== Renaming Images ==
== Questions ==


Please rename the images you're uploading so they aren't as long & random, thanks. Just edit it in the 2nd entry. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 00:22, 27 October 2007 (EDT)
Question #1: How can you put videos on your talk/userpage?


I'm not warning you, but could you make files' names more shorter? {{User:Coincollector/sig}} have a nice day!
[[Image:DimentioSuperPaperMario.png|35px]][[User:Al24136|<span style="font-family:serif;color:#f03">Alex, head of his own syndicate</span>]][[Image:DimentioSuperPaperMario.png|35px]]  07:47, 16 May 2011 (EDT)


Uhm, is there a way to fix it in the images I uploaded already? [[User:Twentytwofiftyseven|Twentytwofiftyseven]] 00:37, 27 October 2007 (EDT)
==Status Problem==
Okay, Fawfulfury65 told me that I could not keep my status, but [[User:Sonic & Boofan|Sonic & Boofan]], has like 3 subpages about in game models! {{USer:DKPetey99/sig}} 16:28, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
:No FF65 is going to delete it, I was asking why statuses aren't allowed but in-game models as sub-pages are! If you can't help me, forget it! {{User:DKPetey99/sig}} 16:37, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
::And I didn't know I was ignoring a sysop, she said she'll delete it, so I'm was waiting for that! {{User:DKPetey99/sig}} 16:40, 18 May 2011 (EDT)


No. {{User:Coincollector/sig}}
== Rename ==
: Next time, when you upload files, remember it, make shorter names. {{User:Coincollector/sig}}


==Re: Translation==
Can you please change my username??? I like my new one waaaaaaaaaaay more.
Some of the stuff you put on my talk page made sense, and some seemed like plain gibberish. Can you give me a source on where you got that information? I'd appreciate it; I think I might be able to understand what they're talking about a little better. {{User:Garlic Man/sig}}
--{{User:It's-a-me-Mario!/Sig}} 16:30, 26 May 2011 (EDT)


Nothing, although it seems less complicated removing the <nowiki><br></nowiki> and replace with asteriscs for vignettes... on the other hand, 3/4 of the section (titles, text, images...) appeared as centered because it seems you didn't complete the centering syntax there, but I fixed it. {{User:Coincollector/sig}}
== Please ==


==Here to Help==
Can you please block [[User:Destroyer]]? He keeps vandalizing pages. {{User:Yoshiwaker/sig}}
I notice you are missing pictures for your page on unused items in paper Mario. So you can have this. --{{User:Nerdy Guy/sig|Hi}}

== Uh... Hello. ==
To be truthful I don't have the ROM. I just found sites with pictures and infromation and put the pictures I collected from each site and pasted them to gether in MS Paint. I learned some things though. --{{User:Nerdy Guy/sig|P.S The sites said I didn't need permission to take

{{unsigned|FirstMarioFan}}


==Reback==
== <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> tags ==


Yep. I do. I think it was mariomadness.com or something.
Hello 22fiftyseven. Is there a way to change how the <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> tags function - like say change it's default function from creating 4 in a row into 5 in a row? It would be beneficial to very long gallery pages, saves some of our time, and it actually fits under the resolution of 1024 X 768; even if some of the galleries like [[Gallery:Super Mario 64]], and [[Gallery:Super Mario Galaxy 2]] already have that "manually" functioned with <nowiki><gallery perrow=5></nowiki>. I mean come on, you guys somehow forced those galleries to place itself in the center/middle of the page without even using the <nowiki><center></nowiki> tags - which I find surprising! Please respond back. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 16:28, 22 July 2011 (EDT)

==Here to help again==
There Is user Named boss Unit on this Wiki. Her page is almost Identical to mine. She Even Ripped my name off. I Demand something be done about this! {{User:Mecha-Boss Unit/Sig}}


I just got Lunar Magic, so I decided to help you with your Super Mario World Beta Level project thing on the beta elements page. I found one level while goofing around with the "Open Level Adress" function. If you type 30201 into the Open Level adress box, it opens a strange beta level. The level starts out in water, then there are these long tall pipes the block you from going any further. So you have to get rid of the pipes in Lunar Magic. There are some glitchy looking blocks in there too, but they don't effect game play. There are large gaps and no way to cross them, but there are cloud platforms above the gaps. If the pipes are removed, and a path is made in the level to cross the gap, it is playable, but the level is on no vertical scroll by defult, so change it to "Vertical scroll at will" by clicking the Mario Head on the Lunar Magic Toolbar. {{User:Nerdy Guy/sig|I edited it and put it in my hack}}
==Links==


==Re: Beta in SMW==
How do you link articles to the Golden Sun Wiki and the Fire Emblem Wiki {{User|Goomba's Shoe15}}
Thank you for clearing that up. That Beta Hack you mentioned, can you record you playing it if you put in unused stuff in it, and put the video on YouTube, that way we can have a source showing the way the unused things move and do stuff. {{User:Nerdy Guy/sig|Maybe you can use a screen recorder}}

You're probably the 100th User to not read the rule on my talk page which is in BIG font. I've made it more noticeable every time someone doesn't abide by it. I have it for a good reason. As I said, I'm not at all angry at you, but... do you think I should make the rule even BIGGER in font size?
==Hey==


{{User:Dom/sig|Time sucks.}}
Hey, what's up? do you play Mario Kart Wii WFC? if you do whats your mario kart code? {{User|Mario7727}} [[image: Shy Guy Mario Party 4 art.jpg|40px]]


OK, I'll make it red... but you know, you shouldn't just ignore stuff under the TOC (yeah I know, it's Table of Contents), especially '''RULES'''.
and my mario kart code is 0132-4798-5114


{{User:Dom/sig|Red looks hostile though...}}
== Friend Request ==


Ah, you're suggesting I should move the TOC under the rules? Good idea. Actually, I might make the rules yellow, as red looks awful against green.

==Imageframe(?) tag?==
Hello 2257, I recall seeing some kind of imageframe tag being used in one of the articles in MarioWiki and I can't seem to figure out where it is, or what the name is. I need to know what is the name of the tag, and how it functions. As far as my knowledge goes, it allows you to display two images in a frame without any overlapping. Do you know what it is? Can you please assist me? --{{User:RAP/sig}} 21:39, 7 November 2011 (EST)

I was wondering if it were OK to use one of your userboxes? It's because I'm a pretty big fan of beta things, too. Thank you for reading/answering my question. [[User:NessPeppyTails|NessPeppyTails]] ([[User talk:NessPeppyTails|talk]]) 22:27, 17 October 2012 (EDT)NessPeppyTails

You like beta stuff? Me too! :3 Did you see the beta for Luigi's Mansion? It seems a lot creepier than the final version... - {{User|Rookie}}

Thanks again for allowing me to use it! [[User:NessPeppyTails|NessPeppyTails]] ([[User talk:NessPeppyTails|talk]]) 21:31, 19 October 2012 (EDT)NessPeppyTails


Yes I have. Did you ever see the Beta video for Luigi's Mansion? If I knew how to post the beta song in the article, I would.
== RE: Monobook ==


I'm confused with the template. What do I do? Do I download the song first then put it in the template? I'm very confused @_@ - {{User|Rookie}}
Hey. Thanks for the reply, I'm still no good at all this skin stuff. I admit that I don't really know the difference between cascade style sheet and custom Javascript. Is it just that they are both able to do different things? Anyway, I'm really sorry to bother you with all this, but I just need some advice. But I've messed around with that CSS Tutorial you showed me in the chat, and I found some cool thing there. I even took a look at other user's monobooks here, including yours ^^. I had a whirl at importing your monobook.css, and I quite liked it. I didn't keep it, though. What I'll find handy for a skin is having the link to recent changes on the side bar to automatically go to;<br><tt><nowiki>http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&hidemyself=1</nowiki></tt><br>
Because that would be easier than always clicking the link "Hide my edits", because I never really need to see my edits, just stuff that other users are doing. So just one request, could you please write me a code to change that sidebar link? You don't have to, but that would be fantastic. Thanks!


Two more things. Does it have to be an .OGG file? I can only get it in .MP3 file. And how do I put it on the Beta Page? The same way I put it on the template? - {{User|Rookie}}
:Additionally, what is the difference between the /monobook and the /common ?


When I tried to upload the MP3 file, it said that it was rejected since it was an unwanted kind of file.
::It works perfectly, thanks! You're the best. But I do have ''one'' more question, I hope you don't mind. I have previously tried writing my /monobook.js, and it seemed to work when I previewed it before it was created, but it hasn't worked thereafter. Please take a look at [[User:YoshiKong/monobook.js]]. I wanna add a link to my work page on the links at the top of the page (between "talk" and "preferences"). Can you figure out where I went wrong? And is it able to be merged with my /common.js ?


Err...I know there is a video of the song on YouTube. It's called Luigi's Mansion: Beta Theme. I think you can convert it into an .OGG file. Like my new username? :3 - {{User|Gerakobits}}
:::Thanks so much! :D


I played through the game as well! And thanks for converting the file. I am looking for more beta pics. I found one of Luigi riding down a stair rail trying to get away from a ghost. - {{User|Gerakobits}}

== I meant to tell you this earlier... ==
Maybe you can do something like link each number somewhere different? like 2: Userpage, next 2: talk page, 5: Contributions, 7: Editcount? That would be cool! {{User:MegaDigga3/sig}} 19:03, 20 August 2013 (EDT)

== Ban/Block Notice Against Anthonydelgado1 ==
I just wanted to say thanks.
I've been doing a lot of writing and world-building over the past few years, delving deeper and deeper into the details of how everything manages to work the way it does. It adds a layer of plausability and depth that I wouldn't be able to work with otherwise, and I think it all started with your theory on Evanadium.
That kick-started my own detail work, realizing that the devil is in the details (so to speak), and I've gotten a lot of positive feedback regarding the level of detail I've put into my world-building.
So I just wanted to say thank you for sharing Evanadium those years ago. It seriously changed my life.
Thanks.

you act like I new that. Luigi456
Before I do anything else, I just like to know what a "ruby characters" template is. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:14, 7 November 2015 (EST)
:Hm, that's what I thought. Our wiki doesn't have an equivalent, but I've been suggested by an admin and [[MarioWiki:Japanese]] to use span class explain tags as in [[Big Lantern Ghost]]'s profile. I wasn't aware of the existence of a ruby tag, but I do think our wiki can benefit from a template of either the two since explain tags are usually a pain to write out anyway. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:29, 7 November 2015 (EST)


::あのう、as for that ruby character template, I [http://www.mariowiki.com/MarioWiki_talk:Japanese#furigana_template suggested] the idea on 13 February 2016 but Walkazo didn't reply me even though she [http://www.mariowiki.com/Talk:Main_Page#statistics was responding] on something else later so I guess she personally didn't approve of the idea. It seems to be because many pages have already started to use <code>&lt;span class=explain title="..."&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</code> so switching to a new template will be huge work and leaving two ways of introducing furigana will be messy and look inconsistent.

where furigana will make the left and right columns out of sync? {{User:A gossip-loving Toad/sig}}  04:47, 7 May 2016 (EDT)
: This works, but there is a side problem: the wiki has a rather small font size, namely 12.7px for text and 12px for references. On a computer, this means that furigana will be about 6 or 7 px. An obvious solution is to have larger fonts or even special divs for game dialogues, like the one on [https://tcrf.net/Paper_Mario:_The_Thousand-Year_Door/Unused_Text The Cutting Room Floor], but I'm wondering what to do to the foreign name boxes on this wiki. Perhaps as
<blockquote>
{{foreign names
|Jap=ほうき星の天文台 (ほうきぼしのてんもんだい)
|JapR=Hōkiboshi no Tenmondai
|JapM=Comet Observatory
}}</blockquote>
:(This is the format used on the Japanese Wikipedia)? I'd like to see furigana when presenting original game text and dialogs, though. I have already used it [http://www.mariowiki.com/Comet_Observatory#cite_note-smg1rosalina-3 once]. {{User:A gossip-loving Toad/sig}}  05:08, 14 May 2016 (EDT)
 
== MW:JAPANESE ==
 
Some things MW:JAPANESE has not yet covered:
#Should <ruby style="font-size:130%">鳳凰<rt>ほうおう</rt></ruby> be romanized as ''Hōō'' or ''Hō'ō'' ? Wiktionary does not include the apostrophe but I [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Cractyl&type=revision&diff=2019455&oldid=1974941 added it] since I think it looks better when added.
#Sometimes a word is written in katakana but really from hiragana. Do you think they should still be romanized using the rules for hiragana? For example, "[[Koops|ノコタロウ]]" is derived from <ruby style="font-size:130%">太郎<rt>たろう</rt></ruby>. I suppose that should still be romanized as "Nokotarō" instead of "Nokotarou"?

Status Problem[edit]

Okay, Fawfulfury65 told me that I could not keep my status, but Sonic & Boofan, has like 3 subpages about in game models! DKPetey99DKPetey99TCE 16:28, 18 May 2011 (EDT)

No FF65 is going to delete it, I was asking why statuses aren't allowed but in-game models as sub-pages are! If you can't help me, forget it! DKPetey99DKPetey99TCE 16:37, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
And I didn't know I was ignoring a sysop, she said she'll delete it, so I'm was waiting for that! DKPetey99DKPetey99TCE 16:40, 18 May 2011 (EDT)

<gallery> tags[edit]

Hello 22fiftyseven. Is there a way to change how the <gallery> tags function - like say change it's default function from creating 4 in a row into 5 in a row? It would be beneficial to very long gallery pages, saves some of our time, and it actually fits under the resolution of 1024 X 768; even if some of the galleries like Gallery:Super Mario 64, and Gallery:Super Mario Galaxy 2 already have that "manually" functioned with <gallery perrow=5>. I mean come on, you guys somehow forced those galleries to place itself in the center/middle of the page without even using the <center> tags - which I find surprising! Please respond back. --RAP.pngRAP... 16:28, 22 July 2011 (EDT)

Imageframe(?) tag?[edit]

Hello 2257, I recall seeing some kind of imageframe tag being used in one of the articles in MarioWiki and I can't seem to figure out where it is, or what the name is. I need to know what is the name of the tag, and how it functions. As far as my knowledge goes, it allows you to display two images in a frame without any overlapping. Do you know what it is? Can you please assist me? --RAP.pngRAP... 21:39, 7 November 2011 (EST)

Hey![edit]

Could the Romanian language be added to MarioWiki:Babel? This is because I am a native speaker of this language. Please, answer me! Thanks! --File:Super-Radio.gifSuper Radio

And, um, yeah... Wayoshi's idea should be OK, I mean, to make other Super Mario Wikis with other languages! (I can contribute!) --File:Super-Radio.gifSuper Radio

Thanks![edit]

OK, thanks a lot for the answer. --File:Super-Radio.gifSuper Radio

And another question:[edit]

Could the Romanian language be added at the foreign table (or how is this named), please? --File:Super-Radio.gifSuper Radio

NOE,NOA....[edit]

Hello,

As the title says, what do the NOA and NOE mean ?

For example:

Has it any relation with Northern America.....?

RE: Monobook[edit]

Hey. Thanks for the reply, I'm still no good at all this skin stuff. I admit that I don't really know the difference between cascade style sheet and custom Javascript. Is it just that they are both able to do different things? Anyway, I'm really sorry to bother you with all this, but I just need some advice. But I've messed around with that CSS Tutorial you showed me in the chat, and I found some cool thing there. I even took a look at other user's monobooks here, including yours ^^. I had a whirl at importing your monobook.css, and I quite liked it. I didn't keep it, though. What I'll find handy for a skin is having the link to recent changes on the side bar to automatically go to;
http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&hidemyself=1
Because that would be easier than always clicking the link "Hide my edits", because I never really need to see my edits, just stuff that other users are doing. So just one request, could you please write me a code to change that sidebar link? You don't have to, but that would be fantastic. Thanks!

Additionally, what is the difference between the /monobook and the /common ?
It works perfectly, thanks! You're the best. But I do have one more question, I hope you don't mind. I have previously tried writing my /monobook.js, and it seemed to work when I previewed it before it was created, but it hasn't worked thereafter. Please take a look at User:YoshiKong/monobook.js. I wanna add a link to my work page on the links at the top of the page (between "talk" and "preferences"). Can you figure out where I went wrong? And is it able to be merged with my /common.js ?
Thanks so much! :D

Hey, I don't know if you're still around or not...[edit]

I just wanted to say thanks. I've been doing a lot of writing and world-building over the past few years, delving deeper and deeper into the details of how everything manages to work the way it does. It adds a layer of plausability and depth that I wouldn't be able to work with otherwise, and I think it all started with your theory on Evanadium. That kick-started my own detail work, realizing that the devil is in the details (so to speak), and I've gotten a lot of positive feedback regarding the level of detail I've put into my world-building. So I just wanted to say thank you for sharing Evanadium those years ago. It seriously changed my life. Thanks. YourBuddyBill (talk) 10:44, 10 August 2014 (EDT)

Re:Rub characters template[edit]

Before I do anything else, I just like to know what a "ruby characters" template is. Mario (Santa)'s map icon from Mario Kart Tour Mario-HOHO! (Talk / Stalk) 14:14, 7 November 2015 (EST)

Hm, that's what I thought. Our wiki doesn't have an equivalent, but I've been suggested by an admin and MarioWiki:Japanese to use span class explain tags as in Big Lantern Ghost's profile. I wasn't aware of the existence of a ruby tag, but I do think our wiki can benefit from a template of either the two since explain tags are usually a pain to write out anyway. Mario (Santa)'s map icon from Mario Kart Tour Mario-HOHO! (Talk / Stalk) 14:29, 7 November 2015 (EST)
あのう、as for that ruby character template, I suggested the idea on 13 February 2016 but Walkazo didn't reply me even though she was responding on something else later so I guess she personally didn't approve of the idea. It seems to be because many pages have already started to use <span class=explain title="..."></span> so switching to a new template will be huge work and leaving two ways of introducing furigana will be messy and look inconsistent.

furigana revisited[edit]

How are you going to handle cases like

こうげきりょくは『1』 ぼうぎょりょくは『0』よ

Seems there's nothing special here.

where furigana will make the left and right columns out of sync? A gossip-loving Toad (Talk) 04:47, 7 May 2016 (EDT)

This works, but there is a side problem: the wiki has a rather small font size, namely 12.7px for text and 12px for references. On a computer, this means that furigana will be about 6 or 7 px. An obvious solution is to have larger fonts or even special divs for game dialogues, like the one on The Cutting Room Floor, but I'm wondering what to do to the foreign name boxes on this wiki. Perhaps as
Language Name Meaning Notes
Japanese ほうき星の天文台 (ほうきぼしのてんもんだい)
Hōkiboshi no Tenmondai
Comet Observatory
(This is the format used on the Japanese Wikipedia)? I'd like to see furigana when presenting original game text and dialogs, though. I have already used it once. A gossip-loving Toad (Talk) 05:08, 14 May 2016 (EDT)

MW:JAPANESE[edit]

Some things MW:JAPANESE has not yet covered:

  1. Should 鳳凰ほうおう be romanized as Hōō or Hō'ō ? Wiktionary does not include the apostrophe but I added it since I think it looks better when added.
  2. Sometimes a word is written in katakana but really from hiragana. Do you think they should still be romanized using the rules for hiragana? For example, "ノコタロウ" is derived from 太郎たろう. I suppose that should still be romanized as "Nokotarō" instead of "Nokotarou"?
