MarioWiki talk:Warning policy

I should point out that crossing your flaming at another user out deserves a reminder. So if I said "You idiot" at somebody, but I crossed it out like this: You idiot, it deserves a reminder. Just saying.

Remembered Old Buddy.

I'd actually say it's more dependent on circumstances: sometimes it could be a reminder-worthy example of passive-aggressiveness, but it might also truly be in jest, and other times, it might be so bad that it deserves a warning despite the "just kidding" excuse. Keep in mind that a lot of situations aren't as clear-cut as we'd like them to be, and things are bound to come up that aren't detailed on this page: it's not an exhaustive list, after all, but more of a guideline on how to deal with troublemakers while at the same avoiding breaking rules yourself. - Walkazo 17:56, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

What if somebody made consecutive edits on a page? I do it sometimes, but that's because I don't want my netbook to load all the page up just to edit one minor mistake, and sometimes, I just spot another mistake after editing the page. :/ It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:00, 9 July 2011 (EDT)

Yeah that happens to me sometimes. Supremo 16:02, 9 July 2011 (EDT)

That happens to everyone; it only becomes a problem when someone always edits like that. Going through a page section-by-section is okay, as is going back and fixing a couple things you missed the first time, but making a dozen minor edits to a single paragraph will get people peeved at you (especially if you're waffling over one issue: undoing the change, redoing it, tweaking it, trying something else, going back to the first change, etc. etc. - that's what the Preview button's for). - Walkazo 19:24, 9 July 2011 (EDT)

how do you cross out words? purifiedaFile:SuperMushroom.png

By putting a <s> at the start and a </s> at the end. WikiofSmash"It's called society, ever heard of it?" 23:29, 6 August 2011 (EDT)

Joke Redirects: Level???

I think that there should be an offence level decided for creating joke redirects (e.g. User's page, redirected from Noob). Joke redirects include anything similar to the example given as well.

This isn't an exhaustive list: specific offences can usually be lumped in with the more general things we've included here. Those sorts of redirects would be considered flaming and be punished as such. - Walkazo 23:44, 6 August 2011 (EDT)

Userspace warnings

Is ignoring userspace warnings considered akin to ignoring a reminder? The article seems to include those, but it's not very specific there. Bop1996 _(Talk)

Yes, in this article, reminders mean both the {{Reminder}} template and the {{Userspace}} template. I don't think there's any exceptions. Marioguy1 (Talk | Contribs)

Alright, that clears things up, thanks. Bop1996 _(Talk)
