Re:New account

Cool, I was going to suggest registering since you seemed to be fairly active already. LinkTheLefty (talk) 03:00, 27 August 2018 (EDT)

Thwomps and junk

There was. It was mentioned at the top. As for the Fat Guys, there's no way that was a mistake, it was a "King" variant. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:45, 27 August 2018 (EDT)

Well they repurposed a generic Boo artwork for Big Boo, so it wouldn't surprise me. This was for the same game that reused Chomp Shark's sprites exactly with no changes at all. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:52, 27 August 2018 (EDT)

Huffin Puffin and Fluffin' Puffin

In my opinion, it should be split or renamed. I actually suggested it a while back, but nothing ever came of it. LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:12, 28 August 2018 (EDT)

Since you're not yet autoconfirmed, I can propose it for you if you'd like. LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:28, 28 August 2018 (EDT)
No, but you should be promoted to autoconfirmed status sometime tomorrow. LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:41, 28 August 2018 (EDT)

Re:Green Toady's Japanese description

From Shogakukan:

フラフラとづき、ふれるとにスピードアップしてちゃんをさらってく。さらわれたらすぐにいかけてうばいそう。

My translation:

Waveringly approaching, contact makes it suddenly speed up and snatch the baby. As soon as he's taken away, let's give chase and return him.

Basically what you'd expect, I should think. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:53, 29 August 2018 (EDT)

I meant that the guides just describe whatever one happens to be pictured. So Shogakukan's Game Boy Advance guide shows and describes Green Toady, but the Super Famicom version has Kamek's Toady and the Yoshi's New Island one has Solo Toady, and they all have the name Kokamek.

Image reuploads

Uploading a new version of an image can be glitchy. Press Ctrl+F5 to refresh your browser and have the most recent image show up. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 13:04, 30 August 2018 (EDT)

You're welcome! Now to delete all those image revisions. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 13:09, 30 August 2018 (EDT)

Additionally, when you move images, be sure to correct the links that lead to it. You can find these links by clicking the "What links here" tool on the sidebar while on the page. The file redirect should also be marked for deletion. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 13:20, 30 August 2018 (EDT)

Sure, I'd just prefer if the file-naming standard of the project was followed. And try to make them distinct. If I have them in a specific pose (such as the open-mouthed Hootie and Dangling Ghost), I'd like if that were still in the image, as it shows more of the enemy than otherwise.

Also

Hello, FanOfYoshi. 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.

For this instance, the files you just uploaded would use Category:Yoshi's New Island Images. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 02:09, 31 August 2018 (EDT)

For images, it's "[[Category:", followed by the name of the game, and then "Images]]". [[Category:Yoshi's New Island Images]], for example. The category link would replace the {{uncategorized}} template's place. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 02:13, 31 August 2018 (EDT)

Signature

Template:Sigbox-raw Hello. Just letting you know that your signature currently violates a few rules outlined in MarioWiki:Signatures:

  • Your signature is too long. It should be shortened to fit in the box above.
  • Your signature should include your username, or a variation/nickname that lets others know it's you (just "Yoshi" isn't very recognisable).
  • You're adding your signature as raw code. Now that you're autoconfirmed, you should copy/paste your signature code to a signature subpage (User:FanOfYoshi/sig), then change your preferences accordingly (in the text field under "Signature", type in {{SUBST:nosubst|User:FanOfYoshi/sig}}, tick the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" check box below it, then hit save; your signature then appears as {{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} plus the timestamp when you sign with ~~~~ instead of the entire code (the individual Yoshi GIF, contributions URL etc.))

More information can be found on the signatures policy page I linked. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 08:02, 1 September 2018 (EDT)

Yep, looks good. Just copy/paste that to your signature page and change your preferences. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 08:08, 1 September 2018 (EDT)
