1. Finish making all the recipe tables consistent, and add any missing recipes / fix errors
2. Rewrite body sections of recipe pages


I've noticed some strange discrepancies regarding how glitches are handled when a game has only 3 or 4 of them documented here. ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' has a separate article for its 3 glitches ([[List of Wario Land 4 glitches]]), but every other game with 3 glitches simply has those glitches merged with the game's page. Specifically, [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong#Glitches|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'']], [[Super Mario Strikers#Glitches|''Super Mario Strikers'']], [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)#Glitches|''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' (Nintendo Switch)]], and, most glaringly, [[Wario Land 3#Glitches|''Wario Land 3'']] have sections for glitches rather than separate lists.
3. Double check [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch) bestiary]] stats


More complicated is figuring out how to deal with games with 4 glitches. Of the 6 games with 4 documented glitches:
4. Continue adding NIOL citations (start by finishing TTYD)
*4 of them have glitches merged into the main article: [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2#Glitches|''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'']], [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze#Glitches|''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'']], [[Donkey Kong Land#Glitches|''Donkey Kong Land'']], [[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle#Glitches|''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle'']]
*2 of them have separate "List of glitches" articles: [[List of Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! glitches|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'']], [[List of Super Mario Advance glitches|''Super Mario Advance'']]


I put forward this proposal to determine a minimum number of glitches for the creation of "List of glitches" articles. That way, there is consistency between games with the same number of documented glitches. Additionally, if new glitches are documented later that brings the total number over this minimum, a new page can easily be created without the need for a proposal, as the editor can cite this proposal.

Option 1: The minimum number of glitches should be 3. "List of glitches" pages would be created for ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'', ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' (Nintendo Switch), and ''Wario Land 3'' to match that of ''Wario Land 4''.
6. Get back into [[Super Mario-kun|''Super Mario-kun'']] coverage (images, character appearances)


Option 2: The minimum number of glitches should be 4. [[List of Wario Land 4 glitches]] would be deleted and its glitches merged into the main game's article. "List of glitches" pages would be created for ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'', ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', ''Donkey Kong Land'', and ''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''.
7. Rewrite minor SPM character pages as they just word for word repeat tattles much of the time
::*I just don't know much about SPM atm


Option 3: The minimum number of glitches should be 5. [[List of Wario Land 4 glitches]], [[Lit of Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! glitches]], and [[List of Super Mario Advance glitches]] would be deleted, with the glitches merged into each game's main article.
==Articles that need new Recipe tables==
I'm sorting these by how their recipe sections are currently formatted.

*[[Dried Bouquet]]
*[[Fresh Juice]]

*[[Honey Syrup]]
*[[Hot Sauce]]
*[[Maple Mushroom]]
*[[Maple Syrup]]
*[[Mushroom Fry]]
*[[Sleepy Sheep]]
*[[Thunder Rage]]
*[[Turtley Leaf]]
*[[Volt Mushroom]]


I could continue with 6, 7, etc., but I feel once this point is reached there is enough to warrant separate "List of glitches" articles, especially since game articles are typically long and images are usually needed to showcase glitches, using up more room.

*[[Dried Mushroom]]
