Club Mario Segments

Yes, I know Club Mario is rather obscure, but if segments of it are found, should synopsis of them be made in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episodes? I think a Club Mario segment of "The Unzappables / George Washington Slept Here" is fully intact on Yahooligans, replacing it's regular live-action segment; by the way, what should be done about that? -- Sir Grodus

The problem with this is simply that the Club Mario segments aside from the Unzappables one are impossible to find, from what I can tell. But here's my idea: Provide a Club Mario summary in place of "George Washington Slept Here" for "The Unzappables" article, with a notice in the trivia section. It's unlikely that another Club Mario episode will surface, but if one does, maybe make a seperate sub-category like with the live action segments from the Zelda series, and throw any Club Mario episode articles in there (although I have no idea as to what the "names" of the Club Mario episodes even are. -- Booster

Sounds good and yeah, I think Club Mario segments are unnamed or something. Some kind of conjectural name could be used though, I suppose. -- Sir Grodus

Userbox

Since I had some spare time, I made a userbox for the PipeProject:

Mario cartoons's Userbox Tower
This user is part of the Mario Cartoons PipeProject.

-- Sir Grodus

Nice! I altered it a tiny bit to give it similar wording to the other PipeProject userboxes.

SMBSSbox Changes

Hello hard workers. I have perfected a master list of Super Show episodes on my test page. When all 52 episode pages have been created, and {{SMBSSbox}} has been added to all of them appropriately, this list will be complete and can be used in the main article as a guest star & Mario Episodes list.

In order to make this work, I had to make 4 changes to the way the template is used in articles. Take a look at the old template style for "The Bird! The Bird! / Neatness Counts":

{{SMBSSbox
|image=[[Image: TheBirdTheBird_1.jpg|250px|Mother Birdo giving one of her slobber-filled kisses to Toad, whom she believes to be her baby, Cheepy.]]
|airdate=September 4, 1989
|writer=Reed Shelly, Bruce Shelly
|plumbers_log=1-0-1
|alter-ego=None
|location=Land of Ice
|guest_star=Nicole Eggert
|song=[[Wikipedia:Surfin' Bird|Surfin' Bird]] ([[Wikipedia:The Trashmen|The Trashmen]])
|before=<<
|after=[[King Mario of Cramalot / Day of the Orphan|>>]]
}}

NOW:

{{SMBSSbox
|image=[[Image: TheBirdTheBird_1.jpg{{!}}200px{{!}}Mother Birdo giving one of her slobber-filled kisses to Toad, whom she believes to be her baby, Cheepy.]]
|airdate=9/4/1989
|writer=Reed Shelly, Bruce Shelly
|plumbers_log=1-0-1
|alter-ego=None
|location=Land of Ice
|guest_star=Nicole Eggert
|song=[[Wikipedia:Surfin' Bird{{!}}Surfin' Bird]] ([[Wikipedia:The Trashmen{{!}}The Trashmen]])
|before= 
|after=[[King Mario of Cramalot / Day of the Orphan|>>]]
|#=1
}}

Differences:

1. Instead of a | sign in a piped link or image code, use the template {{!}}, which contains the sign |. This way DPL will still understand the coding as well as the template
2. To conserve space in the big table, use:
   1. shorthand format for dates (didn't realize they were all 1989, but since there are other shows the year is OK to stay)
   2. 200px for image size instead of 250px
3. The # variable doesn't appear in the template, but is called on for DPL. It's the # of the episode in which it aired.

That's all, and all I ask is to use the new style for future episode articles. Keep up the good work in this PipeProject! Wa _T^C_@^Y 22:36, 21 May 2007 (EDT)
