MK courses
Is there any reason you keep removing "fourth and final" from certain articles but still add it anyway to other articles? Mario JC 05:00, January 16, 2023 (EST)
Tour city articles
I notice you've been adding a lot of things that say "similar to [...]" on the Tour city course articles. please don't do this, and please don't add them back when someone removes them. As Tour gets more city courses, this "similar to [...]" stuff is gonna become lists that will just disrupt the flow of articles. its why the "similar to [...] this course has [...] routes" was ditched. - YoYo (Talk) 20:20, January 28, 2023 (EST)

Bonus challenges
As I said here, bonus challenges of a given course are perfectly relevant to that course's article, and the whole transclusion syntax I set up on pages like Time Trial (Mario Kart Tour) and Ring Race exists to aid that. Please do not remove them again. Likewise, the link of tour appearances is split between Tokyo Blur's routes because it's more convenient for readers to be linked from one route's section to its list of appearances, rather than having just one link to a page wherein they would need to seek the information themselves. As for the "Trick", "Reverse", and "Reverse/Trick" terminology, keep in mind that the last two have never been used officially, and "Trick" has been quite ambiguously used by Nintendo to refer to any course variant that has additional ramps and Kanaami Roads, including R/T courses (see this and this for example); therefore, it's a safer/more appropriate approach to go with "T", "R", and "R/T" instead, and use the expanded forms only when you have to explain to readers what these initialisms mean. Thank you for your understanding. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 14:34, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- Why don't you do the same thing for the other city course articles, Koopa con Carne? User:LaxBro9/Sig 15:41, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- I'll definitely get to it, but editing these articles is a slow grind. I don't always have the time/disposition to do it, and I have additional projects to occupy myself with on this wiki. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 15:45, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- There's one problem on the Tour Tokyo Blur page however: you didn't add the Do Jump Boosts, Goomba Takedown, Break Item Boxes, Steer Clear of Obstacles, Vs. Mega, Snap a Photo, nor Combo Attack bonus challenges to their given courses. User:LaxBro9/Sig 16:36, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- Again: that takes time, because I have to mount a lot of new code to the articles you listed. (Even automatically replacing text in some other app only helps partially.) I'll do it eventually, unless someone else wants to. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 16:44, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- Also, it is a safer/more appropriate approach to go with “Reverse”, “Trick”, and “Reverse/Trick” rather than “R”, “T”, and “R/T” for the course icons! User:LaxBro9/Sig 19:09, January 31, 2023 (EST)
- I already told you this terminology is either unofficial or ambiguous, so there's nothing safe in using it. The wiki should only document official media and concepts, meaning two of these labels don't cut it: Nintendo has only ever used R and R/T for the reversed and reversed/trick variants, and prominently T for the trick variants, as you can see in in-game challenge descriptions, the Mario Kart Tour FAQ, and miscellaneous online sources. Unless you have an official source to counter what I said, please stop reverting the labels to their expanded form, else I will issue a warning. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 19:24, January 31, 2023 (EST)
