RE: SMS Minor Locations
There was actually a proposal to merge the similar Mario 64 sub-areas to their corresponding courses, so it'd be best to create another proposal that decides which areas get articles, maybe including both Sunshine and 64. Personally, looking at Casino Delfino and Sand Cabana, I don't see how this would be a bad idea. Mario JC 21:08, October 23, 2020 (EDT)
- MarioWiki:Proposals under "Changes", since it covers multiple subjects. Mario JC 21:11, October 23, 2020 (EDT)
Regarding the Bill Board split, while that may be a good reason to do it, something like this should at least be discussed first. There was a proposal to merge all of the boards, so a counterproposal is required. Mario JC 07:35, October 24, 2020 (EDT)
Re: Your Thoughts
I also own a copy of the Encyclopedia, so I can cross-reference it. I'd like to hear your ideas, but I warn you that I'm not very experienced with Sunshine or NSMBU. Scrooge200 (talk) 17:13, October 25, 2020 (EDT)
- I think the Isle Delfino Police and Raccoon splits might be redundant. If Dune Buddy and Mommy Noki are official names, then I'd suggest to give them pages. The ukulele Pianta, shell flautist, and Pinna Park worker seem a bit too minor. I see that the minor NPCs policy might get redone soon (according to Talk:Lava Piranha), so I'd hold off on articles for a bit until that's resolved. Scrooge200 (talk) 16:13, October 26, 2020 (EDT)
NPCs
I recommend giving this article a read: MarioWiki:Minor_NPCs. 13:47, October 26, 2020 (EDT)
- My point was more like Bickering Piantas and Stranded Pianta are not important enough and do not have proper names to have their own articles. Unless there was a discussion I'm missing, these will likely end up being deleted because they don't meet our criteria. 14:19, October 26, 2020 (EDT)
The bickering Piantas are a pair of Piantas in Super Mario Sunshine. They are recurring characters usually found throughout Delfino Plaza, their positions dependent on the player’s current point in the game. Wherever they may be found, they are always seen flailing their arms at each other as though in a dispute. When spoken to, it is revealed their conversation is usually trivial, over minor discrepancies such as appearance.
Toward the end of the game, these Piantas can be found between the fruit bazaars and beach on the east side of the plaza, arguing over whose sprout is better. One argues that his is taller, while the other argues his is more stylish. Their behavior seems to settle after the flood, after which they become more focused on ending their vacation and returning to their regular lifestyles.
The stranded Pianta is a minor character in Super Mario Sunshine He is a male Pianta who can be found stranded on the island east of Delfino Plaza, where the Warp Pipe leading to the Lily Pad Ride minigame can also be found. If spoken to, he claims he has been stranded for three years and is unable to return to shore due to not being able to swim. After the boats have started circling the plaza once more, it seems he is finally able to get off the island, and can be found behind the lighthouse on the shore. If spoken to here, however, he seems to miss being on the island and considers trying to return to it.
Another Pianta, a female, orange Pianta with a red hat and brown dress, can be found on another island west of the plaza. She is stranded with nothing more than a coconut tree and a basket. Mario may travel to the island and speak with her to receive a request of three coconuts. Mario may spray them down from the tree and simply place them into the basket afterward. Speaking to her after completing this request awards Mario a Blue Coin. If spoken to yet again, she tells Mario she may have another request for him much later on - Mario may return here after completing a level to complete the same mission again, this time receiving a 1-Up Mushroom as a reward.
Here's the texts you used if you want to reuse it. Can probably be condensed and I wouldn't give them names, but giving you the work you had to start with. :) 21:50, October 27, 2020 (EDT)
PMTOK quotes
Since you're working on quotes for Paper Mario: The Origami King, would you like me to give you the game's text files? It's faster than transcribing them by hand and ensures you don't miss anything. You'll just have to get Kuriimu on GitHub to be able to read them easily. Scrooge200 (talk) 12:38, November 11, 2020 (EST)
- I've been able to rip the text for the 3DS Mario & Luigi games, but I haven't found a program that can open them. The Mario platformers usually don't have much dialogue, and I haven't looked in-depth for games like Sunshine. I've compiled the Origami King text files here, make sure to tell me once you've downloaded them so I can delete them. Scrooge200 (talk) 17:03, November 11, 2020 (EST)
Do you know?
Some of the levels' pages have coin counts. Wynn Liaw 22:44, December 9, 2020 (EST)
Through the Looking Glass
Since you created this article, where did you get that name? It's certainly not in the game itself. 17:43, January 23, 2021 (EST)

Bowser's Fury glitches
Might want to check this link next. (T|C) 00:27, February 26, 2021 (EST)
Category moves
If the categories are too big, you can trying asking Porplemontage (talk) to run a bot to change the category links from "(game) Places" to "(game) Locations" after they're moved. Mario JC 06:35, April 15, 2021 (EDT)
RE:20th Speedrun
Yeah, sure. Though it may be a little difficult to cover the layout due to the branching paths, so it may take me some time. (T|C) 10:32, April 15, 2021 (EDT)
Point of no return
As the creator of this article, I would like you to participate in this discussion, which may result in the article being merged to the glossary. Based on your comments here, you don't seem to fully understand what a point of no return actually is and therefore jumped the gun on creating the article. Points of no return are hardly common in Mario games, only really showing up in Superstar Saga (because of the escape sequence) and Luigi's Mansion 3 (the climb to the rooftop to fight King Boo), with Partners in Time playing with the concept but not being a true PONR. Bowser's Inside Story and the original Luigi's Mansion do not have PONRs as you claim they do. 17:33, April 25, 2021 (EDT)
Re: Host Snifit quotes
You mean quotes pages in need of expansion? I know List of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team quotes is missing a lot (such as Bedsmith only having three quotes). I used to be working on List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga quotes, playing through the game and manually transcribing the text, and I got about halfway through (I'm pretty sure I stopped after the S.S. Chuckola). I don't think I'll finish that one, since I'm working on other projects right now. Scrooge200 (talk) 15:05, April 28, 2021 (EDT)
- I've noticed that Mario Party Advance doesn't have a list of quotes, although it has a lot of dialogue. I haven't played much of the game, though, so I don't know a lot about it. Scrooge200 (talk) 15:37, April 28, 2021 (EDT)
Re: Bowser's Fury Nomination
Yeah, I just only did half of it because I was tired. I can check it today and leave the rest of my comments. Scrooge200 (talk) 19:15, June 14, 2021 (EDT)
