I don't mind if you help participate in any my projects without contacting me first as long as you're not actively edit-sniping me as I write articles or add uploaded images to tables as I'm uploading them, because this creates edit conflicts and makes it even harder for me to save edits on articles I'm working on. However, it's generally still polite to ask first if it's ok to assist in my projects. The answer will be yes unless otherwise stated. I just don't want anyone edit-snipe police for me should someone else create articles out of red links that I was planning to create or create tables of items that I was about to create. Any help is very appreciated. | |||

:The first sentence of the article actively tells readers what's in the game, as I feel like that's good enough information to inform readers of what the game pack contains.

If you can try to get more ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' model animations could you do the rest of the losing animations and win animations and more for the [[Gallery:Dr. Mario World models|gallery]]?

== A simple question == | |||
One thing you may or may have not noticed recently, is that I have been uploading many image/gifs from the PC/MS-DOS versions of Mario is Missing, Mario's Time Machine, and Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters. Part of why I have been doing that is because all of the games I just mentioned, I own on CD-ROM. I play them on DOSBox, take screenshots of them, and then remove the backgrounds to rip the sprites. Are there any particular sprites from Mario is Missing, Mario's Time Machine, and Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters that you would like ripped? Also, other than taking screenshots and then removing the backgrounds, is there any other way to rip sprites from those games? | |||
{{User|MarioIsMissingDos}} 3:52, 21 September 2020 (EST) | |||
:'Allo. I haven't really played the games but I think you should rip...well every named object in the game, from characters to Mushrooms to Blocks. I think it would be so great to have expanded coverage on the edutainment games on the wiki in general so images are a great place to start. Maybe one day they'll be featured articles lol. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 17:24, September 21, 2020 (EDT) | |||
I have just finished playing through all of the CD-ROM version of Mario is Missing for the third time, so prepare for me to nuke the wiki with images and gifs from that game. Like this Bowser. [[File:BowserWalksMIMDOS.gif|400px|]] | |||

:The profile one that shows how ineptly his shell is drawn is the best. But I also like the derpy talking Bowser too. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 17:54, September 27, 2020 (EDT) | |||
The funny part about that, is that because the PC version of Mario is Missing was the first Mario game I ever played, as well as being my introduction to the franchise, I used to think that was how Bowser's shell was meant to be, and because of that, I thought all the other sprites of Bowser were the off-model ones. Anyway, Iggy Koopa is here with all of his clones. [[File:MIM Iggy.gif|400px|]] [[File:IggyJumpsMS-DOS.gif|100px|]] [[File:IckyIggySmall.png|100px|]] [[File:IckyIggyMS-DOS.png|100px|]] | |||
{{User|MarioIsMissingDos}} 6:18, 27 September 2020 (EST) | |||
:Oh really? Lmao, you started off on the right foot for Mario franchise entry lmao. Also, Icky Iggy is a great nickname for Iggy that I wish was used in official games. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 18:26, September 27, 2020 (EDT) | |||
I still have the CD-ROM that I first played the game off of all those years ago. It still works too, and is what I played the game on to screenshot the sprites. After I played Mario is Missing, I then moved on to the PC version of Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters, and after that, I played Mario's Time Machine on PC before moving over to the mainline games. Here are some more sprites from the PC release of Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters, and the PC version of Mario's Early Years: Preschool Fun, as well as the PC version of Mario's Time Machine. [[File:MarioEarlyYearsFunLetters.png|100px|]] [[File:MarioFunWithLettersDos.png|100px|]] [[File:MarioWalkEarlyYearsDos.gif|100px|]] [[File:MarioPlayschoolFunDosSide.png|100px|]] [[File:IckyIggyWalkMS-DOS.gif|100px|]] [[File:LuigiMadFunWithLetters.gif|100px|]] [[File:PeachEarlyYearsSmall.png|100px|]] [[File:KoopaTroopTimeMachineMSDOS.gif|100px|]] [[File:MarioTimeMachineWalkMS-DOS.gif|100px|]] [[File:LudwigVonKoopaInMario'sTimeMachinePCJump.gif|100px|]] [[File:LudwigVonKoopaInMario'sTimeMachinePC.gif|100px|]] [[File:LudwigVonKoopaInMario'sTimeMachinePCSheet.png|400px|]] All of those Ludwig sprites were from the PC version of Mario's Time Machine. They were not used in-game, but they were a bitmap file on the CD-ROM called "MUSEUM/LUDW.BMP". I found them on accident while poking around on the CD-ROM, so I decided to make them into gifs. | |||
{{User|MarioIsMissingDos}} 7:54, 27 September 2020 (EST) | |||
So, do you think those Ludwig sprites should have been used in the PC version of Mario's Time Machine, or do you think that it's a good thing they are unused? Also, what do you think those Ludwig sprites were going to be used for? | |||

== We need your help. ^^ == | |||
Hi, I'm a Big Fan of Dr. Mario World and I see than we still miss a couples of Doctors Animations as GIF. Would you accept to help us too added the rest of the bunch, specially the winning animations that would be very nice to have to. I know you are very busy, so I know it will take you a lot of effort to get back on this, but the good new is they doesn't give us New Doctors and New Assistants for this Month, so that mean Dr. Mario World is about to eventually close and we want to bring every beautiful things of this game they give us, before they shutdown the servers forever. | |||
Long life to Dr. Baby Luigi and eventually Dr. Birdo, I hope! :P | |||

Calling something "symbolic" is hardly a radical statement of opinion. It is obviously symbolic if two long-time rival companies start using each others' characters for the first time. An opinionated, non-subjective word would be calling the moment something like "important" or "positive." Nevertheless, I deleted the word.

While it would seem unlikely, I want to point out the character difference in question is the same that differentiates Goomba and Galoomba, and considering 3DW brought Galoombas themselves back (among other things), it ''is'' possible that they based the new enemy off an obscure thing from years before. Also, not only "just boulders," similar small-armed-Geodude-esque body stucture. Basically, I feel the similar name needs mentioned ''somewhere'', at least in the Niol box.

I | First of all, I want to give a big thank you to you and others for supporting my proposal, much appreciated. I saw you said you're up for cutting ties to ZW altogether, and this surprise me because you're a patroller (i.e. a staff member). Are you allowed to say that? I also want the interwikis changed, and I like how you said the proposal is a good start toward that (and it was brave of you to speak out about it), but a direct proposal on that... there would need to be some solid justification for doing that (though I think ZW on Fandom for 3 years is already a reason for that). Seeing as we're in NIWA, ZW would inevitably take priority. | ||
They | Reminds of something slightly related: I have been working on various wikis over the past few years, some examples including Banjo, Conker, Crash, Spyro, Zelda, Final Fantasy, and so forth. Me and a few other editors, who I'm very grateful for all of their help. They're all part of a link exchange named Gaming Wiki Network. To me the examples I listed have comparable aspects to Mario in some way or another. I realized that all this time I was more concerned about Mario Wiki than NIWA (re: Zelda situation, that is). Of course, since I can't do anything about it, I decided to build up link exchange of wikis in the style of Mario Wiki, at least in some way or another (aside from the affiliates). It's ironic that Zelda Wiki was the original founder of NIWA (they went to Bulbapedia & then both went to Mario Wiki) yet they were the first to sell out & haven't made any plan in the past few years, even if they have ZD Wiki and Triforce Wiki as alternative options. A really big thing. Kirby is doing well on WiKirby, Star Fox is doing good on Lylat Wiki. The current biggest issue is Metroid, although I have barely played it and don't have much knowledge regarding it. | ||
Nintendo (general), SSB, and Pokemon wikis in style of Mario Wiki (with a bit of classic 00s Wikia taste to reflect them being hosted on Miraheze) are three sideprojects that I've started very recently, and I've been keeping them separate from Gaming Wiki Network, as they're more personal endeavors (and Triforce Wiki being hosted by Grifkuba, although it was not met with much backlash afaik, still was a big move of them). Even if this is very uphill, I am very willing to play the long game and have long-term goals. I love wiki editing, and the Mario Wiki format has proven to work on several different wikis, and I'd like to see it in action on Nintendo, SSB, and Pokemon-style wikis. | |||
This is more a discussion that one would have in DMs or on Discord, but what I typed above is relatively common knowledge at this point & your talk page is the only way I could contact you about this.

:Eh, I'm allowed to say any personal opinions, staff member or not, I don't think I should be castigated for expressing my views openly. I don't make it a secret either that I despise what ZeldaWiki does and I don't think anyone should be silenced simply because of that. However, I'd say it's how you express those opinions that matters, timing and wording is everything, so I think when I expressed my disdain towards the whole direction ZeldaWiki took, it was appropriate. I know that giant overhauls won't happen, hence why we wouldn't cut ties with ZeldaWiki any time soon, but small, gradual steps such as acknowledging the presence of other wikis is a good start in making sure ZeldaWiki becomes redundant AND a worse place for Zelda information so we naturally adapt to the fledgling wikis while removing the old. I don't think I can help out further than MarioWiki, however.

== Mario-related content in Zelda == | |||
Remember my ZD Wiki/Triforce Wiki proposal that successfully passed? I think my next step is retroactively applying me, Doc, and LTL's research on ''Mario''-related subjects on Triforce Wiki back into the Super Mario Wiki. See the [[Thwomp]] and [[Thwimp]] articles as examples. These are ''Mario'' subjects, just in a different series, so I think describing them in full is okay, especially so readers can more easily compare. Then there's Spiked Thwomp, Mega Thwomp, and Stone Elevator having their own articles on a Zelda-related wiki, such as Triforce Wiki.

:I can most certainly confirm red and green textures do exist, but they're virtually identical to Spear Guys (they're in the same file, heyho.bch.z, most Shy Guys in the game are contained in there with specific variants having their own animation files, and the only way you can tell they're intended for Dancing Spear Guys is that the model file itself is called yariyari_body01a rather than yariho_body01a). I think the wiki is also correct about the animations too, but what animations exactly are unused? Only way you can tell is if you watch them in-game and then watch the animation files (which are stored in heyho_yariyari.bch.z, contained of only animation files intended to be combined with heyho.bch.z).

I just wanted to let you know that I have [[Super Mario Galaxy#Reception|finally done so]], as well as added a section beneath on narrative themes. I hope it's alright, and sorry about the wait. I had started graduate studies last fall and I didn't want to engage in major projects on the wiki until I had time to spare. Let me know what you think! I've never written about reviews or awards before, but hopefully I focused on the right stuff. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 22:45, January 10, 2024 (EST) | |||
:Hey there, I really like your work on the reception section, probably better than I would have wrote, lmao. Good job! And no worries about the wait, I'm a CCA who works 6 days a week with over 8 hour work days so I had something to keep myself occupied. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 01:25, January 11, 2024 (EST) | |||

== Mario Kart Wii course maps == | |||
Hi, I'm of the understanding that the minimaps in MKW are actually models? If that is indeed the case, would it be possible to process the images of them to more resemble their in-game appearance in size and outline structure? Most of my worry about this working comes from the battle mode maps, since they tend to be colored and have icons all over them in gameplay, making the lesser lines on them not apparent. I figured I could do it for the racing ones without too much trouble, but I want to know if it's even feasible. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 00:32, May 23, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:You are correct that they are models, they literally do look [[:File:Moonview Highway MKWii layout.png|exactly like this]]. However, I think the outline and transparency structure is added as a post-effect that the game does (similar to how it tints the UI on the screen, which is grayscale) (also not sure about how the battle mode maps are tinted, might be the same I haven't attempted to do a battle course map), so I don't think it's possible to modify so it's exactly like the game. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 00:48, May 23, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::I know the game is heavy on post-processing, though the outline and transparency effects are simple enough they can probably be accurately added in gimp or paint.net. - though the overpasses worry me a bit, as do the weirdness with the battle mode ones. (On the note of MKW's odd graphical implementation, I know the car icons for the TT records are sprites, but how are the actual "vehicle select" icons with the different colors for each character handled? And for that matter, are the Mii icons just flattened models or something?) [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 01:06, May 23, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:::Vehicle select icons iirc are live-rendered generated models similar to Miis (like the Mii battle portrait in Smash Bros. games). Not sure how the 2D Mii icons are handled, probably rendered by the game too. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 01:42, May 23, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::I have managed to alter the uploaded map images to look mostly as they do in-game for a consistent resolution, though I nixed the transparency (which can be easily added if needed, all except Galaxy Colosseum use 75-point transparency on a normal blend) and did not add the start/finish lines, though they too can be added if deemed necessary. The only issues that exist are a very marginal line thickness thing, but other than that, I think they're pretty on-point. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:49, June 24, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:::Crazy idea but if these are models, then svg should probably be a more accurate representation of these maps (vertices are stand in for points). Buuut it's not a requirement at all to do this, I just am giving food for thought. {{User:Mario/sig}} 19:35, August 30, 2024 (EDT) | |||

I got raked over the coals for calling someone's work "bad"; this is a few magnitudes worse. For the record, you're describing [[Special:Diff/4248848|the same user's work]]. I'd suggest you take your own advice [[Talk:Mario Kart Wii#Comments 2|here]]:<blockquote>ultimately, we're not here to shit on each other but to improve browsing experience for users.</blockquote>otherwise you look irresponsible with the feedback you're giving. And no, the fact that I was addressing Doc directly while you did it indirectly doesn't clear you of the offense. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 06:22, October 25, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:The shit you are commenting about and trying to rake me over the coals over isn't even the one I am specifically talking about, I was talking about the generic wikitable class tables that use only shades of gray. Try to ask me clarification next time before attempting to start shit over nothing. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 03:05, October 27, 2024 (EDT) | |||

:::I did suggest my sister to clarify this but I certainly didn't mean it in this tone. {{User:Mario/sig}} 11:37, October 27, 2024 (EDT) | |||
For what it's worth as the person being spoken of, I understood what you meant just fine.

I got a job as a postal carrier so that means my free time will tank.
Questions
I'll be more than happy to answer any questions related to homebrew/riivolution hacking (includes Mario Kart Wii, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and general sound replacements). I get a ton of those regularly, so don't be shy to ask me if you have problems or if you're interested in installing homebrew on your Wii, as well as making model replacements. If you're also interested in porting assets for Source, as in Left 4 Dead 2, Team Fortress 2, or Gmod, I can help there too. Policy on projects
I don't mind if you help participate in any my projects without contacting me first as long as you're not actively edit-sniping me as I write articles or add uploaded images to tables as I'm uploading them, because this creates edit conflicts and makes it even harder for me to save edits on articles I'm working on. However, it's generally still polite to ask first if it's ok to assist in my projects. The answer will be yes unless otherwise stated. I just don't want anyone edit-snipe police for me should someone else create articles out of red links that I was planning to create or create tables of items that I was about to create. Any help is very appreciated. Rules

Badges[edit](It's gonna take a bit to get used to your new name on the wiki.) The non-Mario badges you uploaded by mistake, think you can find a place for them and remainders on other wikis? 01:18, September 15, 2020 (EDT)
Congratulations![edit]To celebrate your shiny new username and the beginning of a new archive, enjoy this complementary Wario: -- Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 11:05, September 15, 2020 (EDT) Super Mario Galaxy 2 not included in SM3DAS[edit]Why shouldn't we mention that SMG2 isn't included? If it's going to be removed, at least give a better reason than just "unnecessary because it is not the best way to describe why.--TheGreenBeetle (talk) 12:45, September 19, 2020 (EDT)
I see...[edit]So, are you trying to raise Super Mario Kart to featured status now? --DarkNight 23:58, September 19, 2020 (EDT) I am thinking Dr. Mario World animations...[edit]If you can try to get more Dr. Mario World model animations could you do the rest of the losing animations and win animations and more for the gallery? I know you told me last time, but I have been checking all day. I split the models into a gallery of the models, so people could find them easier there instead of waiting in the other gallery. (T) 11:29, September 20, 2020 (EDT)
A simple question[edit]One thing you may or may have not noticed recently, is that I have been uploading many image/gifs from the PC/MS-DOS versions of Mario is Missing, Mario's Time Machine, and Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters. Part of why I have been doing that is because all of the games I just mentioned, I own on CD-ROM. I play them on DOSBox, take screenshots of them, and then remove the backgrounds to rip the sprites. Are there any particular sprites from Mario is Missing, Mario's Time Machine, and Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters that you would like ripped? Also, other than taking screenshots and then removing the backgrounds, is there any other way to rip sprites from those games? MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 3:52, 21 September 2020 (EST)
I have just finished playing through all of the CD-ROM version of Mario is Missing for the third time, so prepare for me to nuke the wiki with images and gifs from that game. Like this Bowser. MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 4:49, 27 September 2020 (EST) For uploading that gif, among others? MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 5:05, 27 September 2020 (EST)
Like this: MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 5:26, 27 September 2020 (EST) Which one of those overweight turtles is your favorite? Also, here are some more. MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 5:45, 27 September 2020 (EST)
The funny part about that, is that because the PC version of Mario is Missing was the first Mario game I ever played, as well as being my introduction to the franchise, I used to think that was how Bowser's shell was meant to be, and because of that, I thought all the other sprites of Bowser were the off-model ones. Anyway, Iggy Koopa is here with all of his clones. MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 6:18, 27 September 2020 (EST)
I still have the CD-ROM that I first played the game off of all those years ago. It still works too, and is what I played the game on to screenshot the sprites. After I played Mario is Missing, I then moved on to the PC version of Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters, and after that, I played Mario's Time Machine on PC before moving over to the mainline games. Here are some more sprites from the PC release of Mario's Early Years: Fun With Letters, and the PC version of Mario's Early Years: Preschool Fun, as well as the PC version of Mario's Time Machine. All of those Ludwig sprites were from the PC version of Mario's Time Machine. They were not used in-game, but they were a bitmap file on the CD-ROM called "MUSEUM/LUDW.BMP". I found them on accident while poking around on the CD-ROM, so I decided to make them into gifs. MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 7:54, 27 September 2020 (EST) So, do you think those Ludwig sprites should have been used in the PC version of Mario's Time Machine, or do you think that it's a good thing they are unused? Also, what do you think those Ludwig sprites were going to be used for? MarioIsMissingDos (talk) 7:02, 28 September 2020 (EST) We need your help. ^^[edit]Hi, I'm a Big Fan of Dr. Mario World and I see than we still miss a couples of Doctors Animations as GIF. Would you accept to help us too added the rest of the bunch, specially the winning animations that would be very nice to have to. I know you are very busy, so I know it will take you a lot of effort to get back on this, but the good new is they doesn't give us New Doctors and New Assistants for this Month, so that mean Dr. Mario World is about to eventually close and we want to bring every beautiful things of this game they give us, before they shutdown the servers forever. Long life to Dr. Baby Luigi and eventually Dr. Birdo, I hope! :P Just for you know, I'm not very connected to MarioWiki.com, so if you want to contact me directly on dominicouimet@hotmail.com I will answer you as soon as I see your message and I check them almost everyday. ^^ Ouimet 1:30, November 20, 2020 (ET)

It is obviously symbolic if two long-time rival companies start using each others' characters for the first time.

I am prepared to continue trying to improve this article, barring a better explanation of why trying to make the quality of the writing better is somehow wrong.

"Discussion is required"[edit]Actually, when the only official name known (or in this case, properly cited) in a name in another language, per MarioWiki:Naming we always use an official non-English name over a conjectural name. Unless the Swim Ring Goombas have been officially and specifically named Goombas in English, then we wuold use the official JPN name. Doomhiker (talk) 15:54, March 5, 2021 (EST)

Mrs. Thwomp[edit]While it would seem unlikely, I want to point out the character difference in question is the same that differentiates Goomba and Galoomba, and considering 3DW brought Galoombas themselves back (among other things), it is possible that they based the new enemy off an obscure thing from years before. Also, not only "just boulders," similar small-armed-Geodude-esque body stucture. Basically, I feel the similar name needs mentioned somewhere, at least in the Niol box.

Re:Lifts[edit]Well, what we've been doing so far is use the name from the Japanese Enyclopedia if there's nothing else readily available, though the rotating lift in question is actually the "Swing Lift"; if you look on page 69 of English Encyclopedia, you can see that they refer to the rotating lifts and rail lifts as swinging platform and rail platform, and the former groups the brown Single Swing Lift and grey Triple Swing Lift together (the latter should be Pulley Lift).

Toad's talk page[edit]Hi, could you protect Talk:Toad/Archive 1? I forgot to notify an administrator about protecting this. WildWario (talk) 22:57, December 13, 2021 (EST) hi[edit]First of all, I want to give a big thank you to you and others for supporting my proposal, much appreciated. I saw you said you're up for cutting ties to ZW altogether, and this surprise me because you're a patroller (i.e. a staff member). Are you allowed to say that? I also want the interwikis changed, and I like how you said the proposal is a good start toward that (and it was brave of you to speak out about it), but a direct proposal on that... there would need to be some solid justification for doing that (though I think ZW on Fandom for 3 years is already a reason for that). Seeing as we're in NIWA, ZW would inevitably take priority. Reminds of something slightly related: I have been working on various wikis over the past few years, some examples including Banjo, Conker, Crash, Spyro, Zelda, Final Fantasy, and so forth. Me and a few other editors, who I'm very grateful for all of their help. They're all part of a link exchange named Gaming Wiki Network. To me the examples I listed have comparable aspects to Mario in some way or another. I realized that all this time I was more concerned about Mario Wiki than NIWA (re: Zelda situation, that is). Of course, since I can't do anything about it, I decided to build up link exchange of wikis in the style of Mario Wiki, at least in some way or another (aside from the affiliates). It's ironic that Zelda Wiki was the original founder of NIWA (they went to Bulbapedia & then both went to Mario Wiki) yet they were the first to sell out & haven't made any plan in the past few years, even if they have ZD Wiki and Triforce Wiki as alternative options. A really big thing. Kirby is doing well on WiKirby, Star Fox is doing good on Lylat Wiki. The current biggest issue is Metroid, although I have barely played it and don't have much knowledge regarding it. Nintendo (general), SSB, and Pokemon wikis in style of Mario Wiki (with a bit of classic 00s Wikia taste to reflect them being hosted on Miraheze) are three sideprojects that I've started very recently, and I've been keeping them separate from Gaming Wiki Network, as they're more personal endeavors (and Triforce Wiki being hosted by Grifkuba, although it was not met with much backlash afaik, still was a big move of them). Even if this is very uphill, I am very willing to play the long game and have long-term goals. I love wiki editing, and the Mario Wiki format has proven to work on several different wikis, and I'd like to see it in action on Nintendo, SSB, and Pokemon-style wikis. This is more a discussion that one would have in DMs or on Discord, but what I typed above is relatively common knowledge at this point & your talk page is the only way I could contact you about this.

These are Mario subjects, just in a different series, so I think describing them in full is okay, especially so readers can more easily compare. Then there's Spiked Thwomp, Mega Thwomp, and Stone Elevator having their own articles on a Zelda-related wiki, such as Triforce Wiki. Results May Vary (talk) 17:57, April 12, 2022 (EDT)

The "star gate" objects that open with the flowers in Super Mario RPG's Star Hill are referred to as「星のトビラ」(hoshi no tobira).

I have a mission for you.[edit]So, you remember Mr. Sloth, the hardworking shop owner in a certain district of Toad Town? He's commonly seen as an exemplary figure, but I figured this guy might be a prime collaborator with Bowser's Koopa Kartel. He runs a candy store as a money-laundering front to conceal business with illegal garlic sold to depraved boors. Well, Wario is a frequent shopper of said candy store. Since you're a spy with expertise in dealing with fat moustachioed zealots, I would be delighted to collaborate with you on my endeavours. Your task is to stealthily pay Wario a visit to his house and retrieve any evidence of Mr. Sloth's business. The challenge is to avoid as much as you can any Wario blood-shedding, tempting as it may be; I can't let this operation come to light, my reputation is at stake. Pay sits around 2000 frog coins, but it can be negotiable. Are you up to it? -- KOOPA CON CARNE 09:08, May 7, 2022 (EDT)
You think I forgot about you?[edit]Of course I haven't. If you're afraid your talk page doesn't have enough Warios Then have some more. Do I need to mention to you that these Warios are free?

Links[edit]I'm trying to link "Star (Mario Party series)" so that the link says "Stars" in gold. How do I do that? Dwhitney (talk) 15:29, August 18, 2022 (EDT)
Categories[edit]Hi! Thanks for correcting me when I've been reverting the categories. I wonder if there should be further discussion on the phrasing of "The Mario franchise and related series" and only keep it if there is an article with a related series. Thanks for helping me out with this and have a good day :) Sdman213 (talk) 18:38, August 23, 2022 (EDT)
Request to move Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart Arcade GP) back to Castle Wall, and Bowser's Factory to Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart Arcade GP)[edit]My proposal to split AGP1 Bowser's Castle and Bowser's Factory, as well as Castle Wall and AGPDX Bowser's Castle, has recently ended, and passed! But before I can begin splitting, I need the current versions of Bowser's Factory and AGPDX Bowser's Castle to be moved back to AGP1 Bowser's Castle and Castle Wall, respectively, since the articles originally started out as such, and I feel like the revision history of those original articles should be preserved (as opposed to being a mess that changed from one article to another, with the one article it begun as getting its own separate history).

This section concerns the doctor of crygor[edit]Based on your user page, you played some wario microgame games. I have nominated that article (from the section title) to be an fa, but since then, no response. I have made many edits to that article. so it is now long as mona or ashley.

Ripping Mario Kart Arcade GP 1+2[edit]Hey Ray Trace, I'm trying to rip textures and sprites from MKAGP, but until now without success. I figured out you ripped some sprites, specially of MKAGP2, so I ask you how did you do that? Blueberrymuffin 04:12, July 14, 2023 (UTC -03)
Thanks, I was doing it already, I was trying to find a version that rip, cause the new ones can't, but i got it. Blueberrymuffin 10:04, July 16, 2023 (UTC -03) Categories containing user pages[edit]I was looking through Category:Super Mario 3D World objects and noticed one of your subpages in there. I then looked through it and found multiple categories. You can leave it as it is if you want, but I feel like some people are going to be confused. This is not a serious problem, just a minor gripe that you can ignore if you want. :) Santa MH:) at 04:20, August 31, 2023 (EDT) Undeleted inappropriate log delete request[edit]An inappropriate content is remained from log.

WarioWare Renders[edit]Hey, quick question, some renders for the WarioWare characters (specifically Jimmy T, 18-Volt, Dribble & Spitz, and 13-Amp, had new renders for Move It! but got reverted. Do you think the renders are fine or should the renders from Get it Together stay there for now? I think the Move It renders are fine but would rather not edit war about them. Thanks!

Reception of Super Mario Galaxy[edit]Hi, Ray. I hope you've been doing well. I don't know if you remember, but last summer, you asked me to revise the reception section for Super Mario Galaxy. I just wanted to let you know that I have finally done so, as well as added a section beneath on narrative themes. I hope it's alright, and sorry about the wait. I had started graduate studies last fall and I didn't want to engage in major projects on the wiki until I had time to spare. Let me know what you think! I've never written about reviews or awards before, but hopefully I focused on the right stuff. - Nintendo101 (talk) 22:45, January 10, 2024 (EST)
Mario Kart Wii course maps[edit]Hi, I'm of the understanding that the minimaps in MKW are actually models? If that is indeed the case, would it be possible to process the images of them to more resemble their in-game appearance in size and outline structure? Most of my worry about this working comes from the battle mode maps, since they tend to be colored and have icons all over them in gameplay, making the lesser lines on them not apparent. I figured I could do it for the racing ones without too much trouble, but I want to know if it's even feasible. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:32, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
"fucking ugly ass gray and grayer"[edit]I got raked over the coals for calling someone's work "bad"; this is a few magnitudes worse. For the record, you're describing the same user's work. I'd suggest you take your own advice here:otherwise you look irresponsible with the feedback you're giving. And no, the fact that I was addressing Doc directly while you did it indirectly doesn't clear you of the offense. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 06:22, October 25, 2024 (EDT)
For what it's worth as the person being spoken of, I understood what you meant just fine. Granted, I also dislike the standard wikitable look, though I wouldn't use such... immoderate language to describe it on the public proposals page. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:05, October 27, 2024 (EDT)
Villains Wiki should get their labeling right.[edit]I say this as a joke lol for the longest time they labeled Dimentio as SPM's main antagonist and Count Bleck its secondary, you might as well call them the main antagonist duumvirate, right? Or I'm probably a dipstick, lol. 98.114.59.56 14:51, November 7, 2024 (EST) |
