I don't know if I'm the only user who thinks this, but I am uncomfortable with the ''Mario Kart Wii'' section. The reason is obvious - it mentions Adolf Hitler, a beyond controversial dictator, with the comments below it mentioning other controversial dictators during WWII. I know humor is subjective and ''maybe'' some people find this funny, but I don't. Am I allowed to create a proposal about the matter? {{User:Sparks/sig}} 11:49, April 14, 2024 (EDT)

:I don't see why you couldn't make a proposal on this. I'd oppose it, though, because the mere mention of a historical figure isn't offensive in the least.

Nintendo Land[edit]

I remember on that day the 2012 chat party about The 'Shroom when Marshal Dan Troop blocked an IP adress for 3 months because that person went to Nintendo Land and replaced all of the content on that page with "SUPER MARIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" or something like that. That person also went to the Game & Wario page and replaced the content with "LOL". Do any of you people think that this vandalism should be added? It looks like BJAODN material to me.

Remove Ice Climbers section[edit]

It isn't funny. I've read it twice now and haven't found any notable mistakes worth laughing at. I think it should be removed. UserPyroGuy.png (T · C) 13:31, 27 September 2015 (EDT)

It's one of the silliest run-on sentences I've ever seen. As a marvel of grammar alone, it should stay. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
It's technically not a run-on, but it's so egregiously lumped with prepositional phrase after prepositional phrase that it's terrible writing and guaranteed to make you skim over. I don't think it's quite BJAODN worthy, since it's purely awful writing, but you can keep that. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario!

What pertains to BJAODN, and what doesn't?[edit]

I feel like adding some nonsense to this ridiculous thing we have on the wiki, but I've always been under mental conflict, because I am still confused as to what is worthy to be featured in BJAODN, and what isn't. - MarioManiac1981 User talk:MarioManiac1981 MarioManiac1981 (talk) 19:23, 27 October 2018 (EDT)

P.S., fix my mistake there. - MarioManiac1981 (talk) MarioManiac1981 (talk) 19:25, 27 October 2018 (EDT)

Gah! I made another one! MarioManiac1981 (talk) 19:26, 27 October 2018 (EDT)

In terms of this game section, usually it's poorly written entries or vandalism that has been found funny enough to keep. You shouldn't intentionally write something bad just to get in on BJAODN, there's an example of why on the main page. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 19:27, 27 October 2018 (EDT)

I added a section about Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars , but now I'm not sure that what I put there is funny enough to be worth putting on here. Could someone please check it out and see if it belongs here? Pirate Goomba (talk) 12:39, June 26, 2023 (EDT)

On How to unlock Adolf Hitler.[edit]

Wait. If you need to unlock every playable character, does that mean you have to unlock Adolf Hitler to unlock Adolf Hitler? SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 11:41, April 4, 2023 (CST)

The Mario Kart Wii section mentions Adolf Hitler, a controversial dictator during WWII. The comments below the entry mention Stalin and Mussolini, two more controversial dictators alive during the time period. I'm sure that I am not the only user uncomfortable with this. I know humor is subjective, so some people will find this section funny, but I do not and I don't think such people should be mentioned.

I will say that I'm not sure how this proposal will go. If this proposal is to succeed, the section is removed - simple as that. If it fails, the sections stays. Everyone has a different sense of humor, so we'll see what happens.

Support[edit]

  1. Sparks (talk) Per my proposal.

Oppose[edit]

  1. Koopa con Carne (talk) Clutching one's pearls at the bad parts of history is understandable. Beyond acknowledging all these individuals as reprehensible, I have personal reasons to hate Stalin's guts and everything he stood for. That said, censoring that history on the basis that it was bad is childish.

Comments[edit]

I think it would be best for me to cancel this proposal now. This was a mistake, and I'm sorry. If this proposal was to keep going there'd be heated political arguments and no one would want that. These figures are controversial but as Koopa con Carne said, the section just mentions their names, not anything offensive or the like. link:User:Sparks Sparks (talk) link:User:Sparks 12:39, April 14, 2024 (EDT)

Oh, I also forgot to say, that maybe it's better to create a notice template that warns the reader for mature/explicit, and/or sensitive material, rather than outright removing said material from the wiki. I think Bulbapedia had a similar notice template in the Trivia section of Lopunny. We're not Bulbapedia obviously though, so maybe you guys find this stupid or whatever.
