Image size
Could someone edit this template so that it allows the user to use an individual image size rather than a fixed one? I ask because the fixed size is higher than the resolution of the Game Boy Advance, causing that articles like Super Wario Bros. use an overstretched image. --Grandy02 09:38, 3 January 2009 (EST)

Hmmm...
Tried to add somehing, but acidently caused a mess, as you can see here... can anyone fix it please?

Image in the infobox

In response to Mario Party Superstars giving certain mini-games as many as four iterations, it was decided to show only an image of the original iteration in the infobox. Despite little discussion and not being a formal proposal, this ended up being implemented. However, I disagree with this, partially because it's the exact opposite of MarioWiki:Naming#Name changes, and partially because a suggestion I had in that discussion went unnoticed - namely, having each iteration in a separate tab, as is done with stages on SmashWiki. Additionally, in the case of mini-games that appear in both Mario Party 1 and 2, whose differences are often more significant than those of Top 100 and Superstars iterations (and can sometimes be considered separate mini-games due to having different Japanese names), only the 1 iteration is acknowledged, and in the case of mini-games in 6 that have day and night variations, only the day variation is acknowledged.
As a result, I think we should have a formal proposal deciding how to handle this.

Use only the original iteration in the infobox
Use only the newest iteration in the infobox
- Pseudo (talk) Failing the tab option, this is my second choice since it follows the wiki’s usual conventions of prioritizing revised content.
- Camwoodstock (talk) This'd be the simpler choice, but honestly, it might be better.
- Biggestman (talk) I feel the most current and best-looking version should be the image presented, and for basically every minigame the most recent iteration is the best one visually
Use all iterations in the infobox
Use both the 1 and 2 iterations where applicable and both the day/night variations from 6, but otherwise use only the original
- RickTommy (talk) First preferred option.
- Tails777 (talk) Comparing Mario Party mini-games to Mario Kart tracks, we should logically stick to the originals in the case of mini-games that appeared in The Top 100 and Superstars. Concerning Mario Party 6, well since both variations are from the same game anyway, I don't see how keeping both in the infobox hurts. Primary option.
Decide on a case-by-case basis which mini-games should have multiple images and which ones should have only the original
Have each iteration is a separate tab
- RickTommy (talk) Third (and most) preferred option. However, we'll need to install the functionality for it.
- Pseudo (talk) This seems like the most ideal option to me, and would be well-worth the extension. There might end up being other places on the wiki where it’s applicable.
- Camwoodstock (talk) Much more ambitious would probably be this option--we feel like doing this might raise a few conundrums, however, especially when you consider stuff like returning Mario Kart stages.
- Tails777 (talk) Secondary option, per Pseudo. Having a tab option would not only help here, but even in other areas (example, Mario Kart tracks).
