Question

Hi, while i have been looking through some pages I've noticed the words Sequel and follow-up. What is the difference between a sequel and a follow-up?

-IGGY7735

I don't think there's a very large difference, a sequel is a game that came out to follow-up the game before. So I'd say they are the same, or so similar that it doesn't really matter. Marioguy1 (talk)

Hi, i cant edit my page,can you help?Minimario

You have to be a member of the wiki for a week and make ten mainspace edits before you can create and edit your userpage. It's explained on MarioWiki:Autoconfirmed users. - Walkazo 23:41, 3 February 2011 (EST)

This Big Box

I am a new user. HOW DO I GET THIS ANNOYING BOX OUT OF MY TALK PAGE???!!!??? --MushroomMadness1221

Do you mean the table of contents, or the welcome template? If you don't want a table of contents, edit the page and type __NOTOC__ at the very top of the editing window, in the line right above the welcome template (don't leave a space between them, or there will be empty space above the welcome template). If you don't want the welcome template, simply remove it (edit the page and remove the part that reads {{Welcome2|MushroomMadness1221|Banao}} ). - Walkazo 13:04, 22 February 2011 (EST)

The 'Shroom

Dear Super Mario Wiki,

I have a question. I see that many places on the 'Shroom are vacant, but some are not. Is there any way I could write on the 'Shroom too? I would really like to do the Fake Police Blogger, but it may not be vacant by the time you may answer me. But is there any way I can do the 'Shroom? My name is Nintendo Bro. and I am a "member", or something like that. But however, I just started. So please write back in your free time, Sysops or Administrators? I appreciate it. -Nintendo Bro--

Q

Can anyone give warnings, reminders, ect, or do only Wiki Admins get to do that? I was wondering, that if we can't give warnings, do we report a person to a admin? Boo Who Plays Games Happy Easter!

Anyone can give reminders or warnings, but make sure not to abuse giving them out. MrConcreteDonkey 17:54, 14 April 2011 (EDT)

Also, always use the official templates: personalized warning/notice templates will be deleted (yes, people have tried to make them in the past, iirc). - Walkazo 19:46, 14 April 2011 (EDT)
