Welcome, Mariomaster86!
Hello and welcome to the Super Mario Wiki, a collaborative encyclopedia dedicated to the Super Mario franchise. We're glad to have you as a member! If you have any questions, just post them on the FAQ talk page or ask an experienced user, patroller, or administrator. The following pages contain guidance and information about reading, authoring, and participating in the Super Mario Wiki community. If this is your first time visiting, please read our introduction. How do I do that?

Feel free to delete this message when you're done reading it. We hope that this information is helpful and that you have a great experience contributing to our encyclopedia and community. Remember to enjoy your time here and to also have fun! |
"You"s[edit]
Please refrain from using the word "you" next time. When editing in mainspace, we always write in third-person; that is, we use "player", or the character's name, instead. Thanks and keep contributing. Mario JC 02:51, 20 August 2016 (EDT)
- Just another thing: Every time we write a game title, we always use italics. This is done by adding two apostrophes before and after the name (More info here).

File Reminders[edit]
Hello, Mariomaster86. 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, Mariomaster86. 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:
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. |
File:MBSlvl4.gif was missing Category:Mario Bros. Special Images and the {{aboutfile}} wasn't filled out. You can remove it if you don't want to fill it out. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 21:12, 24 February 2017 (EST)

File info[edit]
When linking to an external image (i.e. one not on the wiki), you should include the link in one bracket on both sides. So http://nintendoera.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/IMG_5208.jpg should be [http://nintendoera.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/IMG_5208.jpg], otherwise the entire image would show which may cause some loading issues.

RE:Sourcing information[edit]
To source information, you would put your source between two reference next to what it is you're sourcing tags like so:
<ref>INSERT SOURCE HERE</ref>
The reference will then appear at the bottom of the page in the references section, if one exists. If not, you would place this on the bottom:
