Background Color of Walkazo's Message
Ok, first of all, I apologize if this talk page goes over 50 sections. Secondly, I'd like to know how the yellow background for Walkazo's Message is "way too bright". The words are still readable, so I'm not too sure how the brightness is a problem. Some clarification is appreciated. Mari0fan100 (talk) 20:35, 21 February 2019 (EST)

Why deleted the image from ? I registered about that image.

Mama Luigi quote
Hello, regarding the quote "On the ceiling! You see that block up there? You bash it Luigi! You're taller!" there is not a comma in the sentence. 07:43, 24 February 2019 (EST)
 * What I meant with there being no comma is that there is no pause, grammatically incorrect or not, so it would require the template instead due to saying that he uses a comma and thus pauses in his sentence would be incorrect.  07:53, 24 February 2019 (EST)
 * My mistake then, so my apologies. 19:05, 24 February 2019 (EST)

CitationNeeded
Hi, was it really a good idea to block temporarily? I'm just asking because it seems that misusing article talk pages and flaming is all this user has ever done in their ten-and-a-half-month history on the wiki. 00:00, 28 February 2019 (EST)

Edit Sniping?
Oh, sorry. Looks like you almost beat me to it. :|Mari0fan100 (talk) 00:22, 28 February 2019 (EST)
 * Ok, thanks for letting me know. I'll try to not do it again. Mari0fan100 (talk) 00:43, 28 February 2019 (EST)

To be fair, there was a difference of four minutes. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:58, 28 February 2019 (EST)


 * It was two, not four. You're comparing the wrong difference. 01:27, 28 February 2019 (EST)
 * Sorry, have a big speech early tomorrow so my mind is a bit elsewhere. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:56, 28 February 2019 (EST)

Revisiting thorny flower
Some things have come up on the thorny flower talk page that give credence to the naming proposal, but in summary... Concerning validity of the original proposal, we've had proposals go around naming policy in the past (and sometimes without), so I'm asking for permission to reopen the proposal with the current options. LinkTheLefty (talk) 05:15, 1 March 2019 (EST)
 * 1) There are three other known names from English guides, so "thistle" is not a one-off thing, and like thorny flower, all are generic lowercase descriptors (which tend to only be used as article titles if they are consistent, but here, it changes all the time on the writer's whim).
 * 2) There are two different Japanese names that refer to the same thing in the Super Mario Galaxy games and Super Mario 3D Land, and while they seem less generic, even they have an inconsistency there.
 * 3) There is one internal name in plain English which is the closest it has to a proper name, and it is at least identical between the Super Mario Galaxy games and Super Mario 3D Land.
 * It does? I didn't see it before, so I was planning on Big Thorny Flower being affected by the decision, but it being called by the name "giant prickly plant" could complicate that idea...or the Big Thorny Flower article could potentially merge, considering Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros. doesn't give a separate entry to them or the air variant (which we also don't have). Anyway, I don't see a separate mention in the Super Mario Galaxy 2 guide. I'll get the proposal up later with multiple choice, thanks. LinkTheLefty (talk) 07:55, 1 March 2019 (EST)
 * I'd be alright with Big Thorny Flower being merged as well. 09:13, 1 March 2019 (EST)

Nut
Hi, I just now checked my New Super Mario Bros. U Prima guide, and Bolt Lifts actually are renamed Nuts in said guide despite both names being used in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia. Considering there's already a Nut page, which one takes priority? 18:47, 2 March 2019 (EST)

???
So, I just saw you block today, and that user registered their account in mid-September 2017. How did you finally find out that account was a sockpuppet today? Mari0fan100 (talk) 00:02, 3 March 2019 (EST)

Fruit
Speaking of Berries, a lot of more recent sources call these things "Fruits", even Super Mario Odyssey in-game (see Mushroom Kingdom Power Moon #13 and the Mushroom Kingdom brochure). However, there is already a Fruit page, so with that said...which one takes proirity, or should the existing Fruit page be deleted as being too generic, or should something else happen? 21:50, 3 March 2019 (EST)

List of errors in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia that are not from the Super Mario Wiki approval
Hello, may I use the scans of the errors in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia for the List of errors in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia that are not from the Super Mario Wiki as seen on my sandbox? These would be the only places were the image would be used. Also, may the List of errors in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia that are not from the Super Mario Wiki be a page to document the book's mistakes without it cluttering the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia page? It would preferably be List of errors in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia that includes LinkTheLefty's list, if he allows me to include his list. 11:48, 4 March 2019 (EST)
 * For reference, I've mentioned it on the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia talk page here. I was originally fishing for feedback on whether a version of it should be a section of the article. Though my intent was for my list to be a separate one since it has a very specific purpose to it (being relevant to the wiki controversy). LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:59, 4 March 2019 (EST)
 * The admins have agreed to permit the inclusion of the lists as sections to the SMBE page, but they may be given separate pages if they end up being too long. While LinkTheLefty's list seems fine, I'm not sure a few of those in Doomhiker's would count as "errors":
 * I think the use of "GameCube" is excusable considering it's the term most often used to refer to the system (as opposed to simply "64"), and not really what I'd consider an error. Does the book use "Wii" or "Nintendo Wii"?
 * Red Coins have been lowercase in a few games, including SM64DS.
 * It's also been pointed out that names not taken from fandom like Bull's Eye Banzai and Mid-Point Bell are likely just updated translations of the Japanese names (which you acknowledged for a number of them), and shouldn't be counted as errors.
 * The scans are fine. 22:12, 5 March 2019 (EST)

Permission
I found the original 3d model of Super Mario Odyssey map. I can use the texture from this map on the Wiki?

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 19:41, 4 March 2019 (EST)

Compatible images
It seems which no image from 4096 × 1024 compatible with this wiki. I tried to get the texture from World Map which took a long time until it did not work out.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 14:05, 5 March 2019 (EST)

Question
Are either of the following signatures:  or   too long? If so, How can I shorten them? - M C  Fan  17:12, 5 March 2019 (EST)

Super Bakarhythm Land
Hi. I saw you edited the Super Bakarhythm Land page and wondered if you have this course downloaded to your Wii U? I'm trying to archive all the official Super Mario Maker downloadable courses and this one was removed. --Hiccup (talk) 11:41, 7 March 2019 (EST)

RE: SuperMarioKid
Oops, sorry. I'll try not to do that again. Will probably review the courtesy policy to avoid such things happening in the future. Mari0fan100 (talk) 23:19, 7 March 2019 (EST)

Jungle Japes
I also thought that was a beehive because from hexagons, but in Player's Guide was evidenced which is a shell.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 12:54, 11 March 2019 (EST)

Sorry
Oops, sorry about putting "Dinosaur" as a derived species. I'm still kinda new here, so I didn't know about this. I'll be more wary in the future. Again, sorry. Kan Kan Mikan~ (talk) 07:36, March 13, 2019 (EDT)

"Naming" redirect
I actually made this redirect in case a random person (including me) just types "Naming" instead of "MarioWiki Naming". That says, it's not a big thing. -- 07:42, March 16, 2019 (EDT)

Mario Kun - Link to Mario Golf
Hi, thank you for changing the link to lead directly to the Mario Golf page. Reading the manga again, I just noticed that the chapter in fact references a Game Boy game, so it seems like the story was used to promote the release of Mario Golf for the Game Boy Color in 1999. I changed the link accordingly.

Crown
Hi, would you mind fixing the  link on The 'Shroom:Issue 124/Pipe Plaza to  ? Thanks! 22:11, March 21, 2019 (EDT)

Shiny Crown fragments
Hi, does the eShop or anywhere else official mention anything about the "Crown Capture"/"Boo Spotting" levels in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker? I'm just wondering because I haven't found any official name for the "fragments" found in the "Crown Capture" levels; not in-game, not on the game's official website, nothing. And even though they also appear in the Nintendo Minute segment dedicated to the game's DLC, neither Kit nor Krysta refer to these items by name. 08:52, March 22, 2019 (EDT)
 * Okay, thanks very much. 09:03, March 22, 2019 (EDT)

Recipes
Hello, I never played PMTTYOD so may you please verify that this edit is factual? Thanks! 19:47, March 22, 2019 (EDT)

Naming question
One question about naming: since the transformed Peach's Castle in Partners in Time is inconsistently named "Shroob Castle" in at least one in-game quote and "Peach's Castle (Past)" in both an in-game map screen and a guide, which would take priority? 02:09, March 24, 2019 (EDT)

Mockup sprites
So I saw some things, notably the 10-gold coin, not be allowed due to being mockups. I question this due to the fact that the pixel location is known and the palette is more than likely going to be the same as the one in the first SMM, meaning that all aspects are known. This also applies to the SMW early sprites that aren't in the final cartridge (such as small-snouted Yoshi), as their palette would be the same as the SMW palette in the final, meaning their all parameters are known for certain. I know that there are cases like the early attempts at getting the SMM costume sprites, but this is a lot more clear-cut than that. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:51, March 26, 2019 (EDT)
 * That still doesn't answer the one about the SMW thing, as that final game was released ages ago and the palette isn't just "more than likely" known, it's "definitively" known. They are no less valid than unused sprites ripped from an emulator. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:22, March 26, 2019 (EDT)
 * Except it was from the game. An early version of the game, it was just overwritten. Therefore, it is just as valid as the scan they provided, as well as any pre-release screenshot, as the content of them is equally-overwritten. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:08, March 27, 2019 (EDT)
 * I fail to see how it would be misleading in any manner as long as it were specified in any context it was transcluded. Prohibiting the SMW sprites as a whole when every specification of them is known for an objective fact seems silly. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:59, March 27, 2019 (EDT)

SRMIOS
Sorry, I'm just curious, what was that a picture of? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:19, March 27, 2019 (EDT)

Heart
Hi, I was wondering if you have the Japanese name for the Heart item specifically from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, since they act distinctively different from the hearts in other games, and I just want to know if the Japanese name is different from the one for Doki Doki Panic / Super Mario Bros. 2. 10:30, March 28, 2019 (EDT)

ogg
You can help me from Cranky's Theme? I put thoses music, but in ogg.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 20:59, 28 March 2019 (EST)

Thanks for the advice! 10:18, March 30, 2019

Kong Family's theme
I was talking to David Wise himself on twitter about it and gave a like.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 12:32, 30 March 2019 (EST)

Mario/Luigi
I think those might be old revisions, given the occasional nonexistent file (and general structure), possibly with a few additions. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:38, March 31, 2019 (EDT)

Hemispheres and equinoxes
Then should we not create a separate flag for say, Brazil? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:49, March 31, 2019 (EDT)

Mario & Luigi
So thanks for helping me put in controles in mario & Luigi partners in time that is a favorite could you help me do the others? &#91;-&#93;€40 分@4¡0 (talk) 21:25, April 2, 2019 (EDT)

Toad Balloon
You can move it back. I was wrong. -- Unshy Guy 21:13, April 3, 2019 (EDT)

Re:Bingo cards
I am glad you asked! I myself have a My Nintendo account and since I had 650 points with me, I was able to buy the sheet worth 100 points. The bingo cards are all a PDF, so since I have a Macbook, I used "Shift-Command-3" to take a picture of the artwork.

17:58, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

Plagiarism
Plagiarism is trying to pass others' writing off as your own. The brochure wasn't even mentioned in the sentence the user restored. I think that counts as plagiarism. 21:44, April 4, 2019 (EDT)
 * I mean, they mentioned it the first couple times, but then, with the Sparkle Water, no mention of the brochure. 21:45, April 4, 2019 (EDT)

Bowser's theme
In these two songs that you removed are from same note, Bowser's theme was composed in Super Mario Bros. 3. For example, other characters that have themes with the same note, as: Mario (SMB), Cranky Kong (DK), Donkey Kong (DKC) and Princess Peach (SM64)

You removed, because I did not describe it?

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:17, April 5, 2019 (EST)

Heads-up
Hi, just wanted to give you the heads up that you might want to fix an image link in your signature page, as the file in question was moved to a lowercase extension by Alex95. 18:44, April 7, 2019 (EDT)

Animated GIF
Hi, would you mind elaborating on what you did here? Just curious. 00:33, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * Okay, because that's not how it appears on mine for some reason. 00:48, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

Super Mario bingo cards artwork
Since you recently uploaded the DK, Diddy and Bob-omb 2D artwork. Do you have a chance to extract and upload the rest, as most artwork are non-shaded versions? The wiki already have shaded versions of the art but lacked non-shaded versions, such as the solo artwork of each Koopaling, Koopa Troopa, Dry Bones, Lakitu, etc. - 06:56, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * This is great, since I can't access to the reward because my account is not NA region, and probably not change the region. - 08:23, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

Nintendo Switch News
Since you were talking about creating a NA Nintendo account for My Nintendo, I'm going to ask you a question. If you link a NA account to the Switch console, will the news sent for that region be added to the console's news feed? Same goes when adding a JP and EU accounts? Because AU region has slow news in the feed. - 08:43, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

Re: YCW Brands
No, I haven't been able to pick it up just yet, though I do plan on getting hold of it soon, likely by the end of the month. I'm aware of the brands in there (I've already added some information about the reappearing Mario Kart sponsors to their page), and it was actually something I was considering doing, seeing as a lot of them contain references and are quite frequently appearing from the trailers I've seen. Now you've brought it up too though, I'll definitely look into it. :) BBQ Turtle (talk) 18:33, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

DELETING MY PAGE :(
Well can I add it on to the Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s inside story + Bowser jr’s journey page? &#91;-&#93;€40 分@4¡0 (talk) 21:15, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

Sliding Punch
Actually no, it's not just capitalized due to being a header. Two pages back, under the exact same heading style, is "Enter pipes," where "pipe" is lowercase, meaning the capitalization in that instance was definitely intentional. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:09, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * Well when you say "all headers" when all headers visibly don't do that, it comes off as rather condescending itself IMO. If not a tad dishonest, which is worse. As for why I said it in three places, it was so there'd be no chance anyone could miss my reasoning and revert. Anyways, I apologize, today has been rather excruciating for me, especially considering the temperatures suddenly hit "unbearably sweat-your-pants-off hot" out of nowhere where I live, and my mortal enemy the wasp is starting to emerge again. And not helping is that another user yelled at me for undoing a bad edit... >_> Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:06, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * I said it "comes off as," not was. I didn't think that you intentionally spread misinformation. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 06:31, April 9, 2019 (EDT)
 * Maybe I've just been hanging around Glowsquid too much ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 13:36, April 9, 2019 (EDT)

RE: Manuel
I just realized the wiki is a giant manuel woops. Sorry :) &#91;-&#93;€40 分@4¡0 (talk) 22:40, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * It's spelled "manual", not "Manuel". Just wanted to let you know, HEROMARIO. 22:41, April 8, 2019 (EDT)
 * Thanks. The time that autocorrect on ipad does not work. On a giant dictonary! &#91;-&#93;€40 分@4¡0 (talk) 22:43, April 8, 2019 (EDT)

RE: JPG to PNG
I see a image written in Summary that converted JPG to PNG. But I don't remember where. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:17, April 9, 2019 (EDT)

Another questionable disambig. page
Hi, would you mind looking at the Anime disambiguation page? All of the entries on the page just seem...questionable, but not questionable enough for me to request outright deletion. 14:07, April 10, 2019 (EDT)

Page deletion
Could you delete the redirect Nokottasu so the old "turtle" page can be moved there? 22:00, April 10, 2019 (EDT)

Re: Latest Appearance
I'm sorry for that. I haven't seen that message until only a few days ago. I'm still relatively new to Mario Wiki, so I don't know all the rules. I can assure you I won't make the latest appearance a game that hasn't come out yet again. I apologize for that. MysticSalad29 (talk) 14:02, April 13, 2019 (EDT)

Nerdnick
While certainly a coincidence, since it's still franchise-relevant, can the similarities not be noted? It's not like it's saying he's similar to someone from some unrelated media. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:32, April 13, 2019 (EDT)
 * E. Gadd's more like Boomhauer of King of the Hill, except with Japanese, ie it's mostly unintellegible with the occasional actual word ("Luigi" or "Oyama," itself nearly pokemon speak). Most of what he says is literally "yabble yabble." There's also the whole "invented something for Koopa/Bowser's side which is taken down by what amounts to a foil of that device which he also invented" thing. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:52, April 13, 2019 (EDT)
 * With the last part I'm referring to how Koopa's Robo Suit and the Magic Brush were both invented by the respective scientist and used by the villains, and the Plumbinator and FLUDD (also invented by the respective scientist) were each used to defeat them. When I said "foil," a "Mario" inspired thing is automatically a foil to a "Bowser" inspired thing, while a water-sprayer is a foil to a graffiti-maker. Anyways, while it's true that E. Gadd's speech is understood by the characters in-universe, it's still unintelligible vocally, which admittedly is common in both video games for space reasons and in comedy as a trope, but it still seems notable enough a coincidence to have a combination of that many character traits at once happen within the same franchise multiple times. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:28, April 14, 2019 (EDT)

Bureaucrats
I think you are a GREAT Bureaucat!!! 09:22, April 15, 2019 (EDT)
 * Agreed. 15:08, April 15, 2019 (EDT)

Enemy Counts
However, note the points made by FlameChomp and I in said proposal that kind of demolish the whole idea, particularly as the proposer failed to address them. Especially what TFC said, that's just impossible to work around without putting "infinite" (which also demolishes the whole thing). Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:37, April 16, 2019 (EDT)
 * They still recur infinitely just by traveling a few steps, so it's a misnomer. A "count" would imply an upper limit. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:13, April 16, 2019 (EDT)
