{{imagecategory-reminder}}
Thanks for uploading the missing images, but keep in mind the parameters you need to fulfill when doing so. For the category, in this case it would be <nowiki>[[Category:Super Mario Galaxy 2 Images]]</nowiki>. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:34, 30 October 2017 (EDT)
:Additionally, when categorizing images, please be sure to use brackets (<code><nowiki>[[Category:WarioWare Gold Images]]</nowiki></code>) instead of curly braces, as the latter transcludes the category contents onto the page instead of actually categorizing it. Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 18:58, 5 July 2018 (EDT)


== Transparency ==
== [[Special:Diff/4254224]] ==


One last thing regarding images: it's usually inadvisable to crop artwork just to make it transparent (unless, of course, the artwork's transparency is official). Is the transparency you added to your recent uploads official? If not, I'll have to revert all of them to their previous revisions. Thank you. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 21:52, 5 July 2018 (EDT)

:::That's not the proper use of "objective", anyway.

== Reverting Mario Party Icons ==


Sorry about that, clearly I didn't check the website to see for myself. My bad. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 00:37, 9 August 2018 (EDT)
Hello! I saw you recently reverted my icons back to their un-transparent versions and I was curious what was wrong with them? They were perfectly transparent and I don’t understand the issue with them. Thanks. {{Unsigned|DavidGamesYT}}


:No problem, you want to help re-upload the images with white BGs, I'm sorry for any unofficial transparency, and am trying to right his in anyway I can  [[User:Sdman213|SDMAN]] 00:40, 9 August 2018 (EDT)
== Question ==


== Game titles ==
Hey! I saw that you just reverted my edit in [[Sparkle]] because of speculative wording. I don't want to edit war, and I completely understand where I went wrong. I still want to include the information, as I feel it is important. Do you have any better ideas on how I could word it? Thanks for your help! -- {{User:FanOfRosalina2007/sig}} 17:56, September 15, 2024 (EDT)
 
Game titles are usually completely written out and italicized, even if it is already written in the same paragraph or infobox and seems redundant. Also, when [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=The_Claw&diff=prev&oldid=2473041 reverting edits], make sure you are not reverting valid parts of edits as well. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 17:13, 30 July 2018 (EDT)

== Image Gallery Preview Recent Edit Activities ==
 
Hello, I see that we've been both trying to find common ground the past few days regarding image gallery preview section candidates for certain Mario female articles (especially the Peach, Daisy, and Rosalina ones). I believe we've finally good on the ones for the Princess Daisy gallery preview section; but can you tell me why you still want [https://www.mariowiki.com/images/1/1d/MASATLOG_Peach_art.png  this picture] and [https://www.mariowiki.com/images/f/f2/Rosalina-Rio2016-NoBGround.png  this picture] to remain in the gallery preview sections of the Peach and Rosalina articles respectively? Just wondering about that; please reply soon. Thanks in advance. --M. C. - [[User:MeritC|Profile]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 10:54, 8 October 2018 (EDT)
 
Hey, I was just trying to be consistent with other characters, such as Wario and Toad having at least 6 pictures in their preview galleries. I also feel that both of them in their gymnastic outfits show variety and their poses do show their personalities, so I feel they do have a spot in the gallery. --Sdman213 - [[User:Sdman213|Profile]] 12:08, 8 October 2018 (EDT)
 
: Hey, on that [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Rosalina&diff=2526333&oldid=2526126  recent edit you did], it's not really "redundant" in this case because there weren't many promo pictures done featuring Rosalina in Mario game installments (and it's still recommended to target promo artworks of characters related to their involvement in the game installments themselves). However, I do agree that when more promo artworks of Rosalina get done for upcoming game installments (when announced by Nintendo) and when they release, the said gallery preview section for the article could use some revision for showing which pictures would best represent Rosalina for the article itself. Thanks in advance for understanding. --M. C. - [[User:MeritC|Profile]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 00:41, 12 October 2018 (EDT)
 
== Infobox images ==
 
It doesn't matter what's more "neutral," the rules are that the newest artwork goes inside, with the only exceptions I can think of being ones that are extremely stylized or holding an object that isn't intrinsically linked to the character. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 23:08, 9 October 2018 (EDT)
 
== Galleries ==
 
Actually, we prefer to avoid all cases of image redundancies on a page. The "all artwork" thing only applies if the gallery is on a separate page. Otherwise, infobox images should not be in the gallery. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 20:25, 19 November 2018 (EST)
:When adding images to a gallery, the entire gallery does not need to be italicized as seen [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Cranky_Kong&diff=prev&oldid=2580929 here], as this often italicizes the sections after the gallery, not the gallery itself, and galleries should only be italicized in the names of games, which you already seem to be doing. Thanks for your understanding. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 14:37, 14 January 2019 (EST)
 
== Yoshi group art ==
 
But in that case, wouldn't it have been made for the original? Anyways, if you're sure, please change all references to said image from SMW2 links and gallery to the SMA3 one. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 19:04, 9 January 2019 (EST)
 
Should be, since the art in Red Yoshi's gallery links to SMA3. [[User:Sdman213]] 19:05, 9 January 2019 (EST)
 
== "This is artwork, not a sprite" ==
 
Given it's only seen in-game as a character select/vs. image, I'd say they are by definition sprites. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 11:37, 15 January 2019 (EST)
 
== "different canon" ==
 
There ''is'' no canon. See [[MarioWiki:Canonicity]]. Everything should be treated relatively equally, with the exception of the old live action film (due to being so absolutely different, if still enjoyable). [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 15:32, 19 January 2019 (EST)
 
== Yoshi's Story ==
 
The manual actually generically identifies each Yoshi in the game generically as "Yoshi" in sections like "Yoshi's mood," "Yoshi's moves," et cetera. It not being listed on the page is probably a relic from when it was assumed all "Yoshi" characters were the same individual. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 01:09, 10 February 2019 (EST)
 
== DK94 ==
 
Many, many, many enemies in the Game Boy ''Donkey Kong'' harmlessly push Mario along if they touch him. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 18:45, March 31, 2019 (EDT)
 
==Gallery==
That's fine, I just wanted an explanation for your edits. What I generally do is mix up the gallery with screenshots, logos, and group art, as well as character artwork as I believe that's more illustrative of an article gallery than just solo character artwork. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 01:06, April 14, 2019 (EDT)

Hello there! You taking credit for my edits is not cool at all and your edits are not either. So please stop and if you take credit again a warning will be issued! {{User:HEROMARIO/sig}} 21:01, April 15, 2019 (EDT)

That's not the proper use of "objective", anyway. "Unprofessional", "creepy" and "inappropriate" are qualitative value judgement, though most people editing the wiki will agree on those terms (same goes for saying Kirby is cute, Wario is rude, Mario is short, etc). Objective would concern more directly quantifiable and observed terms (Kirby is spherical, Wario drives over speed limit, Mario is shorter than Peach). Icon showing how many lives Mario has left.

Reverting Mario Party Icons[edit]

Hello! I saw you recently reverted my icons back to their un-transparent versions and I was curious what was wrong with them? They were perfectly transparent and I don’t understand the issue with them. Thanks.

Question[edit]

Hey! I saw that you just reverted my edit in Sparkle because of speculative wording. I don't want to edit war, and I completely understand where I went wrong. I still want to include the information, as I feel it is important. Do you have any better ideas on how I could word it? Thanks for your help! -- Artwork of Rosalina used for her amiibo.
