Recent edits

Hey. We don't update the latest appearance until the game in question is released. So I ask you to stop doing so. Yoshi876 (talk)

Reminder

Please stop updating latest appearance incorrectly, even after being told on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

As I said above, we do not update the latest appearance until the game is released. If you continue to do so you will face warnings as well as a temporary ban. Yoshi876 (talk)

Uploads

I see you're having trouble getting the information correct on you pics, so here's some templates to help:

Hello, Seandwalsh. 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. A description of the image subject (parameter 1) should always be included, even if it's just a few words. 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.

Hello, Seandwalsh. 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, images related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or one it its subcategories. Media files would use:
[[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.

I don't know what you mean by "edit it back", but I corrected the information for you. Be sure to go over the templates during your next uploads so the correct information is filled in.
Also, I'll take this time to tell you that italics are meant for titles of games/publications/etc. only and not for character or location names. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 12:52, 5 October 2017 (EDT)

RE:Odyssey Question

Being an ultimate, big-time fan of Toadette for over three years now, I think that it's VERY fitting of Toadette's personality. Also, this isn't the first time Toadette was seen as an "archivist"; she showed similar traits in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam.
