One Way Wall
I found a model of the One-Way Wall here but it is said that is custom... Is it really custom? Or it is official model? Because its look exactly like the official one... If its official model, so why is it on custom? So if its custom, nothing to say... --86.193.239.162 04:32, 27 June 2017 (EDT)


 * I'm pretty sure that's a custom model. From what I've heard, the NSMBU style in Mario Maker uses 2D sprites that look 3D. It also wouldn't be under "custom" if it's official. 06:01, 27 June 2017 (EDT)

Spiny
Does the Spinies have a mouth? Because despite the Goomba Shoe artwork Spiny is shown with a mouth with two teeth. In a model, they do not have teeth, but at least, in their 3D model, do they have a mouth? --77.207.8.120 02:17, 3 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Doesn't look like it. 02:48, 3 July 2017 (EDT)

Mechakoopa and Lemmy Koopa
Why does the Mechakoopa have sharp teeth in Super Mario World, and have a white wind-up key instead of black? (animation sprite) Because in Bowser Battle artwork they lack the teeth and they have a wind up key... I know theres palette limitation but theres black palette in Super Mario World. And sharp teeth arent graphical limitation... Same question for Lemmy, hes supposed to lack teeth, and green, because green with orange exist because hes originally green.

Green Koopa exist in this game. So why did Nintendo choose the palette of the yellow koopa instead of the green one and why does he have teeth in the sprite? --77.207.8.120 03:24, 3 July 2017 (EDT)


 * Maybe it wouldn't look like a windup key if it was coloured black? There have always been minor inconsistencies between the artwork and sprites in older games, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Don't know about Lemmy, though. 06:46, 3 July 2017 (EDT)

Translations
Hey, I was just wondering where you got the translations from for the "Names in other languages" section of articles. LuigiMaster123 (talk) 00:07, 4 July 2017 (EDT)

Tense
Sorry to bother you, but I should point out that articles on fictional subjects should use the present tense. Saying that something will happen is future tense. "The guy will do the thing" is future, "the guy does the thing" is present. It's just something to keep in mind as you edit! 22:28, 5 July 2017 (EDT)

Lemmy Koopa
In the section physical appearance it is said that Lemmy Koopa is yellow due to graphical limitation, but it doesnt because theres a more appropriate pallete (the green Koopa). So could i edit it or not? --77.207.8.120 04:59, 7 July 2017 (EDT)


 * In that case, yes, "due to graphical limitations" should be removed. 07:51, 7 July 2017 (EDT)

Please protect this page!
Somehow that policy page was also left unprotected. 16:39, 7 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Same for this page! 16:46, 7 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Done, thanks! 21:18, 7 July 2017 (EDT)

Personal images is also unprotected (though it used to be before it was moved). -- 21:47, 7 July 2017 (EDT)
 * And this page as well! 22:12, 7 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Thanks, guys. I noticed Signatures wasn't protected either; weird how the protection didn't carry over for some pages. I also like the header idea. 03:04, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
 * You're welcome! Sorry to bother you again, but could you please semiprotect the Appeals page itself? Thanks! 11:48, 10 July 2017 (EDT)
 * I think it'd be best to leave it unprotected, since there might be users who are not yet autoconfirmed that still wish to appeal a warning. 22:43, 10 July 2017 (EDT)

Sorry to bother you  YET AGAIN , but could you please semiprotect Template:NIWA? Thanks! 19:19, 19 July 2017 (EDT)
 * It's not a page easily susceptible to vandalism, so I don't see a need to protect it. Like mainspace articles, it doesn't need to be protected if it's not a constant target by vandals. 22:09, 19 July 2017 (EDT)

Pidgit artwork
Is this artwork official, or fan recolored? This is really confusing because it is found on thevideogamearchive.com --77.207.8.120 08:13, 9 July 2017 (EDT)


 * Please use your best judgement; the website's description states that it specialises in uploading scans of official game publication artwork, so it must be official. Also, I'm sure the right person to ask would be whoever uploaded the image. 08:35, 9 July 2017 (EDT)

The wording to use for international versions' box cover of Mario Power Tennis
Sorry to bother you about this minor thing, but I used the word "montage" to refer to the international versions' box cover having a bunch of Mario characters but that doesn't seem right. Is montage an okay word to be used in this situation? Mr. Kite (talk) 06:42, 10 July 2017 (EDT)

Regional Differences for Mario Games
There`s actually a lot of differences between the japanese and international versions of certain Mario games (ex. Thousand Year Door, Superstar Saga, and Sunshine) that we actually haven`t covered on this website yet, although the trivia list will probably get too long if I try to add all of them. Is it actually possible to make a sub-page for a regional difference list? Mr. Kite (talk) 22:44, 11 July 2017 (EDT)

Now I'm obviously not an admin myself, but remember, don't make absurd requests. -- 2:44, 14 July 2017 (CT).

A question about rules
Hello there! I have a question about two rules, or rather what happens when two rules both apply: "If a subject-specific category can be split further [...], use only the most specific category." and "Non-series/game/console/etc.-specific categories need a minimum of five entries, [...]." To use Category:Politicians as an example, a lot of its entries overlap with its subcategory, Category:Mayors. Removing the redundant entries, per the first rule I mentioned, would result in there only being six non-mayor politicians left. This is still technically allowed, but what would happen if, by removing the mayors from the politician category, there were four or less entries left? According to the second rule, the category wouldn't technically be valid, even if there are several articles that actually belong under it; they're just nested in a subcategory. Any discussions about the two categories being merged or otherwise removing one of them can be set aside for the time being. It's a discussion worth having, but I am currently interested in the question that I asked you. Simply put, is a non-series/game/etc. category valid if it has less than five entries, but has a subcategory with more than five entries? 00:51, 19 July 2017 (EDT)
 * All right, that helps a lot. Thank you! 13:22, 19 July 2017 (EDT)

Merge Luigi 64 and Waluigi 64 DS sections in List of rumors and urban legends about Mario
Should we just merge the Luigi 64 and Waluigi 64 DS rumors into one section, since they're so similar and apply to almost the same game? 23:32, 20 July 2017 (EDT)

P.S. And for Jesus' sake, why do you keep undoing my edits? I mean, I know why, and I understand you're an administrator and want the best for the wiki and all, but I'll be honest, it frustrates me when all of the times I try to help the wiki and contribute information and knowledge keep getting reversed all the god-dang time. 23:37, 20 July 2017 (EDT)

Cartoon
As you said the Nintendo Comic System, were licensed by nintendo of America. But the cartoon were licensed by DIC Entertainment, so do that mean that the cartoon is unofficial unlike the Nintendo Comic System? --77.207.8.120 05:41, 26 July 2017 (EDT)


 * No, Nintendo licensed it, since they own the characters. DIC produced the show. 06:04, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * So you mean the character were made by nintendo of Japan, but since the cartoon was made in America, i think it was actually Nintendo of America who worked with the DIC Entertainment. Am i right? --77.207.8.120 06:24, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * No, the characters are owned by Nintendo as a whole. 06:27, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * What i was tried to say, who colored the character, IN the episodes of the cartoon. Nintendo of America or Nintendo of Japan who colored, not in the games, i say in the cartoon. --77.207.8.120 06:31, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * What do you mean by coloured? Like who did the art and animation? Again, DIC produced and created the show so it must have been them; Nintendo only licensed their characters to them, meaning they gave them permission to use them. 06:45, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Ok ive got it. --77.207.8.120 06:46, 26 July 2017 (EDT)

Image that's not related to Mario series!

Super Paper Mario edit
How is that Mario Party reference not a reference? I don't understand that. Please explain. 22:48, 26 July 2017 (EDT)
 * I know I've barged in a lot, but I'll go ahead and do it again. Given how obscure a reference that would be, it's more than likely a coincidence. Especially given he was brainwashed. 22:10, 26 July 2017 (CT)
 * There's also no evidence that it is referencing Mario Party. It's also very rare for the Paper Mario series to reference the Mario Party series, so this just seems like a stretch. 23:13, 26 July 2017 (EDT)

RE:DKCTF Image
So do all DKCTF screenshots that I have uploaded lately go against the policy? I used the Wii U Image Share service to take them, and they were originally jpg images. Should every single one be deleted and recaptured in jpg, or can they just be converted back to their original format? --
 * Okay, then... there's a grand total of about 350 pictures that were originally jpg (counted from when I started uploading in PNG format), so I'm gonna need a wee bit of help :)
 * I used Photoshop to simply save them as PNGs. After you reply to this message, I will start saving the existing images, then I will convert them back to JPEG in Photoshop, as I am not willing to download any other conversion software. Problem is, the size of the converted JPEG file is bigger than that of the raw JPEG file, and I have deleted almost all original images. I messed up so badly, sorry for being so stupid... Hold on, I discovered they were just lurking in the Recycle Bin. Not all of them, but most; I don't have the pictures from here anymore. As for level and Capsule Toy Machine-related images, they're up and about! --
 * Alright! We should get started, but how do we organize ourselves? Will you begin by deleting the PNGs one-by-one as you said and then I come and replace them with JPEGs, or vice-versa? --

Just to clarify policy (because I proposed it and it passed), the conversion did shouldn't have happened in the first place. It was so much effort with little payoff. The policy applies to both JPEGs that weren't uploaded to yet as well as already uploaded JPEGs being converted to PNG. It was meant to defend against uploads like File:Thwomp Wario's Woods.png, originally done by, but eventually redone by me. Another protection is fan transparency on JPEGs of artwork, because JPEGs are incapable of transparency. Editors should just wait to see if a lossless alternative turns up. This shouldn't be confused with recaptures, which I do and doesn't violate the policy in any way. A lot of confusion stems from what the difference is between conversion and replacing and how JPEG and PNG formats work. If that needs to be clarified, just ask me about it. Editing this wiki has gotten me ridiculously experienced with image formats. -- 16:39, 30 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Yes, yes, I know! My actions were driven by the thought that someone would apply PNG Monstrous on the images and that would make them more compact. I had forgotten the image policy, though I had read it beforehand. So my decision to convert the pictures to PNG after taking them was idiotic to put it shortly. Sorry for that. --

Italics
You claimed on an anon's talk page that italics shouldn't be used for Kodansha manga. Manual of Style contradicts this, saying print publications should be. This is done with Nintendo Power, so I don't see why Kodansha should be different. 12:08, 1 August 2017 (EDT)

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up! 01:11, 2 August 2017 (EDT)

File revisions
Hey, can you please delete the two other file revisions for File:SMB-Line-Mario-1UP.gif? I got the latest one to display correctly, but the two broken revisions are severely slowing down the file's load time. Thanks! 05:57, 4 August 2017 (EDT)

Watch
Hi, could you please move Watch to Watch (enemy) and also move Watch (Mario's Time Machine) to Watch? I'd do it myself, but I'm currently stuck with a mobile device and can't move the pages myself. Thanks! 10:54, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
 * Watch, or even Watch (item), could be easily confused for a Stop Watch or a Timer. I do not support moving it. 10:57, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
 * In that case, it might be good to create a disambiguation page for that reason, maybe Watch (disambiguation)...?
 * It's also worth noting that articles with conjectural titles usually get identifiers over similarly-named nonconjectural articles; in this case, the Wario Land enemy should have an identifier. 12:20, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
 * The enemy's name is not conjectural, it's official from another language. 14:47, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
 * Oh, well in that case, let's just move Watch (Mario's Time Machine) to Watch (item) and create a disambiguation page. 15:11, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
 * I already covered that in my other post. 16:05, 8 August 2017 (EDT)
