Nominating for FA

This looks like it's ready for FA status, but I already nominated 3 articles. I will have a discussion to see if this is actually ready. KS3 (talk · contribute) 16:36, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

I am really proud of this article, I will nominate it :) --™ The 'Shroom 18:52, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Redesign

I think it would be better if it will look like that:

Recipe	Sell Price	Ingredients	Effect
Apple Pie	10 coins	Apple + Cake Mix	Recovers 5 HP and 15 FP

I'm afraid that someone will don't like it, so reply please.SWFlash

This Looks So Much Better! I think this should have been done before it was featured! It is so GOOD! HAPPY EASTER!

Thanks! SWFlash

FA

Featured article?? This page has about 100 mistakes. A LOT missing combinations, a handful recipes that don't work... No mention of what items a mystery can make...

It would help if you pointed out which combinations don't work and which are missing. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 12:24, 13 October 2016 (EDT)

Well here's a list from GameFAQs [1]. I'm not going to sort through that list to see what's missing or not. Ray Trace^(T|C) 13:56, 13 October 2016 (EDT)

http://shrines.rpgclassics.com/n64/papermario/cooking.shtml - This page I believe is almost 100% accurate? (Except for a handful of typos, like the 3-item recipe or "Strange Fruit + Dried Leaf".) There is one small omission on that page; the list of items that can be made from a mystery is missing 5 entries: Sleepy Sheep, Dizzy Dial, Bland Meal, Big Cookie, and Kookie Cookie. If you get an item from cooking a Mystery it does count toward your recipe count on the chalkboard, but the Cake she makes you when you give her the Frying Pan does not. It says that Mushroom + Goomnut and Mushroom + Strange Leaf make Life Shrooms, which is does on JP, but it makes Volt Shrooms on English, which is what you have. It does say that Koopa Leaf + Mushroom makes a Volt Shroom, which is correct for English, but again it makes a Life Shroom on JP. I don't know if that version difference is within the article's scope. When I saw this page had more recipes listed for Volt Shroom that didn't involve Dried Fruit it gave me false hope of avoiding the fairly rough RNG required to get one. (I suppose there's a chance there were further changes from US to PAL that I don't know about and could be causing confusion about what makes what?) Anyway if you compare your article to that page you'll find your page has a lot of omissions and erroneous additions... Last thing, you need the Cookbook to cook just a Whacka's Bump or just a Strange Leaf; you'll get mistakes even though they're only 1-item recipes, if you don't have it. 142.163.88.194 16:32, 27 October 2016 (EDT) (I'm the same guy as 47.55.57.164 was.)

It'd be a big help if you could make any changes as you see fit. You're free to edit this articles and correct any mistakes that you've spotted, with or without an account. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 17:12, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

Busy!!! And the potential for version differences make it tough to be sure the information you're finding is correct... 142.163.88.194 17:17, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

OK to get the ball rolling I guess I updated Bland Meal. You might want to move the recipes around b/c I didn't pay much attention trying to keep the order consistent with how you'd written them before. I went ahead and put the Mystery at the bottom but none of the other Mystery items have a Mystery in it and the article text probably needs mention how it's about 50% chance of a Mystery, and then about 50% chance to get one of the other items it could make... 142.163.88.194 17:52, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

Dammit I just tested mushroom+dried pasta and get Bland Meal even though no site has that combination listed... gah (aaand Strange Leaf + Dried Fruit is also missing... maybe I'll convince somebody to be really thorough and get a complete list...) 142.163.88.194 18:00, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

OK this is a 100% complete, accurate list, except for not mentioning which items a Mystery can make: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XODLYYrSUlRk26gGv4qrPKOi8Sjiw7onhzhu5mu83P8/ 142.163.88.194 23:01, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

And this is a complete list (aside from Mystery; again for that list combine the rpgshrine list with the 5 additions I mentioned above), not compiled by me, of all errors and omissions: http://pastebin.com/6SVQQQes 142.163.88.194 23:15, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

Update

OK maybe it's a bit ugly but the page I think is complete and accurate now, but you could go through that google doc and verify it if you think you've got the time for that. I decided to just * all the items you could make with a mystery b/c the last time I tried to add mysteries into the table proper an random ip came along and backspaced it whelp nevermind I guess. Anyway you'll probably want to pretty the page up now that I'm done with it.... 47.54.64.47 01:07, 20 September 2017 (EDT)

Boiled Egg

I've cooked so many mysteries you wouldn't believe, and I've never seen a boiled egg. Fried Egg, yes, Egg Missile, yes. I think this person / these people might be confusing the boiled egg for these items. It's possible also it could be a version difference, as there are some involving recipes. I'd like video proof tbh of somebody opening a boiled egg from a mystery (and say which version you're on) because it would be news to me.

And I guess I just want to add that the % chance of cooking individual items was just guessed at and nobody actually knows. 50% mistake, and then divide the other 50% by the number of possible items. If boiled egg is a real recipe from a Mystery, then that guess has to change. Maybe just say about a 50% chance of cooking a mystery and leave it at that.

Alright the boiled egg can be cooked from a mystery on at least the US version. I might just have never gotten it on JP, or I forgot (most likely?), or I guess it could be a version difference.
