User talk:Alex95: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:12, August 7, 2016

Rules: Pretty much wiki standard, I guess. I've seen others post rules on their talk pages, so I might as well add some, too.

No swearing or obscenity. These words will get edited out ASAP.
No spamming/trolling/flaming. I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with, but if I ever do tick you off, don't rant on my page.
Questions about my Power Master games and/or YouTube videos are fine. There are other places for those kinds of talk, of course, but I don't mind them on here.
Any questions relating to my wiki, please post them here.
I welcome friendship.
Have fun!

Welcome, Alex95!

Recent edits

Hi. We don't update the latest appearance until the game in question has been released. So please don't do it anymore. Yoshi876 (talk)

Hey Alex95

Thank you for your comment on the main page. I'm thinking that it probably won't do any good, considering spammers and trolls wouldn't look there, and you won't be banned for it. It really won't help, but its exactly how all of us Wikians feel.

On a side note, because of how awesome that speech was, would you like to be friends? Toad and his brigade! 21:11, 16 February 2015 (EST)

Aboutfile reminder

Hello, Alex95. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below.

{{aboutfile
|1=Subject of the image
|2=Where you found the image
|3=Artist
|4=Describe edits, if any
|5=Other versions (use file link)
}}

Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

I see. Sorry about that... You (or whoever did it) didn't have to correct all that, by the way. If I'm told I did something wrong or inconvenient, I'll fix it. But now I know for the future. (Alex95 (talk) 00:28, 4 January 2016 (EST))

I didn't fix all of that, but I would have. But next time, make sure you format it correctly, it helps to have a correct aboutfile template in image files. Also, be sure to categorize your images in the appropriate game ie [[Category:Yoshi's Wooly World Images]]. But otherwise, keep uploading images, you did good.

Ray Trace^(T|C) 01:56, 4 January 2016 (EST)

Thanks! That's probably the last (and only) time I'll do a major dump like that. I really just wanted to get through them quickly so I can get through them, but I ended up skipping a few steps... Sorry about that. If I ever upload another picture, I'll make sure to make the proper edits. (Alex95 (talk) 15:32, 5 January 2016 (EST))

Signature

I see you are using raw code for your signatures. Refer to Help:Signature. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 22:54, 22 March 2016 (EDT)

I don't mind using the raw code. It's quick and easy. Besides, I don't know what to make my sig look like haha. I'm sure I'll make one sooner or later, but for right now, I don't feel the need to. (Alex95 (talk) 23:14, 22 March 2016 (EDT))

I don't think you understand. It is against MarioWiki policy to use raw signature code (I think). I once inserted raw code but I saw an alert that suggested I move onto approved signature code. My signature just uses {{user}} ({{user|Wildgoosespeeder}}). --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 15:39, 25 March 2016 (EDT)

Alright, well, going over the signature policy, it seems the raw code is not allowed in voting pages? I've been told to just use the four ~ if I want and I have not been told otherwise yet. I suppose if it's upsetting you, I'll find another way to use it instead. Alex95 (talk) 16:45, 25 March 2016 (EDT)

RE: Sandbox?

Hi Alex95! You can think of the sandbox as a place where you can experiment with the wiki syntax, prepare your wiki edits, and do general tests. For example, if you are designing a long table, you can use your sandbox to test how it looks before implementing it in the actual wiki. It also helps when you want to take a break mid-work, so you can save the edits you made to your sandbox and resume work later. It is better than having an incomplete page on the wiki. You can create your own sandbox by creating a subpage to your userpage, simply open User:Alex95\Sandbox and you can edit it while working on a project. Otherwise, if you want to quickly test something, you are totally free to use MarioWiki:Sandbox, which is a page that was specifically designed for users to mess with the syntax. The main difference is that your own sandbox cannot be edited by any other user (except admins, but they won't usually edit it.) Hopefully I explained that well to you. See you around.

TL;DR: It's a sandbox, why don't you try to design a sand sculpture for the wiki?--

Those facts

Are true Arceus (talk) 13:14, 23 April 2016 (EDT)

The one where Donkey Kong was made with Pop-Eye characters was partially true. They didn't move the game to the Game & Watch until after the arcade release. Also, like I said, you can't expect people to fix your poor edits. Learn how to edit properly before making a major change to something everyone sees. Not trying to sound mean or nagging here, but please learn how to edit properly before you start making a fool of yourself...

You add fixed versions of those somewhat true facts then? Arceus (talk) 13:20, 23 April 2016 (EDT)

Re:Cool as Ice

Searching that phrase in Google yields the said movie as the only result. It's fairly well-known, which stars well-known rapper and I wouldn't be surprised if the English localizers named the said quest with that movie in mind. 207.233.76.9 13:07, 26 April 2016 (EDT)

Re: Your 'Shroom Sign-up

Hello, thanks for telling me about this. Are you PowerMaster on the forums? Did you re-send the application? Don't worry, you're not sounding rude, it's fine to ask! Dippy is indeed retiring, so if you wish to apply again, please PM me your application. I'll be glad to answer any questions you may have. --™ The 'Shroom 23:33, 6 June 2016 (EDT)

I apologize on behalf of the Core Staff for not getting back to you promptly; sometimes other occupations take our attention away. Well, if you do decide you want to apply again, just shoot me a PM and I'll be sure to answer :) --

Inability to create user page

I'm unable to create my user page. Every title I see in red it says "I don't have permission to create them. Could you help? Thanks. Marole3 (talk) 01:11, 9 July 2016 (EDT)Marole3

Well, Sorry

Sorry a start a rumor for Walkazo ? Sorry condolences for ver family --Captain Yoshi

wardrobe room

Why did you remove edit?Pikmin theories (talk) 20:27, 11 July 2016 (EDT)

One is next to the red dress and the other is on the "screen" wall (seen through Game boy horror) I swear I've seen Zelda wearing those dresses or at least something similar.

Well, I don't know how to upload pictures and what not, but I guareentee Zelda wore said dresses at least once, and I wasn't complaining, I ask so We can set things straight. Oh yeah, one of the dresses is on the picture in the article.

Okay well, it's the purple dress on the rack next to the red one where the key is found and the other is on the back wall and it's pinkPikmin theories (talk) 21:07, 11 July 2016 (EDT)

Personal Image Tagged for Higher Quality

Do you want me to get you a high quality emulator screenshot of File:LM Clothes 2.jpg? --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:32, 12 July 2016 (EDT)

You tagged it and I have the game and emulator to do high quality. PNG or keep JPEG? Normally I would just go with PNG automatically because this image isn't a good image to use for Wardrobe or something, even in its highest quality. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:36, 12 July 2016 (EDT)

Done. File:LM Clothes 2.png --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:49, 12 July 2016 (EDT)

Do with it as you wish. I just copypasta the text (and sometimes adjust the text) when uploading higher quality PNGs of terrible JPEGs. That's what I do normally on MarioWiki. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:53, 12 July 2016 (EDT)

Dorrie glitch

SM64DS

I was adding true facts. Yoshi is actually taller than the plumbers. You removed thinner, twin brother on this page. Luigi is slightly thinner than Mario. And Wario can ground pound signs once rather than twice, which was changed to "twice as much as others". Marole3 Aug 7. 2016
