You included a reference for this object's "name" that consisted entirely of the letter "G". I'm not sure what you meant to put there, but it needs fixed. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 14:59, July 28, 2022 (EDT)

Navigation templates / categories

Hello, thanks for creating those articles, though in the future, please keep in mind that they should have a navigation template and category at the bottom of the page (refer to MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Navigation templates and MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Categories). In the case of Walls for demolition, it should have:

{{WC}}
[[Category:Mario Objects]]
[[Category:Wrecking Crew]]

You can look at other similar articles to see which navigation templates and categories to use. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 06:20, January 11, 2021 (EST)

These articles you're creating would benefit with displaying images, so remember to add {{image}} at the top as well if there aren't any. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 20:42, January 13, 2021 (EST)

Uploads

Hello, Axii. 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:

Images Audio/video files

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.

Hello, Axii. 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.

Make sure to categorise the file and remove any parameters from the "aboutfile" template that you're not using (like "3=Artist"). Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 05:32, January 3, 2022 (EST)

Xylophone

Hi. I deleted the move request on the Xylophone page, as there's really no point in moving the page to a guide name if there's already an in-game name, right? PrincessPeachFan (talk) 08:32, February 6, 2022 (EST)

RE: Mistakes

You're welcome, nice work on the articles. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 05:06, February 21, 2022 (EST)

Re:Fire Block

It's been a while so I don't recall exact reasons, but looking at the disambiguation page, I think it was because the Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis article is the only one to actually use "Fire Block" in the title. LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:30, April 6, 2022 (EDT)

Ruin

Where does the alternate name "Stone Pillar" come from? It's not in the Lost Kingdom brochure, so I'd like to know where you got it. Dark BonesSig.png 14:47, July 27, 2022 (EDT)

Please do not post RE: messages on my talk page. As I state at the top of my talk page in large letters, I really don't like them. They fracture discussions and make them hard to follow. It's so much easier to follow discussions when they stick to one page.
Anyway, I think "Stone Pillar" is a better name for the article, since "ruin" is used as more of a generic descriptive term than anything. Dark BonesSig.png 14:59, July 27, 2022 (EDT)

Yellow piece of the maze

You included a reference for this object's "name" that consisted entirely of the letter "G". I'm not sure what you meant to put there, but it needs fixed. Dark BonesSig.png 14:59, July 28, 2022 (EDT)

Treble clef

Hi, just wondering: do you intend to eventually create an article on Super Mario Odyssey's treble clef? Toadette icon CTTT.pngFont of Archivist Toadette's signature(T|C) 15:04, August 9, 2022 (EDT)

Okay, got it. Thanks! Toadette icon CTTT.pngFont of Archivist Toadette's signature(T|C) 15:26, August 9, 2022 (EDT)

Spinning block

Quick question; what's the context of this name's origin? (As in, how is it used in a sentence?) S o m e t h i n g o n e ! Red Bandit.png 09:14, August 10, 2022 (EDT)

Yeah, that's not really much of a name. It's just a description of what they are; a block that spins/rotates. S o m e t h i n g o n e ! Red Bandit.png 18:44, August 10, 2022 (EDT)

New articles

A couple things regarding the Odyssey pages, make sure to tag any articles that need images but don't have one with {{image}}, and that they're linked to somewhere on the wiki, otherwise they become orphaned pages. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:03, August 11, 2022 (EDT)

Monita

I don't know if you're aware of this, but we used to have an article on Monita, but it was deleted via proposal. If you want it restored, you have to start another proposal. Also, if you feel the need to add a stub template to a new article you just created, you should hold off on creating it; creating new stub articles is against policy.

About this Pinballer edit

Do you think it would be acceptable to point out that the Pinballer and F.L.U.D.D. share the exact same colors with no mention of a possible involvement with E. Gadd? --Conradd (talk) 11:35, August 16, 2022 (EDT)

Some minor formatting stuff

On that proposal you just made: why did you link to the affected articles with a full URL instead of just using [[these]]? Seems unnecessary and just adds clutter. Also you should use Template:fake link to link to proposed article creations instead of redlinking them, just in case the proposal doesn't pass. Dark BonesSig.png 17:15, August 19, 2022 (EDT)
