Image Category Reminder
Hello, Archivist Toadette. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:
When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use: [[Category:Super Mario World images]]or [[Category:Super Mario World media files]] Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing. |
A few of your uploads have been neglecting categorization. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 23:56, 20 December 2016 (EST)
- Yes, {{uncategorized}} was Porplemontage (talk)'s idea and I created it. The reminder I gave you should give you a good place to start in the future instead of solely relying on the uncategorized template. The idea is for you to get more familiar with our website's inner workings. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 16:31, 21 December 2016 (EST)
Wii U Screenshot Uploads
Check this out because you can submit 1280x720 screenshots of live Wii U gameplay this way! No need to rely on YouTube videos (very common). Only downside is that it is JPEG. Don't convert to PNG. That doesn't do anything but bloat the file size. Quality doesn't increase. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 23:59, 20 December 2016 (EST)
- @Wildgoosespeeder It increases the quality of MediaWiki-generated thumbnails. --A gossip-loving Toad (Talk) 01:55, 21 December 2016 (EST)
- Different sampling algorithms for reduction. The source image is likely flawed, similar to JPEG to PNG conversions (MPEG or other lossy formats that generated the frame being screenshot to PNG in this case). --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 16:29, 21 December 2016 (EST)
Signature
I see that your signature (~~~~) is inserting raw code instead of transcluding it ({{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} produces (T|C)). The page exists, but something isn't set up right. Please verify here to make sure your Special:Preferences are set up correctly. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 16:17, 21 December 2016 (EST)
- I think so. Just keep using ~~~~ and verify the code after you commit your edit. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 17:47, 21 December 2016 (EST)
FYI, your sig currently breaches the sigbox. Maybe shrink Toadette down a bit or replace it.
- It wasn't a major problem, so it didn't seem like you needed a {{sigfix}} warning. You had just fixed an earlier issue, anyway, so I wasn't going to give you another one.

Thanks For Working On Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Pages
Thanks for getting around to creating missing articles for Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. There is one in particular I wanted to see created and that is Poison Canal Cannon Run. You don't even need to upload an image for it. It already exists. When you can, make this article and use the image I am supplying. That should save you some time uploading. To save even more time with uploads, use the episode pages (Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3, etc.). No need to create duplicate uploads. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 14:46, 23 December 2016 (EST)
- Really? That's my favorite level as well! However, I'll put it off until I reach Toadette's Tribulations. You can feel free to create some of them as well.
(T|C) 12:23, 24 December 2016 (EST)
- I don't have the game so my contributions would be limited. I already tried to create the article the image I am referencing in this conversation and L151 (talk) shot it down. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 17:37, 24 December 2016 (EST)
- That's all right, you can try to watch 100% playthroughs of the game. It's what I do even though I have the game.
(T|C) 08:54, 25 December 2016 (EST)
- Even so, I think that my contributions would be limited. If I can experience the game instead of watching someone else play, I can contribute more because of first hand experience. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 16:01, 27 December 2016 (EST)

Creating talk pages of blocked users
If a user is blocked, there's no reason to create a new talk page if one doesn't exist purely to state that the user is blocked. All that does is waste space on the server. 17:17, 28 December 2016 (EST)
Courtesy Reminder
This reminder has been overturned by the MarioWiki staff. The original reminder can still be viewed. |
---|
Please stop edit sniping on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
According to policy, edit sniping is prohibited (first bullet point). Your edit. I was getting to it! Don't do it again! --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 19:49, 8 January 2017 (EST)
- The staff are in favor of overturning this reminder. Please see here for their reasoning.
Articles
Hey, it's great that you are creating articles for the missing levels, but they shouldn't be left in a bare-bones fashion. It would be much better to create the article in whole edit, especially as you add the information in short bursts which floods the recent changes, which is against our rules. I hope this doesn't discourage you from creating the articles. Yoshi876 (talk)
Edits
Hey! Great work on the Captain Toad / Woolly World / Mario Run level articles, but just to reiterate what Yoshi876 said, you should try to keep the number of edits to a page to a minimum, meaning keeping them in one big edit, then making any minor fixes if necessary. Just letting you know as making multiple consecutive edits to one page floods the recent changes page and is a warnable offence. Thanks for understanding and keep contributing! Mario JC 21:07, 24 January 2017 (EST)
Coin GUI Image
Since you removed the coin GUI image from the Magma Burger page, should it be removed from the Ruddy Road and the Battle Card pages too? --TheFlameChomp (talk) 18:13, 5 February 2017 (EST)
- I'd say yes, since having an image in that particular scenario seems unprofessional to me.
(T|C) 18:36, 5 February 2017 (EST)
- Actually, no for Battle Card, as for once the icon looks professional there. I'm talking about using the image in-text.
(T|C) 18:40, 5 February 2017 (EST)
- OK! I also recently added it to the Coin gallery. Should it stay there, too? --

Re:Featured Articles
Thanks for expressing concern for my project.
Anyway, my sandbox isn't necessarily going to be one big homogenous page; it's just the foundation of what I'm going to do. Basically, I'm planning to split some things into separate pages: MarioWiki:Featured Articles/Archives/Feature nominations amd MarioWiki:Featured Articles/Archives/Unfeature nominations.
I'm going to replace the "Nominated articles/lists" and "FAs proposed for unfeaturing" headers with my Active nominations table.
My Featured/Articles Lists header will just add a link to the way it's currently organized.
I won't put a proposal up until I'm done organizing the archives list. There's still a lot of them left to go, so it won't be for a while. Ray Trace(T|C) 20:48, 6 February 2017 (EST)
- Anyway, I've already set up the archive in my page (the tables under the dates headers are my planned archive pages). What I'm planning to do is create archive page for feature nominations, copy that table to the archive page, and you can add your idea of adding different colors for different statuses. You should probably copy and paste my list rather than start them from scratch.
Ray Trace(T|C) 23:40, 8 February 2017 (EST)
- I still think it's a better idea to give each year a different header, since we also currently organize featured articles by year. It's just for consistency's sake.
Ray Trace(T|C) 12:26, 9 February 2017 (EST)
- Well, the way we currently do it is to organize by date and split off the years. The archives should also reflect that. We can also add the sortable parameter to the individual tables but keep in mind that the category archives already sort it alphabetically by default.
Ray Trace(T|C) 13:25, 9 February 2017 (EST)
- Oh my goodness, I see a problem with the whole category thing in the unfeature succession archive. It's organized much differently than this category for no reason at all, because someone arbitrarily added |"letter of the name" to the end of the category at the bottom of the archive, rather than just letting the category organize itself. Also, the entire FA page naming needed admin intervention in the first place; I've contacted L151 (talk) to rename a good chunk of those names, because they were inconsistent as hell. I suggest we contact an admin or something to get rid of those added parameters in the category name.
Ray Trace(T|C) 13:55, 9 February 2017 (EST)
- I have an idea. Maybe we could set up our ideas in the talk pages provided, so we can both edit it. How's that? I'm already giving you permission to make changes to my table, and if we're going to work together on this, we should both be able to edit it without having to make separate pages for two ideas that might clash together.
Ray Trace(T|C) 14:26, 9 February 2017 (EST)
- Nomination number, easy. Replace "First" "Second" in your table with IDs like "N1", "N2", so it's better organized that way, by numerical rather than alphabetical. I also had thoughts on implementing the color scheme, but I wasn't concerned on that yet until I completely finished writing the tables for all archives.

Re:Pink Gold Peach template dispute
Sorry about that, the templates were a bit confusing because they both stated "This article" rather than "This article/section of an article" also there is no mention on {{just released}} that it should only be used on game articles. I am wondering why you added a section on my talk page and acted like I had undone your edit multiple timed, the edit summary was perfectly fine and I would of understood from that perfectly fine, so I feel like there was no need to add that section to my talk page.

One Particular Article To Create
Apparently, File:Kamek's Last-Ditch Flyby 2.jpg and File:Kamek's Last-Ditch Flyby.jpg were uploaded almost two years ago without an article to link to them. I have a request. Please create Kamek's Last-Ditch Flyby as your next article to create, just to use them up so they don't have to show up in Special:UnusedFiles anymore. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 21:00, 17 April 2017 (EDT)
- I found a home for the latter image, but I'm not yet ready to create the level. Perhaps you could wait another...week...or two?

Featured Articles
Hey, how has it been going? Have you made any significant progress constructing our planned Featured Article archive/nominations? Me, I haven't touched it in a while, thanks to other projects and projects outside of the wiki. Ray Trace(T|C) 20:44, 20 April 2017 (EDT)
- Yeah...I've been busy, too...But I definitely intend on finishing it!
(T|C) 20:54, 20 April 2017 (EDT)
- Just curious, but how much is done so far? I haven't been keeping track of it since that time ago. I'd maybe continue on it sometime soon as well. In the meantime, maybe we could move that table to the talk page of that archive, so we can both edit it.
Ray Trace(T|C) 21:41, 20 April 2017 (EDT)
- I'm almost done with the successfully unfeatured articles in 2013 and hope to finish the unfeaturing succession archives in 2014 by the end of the weekend. Once I'm done, I'll go back and add in all of the failure archives.
(T|C) 21:43, 20 April 2017 (EDT)
- Just letting you know I have updated my page, just so you won't put yourself with unnecessary work.
Ray Trace(T|C) 01:36, 27 April 2017 (EDT)
- I have tracked down...all 154 successful nominations in my sandbox page, that I know of (occasionally nominations get their categories left out, sometimes you need to double check). Now all that's left are the failure archives and the unfeature succession archives. Feel free to copy and paste my progress on starting out on the feature failures on your project page.

What the heck?????
Not trying to be rude, but.....when you just took out everything I just made for the "Zoe Nelson" article,......like, what the heck????? I spent 45 minutes making that and finding that information!!! Isn't there someplace it can go? You basically just waisted a whole 45 minutes. It seemed like perfectly fine information to have on the wiki to me.....I have no clue what it is to you, but that took me a while and I'm just disappointed. Sorry if I was a bit harsh. Tommy 8353 (talk) 22:02, 22 April 2017 (EDT)
- Sorry to butt in, but Toadette's not online so...
- The information you put has nothing to do with the Mario series. It is not important to add information about what movies she was in, etc. When writing about anything, we only include information having to do with Mario. For example, on Link's article, we don't include info about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but we do include ino from the Super Smash Bros. series because that involves Link interacting with Mario characters and elements. Hope this clears that up.
(--) 22:25, 22 April 2017 (EDT)
- oh, okay, thanks! Sorry about that. It does make sense to only include information about what non-mario articles have to do with mario. Even though my edit was pretty long, I thought it would be okay to at least mention other things non-mario related, but I guess that wasn't the case. Thank you!
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tommy 8353 (talk).
Afoot in the foothills
According to Henry Tucayo Clay (talk), this kind of redirect should be lowercase. I know that the official capitalization is Afoot in the Foothills, but when typing the redirect in, you have to be exact with the capitalization, while with Afoot in the foothills or Afoot In The Foothills, it works with any capitalization. --TheFlameChomp (talk) 18:41, 23 April 2017 (EDT)
- I thought rule 4 was covering redirects with the same words as the actual page, just with different capitalization, like with the example shown when it says "Super Mario galaxy" is unnecessary as a redirect to "Super Mario Galaxy". Should I ask Tucayo his opinions about the Afoot in the foothills redirect? --
TheFlameChomp (talk) 19:54, 23 April 2017 (EDT)
- Tucayo told me that he would have to talk with the other admins to figure out something consistent to do with redirects, as he pointed out that anyone who tried to link to the correct capitalization would end up with a red link, something that didn't occur to me, so you were right that we will have to keep it as Afoot in the Foothills. About rule number 4, he said that it does refer specifically to redirects such as "Super Mario galaxy". --

RE: Music Notes
Thanks for that; I'm surprised someone noticed I've been doing that! Though manually patrolling new pages and edits really isn't mandatory, just as long as we notice them - I just do it as I come across any of them. Mario JC 08:06, 29 April 2017 (EDT)
Also while I'm here, just an FYI for future YWW level articles in case you link to the following pages: "Goal roulette" has been moved to "Goal Ring", and the YWW info from Whirly Gate has been moved to "Transformation Door". Keep up the good work! Mario JC 08:10, 29 April 2017 (EDT)
Super Mario Galaxy Missions
I've noticed you've been adding mission tables and such to the Super Mario Galaxy related missions. I have done the same with Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine, and am planning to do the same with Super Mario Galaxy 2 as well (though if you want to do that one, you can). This is a project I have been working on for a number of months now, and having you work on it further would ultimately qualify as edit sniping. I appreciate the help, but I am almost done with the project and would like to avoid any issues. 16:42, 7 May 2017 (EDT)
Forum talk on user talk pages
I could be wrong, but I think the forum comments rule is only for main talk pages, not user talk pages. I don't think it is allowed to remove those comments from user talk pages, even if they are forum talk. --Super Mario Fan 67 (T•C•S) 22:21, 22 May 2017 (EDT)
- So sorry! For a while I thought the "no forum talk" policy applied to user talk pages as well. Ah, well... Still, it might still be wise to strongly caution against making forum comments anywhere on the wiki. I'll make a proposal soon. ;)
(T|C) 23:39, 22 May 2017 (EDT)
Proposition
I see that one of your next projects is creating articles on the missions of Super Mario Galaxy 2. I had already started this, so how about we work together and get it done faster? Since I'm working on world 1, why don't you do every other world (2, 4, & 6) and I'll do the odd ones (1, 3, & 5)? As for the special world, maybe we can alternate galaxies or something. 12:33, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
Grinder
Just so you know (as I've fixed it a few times before), the link Grinder leads to a disambiguation page, and the page about the chainsaw-like obstacles is called Grinder (obstacle). Thanks! --TheFlameChomp (talk) 18:47, 28 May 2017 (EDT)
Ship Love
It's the same name in Japan, so a {{foreign names}} isn't necessary this time. Mario JC 05:04, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
RE:SMG2 Update
I'm not entirely sure what you mean. By "smaller portion", I'm assuming you mean the mission table in the galaxy pages and "bigger portion" meaning the missions themselves? If that's the case, then doing the galaxies would be rather inefficient. 22:20, 4 June 2017 (EDT)
- Sounds good. When we get there, why don't I take every other galaxy starting from Twisty Trials Galaxy?

Mario Circuit (GCN)
Hello, I noticed that you gave the rewritten article for Mario Circuit (GCN) a once-over after I finished it the other night, thank you very much for that! Anyway, I noticed that you didn't remove the rewrite notice, and I understand that I probably missed something on it the other night. What do you reckon still needs to be done then, if you don't mind me asking? You seem to really know what you're doing here! (: Sorry, It's just that I like the Mario Kart stuff to thorough and correct, so it annoys me if there's a rewrite notice or whatnot on a Mario Kart related page- Particularly my favourite Mario Circuit of all time! So sorry to be pestering, but it'd be great if you could give me a pointer or two. Thank you! BBQ Turtle (talk) 12:13, 5 June 2017 (EDT)

Welcoming
Hello! Just so you know, I don't believe that you're supposed to create talk pages just to welcome users like you did here, as, according to MarioWiki:Welcoming users, creating user talk pages for the sole purpose of welcoming new users is prohibited, though the policy states that you can welcome them if you are creating a user talk page for another reason. Thanks! --TheFlameChomp (talk) 15:37, 5 June 2017 (EDT)
RE: Goombas: (microgame) or (WarioWare: D.I.Y.)?
See Special:WantedPages. Don't go changing the templates so fast (you have to change the files too by the way). It would mess things up. This helps identifying what game the article belongs to. Also, the game title in the article title makes it much easier for people looking up WarioWare: D.I.Y. microgames. I'm working on getting the articles complete. I thought someone else was going to pick up the slack, but thinking someone would duplicate an image, I'm just going to get to it.

- Eventually, the moves should take place, but will it be logical to do so? Only time will tell. I think that rule is there if the topics are the same in-between game releases but are different from the more commonly used definition of the name, not for every instance where the topic is referenced only once in a game series. I would talk to a sysop about this, but not now, as I am working on this little project. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 18:21, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
- Are Skeeter (New Super Mario Bros.) and Gold Ring (New Super Mario Bros. 2) name correctly? Doesn't sound like it. These are the only two examples that come to mind. There's probably many more. The point is the naming policy isn't universally followed. Probably some common sense and critical thinking are factored into the chosen names. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 18:55, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
- I don't think Porplemontage (talk) cares that much about the rules as much as staff positions lower than his. His main concern is making sure the wiki functions and polishing some things up (the recent template renames). He doesn't really care how we conduct ourselves in terms of content and article naming schemes. That seems like something that admins care about more though, not the proprietor.

- If you want other article names that use a game title to distinguish, Time Turner has created new pages with the title instead of a generic word, to distinguish. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 19:07, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
RE:Fireball (enemy)
Hello! Sorry for that. I saw it takes some time before an article gets deleted and I was afraid of forgetting in the meantime to move "Fireball (Mario Bros.)" to "Fireball (enemy)". So I chose the more straightforward path. Will not happen again in the future! -- -- KOOPA CON CARNE
RE: Panel
It's best that it be red linked and be put into Special:WantedPages, to get someone else to write it. Plus, I don't have all the information I need for the article. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 20:29, 28 June 2017 (EDT)
RE: SPP
It seems I do, thank you for notifying me. I have no idea how I managed to skip those. I'll get round to them at some point :P Yoshi876 (talk)
RE:SMB3
Supposedly, I'm working with Lord Bowser (talk) on this project, who will cover the odd numbered worlds and World 6 (as he wanted to do that one). He's busy with some other projects, but he assured me he'll get to them. 15:51, 6 July 2017 (EDT)
