Image Category Reminder

Hello, NintyMax. 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.

Same thing applies to comic book images. See Category:Images by publication. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 04:33, 1 July 2017 (EDT)

Blue Bowser being referenced in the Super Mario All-Stars Player's Guide

I noticed that you added a very interesting part to the page of Blue Bowser which states that page 62 of the Player's Guide of Super Mario All-Stars refers to Blue Bowser as Bowser's brother. Could you put the text that makes such claim in the citation? A scan of the excerpt of the guide that states it would be fine as well, since it would unambiguously confirm the claim.--Mister Wu (talk) 10:07, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Sure, here it is.--NintyMax (talk) 01:15, 15 September 2017 (EDT)
Thanks a lot! It is interesting, since Blue Bowser isn't in Super Mario All-Stars, him being a result of a palette swap only present in the NES version of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, yet the idea that the first Bowser met was his brother was still around. I am still collecting books about this and when I'll finish translating some critical parts I'll update the main page, but funnily enough, from what I have seen in the first guides of the '80s, they only state that he is another Bowser without clarifying what is his relationship with Bowser, and one even jokes around him being his twin, only to then say that this is a joke. Effectively, when they finally stated that he was Bowser's brother in the books of the '90s, he was portrayed as the younger brother and not a twin in two of three books I read.--Mister Wu (talk) 08:46, 15 September 2017 (EDT)
