Pre-Userpedia-Sysop days The Summer of '08

Status: Busy. Very busy. I'm in my last year of highschool, so the teachers are working us like dogs, and my future hinges on good marks. Needless to say, my free-time has nose dived, and while I'm still editing the Wiki as much as possible, I humbly request that no one pays me courtesy-calls for the time being. If you need to talk to me about matters of the Super Mario Wiki or Userpedia, then go ahead, but I'm afraid I don't have time to simply chat anymore...

Userpedia Forums

Hey, could you please clean out your inbox a bit? I've been trying to PM you. Thanks! — Stooben Rooben 18:39, 13 November 2008 (EST)

It wasn't full? ...That's odd. =| Ah, well; thanks for deleting some messages so I could PM you. :) I can't believe someone like you has 2 talk archives; I would've thought you would have 15 archives by now. — Stooben Rooben 04:39, 15 November 2008 (EST)

Happy T-Giving

Happy Thanks Giving Luigibros2

PMs

Well, I think I've officially given up on PMing people on any of Invisionfree's forums. Even my new forum has been giving me trouble with sending and receiving PMs. So, maybe we could just carry on our conversations here? That might make things easier. Stooben Rooben (talk) 16:38, 3 December 2008 (EST)

Well, I'm glad that at least both our computers can handle this place. Yeah, more MarioWiki conversations on the MarioWiki. I like that. :O :P Thanks! I appreciate it. It seemed rather sudden for me, (I'm still surprised when I see the 'manage user rights' option), but Time Q and Stumpers definitely deserved it. It's so funny; when I got promoted, the first thing it reminded me of was when you and 1337 became 'Crats. Great minds think alike. Wow! All those eggs and you guys didn't even know they were there; how crazy! So, are you going to keep the lizards when they hatch? I'd probably keep a few, but that's just me and my weird self. Ah, I'll have a look at it; if it has to do with templates, I gotta see what it is. xD </narcissistic> Well, I guess when it comes down to it, "Stooben" is my favorite nickname. I don't really mind any variations of my name that people use, except for "Rooby/R00by", for obvious reasons. Do you have any nicknames that you prefer to be called? I think I called you "Walko" at one point, but I dunno if you actually minded that or not. Also, I'm gonna use this when I sign my comments here so I don't glitch up your talk page somehow. -- Stooben Rooben (talk) 05:43, 5 December 2008 (EST)

Yeah, it was a real quick change. When I told him some of the Sysop stuff that was going on, and the plan that I had come up with to resolve it, he said "i like this". He wanted proof that Stumpers and Time Q had been nominated, so I showed him a few comments that had been made. He demoted RAP and Cobold to Sysop, and promoted Stumpers, Time Q, and me (unexpectedly :o) to 'crat. I think Phoenix Rider also had a fairly large part in solving it too, so maybe between him and I, and all the other comments that had been made, Steve thought it would be best. Yeah, I always imagined you being the first female MWiki Sysop. Sorry it didn't work out that way. ;_; But hey, you can still be a female Sysop. :D Cool. I'd hate to think of all the little lizards dying; at least your keeping some and saving their lives. (Yes, I am an animal freak.) "Walk"? That's a pretty cool nickname. I never thought to call you that. Dunno why. "Walky" kinda reminds me of "Stooby"; it's a good nickname for lighthearted conversations, but when you get in serious discussions, you don't like to hear a childish nickname used. Yay! Yeah, I remembered that your computer had problems with certain sigs, so I figured I'd be best off with the template used on the proposals page. Me? Nah, I've never had any problems with sigs glitching up, or with ~~~ causing glitches. The only time I have problems with that is when someone forgets to add a </span> to their sig. I usually can't read comments after a sig with that kind of error. x_x -- Stooben Rooben (talk) 15:42, 5 December 2008 (EST)

Yeah, while he did promote Grapes without consent, I think I know why he did it. I had to promote Super-Yoshi at Userpedia as a temporary Sysop to help fight six troll attacks. Only me and DP were on at the time, and even we couldn't handle it. I think he promoted her for the same reasons. True that; you'll still always be the first female Sysop AND 'Crat. within the Mario Wikiverse, which is something to be proud of. I still say you'd make a good Sysop here though; you're contributive, active, and very kind. Good, I'm glad to hear you and your family are kind to animals. :') I always had some sort of bond with animals. 'Scept for bugs; I've had too many bad experiences bugs. ._. I think I remember that actually...was it Uniju that called you "Walk"? I tend to think that's who it was. Yeah, DP likes to call me Stooby, which is cool. Just like S-Y likes to call me St00by. So, I don't mind if you call me "Stooby". Yeah, just to give you an example of how bad the </span> coding screws up my computer: You added </span> without a <nowiki> around it, so I couldn't even access my talk page. I had to enter an address in my address bar that would allow me to edit my talk page. I did that to Stumpers once too, I believe, actually. Yeah, lots of images REALLY screw up my computer. But oddly, animated images don't really affect it whatsoever. o_0 -- Stooben Rooben (talk)

True. Ah, you're right that you need to edit more before you can become a Sysop, but you're on your way. It seems like you've been editing more from what I can tell, so kudos. Yeah, the only bugs I like are the harmless ones like butterflies, crickets, etc. Lol, that was supposed to be an insult? o_0 Oh, no problem. I've ran into that problem several times, especially over at Userpedia. Wow, does my talk page run that slow for you? That's possible; plus the fact that they're in GIF format (which takes up very little space) could have an effect too. Yeah, I saw all your edits. Good job! I don't blame you for staying up though to finish them; I've done that a lot. -- Stooben Rooben (talk)

Re: Mario and Luigi's father

It's great! I think I may have a few tweaks here and there, but it's excellent! You can check Mama Mario's progress here. I'll be uploading the article once it's done. Stumpers! 01:40, 5 December 2008 (EST)

Definitely. I was actually working on Mama Mario when I got your message. Stumpers! 01:14, 6 December 2008 (EST)

Mama Mario is finished, so we can start re-linking the Wiki to the appropriate pages. Thanks for your patience! By the way, if you find links from any page that Mama Mario isn't linking back to, let me know. There are all sorts of references to her across the Super Show that I'm sure I've missed. Stumpers! 17:28, 6 December 2008 (EST)

It's been great working with you, too! I'll probably tinker around with the father article as well... w00t! I've also posted a message on the Mario Cartoons Pipe Project requesting that people help me find any references to Mama that I missed. Anyway, we have a very good number right now: every episode article that linked to Mario and Luigi's Parents is now mentioned on Mama Mario, so I think we've got most of them. Hope to work with you more in the future! Let's finish these articles and get 'em featured if they're long enough. Stumpers! 21:00, 6 December 2008 (EST)

You know what I just realized? The Brooklyn Bridge can be seen in the intro of the Super Show live-action segments, so it's not an implied location... I'll fix that because it was my mistake. Stumpers! 01:11, 7 December 2008 (EST)

RE: Proposal

Oh I definitely don't think you are a stuck-up snob at all!! You are one of the best users on this wiki and I very much enjoy working with you. To be fair, I think I was upset that in the course of like a day suddenly my proposal was going to fail, and I took that out on you, which wasn't right. I'm sure you meant that comment in a light-hearted way, but I blew it out of proportion. That doesn't mean it was the best comment to make, because potentially it could offend certain users. But still, I shouldn't have made it such a big deal and for that I am sorry. I understand where you are coming from now, and I only meant to suggest that without recognition, Smash Bros. fans may feel less included in the greater Mario community, not that they think Smash Bros. should be the focus of this wiki. I believe we should open up an inclusive community as possible while still holding Mario as our center. While I am a firm believer in an each element should have an article philosophy, I will stand by the proposal as it has passed. Actually, I realized what needed to be done was to change the Adventure Mode Enemies and Subspace Army articles into something more like List of Implied Characters, where you try to have as much content as possible for each entry. As long as the redirects lead to their respective sections in the bigger article, having individual articles for each enemy is not as important, as each section can functionally act as its own article. I am less opposed to merging articles as long as content is not lost, which unfortunately did not happen the first time around. So anyways, no worries. We're cool. =) -- Son of Suns (talk)

Err...

My short attention span has gotten in my way again. Did I respond to the last message you gave me? I remember responding to quite a few of them, but I don't know if you wrote another one and I missed it. Stooben Rooben (talk) 20:27, 11 January 2009 (EST)

Of course I forgot. XP When I get the chance, I'll look through my archives to find the message and reply to it. Swamped? That's a shame. :( Being an Administrator on a bunch of sites (wikis and forums) can be a real drag if I'm gone for a day or more. There's so much to catch up with and so little time to do it in. As long as I stay on everyday, I'm usually pretty good though. In other news, how have you been? -- Stooben Rooben (talk) 22:29, 15 January 2009 (EST)

Despite your hectic school schedule, it seems like you've been able to get on everyday, be it here, Userpedia, or it's forums. (Although, I have to say that the UP Forums are on the hinges of death without Uniju, DP, or SmartyGuy there. Palkia and I are really the only ones that post as much as possible there.) You were sick? D: Ugh, that's horrible. You're doing better now, though, right? I hope so. You saved your lizard? Kudos! That's gonna earn you some massive good karma. Plus, doing calculus required a certain amount of patience as diligence, so that should pay off too. :D -- Stooben Rooben (talk) 02:54, 17 January 2009 (EST)

Hai!

Oh hi Walk, it's me, RAP. Oh don't worry about me, my vocabulary is already dead down (after a few weeks of crat' demotion); so you don't need to worry about "decoding" my sentences just to use your mind (no offense, you have a scientific mind to use :3) Also, I won't be talking to you very much from time to time, and that the unusual things about me; don't worry about that as well... How are you doing today? What about life since we haven't talked each other for months...? But most likely, how come you came to the wiki up this late? ;o A lot of things had changed, including me! For me, it's like I'm pretty much alone in the wiki; but has a few leftover friends which I will not mention (don't ask). Pretty much today I got Verizon FiOZ (internet and cable switch), hooray!!!!! I can finally watch G4 in my own room! The bad news? For the internet provider, I can't get into the #mariowiki chatroom! ;_; Someone has to fix that. :O Onto the wiki stuff... OK, I got like 30 THINGS TO DO in the wiki from my to-do list, and I'm afraid the list's going to have more things to do. Some of them is mostly personal stuff, but some others... it sounds like that it will take a month or two to complete one thing there. I'm afraid that I won't do the things in the wiki at all... :< I hope this comment isn't a distraction to you (since I can tell that your editing in the wiki), and if you see DP; say "Hi" for me. RAP... After I lost 1/4 of my vocabulary, I pretty much sound like Retro RAP; the fun version of me!! :3

Ah... I see, ;o People don't talk to you because of that status bar. XP Even tho, you seem to come to the wiki almost all the time. Me being alone? Heh, while I usually edit the pages by adding new images like the Bahamutt, Frog Coin, and the S.S. Brass image, and still had 30 things to do... I'm mostly in chatroom all the time, talking to my closer friends even in the late night (since the other users have different time zones). And even though I am not fully respected anymore (except for a few closer friends), I have access to some of the hidden goods that should be added to the wiki ASAP. If people in the wiki won't talk to me nicely, then why bother getting the goods from me if you already dislike me?! Yep... so... if you want to know some of the things I'm going to do, *grabs the to-do list*

• Links!? MAJOR RENEWAL! (the page duh, XP)
• Try to finish rewriting all MP1 mini-game articles.
• Check all the images from start to finish (takes a long time!) Use watchlist to keep track of all images.
• Bad glossary page = "I needZ an articlE upgrade kitz."
• Learn more about the wiki syntax for a better result.

That's all I can give you. ;o RAP... ...hmmm, I feel like working with someone more in the wiki, St00by perhaps... :3

Sysop!

Congrats, Walkazo! You have been promoted to Sysop! Keep up your awesome work on this wiki. Also, be sure to get an account on the Forums, if you'd like to see what's going on in the Sysop Board! =) — Stooben Rooben 23:54, 20 January 2009 (EST)

Congratulations! Super-Yoshi^{Talk? C???}
