Titles

Please remember to format any game titles you name in italics, per MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Italicizing titles (so Paper Mario should be formatted as Paper Mario). Rosalina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 21:43, December 30, 2020 (EST)

Super Mario RPG pre-release images

Hey, the pre-release images you've uploaded are truly appreciated! Just so you're aware, that "VideoGames" magazine is not the only source of many of those screenshots - it turns out Nintendo Magazine System (UK/AU) has many of the same ones, and even several more (I spotted a very different design of a certain "bugger" for instance). When I came across them, I was very shocked they didn't seem to be documented elsewhere! I plan to upload them in time for the game's 25th anniversary if possible, along with a neglected Japanese scan. LinkTheLefty (talk) 12:59, January 20, 2021 (EST)

You're welcome! I know other publications likely had some pre-release images as well, but that issue of "VideoGames" magazine was the only one I knew for certain that has them. RHG1951 (talk) 14:14, January 20, 2021 (EST)
I know this was quite a while ago, but I found a ton more since then, and I've started to compile it here (not even getting into the Japanese stuff, in which I see see even more differences down to the text). LinkTheLefty (talk) 12:36, November 4, 2023 (EDT)
Building on LinkTheLefty's previous statement, I'm trying to help document this as well. Could you help out with this? I don't know how to upload images from websites, and I'd appreciate the help. Thank you! -- Artwork of Rosalina used for her amiibo. Also seen in Mario Party: The Top 100, Mario Kart Tour and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.

Image templates

If an article has an {{image}} template on it, don't forget to remove it when you add an image. Dark BonesSig.png 18:31, January 30, 2021 (EST)

Sorry, I was just keeping them there because I feel like the movie camera variants of each set are still needed. RHG1951 (talk) 18:42, January 30, 2021 (EST)

PMCS Things

Ey, you're doing a pretty good job with those Paper Mario: Color Splash Things! Feel free to let me know if there are any ones in particular I could help you with. Also, feel free to do some for Paper Mario: Sticker Star at intervals if you want - we're in the homestretch with both of those. Lady Bow from Paper Mario.

SMG2 Site Images

Hey! I noticed you uploaded the correct version of the Hungry Luma image from the Super Mario Galaxy 2 site. Thank you for doing that. Could you share how you extracted the Hungry Luma image from the site? It is not seem to show up when I try to Inspect the page (Ctrl+Shift+I). There are a few other images from the site that should probably be preserved for archival reasons, such as the transparent pngs of planets seen here. - Nintendo101 (talk) 11:10, March 18, 2021 (EDT)

Other peoples' proposals

Hey, about the Smorg thing, generally speaking it's considered good form to wait at least a week or two (or at least ask) before enacting other peoples' proposals. I didn't have a chance to enact the Smorg thing as I just got home from work. I'm not mad, just letting you know. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:07, September 19, 2021 (EDT)

WWGIT Location Images

Thanks for letting me know. I will no longer upload any more images for the locations except for that one. Lady Bow from Paper Mario. Green Star Lady Bow from Paper Mario. 22:12, October 5, 2021 (EDT)

SMRPG locations table

Hey, when you replaced the locations list on the SMRPG page, you removed many of the officially distinct minor locations (many of which we do not yet have articles on), which is something I take umbrage with. Please add them back in some manner or revert, we shouldn't remove information for not having something as arbitrary as a map space. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:12, November 10, 2021 (EST)

I think it works fine as it is now, since it's more accurate to how the game itself handles these locations with the map spots. The minor locations can still be mentioned within the main area's spot, such as Belome Temple within Land's End. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 20:28, November 10, 2021 (EST)
I think the main article for the game is obligated to list every location. As it is, places like the Vinery and the Challenge Course are skipped outright. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:09, November 10, 2021 (EST)
In the interim, I thought of a good compromise: another column with a check or X depending on whether it is map-accessible. Also, I think Land's End and Nimbus Land could be differentiated by using the graphic without the beanstalk and cloud for Land's End. Also sorry if I came off as combative before, I was having a difficult time. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:45, November 10, 2021 (EST)

Image Submissions

Hey, I like your image submissions for emulator screenshots. Keep it up. I've had a screenshot guide that never left the sandbox stage to be implemented as policy or a help page (see {{MarioWiki}}). Not sure how well known it is amongst other editors. This is due to me not being 100% happy with explaining various quirks of recommended emulators to achieve the best results. Emulators are finnicky and very technical. It can definitely be out of reach for most people. I'm a bad writer. Dizzy I feel like I excel at screenshots. Mario Anyways, if you can, feel free to contribute any ideas to the talk page of my guide. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 10:39, December 24, 2021 (EST)

Wrecking Crew phases proposal

Hello! Since I had to relist my Wrecking Crew related proposal, I was told to remove your vote. If you feel like voting again, the text of your vote was as follows:

  • "RHG1951 (talk) I think lists would better suit these games because of the abundance of phases and the more arcade-style gameplay de-emphasizing the importance of an individual level."

Have a great day! Spectrogram (talk) 13:32, February 17, 2022 (EST)

Are you going to move the Pattan article to "Whimp"? Dwhitney (talk) 21:16, August 14, 2022 (EDT)

Main Page images

Hey, make sure you readjust the sizes of the images on the FA and DYK templates on the main page when updating them so they don't appear too big or too small. Rosalina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 10:38, October 22, 2022 (EDT)

The doctor crygor article

Are you going to improve on it? I revised and added extra content dramatically since February. Now the Dr Crygor article is as long as Mona article. I was wondering if any of my previous efforts on this article should need to be improved furthermore. Don't click Penny PnnyCrygr User contributions 10:39, March 4, 2023 (EST)

Crygor japanese bio's and profile pages

I tried my best to translate them from their original japanese langauge in the archived official japan sites for mega microgames, mega party games, touched, and smooth moves. Also the comment's he said to those frog drawing's in game and warii. Maybe you should revise my translation undertakings, if they have any translation inconsistansies.

20th anniversary of the WarioWare series

21 March 2023 is twenty years after the release of Made in Wario in Japan.

I think that this wiki needs more information on the series' characters (like personality, appearances, physical appearance). Fyi, I saw what you did on the Mona article today and yesterday (you improved it by rewriting paragraphs). Can you do the same for the other WarioWare characters?

  • Jimmy T
  • Dribble & Spitz
  • Kat & Ana
  • Dr. Crygor
  • 9-Volt
  • 18-Volt
  • Orbulon
  • Penny
  • Mike
  • Ashley & Red
  • Young Cricket & Master Mantis
  • Lulu
  • etc.

Also, look at the Gallery:WarioWare: Touched!. As you can see, there are few screenshots regarding the game's story cutscenes (There's only two for Wario, one for Mona, one for Kat & Ana, one for Ashley & Red, one for the epilogue of Mike's stage, ONLY ONE microgame screenshot). Can you please capture what is missing and upload them to that gallery? Thanks for your understanding.

Image editing

Thank you very much, for removing the non needed information from my uploaded images! I wanted to remove them now in the morning, but I guess the jobs already done. Thanks! - User:Luigi 1837

SVGs found in obscure official flash video of Atsumare Made in Wario

This is the flash video itself.

Hullo, RHG! I've stumbled upon an unknown flash trailer hailing from the Japanese WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$! web site. I have also noticed there are color-perfect SVG images of the WarioWare crew (every single one of them!) that can be seen at the end of the video. Love how Dribble is punching Dr. Crygor by the rear end, how funny.

Can you please rip the SVG images of the Crew out of that SWF please (based on your experience of ripping SVG files out of SWF movies)? And replace the American over-saturated SVG files featured in that game's gallery with the Japanese color-perfect SVGs found in the newly-discovered flash movie? You can download it here. Thanks if you've seen it already ;)

UPD: Someone already extracted the SVG files from that same flash file, especially the ones for Dribble, Jimmy, and 9-Volt.

RE: Mona's Super Scoops

Have you seen the Mona Superscoop page? The problem? It's the images. Count them. There are only about three images of the scoop illustrations. Fortunately, DogToon64 at Spriter's Resource managed to rip out the scoop illustrations from the Game & Wario. If you are interested in upoading them to the Mona Superscoop gallery section, feel free.

Also the game's own gallery has only two sprites: Home menu icon, and 5-Volt peeking at the window. There's lots of potential to be added there. Don't click Penny PnnyCrygr User contributions 03:56, March 22, 2023 (EDT)

Wario Touched cutscene screenshots

Did you know that the gallery of that game needs MORE cutscene screenshots? If you have a DS emulator like Desmume, maybe you could capture the cutscenes in their actual res, and upload them there.

I found some Game & Wario image of dr. Crygor

DrCrygor%28G%26W%291.png

It it was located in a Wario-related wikia, but I do not know the source, other than it came from Game & Wario. Was it from the GW site itself? Speculatively, the artwork can be found on the backside of Dr. Crygor's trophy in Sm4sh. Also, the wario wikia happens to apply unofficial transparency on any character artwork.

However, if I try to upload these https://www.mariowiki.com/File:MonaSuperscoop10.jpg https://www.mariowiki.com/File:MonaSuperscoop13.jpeg

I get warning that despite they being a .png, the system warns you that it already exits, albeit as .jpeg format. Should I keep the .png files and .jpg files, OR should we delete the .jpg's? Don't click Penny PnnyCrygr User contributions

About that thing i writes in Lava or Leave Em, I also writes something about that in Flip the Chimp and Mario je looks to like it. I writes something about a Koopa on the ferris wheel which doesn’t have a cart and that it’s unable for the player to see it, and Mario jc edited it with a few minor additions

Icon images

Are those in-game icons you're deleting? I've been starting to put in-game icons in their games' galleries for completion's sake, and while I haven't gotten to the party games yet as I'm focused on sports right now, if I ever do, I'll probably do just that. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 02:57, September 3, 2023 (EDT)

Ah, but they can be useful for tables and properly-sized galleries, just like how MK64's track icons are compressed artwork. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 12:09, September 3, 2023 (EDT)

Smash redirects

Question.svg This talk page or section has a conflict or question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

Um, if I am to understand this correctly, the winning option merely meant "prune" as in "remove the categories on them and delete the categories that could no longer support themselves," not "delete the redirects wholesale." Our redirect policy still indicates they should stay, as who knows what linked to them off-wiki beforehand. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:25, April 6, 2024 (EDT)

No, I'm pretty sure it meant deleting all of the redirects outright. "Prune" can mean trimming or cutting back. Where's any supporting info for the different Pokemon species? None. Super Mario RPG (talk) 11:34, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
If that were the case, they would have used "delete" for both, not "prune" for the redirects and "delete" for the categories. Also, the information you seek is on the Smash items page under "Pokeball" currently, and I'm in the process of moving it to the individual Smash game articles. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:41, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
Just talked to Camwoodstock on Discord and the intent of the proposal is to have the redirects deleted. - RHG1951 (talk) 13:31, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
Not to bud in, but were the proposal voters not clear about the intent? LinkTheLefty (talk) 14:04, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
Yes, we were. Super Mario RPG (talk) 14:12, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
Not at all. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 14:38, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
If you say so, but to be fair, none of us discussing the proposal here so far voted for Camwoodstock's proposal; I'm in agreement with Doc that the prune/delete wording was confusing, and if it wasn't, I'd probably have voted when the proposal was active. LinkTheLefty (talk) 14:41, April 6, 2024 (EDT)
I voted on the proposal, and without the intent that the redirects would be deleted. I'm mixed on keeping these redirects, but I'm leaning towards doing so per our aforementioned redirect policy. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 18:29, April 7, 2024 (EDT)
I think the redirects should be deleted. Over 60 or 70 already have been, and there's like no reason to want to hold on so tightly to information that can be found more in depth over at SmashWiki. Granted, I never registered there, but I think it's really silly that a select few here don't want to help out there for Super Smash Bros. content in general, which I'm sure SmashWiki would greatly appreciate Super Mario RPG (talk) 10:03, April 8, 2024 (EDT)
The issue there is SmashWiki caters to competitive players rather than casual players. Anyway, I care more about the image history, due to the current "sports game" project I am working on; I want to move game-by-game images of items, Pokemon, etc. to the respective game page, and the list articles only have one image each usually unlike the original pre-merged pages. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:52, April 9, 2024 (EDT)
SmashWiki is a good resource for Super Smash Bros. information, and I have zero problems with it. If you're concerned how content is being handled, talk to them about it. Because the root of why you want to keep Super Smash Bros. on the Super Mario Wiki is "I don't like how they do their coverage." There's literal millions of wikis out there on a wide variety of subjects. So what if, let's say, you didn't like how a Xenoblade wiki handled their content. Are we suddenly going to have full coverage for every Xenoblade game solely due to one or two users' disagreements? Of course not! Super Mario RPG (talk) 14:05, April 9, 2024 (EDT)
You're putting words in my mouth now. This is a tired old debate that you weren't around for the first hundred times; Smash Wiki does not want to be handled in any manner but the overanalytical manner it currently is, and until very recently the extended Mario games had a disproportionately large amount of representation in the series for obvious reasons (since encroached by Fire Emblem for inexplicable reasons). Also, we're doing this on someone's talk page. Just... please stop being so overzealous in advocating outright deletion of things you don't want. (Also, pretty rich you're saying this to the owner of the Triforce Wiki, made solely because of Zelda Wiki's mis-handling.) Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 09:23, April 10, 2024 (EDT)
@Doc von Schmeltwick: There's a conflict over the enactment of the proposal, and you were the first to comment on this very talk page, followed by a few others. I'm sure the site would appreciate if your problem on how other wikis handle their content doesn't become this site's problem as well. From what it sounds, if you were keen on creating a Zelda wiki due to disliking how one wiki handles their coverage, what's stopping you from starting a smash brothers wiki then for the same? This is not supposed to be our problem, nor is your Zelda wiki.
@RHG1951: Anyway, it's taken a few hours, but I've tagged all of the redirects (and a few moveset disambiguation pages) that will be affected by the scope of the proposal while excluding any fighter redirects; this way, it's more clear as to what needs to be pruned/deleted (over 400 things). Sorry about all these messages. Super Mario RPG (talk) 19:01, April 12, 2024 (EDT)


Camwood publicly stated here that the proposal wasn't to delete the redirects. They should be undeleted with history restored. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:07, May 1, 2024 (EDT)
