==Create administrative position of <font color=red>SUPREME</font>==
I think it’s time to rethink the balance of power on this wiki. The administrative staff does not hold enough power. Sure, they can delete pages, block users, and such. But they can’t control each individual user. And control is the key.
Likewise, the ordinary users have far too much power. All on their own, they make huge changes to pages and even the wiki as a whole, simply because it’s something the majority agrees on—and sometimes changes are made outright without any consultation at all! (The moving of '''Off Wave''' to '''Off Waves''' is a prime example. Such an act really should have been discussed at the ''very'' least!)
Therefore, I propose that a new position be established: <font color=red>'''SUPREME'''</font> (<font color=blue>'''<font color=red>S</font>'''uper-'''<font color=red>U</font>'''ltimate '''<font color=red>P</font>'''residing '''<font color=red>R</font>'''uler of the '''<font color=red>E</font>'''ntire '''<font color=red>M</font>'''arioWiki '''<font color=red>E</font>'''mpire</font>). I also propose that I myself be made first <font color=red>'''SUPREME'''</font>, of which there is only one of at a time. This would give me complete control over everything wiki-related. I would have access to the source code, for one thing, and be able to control what privileges any given user has. I believe I am fully qualified for this great responsibility. After all, I decided a long time ago that I was admin material. And who better to decide who’s admin material than the future <font color=red>'''SUPREME'''</font>?
What cause do you have to support this radical plan? Well, think about it. You would no longer have to shoulder the responsibilities of making your own decisions! You could live the Mario-related part of your life in total IQ-dropping bliss! Still skeptical? Don’t worry. Every person who supports me will receive…(drum roll please)…
A LIFETIME SUPPLY OF '''WAFFLES'''!
And not just any waffles! Pick any topping! Any flavor! Strawberries! Cheesecake! Syrup! Chocolate! Charcoal! And dare I suggest it…<font color=green>FAWFUL</font> <font color=red>WAFFLES</font>!!!
Of course, I would recognize all who supported me through my years on the wiki. [[User:Alex95|Alex95]], for example, would be promoted to position of <font color=green>Captain of the Guard</font>. As a Patroller, he has proven to be quite adept at apprehending vandals. [[User:Yoshi the SSM|Yoshi the SSM]] would become <font color=purple>Chief Secretary and Treasurer</font>, and [[User:Luigi 64DD|Luigi 64DD]]’s status as a Critic Corner writer would make him a valuable <font color=orange>Critical Analyzer and Advisor</font>.
[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]], of course, would be given the option either to retire with a large severance package (of waffles), or stay on as <font color=green>Prime Minister</font>, with access to source code and semi-limited control over users.
Of course, this new system may take some getting used to. But you’ll find that sacrificing every bit of freedom and individuality you have was the best decision you ever made! And when you see me at my coronation, my green-and-black crown being lowered onto my electrified head, you’ll think, “I did this! I supported Ultimate Mr. L! I saved the Super Mario Wiki!”
If you want to think at all, that is.

Revision as of 01:02, April 2, 2018

Once upon a time, this was a banner used for MarioWiki:Proposals (although it was uploaded off-site).

This is the subpage containing all the dumb proposals made. (Well, not all, just funny ones.)

BJAODN

Well, I was looking at the BJAODN page and I got to thinking, what if we included the BJAODN page in the BJAODN page (with all of the content put on)? All of the content on the page is nonsense, anyway, and would qualify to be on the BJAODN page.

Proposer: Super Mario Bros. (talk)
Deadline: 20:00, 2 May 2009

Include BJAODN Page in the BJAODN Page

  1. Super Mario Bros. (talk) Per my wonderful ideas above.

Don't Include BJAODN Page in the BJAODN Page

  1. Stooben Rooben (talk) - What? No offense, but this seems pretty pointless. I don't get how putting the page in itself is going to improve it.

Comments

I think the "Pie For Everyone" proposal would have been a great idea, too... Super Mario Bros. (talk)


("So we're going to duplicate the page on the page... Great idea.")

("I only made this proposal as a joke, with a reference to the "Pie For Everyone" proposal" - Super Mario Bros. (talk))

("Recursion is always funny. :P" - Phoenix Rider (talk))

Block Mariowiki

Because his name is similar to you-know-what. We could also just make him change his name to something else.

Proposer: TVTrash (talk)
Deadline: December 8, 2013, 23:59 GMT

Block

Change name

Do neither

Comments

Create administrative position of SUPREME

I think it’s time to rethink the balance of power on this wiki. The administrative staff does not hold enough power. Sure, they can delete pages, block users, and such. But they can’t control each individual user. And control is the key.

Likewise, the ordinary users have far too much power. All on their own, they make huge changes to pages and even the wiki as a whole, simply because it’s something the majority agrees on—and sometimes changes are made outright without any consultation at all! (The moving of Off Wave to Off Waves is a prime example. Such an act really should have been discussed at the very least!)

Therefore, I propose that a new position be established: SUPREME (Super-Ultimate Presiding Ruler of the Entire MarioWiki Empire). I also propose that I myself be made first SUPREME, of which there is only one of at a time. This would give me complete control over everything wiki-related. I would have access to the source code, for one thing, and be able to control what privileges any given user has. I believe I am fully qualified for this great responsibility. After all, I decided a long time ago that I was admin material. And who better to decide who’s admin material than the future SUPREME?

What cause do you have to support this radical plan? Well, think about it. You would no longer have to shoulder the responsibilities of making your own decisions! You could live the Mario-related part of your life in total IQ-dropping bliss! Still skeptical? Don’t worry. Every person who supports me will receive…(drum roll please)…

A LIFETIME SUPPLY OF WAFFLES!

And not just any waffles! Pick any topping! Any flavor! Strawberries! Cheesecake! Syrup! Chocolate! Charcoal! And dare I suggest it…FAWFUL WAFFLES!!!

Of course, I would recognize all who supported me through my years on the wiki. Alex95, for example, would be promoted to position of Captain of the Guard. As a Patroller, he has proven to be quite adept at apprehending vandals. Yoshi the SSM would become Chief Secretary and Treasurer, and Luigi 64DD’s status as a Critic Corner writer would make him a valuable Critical Analyzer and Advisor. Porplemontage, of course, would be given the option either to retire with a large severance package (of waffles), or stay on as Prime Minister, with access to source code and semi-limited control over users.

Of course, this new system may take some getting used to. But you’ll find that sacrificing every bit of freedom and individuality you have was the best decision you ever made! And when you see me at my coronation, my green-and-black crown being lowered onto my electrified head, you’ll think, “I did this! I supported Ultimate Mr. L! I saved the Super Mario Wiki!”

If you want to think at all, that is.

NOTE: If you or a user you know happens to be a pig, it’s only fair to warn you that not only are pigs not tolerated in the New MarioWiki Empire, they are also Warned, Blocked, Baconized, and mixed in with waffles.

Move the page "Moogle" to "Moofle"

Just come on guys. For far too long this grave inaccuracy has been pressed upon us. If I may gain the support of this community, I propose we move the page "Moogle" to the more accurate "Moofle". This will clearly not just be a boost to our website's accuracy and traffic ratings, with this measure in place we stand to have a whopping 25% increase in revenue and and the decreased overhead and operating costs will likely be so good as to increase our profit margin as much as 40%! It seems unbelievable but it is true. We could make thousands more than we currently do, and all for such a simple page. MarioWiki, I implore you. Save our Moofle! Save our money!

("Oh, sure, that's great. Snack makes a joke proposal and everyone plays along. I make a joke proposal and an argument breaks out with two users leaving the site." - Ghost Jam)

Pie for Everyone

By request of the creator, the infamous proposal is linked to rather than archived.

(It should be noted that a "Pie Button" did manage to exist, although only very briefly.)

Almost seven years after the original attempt to bring pie to the wiki, the proposal was revisited, and passed by an even greater margin. Sadly, despite the victory, there was still no pie forthcoming from the administrative bakery.

One year after the second proposal, the matter was revisited again, but there was still no pie, mainly because the proposal didn't pass by a large enough margin to satisfy the administrators.

Remove Circuit City ads

I propose that we remove the Circuit City ads and replace them with Best Buy ads, because my uncle is the manager of a Best Buy location, and it kind of offends me that there are Curcuit City ads (this ISthe nephew of a Best Buy manager you're talking to).-Kpshadowsig.pngKP ShadowKpshadowsig.png

(This proposal was later removed by Paper Jorge (talk) with the following statement: "Proposals like that are a NO. Talk to Porplemontage about them.")

Comments

Note: Subjects who opposed the P.I.E. proposal were later terminated upon discovery that they had accessed prohibited files in the database only designated to supreme-class personnel. They were later un-redacted when the Supreme Thwomp Overlords devoured the souls of the supreme-class personnel for not delivering them their feather duster tribute. The proposer was then resurrected in the form of Template:Media link.

Snufit Ball

A few times ago, some user created an article about the Snufit Ball, a projectile thrown by the Snufit enemy in Super Mario 64, it was deleted on the ground that it was "too minor", however I think it should be recreated.

If we have an article on Cheese, we must also allow an article on Snufit Ball. Cheese affect gameplay by boosting the chances of seeing a rare enemy in Luigi's Mansion, Snufit Ball hurt Mario. They both affect Gameplay, they both exist in the Marioverse, they both must have an article.

Deadline: January 24nd 17:00(EDT)

LET'S RECREATE SNUFIT BALL AGRESIVELLY

  2. Glitchmansig.PNG Glitchman (talk · contribs) Glitchmansig.PNG True, this is a very minor proposal and is a minor projectile, Blitzwing does have a point.
  3. Stumpers! lolz. evan teh chezorz iz mur signifcant den dis, lulz. Blitzwing: you have good integrity. :)

NO WAI

Comments

Can we somehow get that Snifit Ball in the same article? Stumpers! 00:42, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Actuaally, the Snifit Ball came before the Snufit Ball, so it would make sense to have Snufit Ball in the Snifit Ball article, but whatever. ALL HAIL SNUFIT BALL ALL HAIL SNUFIT BALL. --Blitzwing 06:50, 18 January 2008 (EST)
Now wait. Projecticles are still different from objects that can be activated, so the comparison with the Cheese article is quite unfitting. I vote for "Only when it gets over two lines of text". - Cobold (talk · contribs) 15:36, 18 January 2008 (EST)
Do Snifit Balls even have official names?Knife (talk) 16:08, 18 January 2008 (EST)
No, but then again, Cheese wasn't named in it's Luigi Mansion appearance except in those unofficial player guide with dubious info. --Blitzwing 16:39, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Is this a serious proposal or a jab at the people who opposed deleting Cheese? >_> NMRodo

Both. --Blitzwing 17:07, 18 January 2008 (EST)
The cheese article has a good length. Something that only consists of:

A Snufit Ball is a small black orb that Snufits spit out of their tubular mouths at Mario in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. They can easily be avoided, but will hurt Mario by one damage point if he touches them.

does not qualify for an article. Not "affecting gameplay" is the ticket to an article, but rather whether the article can actually provide content. And as of now, you don't seem to get past the above version of it. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 17:11, 18 January 2008 (EST)

(Blitzwing later withdrawn the proposal when Cobold modificated "the awesome vote headers".)

(Also note that after this proposal was archived here, someone voted for it again. "Oh no" indeed)

Someone help!

I need help with my comic project: comics N Gang and Club Nintendo.
