== "There" vs "their" == | |||
You're confusing these two words. "There" is the word used for the location (as in "over there" or "There is a Super Mushroom in the ? Block") while "their" is the possessive pronoun and the plural form of "its" (e.g. "'''Their''' attack level is 3", not "'''There''' attack level is 3"). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:59, April 27, 2021 (EDT) | |||
== Proofreading == | |||
Thanks for creating those articles, though please remember to proofread your edits for mistakes, as multiple users have often come along and fixed them for you, some of which are recurring throughout later articles (for instance, don't say "first appear" if it's their only appearance, and "shinier and stronger" doesn't need a comma in between). You should also look over what fixes were made by checking the article history pages to see how you can improve. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:00, April 28, 2021 (EDT) | |||
Also don't forget to refer to the person as “the player” rather than informally “you.” Make sure you check these articles for spelling and grammar errors afterwards. Take your time. {{User:The Mansion/sig}} 11:22, April 29, 2021 (EDT) | |||
Remember, when you have a game identifier in the title, use [[:Template:Italic title]]. Also, set a title parameter for the infobox so that it displays only the item's name and does not include the identifier. {{User:Scrooge200/sig}} 16:23, April 29, 2021 (EDT) | |||
Try not to pad out your articles with repetitive and obvious information to extend the length of the article, like saying "it's a healing item" and it also "has no effect on enemies", or that "it can be placed in the Sticker Museum, '''along with other stickers such as...'''" because that second part is obvious. An article doesn't need to be long to be good, it just needs all of the necessary information. A couple other things: | |||
*The first letter of a phrase in parentheses should be lowercase if it's in the middle of a sentence; e.g. "Bloopers ('''a'''lso known as Bloobers) are..." | |||
*Languages like "British English" should be capitalised. | |||
Regarding the [[Fury Sun]] edit, it's "in '''which''' case", not "{{wp|witch}}". {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:04, April 30, 2021 (EDT) | |||

== Signature reminder == | |||
{{sigfix|2=signature is too large}} | |||
{{sigbox|Bowser64}} | |||
Please shrink your signature down so it fits in the box; that means changing the "45px" image sizes to "x35px" (note the x before the number, which specifies height) or less, and reducing the amount of text. Also, make sure you're using your personal images on your userpage or your signature ([[:File:Bowser64 Sig2.png]] and [[:File:Bowser64 Sig.png]] are currently unused), otherwise they will be deleted. | |||
Finally, ''do not'' throw an English name into a translator and use that as the Japanese name. Official names should be used for the "Names in other languages", which is "Deka Kira Mugen Jump"/"デカキラむげんジャンプ" (found [[List of sticker names in other languages|here]]), not "Big Shiny Infinijump" transliterated into Japanese. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 12:34, June 3, 2022 (EDT) |

Hello, this is my talk page. If you wish to say something for my Sandbox, either ask here, or here. Read the rules below this text please.
- Rules
No hate comments: Anything rude or inpolite, it's worse if it was for no reasoning. Swearing: Obviously there shouldn't be reasoning to do this behavior.
- Notice
Usually i am somewhat active, whenever you'd send me a question/statment, a message appears on my screen (Like Other Users.), whenever i see it, i will most likely read (Or Answer) whatever is on here.
Thanks for reading this, - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)
Writing guidelines[edit]
I think you need to know a few things about how articles are supposed to be written. First of all, we don't say "you" when referring to the player, either we say the playable character's name or "the player" depending on the context. Don't put subjective things in articles, such as stating which bosses are easiest or areas are biggest. You don't need to put "Note:" when stating something, either just start a new sentence or paragraph. Lastly, game titles must be italicised, which is done by putting two apostrophes on each side (not quotation marks) e.g. ''Paper Mario: The Origami King''. You should see MarioWiki:Manual of Style and MarioWiki:Good Writing for more regarding our guidlines. Thanks for reading. Nightwicked Bowser 21:33, February 24, 2021 (EST)
- Regarding the creation of Flashy Mushroom, you included the use of the word "you" in it, didn't italicise every time, and you need to put any relevant navigation templates and categories at the bottom of the page. One other thing I should mention, you tried physically writing out a "stub" notice at the top. All you would need to do for that is write it as "{{stub}}" and it would appear as you intended it to be. Nightwicked Bowser 22:09, March 23, 2021 (EDT)
Please stop not following writing guidelines on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Please follow the guidelines that have been pointed out to you; they are important, and it's a hassle for others to constantly fix these mistakes or point them out to you. The Shiny Hammer article was missing a few things, two of which you were already notified for above for previous article creations:
- Remember to italicise any game titles you type out yourself. You place the title between two pairs apostrophes, on each side (
''Paper Mario: The Origami King''
). This should be done both in text and in headings. - Don't capitalise after a comma, Like this. Words should be capitalised if it's the first word of a new sentence (after a period) or a proper noun.
- Categories should be added at the bottom of the page (in this case, Category:Paper Mario: Sticker Star Items and Category:Paper Mario: The Origami King Items).
Be sure to check your articles to see what fixes were made. For future articles, if you need to, there's nothing wrong with looking at other similar articles and seeing how they are structured. Mario JC 21:26, March 26, 2021 (EDT)
- A warning will most likely be given if you keep using "you" on articles from this point. Also, please stop responding to talk page discussions that are from a few years ago. Nightwicked Bowser 10:32, March 27, 2021 (EDT)
Flashy Iron Boots was better. A few things:
- The name of the article should have been bolded, not italicised ("Flashy Iron Boots are items...").
- Remember to add navigation templates above the categories.
- A minor error, but the image caption for the sticker was missing italics for Paper Mario: Sticker Star and "In" was capitalised.
Mario JC 21:43, April 11, 2021 (EDT)
Can i delete the page above this? I now now the "(Number)px" thing, ect. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 19:38, April 19, 2021 (EDT)
- No, deleting comments is not allowed, and it's better to keep them for future reference anyway.
- Also, please make sure you're signing with your signature page {{User:Bowser64/sig}} at all times and not raw code that's different from it. Any change you want to make to your signature, you make on your signature page. Mario JC 22:37, April 19, 2021 (EDT)
You're still using raw code that's different from your signature to sign your comments. Please change your preferences to sign with your signature page, then if you want to change your signature's appearance, do it on the signature page, not on your preferences. That raw signature is too long anyway. Mario JC 22:37, April 22, 2021 (EDT)
Images and linking[edit]
When putting images in articles, all you need to do is code it like this: [[File:PMTOK Bobby.png]]. This will cause the image to display rather than just showing the link. The same goes with article links, you can link them like: [[Bowser]]. I know you only did this on your userpage, but I just thought I would show you how this is done properly, even to make your userpage look how you intend it to be. Nightwicked Bowser 11:28, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Thank you. I was about to ask someone how they do that. User:Dreamy Bowser/sig (Your Probably Already Know It's Me Since This Is My Page.) And, how do you make a user box tower? (I joined 1 or 2 years ago so i have no idea how.)
- I'm not sure how to do a userbox. I noticed that a lot of images in your userpage are way too big, you can reduce their sizes with [[File:PMTOK Bobby.png|100px]] (the "px" part determines how big the image is). And you can easily sign your comments with ~~~~ Nightwicked Bowser 13:35, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Show preview[edit]
If you want to see how your edits look before saving the page, use "Show preview". You can continue editing until you are ready to save the page. Doing this prevents repeated edits to the same page, flooding the Recent Changes and page's history. 12:08, March 10, 2021 (EST)
- Also, pages like Clone Jump are too short to be an article. Please look at other similar pages for proper article building, and also take a look at our help guides. The article will be deleted, as we don't accept stub articles, but you are free to recreate it once you have more information. 12:11, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Alright, but why would they say "See Clone Jump" on Double Cherry, if it doesn't exist? User:Dreamy Bowser/sig And, how do you make a user box tower? (I joined 1 or 2 years ago so i have no idea how.)
- It's requesting the page be made, but if you don't have enough information to make the page, you should hold off until you do. As for the userbox tower, instructions are here. Also, sign your comments with four ~, how you are doing it now is causing your entire userpage to be displayed here on your talk page. 12:27, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Thanks for telling me. User:Dreamy Bowser
Hey, How do you change your username? User:Dreamy Bowser
- You can request your name to be changed here. An admin will then eventually change your username. Nightwicked Bowser 13:32, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Not to be inpatient, but it's been hours and i don't know if it was approved or not. Dreamy Bowser (talk) 15:32, March 10, 2021 (EST)User:Dreamy Bowser
You are still editing your userpage extensively after the past couple of hours. Please use show preview to check your edits so you can save everything at once. 17:32, March 10, 2021 (EST)
- Yeah, try not to make too many edits to your userpage at once, you should really be editing mainspace articles a lot more often. Nightwicked Bowser 20:24, March 10, 2021 (EST)
Alright, but how do you make a user box? this is what im talking about, just an example, but User:Fawfulthegreat64 Has a user box. (Or whatever it's called.)) Dreamy Bowser (talk) 21:20, March 10, 2021 (EST)User:Dreamy Bowser
Nevermind, it's called a info box. How do i make one? Dreamy Bowser (talk) 13:11, March 11, 2021 (EST)
- You can take a look at infoboxes on other user pages or copy the coding from one of the wiki infoboxes. But also
Dear Bowser64, It has come to our attention that you are currently in violation of the userspace policy. Please review the policy and abide by it, or else a warning will be issued. Thank you for your cooperation. |
- You are not following what we've been telling you, and you been editing your userpage extensively. Mix in some other main article edits as well, and use Show preview to check your work without having to save rapidly. 17:22, March 11, 2021 (EST)
Alright, I'll Stop Editing For A While. Dreamy Bowser (talk) 17:23, March 11, 2021 (EST)
Signature creation[edit]
If you want to create your signature, there is a link on this page where you can do so. This will also explain how to put images on it. Just make sure you follow the rules on MarioWiki:Signatures. Nightwicked Bowser 21:32, March 22, 2021 (EDT)
You can link to the pages you meant to by using [[User:Bowser64]], [[User talk:Bowser64]], and [[Special:Contributions/Bowser64]]. -- Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 12:29, March 23, 2021 (EDT)
Warning[edit]
This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (continuing to edit your userpage without focusing on the wiki) on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site. If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Despite the above, you continue to edit your userpage with very little focus on the main wiki itself. The only article you've edited since your userpage creation is Double Mario, and we need to see more of that. While I'm glad you want us to get to know you better, the Super Mario Wiki is not a profile site. 11:20, March 23, 2021 (EDT)
Ok Then. Dreamy Bowser (talk) 20:28, March 23, 2021 (EDT)
Its vs. it's[edit]
"It's" is the short form of "it is", while "its" is the possessive pronoun, so the correct way to use the latter would be "its port", not "it's port". Also, rather than saying "...and is in its port", try to use more professional language like "...and reappears in its port". Mario JC 23:36, March 23, 2021 (EDT)
Reminder[edit]
Please stop writing in second-person on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Please write with proper grammar and style on articles. Not only were you still writing in second-person in your last edit after being notified twice, you're not capitalising proper nouns like "mario", "toad" and "bob-omb". You also tend to overuse commas and use periods less often. Make sure to use periods when starting a new sentence (e.g. "This glitch can end if Mario enters a battle, though cutscenes do not fix the glitch." should be a separate sentence from the previous info), otherwise just using commas leads to comma splices. Whether creating a new article or just adding information to an existing one, it's strongly recommended you read through the guidelines that were linked to you, especially MarioWiki:Manual of Style. Mario JC 21:20, March 24, 2021 (EDT)
Hey, i'm reading the warning policy and it says "Please note that any sockpuppets of an existing account are automatically banned.", what is a sockpuppet exactly? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- A sockpuppet is an extra account created by the same person, sometimes to pretend to be someone else or to evade a block.
- Also, regarding your signature, you're only allowed one GIF, and it should be 35 pixels or less in height (
[[File:Bowser-MH3on3.gif|x35px]]
) per MarioWiki:Signatures. Mario JC 21:52, March 24, 2021 (EDT)
Ok. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Reminding you that you still used "it's" during your recent edit in the Fire Breath article. You don't need to link every single instance of names being used, only do that the first time that name is used. There is also no need to pipe link plurals, that should be done like this: [[Fury Block]]s and will appear just fine. Regarding the section headers of Super Mario 3D World, you should format them like this: ''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', leaving a space before and after the slash. Nightwicked Bowser 16:45, March 26, 2021 (EDT)
Ok, i'll add those changes then. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Why is everything with M's Name Now Gone? Is it because it's April Fools Day or because its past March 31st? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- Most likely it's just for today. Should be back to normal tomorrow. Nightwicked Bowser 17:34, April 1, 2021 (EDT)
This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (writing in second-person) on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site. If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
This shouldn't still be an issue after you were reminded multiple times. Stop using "you" on articles. Mario JC 00:51, April 13, 2021 (EDT)
What article did i say "You"? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- I linked it in the warning: Fury Bowser.
- Also, make sure you use your file File:Bowser64 Sig.png or it will be deleted. If you want to use the text part for your signature, you can use an image editing tool like MS Paint to crop out the surrounding black space. Mario JC 22:52, April 13, 2021 (EDT)
- One more thing, in the future when uploading more personal images, just remove the {{aboutfile}} if you're not using it and {{uncategorized}} once you've tagged it with {{personal-file}}. Mario JC 23:17, April 13, 2021 (EDT)
Ok, i also don't know how to crop. im on a laptop. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- You can still use apps like MS Paint (or Paint.NET or Photoshop if you have them) on a laptop. On Paint, use the "Select" tool and drag it over the part you want, then click "Crop". Mario JC 08:11, April 14, 2021 (EDT)
Will this thing called "Adobe Photoshop Express:Photo Editer College Maker" Work? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Nevermind, doing Source URL works. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
This is your last warning. The next time you break the rules in any way, you will be blocked from editing the Super Mario Wiki. If you feel this last warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
There are still times where you're using "you"[1] in articles and using "it's when you should be using "its"[2].
Also, you should reformat this page so that the text is not centered. Nightwicked Bowser 16:18, April 29, 2021 (EDT)
(deep breathing) Ok. Now i feel like im basically Screwed done for. -- Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 16:26, April 29, 2021 (EDT)
Also, i don't see "You" In the article. -- Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 16:28, April 29, 2021 (EDT)
- It's in the first revision I just linked to. Anyway, you won't get blocked instantly if you break any rule (the template probably could be reworded actually), it's just if you don't abide to these specific messages. You shouldn't panic from this, you're supposed to learn from it. Nightwicked Bowser 06:48, April 30, 2021 (EDT)
So, if the description in-game says "You" in it, does it count as saying it in 2nd person? -- Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 08:07, April 30, 2021 (EDT)
- That's the only exception. Nightwicked Bowser 08:21, April 30, 2021 (EDT)
I also don't see saying "You" in articles on the three level offences. -- Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:29, April 30, 2021 (EDT)

Other users' comments in talk pages[edit]
Editing other peoples' talk page comments is not allowed, even if it is to fix a spelling mistake, so please stop doing that. Nightwicked Bowser 20:46, April 2, 2021 (EDT)
Ok - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
This may seem a bit strict, but please don't respond to comments or discussions that are from several years ago. The user(s) involved may not be active anymore. Nightwicked Bowser 13:47, April 27, 2021 (EDT)

This image[edit]
Are you going to keep that as a personal image? If so, it should be tagged with {{personal-image|Bowser64}}, and should be used on your userspace. Nightwicked Bowser 16:57, April 4, 2021 (EDT)
Yes, Also Are you able to change the name of the file to "Bowser64_Image.png"? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- You can do that via the "move" tag on the top of the page. Nightwicked Bowser 17:05, April 4, 2021 (EDT)
How do you remove the black screen on a image? For some reason when i upload it it has a black background, even , your signature image has no black background. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Userspace Alert[edit]
Since the warning above, you have edited main articles seven times, which is nice. But you also edited your own userspace 42 times. You currently have 115 userspace edits against your 18 main article ones.
Please ignore your userpage for now until you have more main edits to surpass it. Otherwise, you will lose userpage editing entirely. 20:06, April 6, 2021 (EDT)
Ok, I got 105 edits against all of my 115 Userspace ones, apparently, i need 11 (Or more) edits to surpass the 115. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Now i got 117 edits against my 115 userspace ones. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Question.[edit]
Should i add the locations of the Toad Brigade members in SM3DW+BF's article? I know the articles for the members like Hint Toad show it's location, but it would've make more sense if it was told on the Game's article too. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- I can't really find a good spot for that on the game's article, although their locations are shown on the Lake Lapcat article. Yellow Toad's one could be elaborated a bit though. Nightwicked Bowser 14:43, April 10, 2021 (EDT)
Good think it was Yellow Toad, Convienetly, i already found it's location in the game. By the way, i added where Yellow Toad's location in the Lake Lapcat Article. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- Just three things, Yellow Toad is a disambiguation page which should not really be linked to within main articles. The correct article link in this case is Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade) which should be pipe linked. Also, only the first instance of that name in a section should be linked. Lastly, try not to write like a strategy guide. Nightwicked Bowser 15:09, April 10, 2021 (EDT)
Ok, also, in a part of the Bowser's Fury section of the Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury article, it doesn't make sense how Fury Shadow isn't in the enemies images section near the bosses, it even says on the Fury Shadow article that it's an enemy, should i add a image of the Fury Shadow in that section? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Nevermind. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
How do you make an image without a black background? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Uploads[edit]
Hello, Bowser64. 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. |
Hello, Bowser64. 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. |
Nightwicked Bowser 18:37, April 11, 2021 (EDT)
Please review the above reminders carefully. In the Summary, you're supposed to remove the parts that read "Subject of the image", "Artist" etc. and fill them in; don't remove the "aboutfile" part. For the category, {{Bowser's Inside Story}}
is incorrect; it should be [[Category:Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story Images]]
("Category:" prefix, full game title, "Images" at the end, and square brackets, not curly).
A lot of the mistakes you're making are a result of not reading your talk messages carefully, so please pay closer attention to what users are telling you when they're giving advice. Mario JC 08:53, April 14, 2021 (EDT)
You got the category correct, but you're still removing "aboutfile" which gets rid of the template. Fill in the details underneath it and remove any you don't need, like this. Also, it's easier if you change the file name when you upload in the "Destination filename" field rather than moving it afterwards. Mario JC 09:32, April 14, 2021 (EDT)
File:Bowser Game Over.gif - Almost; remember to remove any parameters you're not using like Alex did here. Mario JC 21:56, April 14, 2021 (EDT)
I just want to let you know that these sprites are actually from the game Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, not Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Nightwicked Bowser 12:59, April 15, 2021 (EDT)
I didn't know because i typed in google "Mario & Luigi: Bowser's inside story Gifs". - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
- I should probably have said this earlier, but it's normally not really a good idea to take images straight from Google Images to use on mainspace articles, even though most of the sprites you uploaded have been good enough to use on the mainspace. It's just the Spike Ball one however that is questionable. I think if you're going to keep taking sprites from Google Images, you may want to make sure it is an official sprite or which game it is from before you upload them. Nightwicked Bowser 13:48, April 19, 2021 (EDT)
Well, you could tell by the images what game there from. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 15:45, April 19, 2021 (EDT)
Please review the category reminder, your last upload File:ShinyHurlhammer.png was missing it. Mario JC 22:47, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
Black Background in images.[edit]
When i upload images, they have this black background, how can i remove it? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Duplicate images[edit]
Hey, I wanted to let you know that the two images you uploaded for the Fury Bowser article are duplicates of existing images, File:SM3DWBF Screenshot Fury Bowser 2.png and File:SM3DWBF Screenshot Fury Bowser 9.png.
Two images with the exact same look are redundant, so when you upload a new image, try to make sure that it doesn't already exist on the page you want to upload it to. If it does, you don't need to upload that same image.
0blivion (talk) 19:48, April 11, 2021 (EDT)
It isn't the same. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Userspace Edits Surpassed.[edit]
Alright, i got a lot more edits to surpass my 115 userspace ones, i got 146. (33 + 42 + 41 + 4 + 20 + 1 + 5 = 146, the numbers making 146 are all of my edits besides my userspace ones.) - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
154 Edits against the userspace ones.. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 14:51, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Anyone anwsering? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)
Comfirm Email[edit]
Hey, this is not entirely about this wiki, but This Wiki isn't letting me comfirm my email. Why's that? - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)
- You probably shouldn't use your talk page to talk about what happens outside of this wiki because it's hindering on what not to do on your userspace. As for the wiki, you might have to check your email if they gave you the confirmation code. Your spam inbox may also have the confirmation email. -- PanchamBro (talk • contributions) 15:10, April 17, 2021 (EDT)
Status subpage[edit]
As stated here, this kind of subpage is not allowed. This should be moved to your main userpage. Nightwicked Bowser 13:49, April 25, 2021 (EDT)
Can't really edit my userpage to add it there. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 15:16, April 25, 2021 (EDT)
- You can edit your userpage now and then, just not excessively / to the point that it completely takes over your mainspace edits. Mario JC 00:47, April 26, 2021 (EDT)
This subpage actually is allowed. For example, here is mine. It just needs to be used on more than just your main userpace, such as also your talk pages. 01:15, April 26, 2021 (EDT)
Does adding it to your infobox count as adding it on my userpage? -- Bowser64 09:18, April 26, 2021 (EDT)
- Yeah, but if it's only on your one page, might as well just use the text itself there. 13:20, April 26, 2021 (EDT)
Articles unmade[edit]
Can i get a list of articles not created? After finishing making all the item articles in Paper Mario: The Origami King's Toad Town section, i haven't really seen any articles not created, not to mention that was the only article creation(s) i was working on. -- Bowser64 19:08, April 26, 2021 (EDT)
- Special:WantedPages. 14:06, April 27, 2021 (EDT)
"There" vs "their"[edit]
You're confusing these two words. "There" is the word used for the location (as in "over there" or "There is a Super Mushroom in the ? Block") while "their" is the possessive pronoun and the plural form of "its" (e.g. "Their attack level is 3", not "There attack level is 3"). Mario JC 21:59, April 27, 2021 (EDT)
Proofreading[edit]
Thanks for creating those articles, though please remember to proofread your edits for mistakes, as multiple users have often come along and fixed them for you, some of which are recurring throughout later articles (for instance, don't say "first appear" if it's their only appearance, and "shinier and stronger" doesn't need a comma in between). You should also look over what fixes were made by checking the article history pages to see how you can improve. Mario JC 22:00, April 28, 2021 (EDT)
Also don't forget to refer to the person as “the player” rather than informally “you.” Make sure you check these articles for spelling and grammar errors afterwards. Take your time. Green Star 11:22, April 29, 2021 (EDT)
Remember, when you have a game identifier in the title, use Template:Italic title. Also, set a title parameter for the infobox so that it displays only the item's name and does not include the identifier. Scrooge200 (talk) 16:23, April 29, 2021 (EDT)
Try not to pad out your articles with repetitive and obvious information to extend the length of the article, like saying "it's a healing item" and it also "has no effect on enemies", or that "it can be placed in the Sticker Museum, along with other stickers such as..." because that second part is obvious. An article doesn't need to be long to be good, it just needs all of the necessary information. A couple other things:
- The first letter of a phrase in parentheses should be lowercase if it's in the middle of a sentence; e.g. "Bloopers (also known as Bloobers) are..."
- Languages like "British English" should be capitalised.
Regarding the Fury Sun edit, it's "in which case", not "witch". Mario JC 21:04, April 30, 2021 (EDT)
Redirect[edit]
Welcome back. Almost. Bone (Paper Mario: Sticker Star) is now a redirect to Bone (sticker). Green Star 19:06, May 14, 2021 (EDT)

Signature change[edit]
If you're changing your signature, you need to change it on your signature page, not the preferences. Mario JC 20:28, October 30, 2021 (EDT)
Done. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox) 13:27, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
- You still need to change your preferences back to "{{User:Bowser64/sig}}" with "Treat signature as wikitext" ticked so you're not signing with raw code. Mario JC 22:52, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
Signature reminder[edit]
Dear Bowser64, Your current signature is in violation of one or more of the rules listed on MarioWiki:Signatures (signature is too large). Please change your signature and keep the regulations and requirements in mind when creating future designs. If you have not made the appropriate changes within one week of receiving this notice, your signature will be changed for you. |
Please shrink your signature down so it fits in the box; that means changing the "45px" image sizes to "x35px" (note the x before the number, which specifies height) or less, and reducing the amount of text. Also, make sure you're using your personal images on your userpage or your signature (File:Bowser64 Sig2.png and File:Bowser64 Sig.png are currently unused), otherwise they will be deleted.
Finally, do not throw an English name into a translator and use that as the Japanese name. Official names should be used for the "Names in other languages", which is "Deka Kira Mugen Jump"/"デカキラむげんジャンプ" (found here), not "Big Shiny Infinijump" transliterated into Japanese.
