You can use [[:File: No image.png]] to show unuploaded files instead of red links. {{User:DarkNight/sig}} 00:37, September 8, 2020 (EDT)
Several of your [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|Battle Card]] uploads were missing [[:Category:Paper Mario: Color Splash Images]]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 01:46, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
:I am aware. The way the bestiary template works is it provides the autolink for the image to use in the bestiary. Sometimes it already exists, sometimes it doesn't. This is just to keep the images following a specific naming scheme. I thought this stuff through when I reworked the sites bestiaries a couple years ago.--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 00:41, September 8, 2020 (EDT)
:They weren't missing, I just hadn't uploaded them yet. They should all be there now, and I'll start working on the enemy cards soon.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 02:35, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
::I don't care if you are in the process of uploading cards by clicking on red links. I do that all the time. What I was referring to was that images need to have additional categories besides their copyright status, as described by the blue box above. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 02:54, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
:::I started adding those when I began putting in the thing cards, but I was having troubling getting it right. I'll fix it soon if it hasn't been done already.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 03:00, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
::::Oh, I just thought you didn't know how we categorize things here, especially file uploads for this case. Try a copy-paste method when editing the summary of the [[Special:Upload|upload page]]. If you lose track of your uploads, MarioWiki logs [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|them]]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 03:08, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
:::::Oh ok. sorry.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 03:15, 24 October 2016 (EDT)


== Battle Card ==
== Some ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' stats for you (in case you can't find them in the game's files) ==


Yes, there are several cards in the game, but that doesn't mean the page title has to refer to more than one as well. Page titles here are generally named in singular form, unless they're something like a group (e.g. [[Five Fun Guys]], [[Chosen Toads]]). We also have other pages [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)]], [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)]] and [[Battle Card]], so for the sake of consistency, there's no need to pluralise it. {{user:Mario jc/sig}} 02:03, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
As shown in [https://youtube.com/watch?v=hbEbCsCxHsg this video], Scissors has 336 HP, while Stapler has 350 HP. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 04:04, September 11, 2020 (EDT)
:My apologies then. I'm new and didn't know this.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 02:35, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
:Thanks--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 13:19, September 11, 2020 (EDT)


== Moving Files ==
== Plural linking ==


When [[Special:Log/move/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|you're moving files]], make sure to tag the file redirects with {{tem|delete}}, which I just did as a demonstration. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 02:07, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
Just one thing to keep in mind, if you're linking plural terms such as "Goombas" it does not need to be a piped link. You can link it like <nowiki>[[Goomba]]s</nowiki> and it will come out just fine. Even though ones like "Spinies" will need to be a piped link. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}}
:ok. Thanks, I think?[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]])

== Art vs. Sprite ==
== Something else to look into ==


MarioWiki wants both. Don't overwrite artwork with a sprite. Upload sprite as a separate image. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 02:56, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
While it's nice that you're digging to find ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' enemy stats, it would be nice to also try and find durability stats for the various weapons in the game (e.g., how long [[Iron Boots]] can be used before they break). Just something I thought I'd bring up. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 14:09, September 16, 2020 (EDT)
:Alright, thank you. I thought I was doing good by updating those with newer images, but I understand.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 02:58, 24 October 2016 (EDT)
:I tried that, but found that the durability varies. I'm not sure if it's different for every weapon, if it depends on how many enemies are hit, or dependent on your timing with the attack. Too many possible variables for me specifically to figure it out.--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 14:14, September 16, 2020 (EDT)
::Ehh, that's alright. I was hoping for consistent values, but I guess not... {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 14:19, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

It is against our rules to create stub articles, which is what all of your recent articles have been. When creating an article, it is your job to make sure it has all necessary information. If you continue to create stub articles you will receive further warnings. {{User|Yoshi876}}

== Moving files ==
== Rabbids Battle Maps ==


Hi there, great work with all the Color Splash images that you've been uploading! Just a quick tip: when you move a file to a different title, remember to tag the redirect with {{tem|Delete}}, rather than blanking the page. This way, the unneeded page will show up in [[:Category:To be deleted]], and an administrator will come along and delete it soon. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
The articles for the ''Donkey Kong Adventure'' DLC levels of ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'' are currently still missing their battle maps. --{{User:ZanyDragon/sig}} 22:11, January 31, 2025 (EST)

Please explain.
{{User:L151/sig}}
:Well, up on spriters resource are the png files that make up the entire prism island map. using those, one can put it all together in photoshop to recreate the map in its original resolution of 6000x3462. Of course it'd be scaled down to meet the 10mb file limit. I just wanted to know if it's alright to upload that here, or if its not allowed?[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 02:57, 29 October 2016 (EDT)
::No, despite being jpg, quality is decent and resolution enough to maintain. {{User:L151/sig}}
 
== Edit reversion ==
 
Hello. Rather than [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Paper_Mario:_Color_Splash&curid=203329&diff=2085944&oldid=2085909 reverting] someone's valid edit without an explanation, it would have been best to approach them on their talk page if you had a concern about their change. In future, please make sure to insert a reason for the undo in the "Summary" box before saving the edit.
 
For this particular case, it was unnecessary to count off all the predecessors of the ''Paper Mario'' series in the one sentence, as this information is found within the linked [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]] article. It is more succinct and makes a lot more sense to just state the game that ''Color Splash'' succeeded, which was the aim of that sentence. Thanks for your consideration.
 
{{User:Shokora/sig}} 15:44, 2 November 2016 (EDT)
:I apologize. I'll revert it. I had previously thought it was unnecessary to make that change and that it may have been a slight jab at Color Splash's success when compared to the previous titles, only being better than Sticker Star. This is no longer the case though.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 16:19, 2 November 2016 (EDT)

== Re: PMCS Chain Chomp ==
 
Other template such as {{tem|ML:PIT}} and {{tem|ML:BIS}} have enemies that can't be attack (directly) too such as [[Shroob Chomp]] [[Bowser Memory Boo]] etc. I don't think this should be an exception. (If that makes sense). {{User:The RPG Gamer/sig}} 16:57, 9 November 2016 (EST)
:No, see, the point I'm making here is that they don't attack you, and you don't attack them. They're an npc.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 17:02, 9 November 2016 (EST)
 
== RE:Big Paint Stars ==
 
It really doesn't. The height of the table doesn't matter. It looks wrong with the text wrapped around the image, especially when the text is just the name of a Koopaling. That's the only place I've seen that on the wiki and it looks wrong. I'm going to change it back.<br>
{{User:Ultimate Mr. L/sig}} 22:14, 9 November 2016 (EST)
:Just to clarify, do you mean the images I added are wrong, or the line break?[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 22:18, 9 November 2016 (EST)
::The line break.
::{{User:Ultimate Mr. L/sig}} 22:20, 9 November 2016 (EST)
:::I'm saying that there should be a line break. The text should not wrap around the image.

::::::Sorry. Still looks wrong. Are you on a laptop? If so, and if you have access to a regular computer, I would look on that regular computer and see what I mean.

== Replace Images ==
 
I see you are uploading screenshots for ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. I have two images that need replacing: [[:File:Black Lava Bubbles.jpeg]] and [[:File:Wild Dino Rhinos.jpeg]]. Can you do it? --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 22:37, 10 November 2016 (EST)
:Yes. I'll get to it later.[[User:Eldritchdraaks|Eldritchdraaks]] ([[User talk:Eldritchdraaks|talk]]) 22:43, 10 November 2016 (EST)
::You only have one image to replace now. At the time, [[:File:PMCS BlackBowsersCastle05.jpg]] wasn't uploaded when [[:File:Black Lava Bubbles.jpeg]] was (unless you feel that a 1280x720 version should be uploaded for the not deleted image). The only image still in need of a replacement (if you can still do it) is [[:File:Wild Dino Rhinos.jpeg]]. Thanks for your consideration. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 18:19, 11 November 2016 (EST)
 
== Color Splash Bestiary ==
 
You are doing a good job with [[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]. I say that a [[Bestiary]] similar to [[Paper Mario: Sticker Star bestiary|Sticker Star's]] needs to be created soon to be consistent with the other RPGs. Think you can handle that? {{User:Yoshi the Space Station Manager/sig}} 01:29, 13 November 2016 (EST)
:Wow. I mean, I'd like to, but I have no clue how to get the stats of the enemies in that game!{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 02:03, 13 November 2016 (EST)
::I can easily do that, Leave that to me. :) {{User:The RPG Gamer/sig}} 02:35, 13 November 2016 (EST)
:::Well then I guess I'll do it. but first I'll need ALL the stats from [[User: The RPG Gamer]]. --{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 03:21, 13 November 2016 (EST)
 
==Color Splash sprites==
I can't actually rip sprites, only if they came from the Spriter's Resource. And thanks for asking, but I'm going to decline the offer to upload Color Splash sprites, first of all, I'm already busy working on another project here on MarioWiki and second, I actually have to start caring about Color Splash itself to have any interest contributing to it. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 13:14, 13 November 2016 (EST)
:As my sister said, I appreciate the request, but I am not invested in it, and I cannot rip Color Splash anyhow, even if I did have access to the tools. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 21:35, 14 November 2016 (EST)
 
== Italics ==
 
Great work you're doing for Color Splash! Just remember that whenever you write a game title on articles, it should be in ''italics'', like so: <tt><nowiki>''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''</nowiki></tt> (which becomes: ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''). Thanks and keep contributing! {{user:Mario jc/sig}} 22:49, 14 November 2016 (EST)
:Another way to italicise is by doing <nowiki><i>this</i></nowiki> or <nowiki><em>this</em></nowiki>. {{User:The RPG Gamer/sig}} 23:02, 14 November 2016 (EST)
::Alright.--{{User:Eldritchdraaks/sig}} 23:32, 14 November 2016 (EST)

Some Paper Mario: The Origami King stats for you (in case you can't find them in the game's files)[edit]

As shown in this video, Scissors has 336 HP, while Stapler has 350 HP. Toadette icon CTTT.pngFont of Archivist Toadette's signature(T|C) 04:04, September 11, 2020 (EDT)

Plural linking[edit]

Just one thing to keep in mind, if you're linking plural terms such as "Goombas" it does not need to be a piped link. You can link it like [[Goomba]]s and it will come out just fine. Even though ones like "Spinies" will need to be a piped link. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8
