Information

Some of the info you have been adding comes from shakey sources. Wikipedia is not reliable, unless the information there is sourced and comes from an official Nintendo statement do not add it here as fact. Yoshi876 (talk)

Userspace

Beware of making a subspace like the one you marked from your userpage. It will likely deleted soon as it is not allowed. You can lose some important infos. Instead, I suggest to put them in your userpage, as there will be then no problems. Also, thanks for trying to feature Lakitu. I put lots of effort but it's very likely that won't pass. TSU NA MI

RE:Mario Kart 7 Tournaments

Cool! I would be more than happy to accept. Sorry, but I cann't. Thing is, I don't have a Internet connection for my Nintendoes. I have it only for tablet and PC, and limited. Believe it, it would be entusiasthic to take part, especially for a guy that beats Rainbow Road's Staff Ghost with my buddy Lakitu, but for the reason above I am "banned" from online play. I'm so sorry... I'll try to spread da word. TSU NA MI

RE:Mario Kart 7 Tournament

I don't partake in tournaments. Yoshi876 (talk)

Subpage and stuff

Your subpage, User:The Super Mario Super User/Mii News Archive 1, doesn't serve the wiki and so it needs to be deleted as per policy, along with all the images with it. Your QR scans also need to be deleted as images must be used on the wiki, and they can't. Yoshi876 (talk)

Personal Image Warning

Template:Personal-image-warning

All of those QR Codes you have on your user page are considered personal images, and you have far too many personal images. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Considering I'm not an admin, I'm not able to actually delete any of them myself. You can either tag them for deletion yourself and then simply wait for an admin to delete them, or notify an admin directly (a list of them is here) to delete them. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Subpages and Personal Images

You were warned weeks ago that you aren't supposed to have more than four Personal Images or user subpages that don't benefit the wiki, so I deleted all the extra PIs and all the disallowed subpages. Please adhere to our regulations in the future and take action when admins and other users warn you about policy infractions if you don't want your stuff deleted out from under you next time. - Walk azo 17:48, 2 October 2014 (EDT)

New stub article

Hello, please note, when creating a new article page, put as much information as you can. Just because a new game was released, doesn't mean they need to be created rushly. L 151

Also please avoid typing second person "(you)" view onto article pages.

Moving Files

Hi. When you move a file please make sure to tag the redirect that is created with deletion, and to update the file names. Yoshi876 (talk)

"You"

Please avoid using the word "you" when editing, and use phrases/words like "the player" or "Yoshi" instead. You should also not write in a way that it is addressed directly to the reader; For example, instead of simply "Go through the door", it should be "The player should go through the door", or "Yoshi must enter the door". L151 has already informed you about this above, so please don't ignore it. Thank you. Mario JC

I'd just like to throw this in as well, when you do level article you need to include a layout of the level, I'd suggest looking at other level articles, like Special 1-1, to get an idea of how they should be written. Yoshi876 (talk)

User name

Hey! I realize that you want to change your username to King Koopa? Unfortunately, there is already an existing user going by King Koopa. I think it's better to inform you now rather than months later. Finally, if you want your username changed, please do not change your signature until your actual username has been changed. That way, you won't be giving other users a difficult time deciphering who you are. I'm sorry for the news, but hope you don't get TOO disappointed. ^_^ I apologize if I and other users sound very naggy and all, but being a new user is tough the first time. It's me, Mario!

Re: Amiibo

I've added the only ones I have. Right now I have a Samus amiibo, a Pikachu amiibo and the SSB and SMB Yoshi amiibos. They only unlock three designs; two of which are SUPER DULL. :/ Kinkitsune (talk)

Super Mario Maker

Where is the source(s) to show the Bowser Amiibo is compatible with Super Mario Maker? Marioguy (talk) 08:03, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

Re: Released date

Short, wait the coming month :-) --Captain Yoshi 11:32, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

Sprites.

That resizing is blurry, and you can just code in the largeness, so I'm reverting them. (T · C) 10:08, 13 September 2015 (EDT)

Aboutfile Reminder

Hello, The Super Mario Super User. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below.

{{aboutfile
|1=Subject of the image
|2=Where you found the image
|3=Artist
|4=Describe edits, if any
|5=Other versions (use file link)
}}

Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Please either fill in or delete unused parameters, it's really inconvenient to fix the aboutfile template for you. Ray Trace^(T|C) 21:07, 14 September 2015 (EDT)

Costume Mario proposal.

I have changed the options and rewritten the proposal on the Costume Mario Sprites. Please Take a look. (T · C) 10:47, 16 September 2015 (EDT)
