Hi there.

Stub Reminder

Please stop creating stub articles on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Please don't create stub article. Just cause the some pages in need to be created doesn't mean they have to rush it as seen in Manual of Style. When creating a page put as much amount of effort and fact information next time please.

The page(s) you recently created (Cap Kingdom) has/have been put up for deletion, has been deleted, or turned into a redirect. This may be because it violated at least one of the policies and/or guidelines of the Super Mario Wiki. There are some things you can do to ensure this doesn't happen again.
  1. Make sure there is no other article about the same subject with a different title, especially for conjectural articles.
  2. Make sure the article has enough information to make it a worthwhile read (i.e. it does more than state the obvious, such as "Luigi's Mansion is a mansion that is owned by Luigi"). Overly short articles are known as stubs and their creation is strongly discouraged; it is better to amass enough information to make a solid article right off the bat instead.
  3. Make sure the article is significant enough in the Super Mario franchise to have its own article.

If the article has only been tagged to be deleted you can still fix or expand it, but an administrator may delete it at any time, so please act quickly. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing!

In case you forgot (since the above reminder was issued five years ago), please avoid creating new articles with only a few lines of information, even with an infobox and navigation template. According to policy, any articles relating to upcoming content that simply mention its appearance in the game (with a few other minor details) will be deleted.

It would be best to wait until we have more information on the kingdom before creating it, like the Seaside Kingdom. Additionally, while you did follow most of the steps in the Manual of Style, please remember to italicise game titles as well. Thanks.

Recent uploads

Hello, Argonstorm32. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello, Argonstorm32. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below.

{{aboutfile
|1=Subject of the image
|2=Where you found the image
|3=Artist
|4=Describe edits, if any
|5=Other versions (use file link)
}}

Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello! I noticed that on some of your recent uploads, you forgot to fill out the aboutfile and categorize the image. Please remember to add a game-related category such as [[Category:Super Mario Odyssey Images]], along with adding a licensing (which can be found under a drop-down bar while uploading images). Thanks! --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 18:00, 26 October 2017 (EDT)

Power Moon pages

Just to let you know, pages with nothing but an introductory sentence and an empty table are still considered stub articles. You cannot simply create a page for the sake of it being an existing page; while it doesn't have to be finished from the first edit, it has to at least have a sufficient amount of information off the bat (in this case, actual names and descriptions) before it can be marked as under construction.

Feel free to ask for them to be restored, but be sure you already have content from the get-go in future page creations, okay? Expanding on Mario jc's advice:
"NEVER perform any action merely for said action's sake."
