent and proper work''' can screw things up. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 18:26, 11 November 2017 (EST)

== Conjecture ==
Stop adding conjecture templates to everything that has a ref needed template on the name. "Conjecture" means we are at least ''pretty'' sure it's a fan-made name. "Citation Needed" means it could be real, but not cited, but we don't know. This is ''especially'' the case with ''Super Mario Odyssey'', due to that stream that occurred and wasn't recorded confirming many things, but being unciteable. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 01:29, 27 October 2017 (EDT)

== New 3DS ==

Due to two [[Talk:Nintendo_3DS#New_3DS_separate_article|failed]] [[Talk:Nintendo_3DS#New_3DS_separate_article_try_2|proposals]], the New Nintendo 3DS information is to remain merged with the [[Nintendo 3DS]] article. If you think they should be split, a new proposal should be created. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:52, 9 December 2017 (EST)

== Proposals ==

First off all, proposals should have the {{tem|TPP}} at the start of the section, and the date needs to be ''two weeks'' after the start dates, always ending at 23:59 GMT.

Second, you just started [[Talk:Nintendo_3DS#Split_this_article_into_Nintendo_3DS_and_New_Nintendo_3DS|this proposal]]. Does that mean you want [[MarioWiki:Proposals#Split_Nintendo_3DS_into_Nintendo_3DS_and_New_Nintendo_3DS|the original proposal]] to end? Discuss that with a staff member next time, alright? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:27, 11 December 2017 (EST)
:Can't have two of the same proposals going on at once, so I would like you to chose which one to keep. Otherwise I'll just pick one. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:26, 12 December 2017 (EST)
::I'd keep the one [[Talk:Nintendo 3DS|here]]. {{user:Woodchuck/sig}}
:::Okay. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:30, 12 December 2017 (EST)

== Peach's Castle Redundant Writing ==

Please stop adding [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Peach%27s_Castle_(New_Super_Mario_Bros._U)&oldid=2350959 this redundant writing] as both me and someone else has reverted your edits a few times. If you add it again, you might get a warning or even blocked. &ndash; [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 10:18, 14 December 2017 (EST)

== Buttons Proposal ==

Are you aware of the current proposal?--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 13:41, 15 December 2017 (EST)

== Gold Koopas ==

Hi. You changed Gold Koopa Paratroopa from a redirect to its own article, and removed the rename request from the Gold Koopa Troopa article; however, the Prima guide clearly groups them as [https://i.imgur.com/iJkF1bV.jpg Gold Koopas] together, and the reference wasn't updated to reflect this difference. Do you have a source for these two names? [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 16:30, 21 December 2017 (EST)

== Minor edits ==

The edits you made to the category links on the ''Minecraft'' file pages are considered minor edits. Please remember to mark these types of maintenance edits as minor in the future; making multiple consecutive minor edits without marking them as such is a [[MarioWiki:Warning policy|level one offence]] and floods the Recent Changes when filtering out the edits that are marked as minor. Thanks. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 19:19, 21 December 2017 (EST)

== Buttons ==

A proposal recently passed to change the switch buttons to be more easily readable, as well as adding a few buttons ([[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/49#Changing_and_Adding_to_the_Switch_Buttons|See Here]]). Since you are the one who made the buttons, I was hoping you could make these changes.--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 11:08, 11 January 2018 (EST)
:Do you still have the original files?--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 15:27, 12 January 2018 (EST)
::Yes. [[File:KingbooSunshine.jpg|x35px|link=Special:Contributions/Woodchuck]][[User:Woodchuck|Wood]][[User talk:Woodchuck|chuck]][[File:Wiggler SMS.png|x35px|link=Special:Editcount/Woodchuck]] 15:47, 12 January 2018 (EST)
:::Will you make the edits and additions noted in the proposal? --{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 18:51, 12 January 2018 (EST)
::::Sure. [[File:KingbooSunshine.jpg|x35px|link=Special:Contributions/Woodchuck]][[User:Woodchuck|Wood]][[User talk:Woodchuck|chuck]][[File:Wiggler SMS.png|x35px|link=Special:Editcount/Woodchuck]] 20:01, 12 January 2018 (EST)
:Since you're back now, Can you find the time to take care of the buttons?--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 15:08, 1 March 2018 (EST)

== Leaked MK8DX Images ==

I'm pretty sure these [[:File:Petey Piranha leak MK8DX.jpg|two]] [[:File:Paratroopa leak MK8DX.jpg|images]] you uploaded are fake, especially since the video they're from was uploaded on April 1st. {{User:LuigiMaster123/sig}} 16:35, 20 January 2018 (EST)

== Welcome Back. ==

i Saw You Were Blocked For awhile. Well We're Glad You're Back. Just Be More Careful To Prevent Trouble. :) [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 16:51, 25 February 2018 (EST)

== Baby Yoshis in Woolly World? ==

Hey there! I was trawling through the wiki edit pages, and it seems that you're the first person to have any mention of Woolly World having Baby Yoshis. Have any source on that? Thanks in advance. {{User:MegaYarnPoochy/sig}} 05:17, 4 March 2018 (EST) {{User:MegaYarnPoochy/sig}} 05:17, 4 March 2018 (EST)
:Found the only instance in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] where Baby Yoshis are mentioned is in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Please do not continue to change and revert this information, unless you have a source that says otherwise. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:59, 4 March 2018 (EST)

== Proposals Info ==

First of all, there's no need to place the same proposal in two different places. Just once is enough.

Second, you wait until ''after'' the proposal ends to make the proposed changes, not while the proposal is active. Wait. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:28, 6 March 2018 (EST)
