==1.0 Mario Party series mini-games==
This is a list of images that need to be replaced with better quality. The whole file database of the MarioWiki was manually scanned around 2010 08-AUGUST 17. Unfortunately, it was left untouched lost in time until in 2013 05-MAY 08, it was revived. The entries have been scanned; entries are removed for these two following reasons: deleted, or replaced with a better quality file. Please note that the file database is not scanned again, these are just the old entries.
There's one thing Mario Party fans would craze for its quick, colorful, and well-written pun names for us to witness, it's mini-games! It's basically how the gameplay entirely changes from being 4th place into 1st place just by participating in these events. Types of mini-games range from the most common '4 player mini-games' to life-risking 'Bowser mini-games' for a plot to receive, or lose Coins in the end of each mini-game with varied results determined by mini-game rules, and play outcomes.


There are a batch of articles that are in need for a rewrite overhaul, and a take on doing research for beginners (and experienced) who wanted to write seemingly small articles that are worth good info. Writers will need to research the gameplay from the beginning to the end, the type of mini-game, how the mini-game received a written pun, or wordplay, differences from the US (since most of the users in the wiki actually live in the US) and other regions by anything/everything, and if possible, that trivia section.

This section is usually recommended for Mario Party fans who at least owned a copy of a single game from the series. For those who played the game a few times, a couple of times, or haven't played the game at all, your in luck. You can still help this project in favor of gaining experience in the wiki, and at least become an inspired Mario Party fan as part of the whole Mario series. Here's a short list of resources you should try researching and gathering information for both types of people:
<br>
 
=Yoshi (2D)=
[http://www.mariowiki.com YouTube] - A fine place to watch gameplay videos from those mini-games. Search the videos at your own risk.<br>
==''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''==
[http://www.gamefaqs.com GameFAQs] - Written logs of walkthroughs. You must write the info from the files with your own words. Do not copy, or add questionable info.

If you want to participate in this project, you should identify yourself if you owned a copy of a Mario Party game, played it, or haven't played it at all. Also, you havfe to tell what game are you going to work on, and what mini-game type, or etc. Here is an example:
'''QUESTION OF UNCERTAINTY:'''<br>replace images with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System or Game Boy Advance version, or have them both; alternatively, have both images?

===1.1 Article Structure===
Most mini-game articles I've as of today don't even have sections that separates info with simple profession. Way back then in wiki history, there was barely a tiny amount of mini-game articles, until I joined the wiki, and wrote a decent amount of info. That's a start, but it wasn't enough to even satisfy myself. After a bunch of changes as I edit, I made a suitable article structure, and recently an infobox template called "minigame-infobox" that stores all the info came from the actual game. How is how the article should be written as:
 
:• A<small>RTICLE TITLE</small>
::▬ T<small>EMPLATE:MINIGAME-INFOBOX</small>
:::▬ I<small>MAGE</small>, write the filename, and do not include "Image:"
:::▬ A<small>PPEARED_IN</small>, write the videogame that the mini-game appeared in. Be sure to use <font style="font-family:Courier New"><nowiki>''</nowiki></font>.
:::▬ T<small>YPE</small>, the type of mini-game either by players, or events:
{|

|► 1-vs-3
|► Item

|► 8-player
|-
|width=90px|
|► 4-player
|► 2-vs-2
|► Bowser
|► Duel
|► Battle
|► Coin/Bonus
|}
:::▬ I<small>NFO</small>, have hold text on <nowiki>[instructions]</nowiki><sup>1</sup>, and <nowiki><br></nowiki>, and write the instructions that came from the game with <font style="font-family:Courier New"><nowiki>''</nowiki></font>.

This is a list of images that need to be replaced with better quality. The whole file database of the MarioWiki was manually scanned around 2010 08-AUGUST 17. Unfortunately, it was left untouched lost in time until in 2013 05-MAY 08, it was revived. The entries have been scanned; entries are removed for these two following reasons: deleted, or replaced with a better quality file. Please note that the file database is not scanned again, these are just the old entries.

Contributors helping to work on the images:


Yoshi (2D)

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

QUESTION OF UNCERTAINTY:
replace images with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System or Game Boy Advance version, or have them both; alternatively, have both images?
