===Hereby ban the usage of the word "Pie" in proposals===
It's happened again and again and again. The foul substance known as "pie," the substance that is immediately more hazardous than that of {{wp|Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins|dioxins}}, has crept its way onto this happy site. This horrible, putrid "confection" is so vile and evil, no good creature could ever come close to it without withering away immediately. Evil creatures don't typically favor well either. There is only ''one'' being so horrible, monstrous, and generally smelly enough to actually enjoy this deplorable slop, and it's a habitual sockpuppeter!

If this passes, anyone who uses the word "pie" on any further proposal will be permabanned regardless of rank. I know that proposals that deal with how admins work are disallowed because apparently democracy isn't allowed, but this is a matter of general universal stability here. If that doesn't work, they are to be generally ostracized until they decide to leave on their own accord.

April fools! I've decided to make a proposal on what to do to generic subjects! The generic subjects are getting cleaned-up! And i'm not so proud that Stripe Pointer got deleted. If this passes, we'll see what to do.<br>

Where's the option to make even more articles about generic subjects? I think what this wiki '''really''' needs is an article on every instance of rocks in the Mario franchise. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 13:00, April 1, 2019 (EDT)

===Change the source priority exception to a more case-by-case basis===
I've seen a proposal [[MarioWiki talk:Naming#Make an exception to source priority for articles with identical names]], which decidedly made an exception to priority names. However, i don't like this setup. While i prefer "Klamber" and "Scorchit", over "Scuttle Bug" and "Zeus Guy", i've seen articles named after their internal filenames, taking priority over guide names. And i also know at least one (or possibly two) example(s) doing that. I also want to say that "but has a confusing english name" is arbitrary. Given the Urchin situation that has driven me mad during a whole proposal, and potentially that Gringill split, it's time to stop making exception for internal filenames.)<br>
I'm not sure why ''more case-by-case basis'' (something I agree with, since the text of the original proposal is generic and thus can't be used right away without a discussion first, in my opinion) is used in the context of what seems more a ''stop making exception for internal filenames'', the scope of which (all or certain?) isn't even clear.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 09:56, April 1, 2019 (EDT)

===Project C.A.R.P. ('''C'''ool '''A'''cronyms are '''R'''equired for '''P'''roposals)===
It has come to my attention that proposals on this wiki are often mind-meltingly boring. Studies have shown that boringness of wiki-related issues causes 149% of dolphins to pass out and forget to come up for oxygen. Obviously, this environmental issue must be dealt with immediately. Think of the paperwork all of those dead dolphins create! I propose that Project C.A.R.P. be put into immediate use. This emergency action will require all proposals to have cool acronyms for titles. What qualifies as "cool" will be decided by the C.O.O.L. ('''C'''rew '''O'''f '''O'''ptimal '''L'''-power), led by me, the K.I.N.G. ('''K'''ommanding '''I'''nstigator of '''N'''eural '''G'''reatness) of C.O.O.L. It is a well-known fact that 50% of our workforce consists of dolphins, so we should really do whatever we can to keep the wiki interesting for them. My hope is for Project C.A.R.P. to be a spearhead for many new projects (such as a Pie Button, a Waffle Switch, an operation that places the world under the complete control of Poochy, the basics) that will greatly improve the moral of the dolphins and the lemurs (which cover another 40% of the workforce).
