Keep in mind, though, that game-specific subject categories (i.e. Category:[Game title] Characters/Enemies/etc.) must have at least ''five pages'' as per [[MarioWiki:Categories|policy]]. So Category:Super Mario Bros. Characters and Category:Super Mario Bros. Bosses are not needed because they each have less than five entries; only the main game category, [[:Category:Super Mario Bros.]], will do. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:24, 10 August 2017 (EDT)

Do you happen to be RoyKoopa510 (talk)? Your edits seem to be continuing where they left off, and you both share identical computer information. Zero Suit Samus costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:31, 5 August 2017 (EDT)

Categories[edit]

Just wanted to say your help with category maintenance is greatly appreciated, keep it up!

Keep in mind, though, that game-specific subject categories (i.e. Category:[Game title] Characters/Enemies/etc.) must have at least five pages as per policy. So Category:Super Mario Bros. Characters and Category:Super Mario Bros. Bosses are not needed because they each have less than five entries; only the main game category, Category:Super Mario Bros., will do.

One other thing: when adding categories like Category:[Game title] Worlds, Category:Worlds should be removed along with Category:[Game title]. The broader Category:Worlds stays only if the world appears in one or more other games that don't yet have a more specific Category:[Game title] Worlds category (which is almost never the case for worlds, but for characters, enemies etc. this is something to keep in mind). For more information, see the policy page linked above. Zero Suit Samus costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 05:12, 12 October 2017 (EDT)

Italics[edit]

Hi again. When naming game titles, please remember to italicise them, as TheFlameChomp has done for you if you click "Newer edit →" in the links provided (two apostrophes before and after the title). Thanks. Zero Suit Samus costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 23:34, 4 September 2017 (EDT)

Just a quick reminder: game systems like Game Boy Color and Nintendo 64 don't need to be italicised; just the games themselves. Zero Suit Samus costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 07:43, 19 October 2017 (EDT)

Minor Edits[edit]

While it's great that you're improving some pages' categories, keep in mind that, if you are editing a large amount of pages within a short amount of time, you need to mark them as minor edits, per policy. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 12:30, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

Also make sure to mark all of your edits as minor when making them in bulk. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 12:55, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

Bosses[edit]

Bosses are already characters, so Category:[Game] Characters isn't required for bosses (unless the boss is a playable character like Bowser in Bowser's Inside Story).

Playable characters[edit]

Just FYI, Category:Playable Characters is redundant with categories like Category:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters, which themselves are already playable characters. It should only be added if a character has been playable in a game in the Mario franchise that doesn't have a more specific category.
