Japanese
So you can attempt to translate Japanese? Can you translate what the Dark Fawful Bug says to Mario and Luigi after being beat in this video here?:[1]--fawfulfury65 16:37, 6 August 2009 (EDT)fawfulfury65

Reminder
The title scared you, I know. Anyhow, if you click that title, it will bring you to a page for admins, patrollers, SMB and me to discuss my new version of the Reminder template. I have been convinced by Walkazo not to bring the template into the proposals page so, I need blocker+SMB feedback. Marioguy1 (talk)

Help
Hi,
How can I add myself to the "n" category on [page], please ? Koopalmier 21:28, 15 August 2009 (EDT)
- Also categorized as help; Could you please add a <br> to {{Quote}}? It is such a minor change that I don't think I need to call a meeting. Here are two good reasons:
- Reducing server stress on the wiki. If you add that br, we will be able to delete the enter that is currently slowing the wiki therefore decreasing both downtime and loading time.
- Fixing articles of mistakes. Say a user type {{quote|bla|jfgjf|kff}}
'''jfjfjf''' is a character.... See how it turns out (and if you're wondering I did put an enter there) so it wouldn't do what is happening in Meta Knight. Marioguy1 (talk)

Hey 2257, could you please delete the Neeku article? It is nonsense and vandalism. · SMB (Talk) · 20:06, 17 August 2009 (EDT)

Youtube vids
Yoshi! Hey i saw you were a sysop so can i ask you whether you can extend the youtube vids only to the Shroom Music and Artwork Music bit as it will make it look better and easier to listen to rather than clicking on a link. Thanks
THanks :)

WarioLoaf
Was about to ask you to ban him infinitely, but there you go already. Moving other user's talk pages is enough, I'd say. I don't think it should be possible for anybody other than the userspace's owner should have permission to do that. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 12:51, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
- Oh crap, we fixed the Main Page talk at the same time and completely messed it up :-/ - Cobold (talk · contribs) 13:01, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
Quote
Could you please add a second <br> to {{Quote}} after the current <br> that is there? Just having one break makes it look weird when the quote is put without an enter on the article and to add an enter would be to increase server stress and although another break would cause some stress, 1+1+1+1+1+1+1...=20 is more than 4=4. I'm not saying you have to do it I'm just asking if you could please do it because of my logic, yours truly, Marioguy1 (talk)
Delete
You probably saw that vandal attack so now I ask you to delete those redirects, I've already marked about fifty for deletion, if you could please delete them before other users come on and see them, I know this may be a lot to ask from you but you're the only admin (other than Yoshario) on right now, could you pleeeease delete them? Thanks a bunch ( | )
- Thanks so much! I think it's all gone now. All that's left is to delete the vandal's talk page and replace his userpage with {{Block}}. Could you please do that, it would be great if you could? ( | )
I have a question
For Uploading images, if I alter a game character picture, do I put a copyright on it? Funky K 38
- Thanks!
- Okay, so I'm uploading a pic, but I'm having a bit of trouble. It says the file type is unwanted on the wiki, what do I do?
- The file is BMP. I uploaded a different picture of it, but it doesn't look as good as I want it to look.
- Okay, so I'm uploading a pic, but I'm having a bit of trouble. It says the file type is unwanted on the wiki, what do I do?
So how do I do that?
- Awesome, Thanks.
Userpedia
I am asking all admins/patrollers/former admins/former patrollers with articles on userpedia that are nonexistant or stubs about their editing history and you fall in to that category. So basically, how did you find this wiki, why did you join, what would you consider your specialty? Tell me more if you want but please at least tell me something. Marioguy1 (talk)
Dark Star Core
And I quote from the guide "Though Bowser defeated Dark Fawful, the Dark Star has not forgotten his imprint. When the Dark Star core is swallowed by Bowser during his brawl with Dark Bower, it conjures up Fawful's familiar mug and a set of spidery legs,". The Dark Star Core is basically copying Fawful's appearance. SJ derp :P
- I was talking about the final battle...oh well. I think I should also note this thing's name is Dark Fawful until it's swallowed by Dark Bowser, and then it's called the Dark Star Core after that, which I find weird...I'm confused.... SJ derp :P
- Fawful doesn't die there, which is why I think that's odd, because Fawful comes back after the battle, or maybe when Dark Fawful got eaten he got fused with the rest of the dark power? SJ derp :P
- Yeah. Anyway, I know for sure that "Dark Fawful Bug" isn't the official name. It's for sure Dark Fawful, though. Anyway, the main reason I have "Dark Star Core" is because it's basically controlling Fawful in addition to powering Dark Bowser. SJ derp :P

Why are you going to delete Wiki Adventure? Many users like it and they would be really sad to find it gone. Also it took me a REALLY long time to type all that down, and I can't memorize the story. So please don't delete Wiki Adventure.
Sigh! What do you mean elsewhere. There is no elsewhere to put it!!!!!! Plus what about the other storys out there. You don't see those being nominated for the trash!!!!!!!
- O X(
DON'T TAZE ME!
Hey,don't delete mine YET,I'm planing to put it in Userpedia.I'm talking about the story,but UP said to wait until my account is registered.
ɮ Ø Ø ɱ Λ П™I'll tell you when
HACKED!
2257, people's pages are getting hacked and some really inappropriate pictures are on userpages, can you do something?? Funky K 38
- All right, thanks. I will.
- Just to let you know, I'm not gonna fight you for my subpages. Do what you think is right, and if I disagree, I'll let you know.
- Do you think we should put something about this somewhere? About the hacker, I mean. Right when he put those images on we had more guests on than we ever do. What are they going to think?
- Just to let you know, I'm not gonna fight you for my subpages. Do what you think is right, and if I disagree, I'll let you know.
Okay, makes sense.
- Hey, 2257, when I check the recent changes page, I notice that my talk page is in bold and it's the only one in bold.
- Oh. Again, that makes sense. (i really feel stupid now...)
Hey, 2257, I think it's time to change the Did You Know? box on the main page. Those facts have been up there almost two months.
- I didn't know that (that was terrible, sorry...). I thought only 'sops could edit the main page. But if it's a template, I guess it's open to everyone.
- Hey, 2257, can you delete this page for me?
I don't need it and it's just eating up space now. Funky K 38
- Hey, it's cool, I don't care when you do it as long as you do it. :)
Ok
Ok I will not fight with you about the Wiki Adventure thing but can you keep it up until I can copy and paste it to Userpedia? Please!
Where do I get my password on Userpedia? from the same.
Dark Fawful
Hi. The poll you voted on passed (with 6 users agreeing) and a Dark Fawful article was created. Thank you for your vote. - Gabumon(talk) 16:16, 26 September 2009 (EDT)
- Well, it kinda was my job since I was the creator of the poll after Toadette 4evur suggested a change :3 . It would be nice however, if someone could check the article's correctness. I'm not sure if everything is alright, since I had to rewrite some parts to fit together, and I'm not that knowledgeable about the game. - Gabumon(talk) 16:34, 26 September 2009 (EDT)
Really
Yeah!
U may delete.
PMTTYD Beta
Since I got my Gamecube back, I started playing the beta TTYD again. I actually seemed to have forgotten quite a few things that were in it. :O So, I figured I'd collaborate with you on this again to see if we can get somewhere. When you were searching through the beta elements, did you happen to find any sprites — or any indication, for that matter — of a red or blue coin? Because they're in the beta I have. — Stooben Rooben 14:37, 29 September 2009 (EDT)
- Visually, not that I can tell. There's a few other items that probably wouldn't show up in the ROM then, such as a purple and a gold mushroom, (I can't remember what they're called; I haven't made it that far in the game again), and some other items. ...Do you know if there's a way I can rip some of the sprites from the actual GameCube disk? I've tried hacking it, but the game always freezes up and shows a screen that says "PROTECTED DISK". — Stooben Rooben 15:23, 29 September 2009 (EDT)
- A capture card, eh? I'll see if I can get one of those. (If my parents will let me. >_>) And yeah, the red and blue coins act the same as they did in SM64, as far as how many coins they add to your total. You have to earn them different ways, though. Which reminds me, I think there's another type of coin in the game that I could never actually access. I don't know what it does or what it looks like, but there's certain passages -- like the one in Gloomtail's lair -- that have shadows on the ground, and they're kind of coin-shaped. — Stooben Rooben 00:40, 30 September 2009 (EDT)
- Hm, it's possible that it could be an orange coin. That certainly would be a good find! I'm going to try to keep hacking the disk so I can find out everything I possibly can. Because, I just noticed, the tattle log has an additional two pages that are completely blank. They have no room for entries at all, which makes me think there may be more hidden enemies inside the game. I just don't get why Nintendo took so much out of the beta version when they made the final cut. The game definitely would have been a lot better. The only thing I can think of as to why they would have done that is the loading time. It takes a very long time to load cinemas and alternate screens/rooms, which is probably because there's so much info on the disk. — Stooben Rooben 00:49, 30 September 2009 (EDT)
- Well, Action Replay does absolutely nothing to the disk. But a gaming nerd I know -- he's been trying to help me hack this thing too -- said that there's a way to add a file to the GameCube memory card that apparently "rips open" the game's files, making all of them completely accessible. I have know idea if this is even true though. Do you know of any good ways to hack things? I usually use Action Replay or random button combinations that end up unlocking and decoding stuff. I'm no pro at this. :P — Stooben Rooben 01:00, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

- Okay, I just thought it looked odd. Thanks anyways!
Yeah
Clearly you were not happy with how the first proposal I made was handled. Please look into the new one. I'll be on at some point (obviously) to discuss it with you and others interested.FD09
Name in Other Languages (Spanish) Templates
Hey,Twentytwofiftyseven,I have a question,in the new templates it says "EU Spanish" and "NA Spanish",this one shouldn't say "American Spanish"?,Because the American Spanish is most used in South America (Ecuador,Colombia,Peru,Bolivia,Uruguay,Chile,Argentina,Venezuela,etc.),Center America (Panama,El Salvador,Nicaragua,etc.),and for last North America (Mexico),and because that I think that it should say "SA Spanish" or "American Spanish".Please answer me this dude =D--MATEOELBACAN 18:50, 4 November 2009 (EST)
Hmm..But what's mean NOA and NOE?,Also I have another question,Would go first the American Names? (Because if you pay attention there is more people in America than in Europe)--MATEOELBACAN 15:07, 5 November 2009 (EST)
I think "Latin american Spanish" is more precise --™ The 'Shroom 15:51, 5 November 2009 (EST)
You are right,but that title is too long =/,I think that "American Spanish" is the better option,also if we do this we should change the EU Spanish for European Spanish (and maybe the french with NA/EU French for American/European French Respectibly.--MATEOELBACAN 19:02, 5 November 2009 (EST)
Hmm..No idea then,but it's okay. --MATEOELBACAN 21:43, 5 November 2009 (EST)
But I have another question,Why the German Names go before the Spanish names?,because I think there are more Spanish people than German people..--MATEOELBACAN 22:06, 5 November 2009 (EST)
Oh,I see,well then I should talk to him,thanks for your time :D--MATEOELBACAN 22:38, 5 November 2009 (EST)

Re: Koopa Taxonomy
Thanks for asking! I'm still working on the project, but I don't have anywhere to put it. I might join the Mariology site run out of TMK, but after experiencing a perfect set-up like I had here, it's hard to get enthusiastic about taking the project elsewhere. Don't worry, though: once I'm done the taxonomy, I will post it somewhere, and I'll be sure to tell you where to find it! It might take a few more months though: without the MWiki articles, I'm going to have to expand all the exposition about the species, and now that I'm finally getting some formal education about evolution and classification, I'm going to go back and reevaluate the whole thing. - Walkazo 21:51, 13 November 2009 (EST)

Hi
Hello 2257. :) I'm actually online for once. SJ derp :P
- I'm fine, though theatre, school, homework, facebook,and the AnimeSuki forums have taken over my life, so I'm not on here much anymore. XD How have you been? SJ derp :P
- I wish that a Mario Party 9 or a Mario Volleyball game would be announced. That'd make my interest in Mario skyrocket for a while, thus I'd be here more often. :P SJ derp :P
- I don't really even play the 1st SMG so I'm not that excited 2nd SMG. :P Now if there was a Mario Volleyball game, I would play it to death. :P SJ derp :P
- I have the 1st SMG, I just never play it. I got bored after I beat it. :P As for Volleyball, I think I'm somewhat decent. I've gone to my mom's volleyball practices since I was in diapers, though. :P Right now I just wanna master the Jump-Serve. :) SJ derp :P
- I jump serve is a more powerful version of a serve. You basically throw up the ball, get a running start then jump up and hit it. Easier said than done, though. And I really haven't seen anything that "new". There's Umineko no Naku Koro ni, but I've played the Visual Novels so I just watch it to compare it to the original VN. :P SJ derp :P

Made in Ore Again
Hello, Twentytwofiftyseven, maybe you can help me with the Made in Ore website again? First, I don't get what the meaning of the current contest is. And the other problem is the most recent "famous person." Japanese Wikipedia gives the occupation of "Ōchan" as "『ファミ通DS+Wii』おたよりくらぶキャラクター" (Otayori Club character?), what does that mean? Thanks in advance! --Grandy02 12:47, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- Thanks for answer. But I'm still not sure what it means. That one simply can make a microgame without special requirements this time? And what do you think should I write into the "Theme" column in the contest table? "Make it yourself"? --Grandy02 13:39, 16 December 2009 (EST)

WarioWare Person
Hello again. Maybe you have noticed the article on the WarioWare desginer Ko Takeuchi I wrote. I tried to get every relevant piece of information I could find on the Internet - usually at Western websites. However, there is one particular interview in Japanese that might reveal even more facts about this person. No, I don't want you to write up a translation of the whole interview, that would be too much. I ran the interview through three different translators and took the information from the understandable parts. Maybe you could help me on this and confirm if the info is true? Only if you want, of course, I don't know how much time it would consume. Anyway, here is what I got from the translations (and where help is needed):
- Question 1
- Ko Takeuchi joined Nintendo in 2000.
- First game he was involved with is a Hamtaro game (in the Kikizo interview, he said Wario Land 4, though, but the Hamtaro game is older). His job was the assistant director.
- Next game was Wario Land 4, for which he made the background graphics.
- He designed the characters for WarioWare (already known).
- ! I don't understand why he did choose the job as a game designer.
- Takeuchi studied cartooning in the United States (already known).
- After his return to Japan, he applied to different companies related to visual arts, including at least one game company (Warp). He entered the video game industry this way.
- Question 2
- ! What does he say about Hiroji Kiyotake (designer of Wario)?
- Question 3
- He sees the game Mother as a masterpiece (or does he mean the series as a whole?).
- ! What does he say about character design?
- Question 4
- ! His character designs are often based on real people (not sure about that, the translations were a bit odd).
- When a new character idea comes to his mind, he draws it into a small sketch book.
- ! Nintendo is a "gold mine" of character ideas, what is exactly meant?
- Question 5
- ! I don't really understand at all what the bad translations say. :-(
Maybe that is too much work, especially the parts with the exclamation mark. I'd already be happy if you could confirm if the "translated" parts are alright. It's your choice, you already helped me a lot. Thanks in advance. --Grandy02 08:04, 20 December 2009 (EST)
- Thank you very much for your effort! That already helps! :-) I checked the category you told me, and one user (Vellidragon) is able to contribute with an advanced level of Japanese (and German is even her native language, too), I might ask her for help in the future. For the lines without the exclamation marks that you haven't commented, can I assume that the info is correct? Again, thanks for your help! --Grandy02 12:44, 22 December 2009 (EST)
Wario Land 4 Enemies
Hello, you have moved back several Wario Land 4 enemy articles back to their Japanese names which were previously moved by Mecha-Boss Unit. He said it's from an official English guide, yet I still need a confirmation for the guide's existence. Shouldn't we wait for that (even though I have to admit that it is odd that all the years before nobody has used these names on the Internet when they are official and that I never read about that guide)? --Grandy02 12:15, 24 December 2009 (EST)
- The conversation with Mecha-Boss Unit has ended. He told that the guide doesn't have an entry at Amazon because they "just took the entry off." I couldn't find any information on the Internet, which isn't surprising since the guide "sold out in 6 minutes" according to him. So we still don't have a confirmation, but it is notable that a name just made up by me ("Hammer Warrior") is coincidentally also the name in said guide. What do you think? --Grandy02 14:14, 24 December 2009 (EST)
Hello
Hi there, just thought I'd let you know I'm using your system for talk page proposals. I thought it would be impolite to just steal it. ;) So thank you very much! .
Hey
You seem to have vanished without a single trace. It would be great to hear from you again. We miss you, buddy. - Gabumon(talk) 05:02, 18 January 2010 (EST)
Retiring?
I've heard that you're leaving for GameFAQs. Is this true?
