Hi, I'm Pseudo-dino!
I'm Pseudo. My pronouns are she/her and they/them, and I am extremely normal about the earlier games in the Mario Party franchise and 2000s Mario RPGs as well as various other Nintendo 64 and GameCube games from my childhood. Other games of interest for me include the Kirby, Super Smash Bros., Splatoon, and Super Monkey Ball series, but those are largely outside the scope of this wiki.


I've been on this site for quite a while. I used to be an idiot and semi-troll, but I don't think I am any more. When I first joined the wiki, I added a bunch of random, meaningless, and false information to rather obscure pages in an attempt to gain recognition for myself. I'm sorry about that, I really am. I don't do that kind of stuff any more.
I'm a longtime member of the Super Mario Bros. X fangame community as well, and I am an administrator on the [http://www.supermariobrosx.org/forums/index.php SMBX forums] and Discord server.


So, yeah, I have a lot of contributions to this wiki. You should check them out here, if you'd like. [http://www.mariowiki.com/Special:Contributions/Pseudo-dino]. I try to improve the wiki's writing style overall with my edits nowadays. I also like to add species infoboxes to obscure enemy articles. It's just the kind of guy I am.
I am also extremely normal about the Mario Wiki itself and have been an on-again off-again active editor since late 2007. My writing and editing skills have improved a whole lot since then, and I think I've made some pretty good contributions to the wiki starting in the early to mid 2010s (I created a few articles before this, but [[Block (Super Mario 64)]] and [[Pump Mario]] were my first real babies on the wiki, and I believe a large step up in quality from my previous work). You can read below for details on my contributions, of course. My philosophy in wiki-editing is making articles as informative and intuitive to navigate as possible, which is why I proposed to merge the [[White Block]] and [[Grab Block]] articles in July 2023 — while I really do understand the wiki policy and precedent arguments against this in the end and respect people's opposition to the idea, I'm strongly inclined to challenge these policies since I think it would make things a lot more intuitive for the end user since these two are functionally the same object. I'm not against splitting articles when it would help, after all.

As for video games, I mostly play Super Smash Bros. Melee these days. I'm what you call one of those competitive players that a lot of people hate. You know, the "Fox only, no items, Final Destination" kind of thing. That's a ridiculous oversimplification of the game's nuances though, especially since I personally hate Final D. Battlefield is where it's at for me. Also, I'm a Jigglypuff/Peach player (and lots of other players use characters besides Fox, too!), so there's that. I really do prefer to play with no items during 1v1s and doubles, though, and that's pretty much true all across the competitive community. Unlike some, I'm OK with using items during silly friendly matches and 4v4s.

It's me.

I'm Pseudo. My pronouns are she/her and they/them, and I am extremely normal about the earlier games in the Mario Party franchise and 2000s Mario RPGs as well as various other Nintendo 64 and GameCube games from my childhood. Other games of interest for me include the Kirby, Super Smash Bros., Splatoon, and Super Monkey Ball series, but those are largely outside the scope of this wiki.

I'm a longtime member of the Super Mario Bros. X fangame community as well, and I am an administrator on the SMBX forums and Discord server.

I am also extremely normal about the Mario Wiki itself and have been an on-again off-again active editor since late 2007. My writing and editing skills have improved a whole lot since then, and I think I've made some pretty good contributions to the wiki starting in the early to mid 2010s (I created a few articles before this, but Block (Super Mario 64) and Pump Mario were my first real babies on the wiki, and I believe a large step up in quality from my previous work). You can read below for details on my contributions, of course. My philosophy in wiki-editing is making articles as informative and intuitive to navigate as possible, which is why I proposed to merge the White Block and Grab Block articles in July 2023 — while I really do understand the wiki policy and precedent arguments against this in the end and respect people's opposition to the idea, I'm strongly inclined to challenge these policies since I think it would make things a lot more intuitive for the end user since these two are functionally the same object. I'm not against splitting articles when it would help, after all.

Long-term wiki goals

  • Merge Panser with Volcano Lotus. This is the most important proposal I’ve created in my opinion (with my successful goop proposal as a close second), and I still strongly believe that it would be right for the wiki to merge these articles. These are almost certainly intended to be the same enemy with the exact same Japanese name and similar behavior, and it seems to me that they are only not recognized as such due to differing localization between Super Mario Bros. 2 and Super Mario World.
  • Move Tornado Jump (move) and Tornado Jump (badge) to Tornado Jump (Paper Mario) and Tornado Jump (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door), respectively. The current names are not very clear, since the TTYD version is a move as well.
  • Add information regarding the Jump move in RPGs. Add infoboxes, additional damage details, and so forth.
  • Create an article for the Hammer move in RPGs. Long overdue, really. Discussed by Blinker on Talk:Super Hammer (move). Proposal draft here.
