Interesting rename scenario
Hi, so even though the I Spy microgame was renamed to "Busted!", now it shares its name with a microgame from Twisted!. For the game identifier I inevitably have to use, should I use the identifier for Mega Microgame$! or for Gold? 00:57, 6 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Another scenario: Classic Clash III should be renamed to Classic Clash since that's it's most recent name, but since Classic Clash I and Classic Clash II are also similar microgames originating from the same game as III, how should the disambiguation ( template or otherwise) be set up to avert confusion between the articles? 19:53, 8 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Probably the hardest scenario yet: Super Mario Bros. 3-Lift was renamed to "Super Mario Bros. 3", but another microgame originates in the same game and in the same category. Plus, using the commands as possible identifiers won't work either since the latter microgame has drastically varying commands. What should we do? 18:18, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

User rename
Can you rename me? It is already on Changing username. 10:25, 12 August 2018 (EDT)

Changes
Hi, would you mind making changes to MarioWiki:Categories § Size and scope as per this proposal? Thanks! 00:01, 14 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Also this. RickTommy (talk) 00:32, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

MS-DOS games
Changing the capitalization removes the link from the Category:MS-DOS games page and moves it to Category:MS-DOS Games. Should I replace the "games" page with the "Games" page? rollerC (talk) 03:42, 14 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Sorry about that! Thanks for the help, and I'll keep the colon thing in mind for the future. rollerC (talk) 03:57, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

Please protect this template
Thanks! 07:20, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Priority
Hi, since you undid my recent move, maybe you should take a look at this scenario too, as it's similar. Just saying. 10:59, 15 August 2018 (EDT)
 * The point I was trying to make here (and maybe I should have clarified this) was: should Goose from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door take priority over the goose from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, since the latter has a conjectural name? 13:17, 16 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Okay, I think your explanation clears it up for me. Thanks! 08:26, 17 August 2018 (EDT)

RE: Proposal
I made the move as you requested, thanks!

As for the Dinosaur proposal, yeah, somehow I completely missed Doc's point. Yeah, I'll add the stuff regarding the Super Mario World cartoon into the proposal. 13:08, 16 August 2018 (EDT)
 * I added on to the proposal, if you'd like to look at it again. 13:50, 16 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Sure, but it would help if that dino's official name was found, in an official strategy guide for Mario Kart: Double Dash!! / Mario Kart 7 or elsewhere. 08:26, 17 August 2018 (EDT)

Remake
Hence why I said "main." I don't consider All Night Nippon, All-Stars, or Advance 1, 2, or 4 to be part of the "main" series either. As for the Land games, I have a discussion going on here, but little seems to have come from it. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:26, 19 August 2018 (EDT)

Similar?
Would it be safe to consider Mario Paint - Flyswatter from WarioWare Gold the same as Mario Paint: Fly Swatter from WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!? Even though both microgames are based on Gnat Attack from Mario Paint and Super Mario Maker, not only do they require a slightly different control scheme, they also play slightly different from each other: "Fly Swatter" is more of a "time it right" microgame, while "Flyswatter" is more of a "quickly tap the objects" microgame. I'm just asking to be safe. 17:39, 20 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Additionally, is it okay to say that Stylus Hunt from WarioWare Gold is the same as Pushing Buttons from WarioWare: Touched!? It's now limited to just finding a stylus on various 3DS models, but I don't think that's a good enough argument for considering them different. 17:47, 20 August 2018 (EDT)

Other page move
Hi, would you mind moving Tomodachi Life (microgame) to Tomodachi Life without leaving a redirect? It clearly takes priority over the stage, and I feel it would just speed things up if there was an admin involved in this move. Thanks! 17:15, 22 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Never mind, Alex95 beat you to it. On a side note, should the Booster character necessarily take priority over the Booster item? 17:49, 22 August 2018 (EDT)

Musics
You say that don't hear the music from Alpine Incline in ground and Skowl. Well, here those musics:


 * Alpine Incline (Ground 1)
 * Alpine Incline (Ground 2)
 * '''Skowl

PS: You listen to see that I'm not making up.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 01:03, 23 August 2018 (EDT)

Section
Hi, just wondering why you removed the section in the WarioWare Gold article in this edit. I'm just wondering because a similar section exists in the Mario Party: The Top 100 article. 02:54, 24 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Well, to be fair, I am working on it as a draft right now. 03:03, 24 August 2018 (EDT)

Useful?
Hi, sorry to bother you again, but is this disambiguation page even useful? All it does is list second installments in every single game series that Donkey Kong stars in, and the only thing officially named "Donkey Kong 2" is the level in Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge. That said, is it okay if that disambiguation page is deleted under the grounds of being useless (and a clean slate for a new article)? 00:16, 25 August 2018 (EDT)

email for the account recovery we discussed.
Please delete this part of your talk page after you read it. I don't need everyone seeing one of my email addresses, even if it's one I only have until I disenroll from college. Once my password is reset I'll probably change it to a different email (if only to avoid a repeat of this email reset dance), but that's contingent on a successful reset happening. Thanks for the help!

(For an extra layer of security, I hid the email in a wikitext comment)

Priority
Hi, I'm wondering if the Grinder and Skewer from the Super Mario series should take priority, since they appear in far, far, far more games than the respective entities being disambiguated by it. That's not to mention that, a year ago, Porplemontage insisted on the Gold Ring from New Super Mario Bros. 2 to take priority over the Gold Ring from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, even though both only appeared in one game.

On another note, should the Avalanche! minigame from Mario Party 4 necessarily take priority over the Avalanche! minigame from Dance Dane Revolution: Mario Mix? 17:24, 31 August 2018 (EDT)

My signature
And now, does it fit for the box? -- 08:06, 1 September 2018 (EDT)

Balloon (Mini Battle)
That "Balloon" isn't a minigame; rather, it's an object seen in two different minigames, so Balloon (WarioWare: Smooth Moves) should, in my opinion, be moved back. 21:50, 2 September 2018 (EDT)

Done renaming DKC2 images
Ok mariojc, i'm done renaming the DKC2 images from the gallery. You can check here to see which original filenames to remove, and there are some additional things to be deleted, including a revision. There's also a few rename requests, when i found out that the levels were Bonus Areas, and obviously cannot move it back. Anyway, really big effort, and i apologize for all of these double edits in the process. Results May Vary (talk) 02:10, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Also, doing DKL2 photos at the moment. i'm aware that alex deleted some photos early, and that i'll repair the gallery. luckily it's nighttime in the usa, so it's probably not going to be noticed by many. how does this sound ? Results May Vary (talk) 00:03, 5 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Yeah, I do work fast. I've tried to check file usage--it's harder to check the links to a deleted filename. Alex had to leave early I believe so he deleted some before I was done. Results May Vary (talk) 09:32, 5 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Additionally, it is difficult to keep track of like hundreds of different images, so that's probably the cause of some of the mistakes. Thanks for fixing those links too. Results May Vary (talk) 09:43, 5 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Ok, so this time i've been moving filenames, and have been using Special:log/move to keep track of the files that i've been renaming. there's some deletion-tagged photos because i replaced some jpg to png photos with the original jpg's. thanks Results May Vary (talk) 09:43, 6 September 2018 (EDT)

Flipper
Hi, so for the flippers in the Waluigi Pinball race course, should I write about them in the existing Flipper article, or should I split them into their own article? I'm just wondering because they both resemble generic pinball flippers. 18:25, 8 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Got it, thanks! 08:35, 9 September 2018 (EDT)

Signature
Hey Mario jc! Is my signature usable as a raw code right now? Fan (in red), is for my userpage, Of (in blue) is for my talk page, and Yoshi (in green is for my contributions). -- 10:20, 11 September 2018 (EDT)
 * I mean, can i use it, or i should change it? -- 10:38, 11 September 2018 (EDT)

User:Retriever
Should i warn him? Or is it a vandal that is evading a ban? -- 01:35, 12 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Don't worry! I see recent changes, you blocked him, and specified the reason. Was he evading a ban after vandalism? -- 01:43, 12 September 2018 (EDT)
 * I've uploaded today a new picture. It looks like from Yukio Sawada, and a part of Super Mario-Kun, but the cover i found in the site didn't look like one from Super Mario-Kun. Is it an out-of-series manga? -- 02:28, 12 September 2018 (EDT) Yoshi's New Island special manga.jpg

I heard they will merge the DK wiki with this Wiki
And everyone who has an account on DK Wiki will move to MarioWiki.

Users such as Pdjr9000 have an account on DK Wiki but were banned here a long time ago. How does moving work for them may I ask?

MTA official renders
Hi, between and, which should stay and which should go? A similar situation exists with Birdo images for this game. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 02:36, 15 September 2018 (EDT)
 * I take it you mean the .jpg ones go? I asked both XD Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 15:03, 15 September 2018 (EDT)
 * OK then. Thanks for protecting Peachette, I was worried I might come off as being too rude in the edit summary, but I was just tired of seeing it happen. I probably should have requested it from the get-go, since it's practically a neon sign for vandals. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:53, 15 September 2018 (EDT)

Do you know how to handle this?
I posted this: https://www.mariowiki.com/Talk:Super_Mario_Bros.#Needing_help_adding_controls_to_it Do you know anyone that can help me in it? -- (talk) 07:50, 16 September 2018 (EDT)
 * So, I'll try to add based on the others version. Do you think it'd be fair to use a on that talk page? Do you consider it is a case that needs it? --DyeffersonAzSignature.png (talk) 08:47, 16 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Another thing, I'm thinking seriously that the button used to jump is the "B" button, just because of the position of it. What do you think?

Redirects
There's some redirects that are ready to be deleted. I've been trying to be more careful at checking them. Results May Vary (talk) 00:02, 17 September 2018 (EDT)

Re:Italics
I was planning for adding the Italics but completely forgot to put them. Thanks! -- 07:48, 20 September 2018 (EDT)

Hi
Hi, don't mean to totally overwhelm everyone with all the stuff i'm finding and tagging. i'm just digging through old contribution lists to locate these, and it's even helped me to replace/reupload images. what's your opinion? Results May Vary (talk) 02:09, 24 September 2018 (EDT)

Character descriptions from manuals and guides
Does the wiki have a policy regarding adding excerpts of character or enemy descriptions from game manuals/booklets or strategy guides into the articles? If not deemed "unnecessary", what would be the best way of adding them (a reference, quote, a "descriptions" section)? --

Relay Heiho
Hey, i see you understand Japanese. According to LinkTheLefty, the original Advance manual identifies this as a normal Boo Guy. Maybe you can [[Media:Advance_3_Shogakukan_P23.png|translate the description gave on the Boo Guy?]] I would after that, put it in the article for the sourced.

Tinga and Inga
Hi, this is just something I noticed while looking through your proposal history. Despite the fact that you say there was a TPP you started (presumably regarding splitting the two), the talk page is deleted, so there is no justification for that proposal. Would you mind restoring that talk page if there is indeed a TPP in the page's history? Thanks! 22:06, 25 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Sadly, I can't find anything on the Wayback Machine either. *sigh* Ah well. 23:25, 25 September 2018 (EDT)

File restoration
Could you restore this file? Someone deleted it years ago, I'm guessing because it was replaced. However, it's used on a BJAODN article, so it should have been preserved for that reason. 20:53, 26 September 2018 (EDT)

Some new accounts
Hey, just a few minutes ago, i saw in recent changes, the account "Dedenne" got created, but is unused. And "Pokemanguy" is online instead. Could you please check their I.P.? If they are the same, you tell me in my talk page, if they are different, you tell me on my talk page too. -- 08:45, 29 September 2018 (EDT)
 * What happens to older, and unused accounts when someone creates one, but doesn't use it, and a few years later, they create a new to contribute with it? -- 08:52, 29 September 2018 (EDT)

Swapnote SVG
What do you suggest I do to make the letters closer to the original? I can't find a larger image of the North American Swapnote Logo and I can't seem to find the original font if there is one. I would like to help in this regard but as the image is only used in a small section of the 3DS page and its gallery, it may not be necessary. Thanks in advance. -- Marble Q (talk) 17:38, 6 October 2018 (EDT)

Should it be extended? Or finished? It was extended for another week (as you did so) and the whole week passed, only one person voted. Should i undo my extension, or should be leaved extended to 19 October? -- 07:35, 13 October 2018 (EDT)

Re:Toad#Luigi's Mansion
Presumably? "Toad" stopped being a truly specific character outside of competition-based spinoffs rather quickly. The instruction manual explicitly says the player can save with a Toad, so there's definitely more than one. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:17, 20 October 2018 (EDT)

P.S.: I might create an article on another object from the same game soon, just thought I'd let you know of that too. 20:52, 1 November 2018 (EDT)

Hi, should the spirits from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate necessarily take precedence over the Spirit stat from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions (and maybe Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey)? 12:14, 7 November 2018 (EST)
