Well, that's my talk page (surprise, surprise), and if you wanna talk, please do so! Just a few rules.

• Please always add a header if you start a new topic.
• If you feel the need of doing so, you may send me pointless messages such as "Hi!", but don't expect me to answer.
• Freedom of speech, so say what you want. (I don't care about flaming and such, but the community does, so better refrain from doing so :P)
• If you want to put images on this page, please make sure they're small enough. Or even better, just put a link to it rather than the image itself.
• Generally I'll answer on this page (in order to make the discussion traceable), but sometimes I'll also answer on your page (in order to make sure you read the message). So please check this page if you don't get a message on your page.
• Remember to sign with ~~~(~), don't remove anything from this page, and the other usual blabla.
• That's it.

Mario

Hey Time Q, I'm rewriting the History section of Mario, but do the games necessarily have to be in strict chronological order, or can it be divided into series? (i.e. Mario & Luigi series, Paper Mario series) The series' sub-sections would be chronologically ordered by release date of the first game in the series. --Garlic Man (talk)

Yes, they should be ordered by and divided into series, I think it's all described here. Please adhere to those guidelines, and remember to include each appearance there, that is such in "other media" as well. I know this is a lot of work :( Time Questions 15:51, 17 January 2010 (EST)

Red Links

Real quick, can you go into the user page of this banned user and get rid of the red links? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Thanks. By the way, there's also other useless red links that are unable to be removed by me. I would really appreciate it if you could remove those red links. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

I know, I know. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Re: Wii

Oh. Sorry about that; I didn't see a rule about using EST time and the wiki's default clock is GMT, so I had assumed it would be ok. Why Eastern time and not GMT though? --Garlic Man (talk) (Also, should I change everything back?)

I guess. IMO, I think GMT is better as a sort of "universal" time (somewhat like how we name articles based on the first English name, not necessarily the American, i.e. Mario Smash Football). Would I have to propose a proposal, or just mention it on the MW:FA talk page, if I were to want to change(or establish, seeing that there's no clear indication at the moment) the time zone system? --Garlic Man (talk)

OK. Thanks for the advice. --Garlic Man (talk)

So the proposal has passed, but how should I change the "localtime" thing that appears on the proposal page to GMT? Is it possible? --Marcelagus (T • C • E)

Sorry, I have no idea... Time Questions 01:25, 11 February 2010 (EST)

Hm

Why can't I remove that if their reasoning is not valid. Also, why aren't you addressing the fact I already resolved the things you voted to remove the article from featured status for? All of them? They're telling me the article has problems, but they're not even clarifying where the problems are, I already dealt with the things they brought up. ForeverDaisy09 19:08, 7 February 2010 (EST)

If you think that a proposal to remove a vote is invalid than you should discuss it with the proposer rather than just removing it when you think it's invalid. It might be considered valid by others. I need to have a closer look at the article before I can tell whether I think it has more problems. Time Questions 19:16, 7 February 2010 (EST)

Edo is ignoring my messages

Just like I said to Reversinator, I told him to him to Edo to reply for me. Can you tell him to reply to me? HannukahYoshi

Have you even tried contacting him on his talk page lately? I fear I can't do anything you can't do. Time Questions 08:47, 9 February 2010 (EST)

I tried to but he just ignored me then so i'm so depressed. HannukahYoshi

I think you should try it again. Perhaps he just missed your message. I don't think he would simply ignore you. Time Questions 08:55, 9 February 2010 (EST)

I contacted him again but he continued to ignore after the friend request for him. I think he's offline right now. If he doesn't talk to me I will strongly be depressed. HannukahYoshi

Yes, he is currently offline. Seriously, there's no need to be depressed. I'm sure he will reply to your message as soon as he's online. Time Questions 09:06, 9 February 2010 (EST)

Okay. Thanks.:D HannukahYoshi

I apologize, I didn't intend to ignore you. I think I missed your message, when I was checking my talk page. Maybe I mistook your signature for my own in affect. I left a message at your talk page. Sorry, It won't happen again. - Gabumon^(talk) 16:56, 9 February 2010 (EST)

Red Link

Since you didn't know, I'm trying to get rid of useless broken links. I've been doing it for quite a while, and Knife doesn't mind at all. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

But I do, since you altered the content of my comment. Stop that please. And as already said, this red link does no harm at all. Time Questions 13:07, 14 February 2010 (EST)

But if Knife and Edofenrir approve of what I'm doing, then why can't you? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Because it was my comment whose content you altered. Altering other people's comments is an absolute no-no on this wiki. Why don't you use {{fakelink}}? I would accept that. Time Questions 10:26, 15 February 2010 (EST)

I also suggested using fakelink or removing the link, rather than editing the actual words of the comment. :-/ Marcelagus (T • C • E)

Hey

It's been a while since I last talked to you on here. SJ derp :P

Hi, true. You're not really active here anymore, right? Time Questions 10:36, 20 February 2010 (EST)

Not as much as I'd like to me. A lot of stuff has been happening lately (and unfortunately, it wasn't really good), but things are getting better. One of my friends has been helping me through it. :) Hopefully things get back to normal soon. XD So what's new? SJ derp :P

Yeah, I too hope things will get better for you. As for me, I'm fine, my semester break just started a week ago, so I have quite a lot spare time at the moment, which is good. Time Questions 10:45, 20 February 2010 (EST)

I'm almost 5/8 through the school year. Yayz! High School has way too much drama. >.> SJ derp :P

Drama? Time Questions 10:52, 20 February 2010 (EST)

Basically everyone freaking out about their problems in life. For example, Joe recently broke up with Sally so now Sally's freaking out and then she finds out that Joe is dating her best friend, Tina. Now Sally is mad at Tina for "stealing" her boyfriend and Tina keeps telling Sally to get over it. That kind of stuff. It's really annoying after a while. Especially when you end up being caught in it when you don't want to. :/ SJ derp :P

OMG, sounds like the plot of a really bad soap-opera... My sympathy. Time Questions 10:59, 20 February 2010 (EST)

While you're deleting pages...

How about deleting Mustache? It's just like Mario's Shirt, in the sense it's something trivial that serves no purpose. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

It serves purpose in the M&L series. Stache Points are just as important as Health Points, Flower Points, and Badge Points. No, it's not "just like" Mario's shirt. Marcelagus (T • C • E)

Censorship

Sorry about that. Not only did I forget there was a rule about not being allowed to censor things, I also forgot that there is no rule that states that users are not allowed to make derogatory/offensive comments about peoples' nations and cultures. Oops. --Marcelagus (T • C • E)

FIs

OK, I was looking through the FI Archive and I noticed a massive amount of images (46 to be exact) and I think that this is way too many for one archive as it slows up the page. I think we should archive after either 20, 25, 30 or 40 FIs pass. 20 would make many archives but they would be easy to browse through, plus that's what we do with proposals. 25 is a larger archive than 20 and it easily adds into 100 so you can pinpoint your image archive easier. 30 is basically the middle number and it's not too high or too low. 40 is a very big number but it wouldn't make that many archives plus we wouldn't have to archive as often. Try to get back ASAP Marioguy1 (talk)

I agree, the archives should be split. I think 20 images per archive is a fair number. Time Questions 18:41, 2 March 2010 (EST)

Question

I can't seem to edit my sig! GalacticPetey

Hm, it says that it "has been locked so that only users with sysop privileges can edit it, because it is included in the following cascade-protected page: MarioWiki:The 'Shroom/Single/XXXII". I don't know what that means. Do you? Time Questions 08:06, 5 March 2010 (EST)

I know. It means that that page was cascade-protected, and articles that were linked to on that page are also cascade-protected as a result. How do I know this? The same thing happened to Marcelagus. How do you solve this? By making the cascade-protected page just regular protected. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Thank you. I removed the cascade protection, so GalacticPetey should be able to edit his sig again. Time Questions 09:31, 5 March 2010 (EST)

What

Did you mean to leave that to someone else? I don't know what you're talking about at all. ForeverDaisy09 15:54, 5 March 2010 (EST)

It must've happened when I copied the proposal template from one page to the other. Simple mistake. ForeverDaisy09 20:43, 5 March 2010 (EST)

Sockvandal

A vandal by the name of Jermboy271 has a near identical name to a previous vandal, and is also creating fan-content. So, should you ban him for sockpuppteting and vandelizing? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Yeah, they share the same IP, so I blocked him. Thanks. Time Questions 10:16, 7 March 2010 (EST)

Hi!Can you please,please tell me how to make user talk archives?Count Bonsula I need blood...

It's easy: Simply move your talk page to a page called "User talk:Mr bones/Archive 1". Your actual talk page will redirect to the archive then. In order to avoid this, remove the redirect command and replace it with whatever should be on your fresh talk page. Remember to add a link to the archives. Time Questions 14:10, 15 April 2010 (EDT)

Can you please tell me why that 3d guy Girrtacos has the right to have more than 4 personal images?Count Bonsula I need blood...

Actually, all the images on his or her page seem to be linked to from an external website which is perfectly okay. "Personal images" are just those images that you upload onto this wiki, which (s)he didn't do, as far as I can see. Time Questions 03:26, 16 April 2010 (EDT)

Redirect Deletion

If you go to Talk:Cameos, you'll see a list of redirect. A list of unnecessary redirects. Can you delete those redirects? Also, a couple of them are in areas that are protected (Flicky, Chaos, Bruce Lee). Can you remove those too? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Hm, those redirects take forever for me to load, so I'll see if it works tomorrow. If you find someone else to delete them before I can, I won't be sad either :P Time Questions 13:40, 18 April 2010 (EDT)

I can wait. And speaking of links in protected areas, I have been looking at Wanted Pages. More specifically, wanted pages that do not deserve an article. Most of these links, however, are stuck on either archives or userpages. Whenever you can, could you remove/fix them? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

....

First off, I'm really sorry about above. Second, I archived it because the calendar on my computer said it was the 20th already. And besides, it's already been extended. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

So when it's archived, it won't be listed as NO QUORUM? Because there's been two recent previous proposals that have been listed as no quorum (one of which was actually deleted). What do we do about them? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Ah, I see. Well, the proposals I mentioned do have three or less voters, so I guess they stay as No Quorum. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Is it true that only admins can send warnings to users?Count Bonsula I need blood...

As far as I know, there is not really a policy about this, and in fact I believe users may send warnings if they're really warrantable - but I agree with Bloc Partier that the warning you sent to TheUltimateKoopa was probably too strict. Time Questions 13:57, 29 April 2010 (EDT)

Well he had two reminders.And KS3 sent a reminder to firebabyluigi which was not nessecaryCount Bonsula I need blood...

His two reminders had nothing to do with swearing (otherwise you would be right in giving him a warning, but this is done only if the same policy is violated multiple times). As for firebabyluigi, I can't find a user with this name. Can you link me to their userpage? Time Questions 14:09, 29 April 2010 (EDT)

You have to look to his talk page history.Reversinator did delete the warning after I told him.As for the link here is it User Talk:FireBabyLuigi11.Count Bonsula I need blood...

That's right, but he has been told not to do this again, and I think now it's fine. You were given a reminder by Bloc Partier for giving out warnings, but don't worry: remember a reminder is really just a way to inform you. It's by no way worse than simply telling you about a rule you didn't know without using the reminder template. Time Questions 14:19, 29 April 2010 (EDT)

Question about a Warning

Tucayo added the UR MR GAY piece of information to Super Mario Galaxy. I removed it, calling the edit "Pretty stupid". Now, Tucayo gave me a warning for calling him stupid. Is that valid? Also, he said the admins agreed to add it. Is that true? I just want to know. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

I'd say the warning is invalid. Calling the edit "Pretty stupid" probably was kind of rude, but I don't think he can give you a warning for that. It's just my opinion, though, I'll ask the other sysops. As for the claim that the admins agreed to add the information: I didn't take part in such a discussion, though this doesn't necessarily mean that it didn't happen. I'll check and then tell you. Time Questions 08:03, 11 May 2010 (EDT)

Thank you, Time Q. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

The discussion in question took place in the admin-only channel on chat amongst the admins present there. And to further answer your question: Yes, he can give you a warning when you were repeatedly asked to watch your tone in your edit summaries, which was the case, if I am informed correctly. I also had another user complaining about your rudeness shortly after (I won't say that user's name unless he decides to give it away himself). I'm going to ask you one more time: Be a little more thoughtful about what you put in your edit summaries. Being honest and being rude are two entirely different things. - Gabumon^(talk) 11:21, 11 May 2010 (EDT)
