Shortening words[edit]
What you're doing (shortening words) is unnecessary, so please stop doing that. Not only do we not use contractions, but you're also changing certain words and phrasing to sound more informal (like "until" to "til"), which we don't want on an encyclopedia. Mario JC 06:36, August 12, 2020 (EDT)
- Another thing to keep in mind is that we don't use the word "you" when talking about the player, we say either "the player" or the playable character depending on the situation.

Reminder[edit]
Please stop making unconstructive edits 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. |
Do not deliberately change words to go against our writing guidelines. You were reminded for this already. Mario JC 20:01, February 1, 2021 (EST)
- Please take this into account when adding new information, and stop removing commas too.

Account merge[edit]
Yes, your accounts were merged together and now this is your only account. It's possible to have it renamed to the old name (or another name) as well per a request. --Steve (talk) 23:46, April 18, 2022 (EDT)
You need to visit MarioWiki:Changing username and follow the instructions to request a rename, not admins' talk pages.
Signing is not difficult; you just need to type four tildes (~~~~) and a signature is automatically generated. Mario JC 07:31, April 20, 2022 (EDT)
Game titles[edit]
Hello, WaluigiMan10000! Thanks for your contributions. When writing titles for media like games, films, TV shows, and publications, please remember to italicize them. This is done by placing two straight apostrophes (not quotation marks or curly apostrophes) on both sides of the title, or clicking on the I icon above the text box and typing out the title. For example, typing out ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' generates Super Mario Bros.
If you are using a device that uses curly ("smart") punctuation, you may need to disable this function in your device's settings to be able to type out the correct apostrophes. |

Bumping this, please italicise game titles or a reminder will follow. Nightwicked Bowser

You made the same Poochy edit three times now. This information is subjective and not based on fact; stop adding this back in. Mario JC 23:37, March 25, 2023 (EDT)
- Even if it's a popular opinion, it's still an opinion and doesn't belong on the article.
Mario JC 00:08, March 26, 2023 (EDT)
I think Poochy looks creepy, personally. He does act cute, though. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:13, March 26, 2023 (EDT)
This is another opinion-based edit. Stop adding subjective information please. Mario JC 08:41, July 15, 2023 (EDT)
"You"[edit]
Hello, WaluigiMan10000! Thanks for your contributions. When writing, avoid using first- and second-person perspective with pronouns like "you". As an encyclopedia site, we write in third-person and not from a specific person's point of view or referring directly to the reader, so the term "the player", or the character's name, should instead be used in the pronouns' place. |

Linking and Editing[edit]
Hi, just wanted to let you know that if you want to add a link to something, but want different text than the article or page name to display, then you can put the text to be displayed first, add a vertical line (as a keyboard character), and then put the title of the article or page that the link redirects to. Also, make sure to mark small edits or multiple edits at once as minor, since you made 4 small edits in the span of 1 minute. Mari0fan100 (talk) 01:53, November 25, 2023 (EST)
Hello, WaluigiMan10000. When editing, if you'd like to see how your edits affect a page, use the "Show preview" button next to the "Save changes" button. This allows you to check over your edits for any errors and make any additional changes or fixes before you save, which will prevent edits from flooding the page history and recent changes. (If you are on mobile, make sure to check the preview page thoroughly before proceeding to save.) Please try to avoid making excessive, consecutive edits to a single page within a short timespan and instead limit them to as few as possible. |

Identifier links[edit]
Is there any reason why you're removing display titles from links and leaving them with "(series)"/"(franchise)" shown when they shouldn't be? Mario JC 23:21, April 12, 2024 (EDT)
Don't leave identifiers displayed. They should be hidden through a piped link, as Dwhitney did for you: [[Red Diamond (Luigi's Mansion)|Red Diamond]]
Mario JC 00:16, April 17, 2024 (EDT)
Please stop removing display titles from piped links 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. |
There is no reason you should be doing this. Stop making identifiers visible. Mario JC 00:48, June 28, 2024 (EDT)
Second-person writing[edit]
Please stop writing in second-person 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. |
On top of this, you've accumulated a large number of reminders and warnings already. Please review your talk page on the rules and guildelines that have been pointed out to you or you may be issued a last warning; we can't keep having to issue formal notice after formal notice for things you were reminded for previously. Mario JC 08:30, July 10, 2024 (EDT)
Last warning[edit]
This is your last warning. The next time you break the rules in any way, you will be blocked from editing the Super Mario Wiki. If you feel this last warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Removing wiki formatting that's clearly there for a reason is not "cleaning". You clearly did not bother to check the effects of removing it after making the edit (in this case, removing "nowiki" tags causes whatever was inside those tags to be formatted how it usually would, when that's not what we want in this case, causing the information to display incorrectly, like this). Stop removing formatting for no reason and understand and pay attention to what you're doing before doing it. Mario JC 06:21, July 11, 2024 (EDT)
