== ''Luigi's Mansion''/Featured articles ==
Hello there. I heard you are working hard to get the ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' and ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' articles featured. I am also trying to get this accomplished. Would you like to create some more articles for rooms in [[The Last Resort]] in LM3? I've been doing it for a while but I sort of lost interest with ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. I don't know if this is something you'd be interested in. I saw you were able to create [[Elevator Hall (Paranormal Productions)|Elevator Hall]] and [[Entrance Hall]]. {{User:The Mansion/sig}} 20:13, December 31, 2019 (EST)

Writing

Hello. A few things when editing:

  • Writing in second-person (using the word "you") must be avoided. Instead, we use "the player" or the character's name (e.g. "The player receives an ability that helps them.")
  • You're confusing "it's" with "its": "it's" is the contracted form for "it is", while "its" is the possessive pronoun (e.g. "Its first appearance...")

Thanks for the tips PFVID (talk) 19:08, July 10, 2019 (EDT)

In addition, keep in mind that game titles should be italicised (so Luigi's Mansion 3 becomes Luigi's Mansion 3; see MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Italicizing titles). You do this by clicking the I icon above the text box and typing the name in. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 06:41, December 12, 2019 (EST)

You don't need to italicise like [[Luigi's Mansion|''Luigi's Mansion'']]. The difference between this and [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'']] (which I assume you were following the format of) is that the text that follows the vertical bar | changes the link to display that text (i.e. the page is Donkey Kong (franchise) but the link shows "Donkey Kong"; this is called piping). Since the name of the link is the same as the name of the page you're linking to, simply typing ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' is much easier.

Page creation

Hi, thanks for following the advice Mario jc gave you above. Keep in mind that every new article needs a navtemplate (if it exists) as well as at least one category. Also, when adding infoboxes to pages, make sure the parameters match up with the infobox's coding. I already fixed the listed issues for you, though be sure to keep that in mind for future reference.

Luigi's Mansion/Featured articles

Hello there. I heard you are working hard to get the Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion 3 articles featured. I am also trying to get this accomplished. Would you like to create some more articles for rooms in The Last Resort in LM3? I've been doing it for a while but I sort of lost interest with Super Mario Maker 2. I don't know if this is something you'd be interested in. I saw you were able to create Elevator Hall and Entrance Hall. Lady Bow from Paper Mario.
