Edit conflicts
Hang on, please be very careful when editing the sound test notes for the TTYD remake, I was trying to edit Chapter 7 when I was hit with an edit conflict from your side that I was not notified about. If you can, try to contact me in the Super Mario Wiki Discord server to communicate potential instances of edit conflicts. (As a side note, I mainly use the Discord for communication on editing the wiki, so talkpage responses are not guaranteed, but this is not by any means discouraging you from leaving messages on my talkpage or responding to me.) --EleCyon (talk) 10:16, July 10, 2024 (EDT)
- Oh sorry, I wasn't aware you were also editing at the same time. I'll be sure to talk to you on Discord if I edit the page in the future (I don't have anything else to add there for now). --Technetium (talk) 10:19, July 10, 2024 (EDT)
Re: TTYD Remake Character Sprites
I talked about it a bit here. Basically, the game uses "skeletal pattern" and "texture pattern" animations for its characters. Skeletal ones pose the individual parts and move them to make the animations, and texture patterns determine which of the character's sprites are visible. But the thing is that I don't think the people who assembled the full characters for Spriters Resource used the skeletal patterns as reference: compare the assembly of Bub-ulb to a screenshot of its default animation in a model viewer, and you can notice the positions of things like the flower and the eyes being off. I've been able to confirm that geometricentric and DogToon64's are incorrect, but I think fawfulthegreat64's are okay considering they have a good reputation in the community and are experienced with how the PM games work internally.

- Thanks for the info. Luckily, most of the sprites I uploaded were from fawfulthegreat64, so it wasn't a complete waste of time. --Technetium (talk) 17:22, July 11, 2024 (EDT)
Re: List of tattles in TTYD NS article
Hi, I have all the tattles and Tattle Log entries listed in User:Scrooge200/Sandbox (I'd recommend bringing them over from there because it includes all the text differences, I ripped it directly from the remake). I was wondering if the tattles needed to go there because they'd also be listed on the bestiary, so that might seem a bit redundant.
For base TTYD and 64, I'm less experienced with text rips from there, so I'm not sure I could do full lists for those, but I agree that they should be made. Scrooge200 (talk) 19:48, July 23, 2024 (EDT)
TTYDNS Trouble Center hints
Hey, if you need the Trouble Center hints, I ripped them all from the game's files and put them here. Scrooge200 (talk) 18:30, August 9, 2024 (EDT)
Re: TTYDNS Merluvlee Predictions
Yeah, I was able to get them here. Scrooge200 (talk) 15:17, August 11, 2024 (EDT)
- Everything I posted there is all the text from the game, I double checked and there really is none for the Red Key. Curiously, the numerical order of the hints does skip a few numbers, so they may have removed some in development. Scrooge200 (talk) 04:54, August 13, 2024 (EDT)
- Curiously, that's the only one without a hint: the numbers skip from 34 (the one in cabin 5) to 36 (at Riverside Station). I'm guessing it was removed for some reason? Scrooge200 (talk) 17:07, August 15, 2024 (EDT)
On Citations
I know it's not always realistic, but the earliest instance is generally prioritized. So for example, the original GameCube version of The Thousand-Year Door would be better to cite for the languages it was released in, then the remake would be good to cite for newer translations. Usually the exception would be if there's a source that came later that now uses furigana, like the Super Mario RPG remake, or if the remake renames something (we can assume in most cases it doesn't), in which both names should be listed. (Also, The Mushroom Kingdom should be replaced when it's just textual.) LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:33, August 26, 2024 (EDT)
Re:Thanks!
No: thank YOU! You are pushing me to return to these pages and you are helping a lot by ordering and adding stuff in the gallery! You're the real hero of this story. Mariuigi Khed 12:43, September 6, 2024 (EDT)
Crystal Stars names
Hey so, I saw that you've helped add some of the missing names in the Other Languages section of a couple of TTYD-releated pages, and I wanted to ask if you could add the missing Chinese names for the individual Crystal Stars pages if that's possible for you? 82.57.92.151 16:50, September 8, 2024 (EDT)
- Yeah sure I can do those in a couple hours, I need to add citations anyway. Thanks for letting me know the names were missing, didn't notice that! Technetium (talk) 17:04, September 8, 2024 (EDT)
Re:New Super Mario-kun volume pages
Yeah, sure. I was working right now on the side pages icons of Volume 13 (which are... non-existent, just some recap/promo of the previous volumes). Ok, I'll prepare the page, you add the chapter covers, and then I add the rest. -- Mariuigi Khed 09:21, September 10, 2024 (EDT)
Awesome work on the wiki!
Hallo! You've been a very active and hardworking member on the Mario Wiki, both on the wiki itself and on the Discord server! This is a message of appreciation for everything you've done here. Thanks for contributing so much! Hope this brightens up your day! Sparks (talk) 14:31, September 21, 2024 (EDT)
- Aww, thank you! May be corny to say but this did make me smile. And thanks for being such a great help yourself! Technetium (talk) 16:35, September 21, 2024 (EDT)
Koopalings
Soooooo, where exactly was the proposal to move the Koopalings' names to their first names? PrincessPeachFan (talk) 07:30, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
- Here it is. Nightwicked Bowser 07:35, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
Re:Extension Corps
Zokket is cited in the main page. Understandable for the other two members, since nobody wrote it, but they all came from the official site. (Strange that by now nobody cited that yet) -- Mariuigi Khed 13:16, October 10, 2024 (EDT)
About Ten and Shun
To answer your question Technitium, when I was looking through the Brothership gallery, I found out that their names are indeed Ten and Shun. I realised this by simply peeping at the file names of their respective artwork renders. But I slightly feel the same way too since I can't seem to know for certain. Why don't you ask PiNGOUiN and see if he knows? - User:Jude da Dude
New name source proposal review?
Hello. I wrote a draft here for a new proposal relating to name sourcing. Since you are the proposer of the proposal about requiring citations for foreign names, I would appreciate it if you could let me know what you think about it. I'll be honest: I imagine you may disagree with what I have written as a whole. However, I am still interested to read your thoughts. Thanks in advance. Blinker (talk) 18:32, October 18, 2024 (EDT)
This is where I got the names!
See this video right here! → https://youtu.be/AUxVdZkoAJw?si=b2vCfNuv0Fs_Rx8f That’s where I got the confirmed names from! -User:Jude da Dude
Response to the response that you gave me in Talk:List of implied characters
Overview
Daisy's father appeared in a manga, and Wario's parents' limbs appeared in another manga (alright maybe I was wrong on that one). K. Rool's wife is shown in the 4koma Gag Battle and the 4koma Manga Kingdom (although there's only an image of her in the 1st one). Peach's mother appeared quite a lot (but her STUPID FATHER appeared WAY more). Mogera Kong appeared in something a Noki was holding. And Rosalina's mother's face appeared (except for her eyes, though).
