Candidates and Voting
Meta Knight (talk) / Superchao (talk)
Greetings everyone, I am here running again along with Superchao (talk) as Sub-Director. Last year, I promised that this year would be used to help the project feel more relaxing, as 2016 had a lot of hardships in it. Looking back, I've noticed that throughout the year, activity has grown. More people are voting in polls, we have plenty of new writers, and it is such a wonderful thing to see the growth of this project. I'm sure Super Mario Odyssey has been a factor in the influx of new users, but I like to think that I have helped The 'Shroom grow in some way.
I would like to run The 'Shroom again to continue this new wave. I do not have anything huge planned, but there will be the usual summer and holiday specials though. If there's changes that need to be made, I am open to new ideas, such as the merging of User and 'Shroom Awards ceremonies to one. I have also done my best to always be prepared. We were able to get Issue 124 together in a day when our staff wiki went down, and I thank Superchao, and the rest of the staff for being able to handle it. Communication is important, and I feel that this team keeps the balance that this project requires.
The 'Shroom is truly something special in this community. It has been running for over 10 years, and is something that I see people look forward to every month. I would love to be able to take another year as Director, and continue to help the project grow within the community. Thank you for considering me again and thanks for reading.

draggadonYoshi (talk) / ArchagentEverlasting (talk)
Hello, this is draggadonYoshi (talk), and I-along with my running mate ArchagentEverlasting (talk) would love to have the honor of running the 'Shroom this year. Many of you may not recognize me, because I have only been part of the community for around a week now. However, I was an avid 'Shroom reader (and still am), which is what first drew me into the Super Mario Wiki and the greater community and of course, was what made me join here.
While I have not yet written or done any work for the 'Shroom, ArchagentEverlasting has been writing the Travel Guide section for a few months at this point and like me, is also interested in getting involved with the politics of the 'Shroom. Our team may not be as experienced as you would hope for in this position but I can assure you that we will do a great job of running the newsletter in the coming year.
Like Meta Knight's campaign, we don't have any special plans, and all of the features and traditions that you know and love about the 'Shroom will remain. It will continue to be integrated with the polls on the wiki's main page, and the Mario awards; we also plan to include more people to be involved the 'Shroom to enrich this. We are also open to any and all suggestions and new ideas that community members may have, and with your help, we can continue to keep up the 'Shroom as a key feature of our website dedicated to all things Mario. Thank you for reading and considering our campaign!
