Favorite Mario power-up	Hammer Suit, Boomerang Flower, and Blue Shell (Shells are awesome.)

Hello there! I am Doc von Schmeltwick. I lurked on this site since about 2008 (I remember Bowser's Inside Story and NSMBW getting announced long after I had discovered this site), then finally joined on May 15, 2017. I really enjoy the Mario games, as well as many other things. What I dislike is political garbage, be it governmental, social, identity, et cetera. Just...keep that off here, it does not belong.

My other wiki project

Best character who hasn't been made (yet): Gold Tanooki Cat Baby Metal Waluigette: ultimate roster filler!

• 

  Most underappreciated artwork ever

• 

  If you're actually reading this excuse for a page, this is probably you (talking to you epecially KF)

• 

  I wanted to keep this on a whim, lel

Some current goals:

Definitely

• Split Bin into something logical
• Merge Super Soda to Fresh Juice
• Merge Ice Piranha Plant to Frost Piranha
• Merge Lava Piranha to Fire Piranha Plant
• Merge Anti Guy to Black Shy Guy and clean up the latter
• Merge Bob-omb Buddy to Bob-omb or at least clean up the former akin to Red Boo
• Merge the Mario Kart "Mecha Bowser" and Bowser Monument back to Bowser Statue, using noclip evidence to assist
• Do something with the various actual Mecha-Bowsers (Kun, Safari, Sunshine, and Galaxy)
• Merge Fire Orb to Fireball
• Determine proper distinction (if any) between Fire Breath and the projectile "Bowser's fire"
• Determine proper distinction (if any) between Fireball, Fireball (obstacle), and Bowser's fire
• Merge Water Barrel to Barrel
• Split all the distinct goop types
• Merge the Mario Party Advance "character" articles back into their source pages
• Have a better enemies section on the SPP page, not relying on the non-exhaustive glossary
• Merge kannon (cannon) and kannonball into cannon and cannonball, respectively.

Maybe

• Merge the Dark Moon section of Big Boo into Boolossus
• Merge King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine) to Big Boo
• Merge the red and blue Spiny Shells
• Merge Owl (species) to Heavy Zed
• Make a page to combine generic instances of switches (including generically named instances of ! Switch) and/or buttons
• Merge Fire P-Pakkun to Jumping Piranha Plant (Encyclopedia-only distinction later titles seem to go back on)
• Merge colored Magikoopas
• Merge the identical chef-specific Paper Mario series dishes
• Determine extent of coverage for 2003 Diddy Kong Pilot and/or Banjo Pilot
• Merge Bat (Mario Kart 64) and Bat (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon) into a generic "Bat (species)" article
• Merge Lightfish to Glimmer

No proposal needed!

• Collect more SGB sprites
• Finish PM enemy idles (need to animate Crystal King and do everything for Crystal Bits and Bowser; Lava Piranha is probably asking too much)

So you've gotten into a debate with me

Want some tips into effectively arguing with me? For starters, if I start a debate acting on-the-fence suggesting a change, do not under any circumstances attempt to shut it down with a "no that's 100% impossible." Instead, take a more ambiguous approach like I'd started with. Basically, the more you push, the more I'll push back. I'm like Canary Mary from Banjo-Tooie in that regard. Additionally, "this is an English Wiki" is not now and never will be an argument. It may be an English wiki, but it's a predominantly Japanese franchise, so not looking at it from an international perspective is disingenuous and helps nobody.
