Please add a link to the personality quiz you created.

Please add a link to the personality quiz you created. Also, all options and outcomes of the quiz should be covered on the page itself. You can use this page as reference. Axii (talk) 23:22, November 17, 2024 (EST)

Alright, I added the questions and outcomes. I'm not exactly sure how to link to the quiz, though, as I am not entirely sure how adding references works and the only link I can find is a re-upload that has not been archived by the Wayback Machine. Nelsonic (talk) 12:20, November 18, 2024 (EST)

It would help a lot if you added the link to the Flash game on the image file and game pages, so readers know where the information comes from (and that they're official). MarioWiki:Citations explains how to cite an external source if you're using it as a reference, or you can add an "External links" section at the bottom of the article with the link. For file pages, just add the link in the "2=" parameter in the aboutfile summary. Mario JC 20:35, November 24, 2024 (EST)

Image categories

When adding categories to images, they should always be [[Category:(Game title) images]]

Categories that don't end in "images" or "media files" like Category:Browser games do not go on file pages; they're for articles only. Mario JC 06:29, November 18, 2024 (EST)

Again, don't add "Browser games" as an image category. The image category should be "Category:(game) images" (without the parentheses - replace "(game)" with the game title). Mario JC 20:18, November 18, 2024 (EST)

If you create a new game image category, make sure it gets the category Category:Game images. Mario JC 21:10, November 21, 2024 (EST)

Moving files

After moving a file, make sure to update its names on any articles linking to them (listed under "File usage" on the file page), then mark the old name for deletion with {{delete}}. Mario JC 22:25, November 26, 2024 (EST)

Thanks

Luigi says you're a winner! Great job on your edits!

I just wanted to thank you on your coverage towards flash games almost nobody has heard of. Those could've gone under the radar, especially the iQue WarioWare ones. I also want to thank you for being one of the people who inspired me to join the wiki and make my first edit on a talk page so I could document Banpresto arcade games I discovered.

And one more thing, a confession. I didn't actually play Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Joke Spinner. I just saw Supper Mario Broth's article about the game and saw that as an opportunity to write a whole page with the information he had because I thought that was all that was available. (Sorry if that was edit-sniping). And then you told me about FEkids and that lead to a whole other discovery. Thanks for everything.

You're welcome! I'm glad I was able to inspire you to join the wiki, as well. I guess my endless Wayback Machine doom-scrolling is paying off. I'm not really in a position to say whether or not that's edit sniping (I literally just googled the term haha), but I'm sure it's all right. If you would like to play Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Joke Spinner, the archived version from FEKids is available here. Nelsonic (talk) 11:29, December 12, 2024 (EST)
