== green power star edits ==
Hey Reversinator -- I appreciate your desire to keep the wiki tight.  I'm wondering, though, what exactly you consider worse, in the edits I made re green power stars.
I can see an argument that the 4th-level header with the exact location of each green star belongs on the game's main page, though to me that seems rather detailed info and there is already a link to the page about green power star details.  (And, the exact same info is given on the pages in different ways -- at the very least, we should choose the clearer way and use it in both places, if it really needs to be replicated.)  A single fourth-level header in a large article strikes the editor in me as indicating too much detail.
I'm a bit more stumped on the reversion of the prose edits:
Converting passive to active voice, getting rid of awkward constructs like 'a high quantity of',
merging the exact same info presented twice in different ways
([[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title="Super_Mario_Galaxy&diff=735471&oldid=735470"|edit history]])
and (on green star page)
keeping the non-gameplay detail about how green stars are created out of the paragraph all
about how green stars affect gameplay; that unrelated sentence sticks out like a sore thumb in the paragraph, no??
Let me know.  Bon apres-midi, [[User:Not-just-yeti|not-just-yeti]] 16:09, 28 March 2010 (EDT)

Archive?

Hi there, while patrolling I noticed you made a certain edit here: http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Talk:Brown_Yoshi&curid=42853&diff=732169&oldid=732168 ...

This is, of course, six days late, but I must know -- why, exactly, did you remove Fawfulfury65 (talk)'s vote? And why did you list it as "NO QUORUM"? Just curious. BLOC PARTIER. 20:37, 26 March 2010 (EDT)

We do technically extend proposals, but, yes, you're right, It was after the vote. And, yes, the clear majority of three was not defined. I looked back at my proposal, and that's what was passed; for some reason, it's not on the Proposal page. I'll add that there, and thanks for the clearing up. ;) BLOC PARTIER. 00:50, 27 March 2010 (EDT)

Discuss

Feel free to discuss it on the talk page now. ForeverDaisy09 10:19, 28 March 2010 (EDT)

Be patient? I think it's been long enough for at least YOU to respond on the talk page. You are the only one who cares so far so YOU should have something to "discuss". Quit waiting for others opinions. ForeverDaisy09 11:54, 28 March 2010 (EDT)

green power star edits

Hey Reversinator -- I appreciate your desire to keep the wiki tight. I'm wondering, though, what exactly you consider worse, in the edits I made re green power stars.

I can see an argument that the 4th-level header with the exact location of each green star belongs on the game's main page, though to me that seems rather detailed info and there is already a link to the page about green power star details. (And, the exact same info is given on the pages in different ways -- at the very least, we should choose the clearer way and use it in both places, if it really needs to be replicated.) A single fourth-level header in a large article strikes the editor in me as indicating too much detail.

I'm a bit more stumped on the reversion of the prose edits: Converting passive to active voice, getting rid of awkward constructs like 'a high quantity of', merging the exact same info presented twice in different ways (["Super_Mario_Galaxy&diff=735471&oldid=735470"|edit history]) and (on green star page) keeping the non-gameplay detail about how green stars are created out of the paragraph all about how green stars affect gameplay; that unrelated sentence sticks out like a sore thumb in the paragraph, no??

Let me know. Bon apres-midi, not-just-yeti 16:09, 28 March 2010 (EDT)
