| Hey, everyone. A midnight edit for you: a Stumpification of the [[Village Leader|Chief Yoshi]] article. I'm trying to figure out of it should be renamed Village Leader (Yoshi's Village)? Any thoughts?

| Because of the greatly increasing size of the Wiki and its userbase, my computer could not connect to the MarioWiki for more than two page views until now. Basically, I haven't been able to do anything. It seems like the server change helped the problem, but we have yet to see. In any case, in my time gone I have been forced to go cold turkey on the Wiki... so basically, I don't really want to pick up the habit again. ...but I'm sure I will. Regardless, I have one week until I go off on vacation for (removed for privacy), and in that week before the vacation, I have so much to do. Basically, the soonest you will likely hear from me is (removed for privacy) from today. I'll see you all later! I'm going to get my R&R on!

| Guess what? I just went and Stumpified the ''[[Doki Doki Panic]]'' page. Yee-haw! Okay, I'm going to go for today. It's 5:00p and I have to do a lot still... including playing lots of video games.
| |
|
| |
| I redid the [[Nintendo DS (course)]] article. If anyone has a better picture of the course, please update the page. The current one is of a menu, and I would rather have one of the course.
| |
|
| |
| [[User:Great Gonzo|Great Gonzo]] helped me with the edit count userbox issue today. It turns out that there's some Wiki related problem messing it up, not my stupidity. So, from now on, I'll update that box when I think of it using [[Special:EditCount]].

| ====25 June 2007====
| |
| Nothing big to report today, but in honor of the release of ''Pokémon Battle Revolution'', I updated the [[Nintendo Wii]] and [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] articles accordingly, as it is the first title to offer online game play for the Wii. For those wondering, July 30 is the planned release for ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]''. Yeah... the day after my birthday. Good timing, Nintendo. Oh, well. It's not like I would ask for a Wii at its current price.
| |
| ====23 June 2007====
| |
| Sorry for keeping you waiting. I have been writing my Stumpification of [[Donkey Kong]]. I've posted my work, that ends after the section about ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Ugh... and I thought ports messed up ''[[Super Mario 64]]''...
| |
|
| |
| On a side note, I embraced my inner politician and am trying to move the [[Big Eight]] article to [[MarioWiki:Big Eight]], so it would serve as a guideline and not as actual canon. The thing is, we invented the concept, so why are we calling it canon? It belongs in the MarioWiki category, where our special Wiki stuff goes. The same applies to [[Marioverse]] actually, but people don't really want to let it go yet. Yeah, I know I'm being moderate. If you want to get involved, look at the [[MarioWiki:Proposals|Proposals]] page.

Welcome to my page! I really hate to say this, but the summer's over and I have a horrible looking year ahead of me. I'm attempting to wrap up all the bits and pieces I've left behind, but after that's done, I'm going on an extended absence. I'm really sorry!
It’s nice to know that someone is interested in me… unless you’re a stalker. Maybe you’ve come to ask for a favor? You can see what I like to do on this page, and I love editing when I get in the right mood. Please post on my talk page if you're interested. For those haters who don’t believe in my skills, please check out any of my featured articles. I’ve put a lot into changing them…
Stumpers's Wiki News
Stumpers's Wiki News is a service provided for users who are interesting in what I'm up to. Yes, yes! Your welcome! I'll post any major changes I make and keep you posted on developements regarding my status on the Wiki. Old news posts can be found here.
15 August 2007
Ugh... just finished working another hour on the Mushroom Kingdom article... it's hard. I hope to finish the history section, do a section on transportation and the cities, and then get rid of those stupid lists. I mean, the character information can be found through the history section and the places will be adressed, too. My goodness... it's late. After midnight! No wonder this is the 15th... heh. Time to sleep. Pleasant dreams, everyone!
Good morning! How about a healthy dose of more Mushroom Kingdom updates?! I'm up to Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and getting incredibly bored writing about the sports titles.
14 August 2007
Check out the Tetris DS article... it's goin' good.
13 August 2007
Here's my decision. I'm going to work at the threads I've left behind for the time being. I will take up no new projects. Here are the old ones:
- Tetris DS: My to-do list can be seen in the talk page. Today I took care of the worst part of my list.
- Mushroom Kingdom: How could such an important article be so unpopular for editing? Well, I'll just have to finish what I started there: the history section. I hope to add other subsections I think of as I go.
- Donkey Kong: Again, DK is amazing, but people neglect his article. I'll try and finish his biography.
Do you remember any other projects I once took up but forgot? Projects that need help again due to new information? Let me know.
12 August 2007
No point in beating about the bush... there's something different about my edits lately. I just haven't been feeling up to the usual rewrites and such and have been posting here and there as I see the need. Why is this? Well, I've been very tired lately and with the school year starting up again I have been more and more busy. I have a feeling that as time progresses that trend will continue, and so I must warn you now that I may bow out for months at a time without warning. If I feel that a hiatus will be long-standing, I hope to use the {{userhiatus}} template so that you'll know this isn't just a passing phase. It's been a great summer with you guys! I'm not looking forward to the end!
08 August 2007
I've mostly been putting around the Wiki, fixing this and that over the last three days... and playing Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess like a fiend. It's kind of ironic how if the Wii version hadn't come out, I would have grabbed the GameCube version way before now... but now I get to have more fun now instead of earlier! ...And with all the good games coming out for Wii, I need some fun!
05 August 2007
I'm back from vacation! Whoa... who knew I could actually tan? Not me, that's for sure.

Happy Birthday to me! (this message was posted retroactively)
20 July 2007
Well, no one found out where exactly I was going... and the not-so-helpful clue was taken down from the gift section of Paper Jorge'sUser talk:Paper Jorge talk page. Too bad! Jorge was the closest, though. Turns out Stumpers Sandiego has a weakness for bribes! (see 7/19/07) Well guys, I'll be back in what will seem like two seconds for me... but what will seem like normal time for you. Oh, and if you're a big fanboy of my work or something, I worked a little more on the Donkey Kong article. Good stuff. That said, long live the Wiki! *poofs away in a cloud of smoke*
19 July 2007
Paper Jorge is responsible for both of these updates. The first is that I now have an incredibly cute little guy as my mascot!
Secondly, he bribed the out of me the state I'm vacationing in... which means that there's an extra hint !somewhere! on the Wiki. UPDATE: I took it down for privacy reasons.
18 July 2007
'Sup, homies? I decided to leave for my vacation with a bang. Check out the Mario Kart Wii article... it's been Stumpified. See you later! I'm-a get some sun! *burns to a crunchy crisp*
P.S. Yay! The proposal worked!
Stumpers' Services
Need a favor? Here's what I like to do... so if you need any of these things, drop me a line. Remember, no promises... I'm a kinda busy person.
Stumpification
This is one of my favorite things to do. I take an article, gut out its information and completely rewrite if from ground up… in one-to-three edits. If you feel there is an article in dire need of this, such as one that has the “rewrite and expand” banner at the top, please let me know on my talk page and we can see if I like it.
Peer Edit
Much different from the Peer Reviews that used to be on the Super Mario Wiki, my peer edit system is my assessment of an article and rewriting where needed. It’s pretty in-depth. The difference between Stumpification is that I keep the overall structure of the article unless I feel it really needs to be changed. I will send you back any recommendations I have for added information. If there is a peer review page, I will also do one of those if all of the problems I have with the article aren’t already solved.
Random Services
Feel free to make any strange Wiki-related request you have on my talk page. I may be able to help. Also, if you have a need of a writer or a peer editor off-site for one specific task, let me know. No guarantees, though.

Brief History of Naming
- "Stumper" era: I named myself after a character I invented for a point-and-click adventure game made with PowerPoint. The reason I chose this was because I couldn't think of a better name.
- "Stumpers" era: The addition of the "s" to my name was a mistake on my part. The reason behind it is that "Stumpers" refers to the game that the character "Stumper" stars in. Actually, the reason the game wasn't called "Stumper" was a mistake on my part... so it's a mistake based on a mistake.
- "spazafrazz" era: This was first used for my AIM screenname. I actually thought of a better name this time, because it was after I had been nicknamed "Spaz"... by two separate people independently.
- "Matt" era: Only used for Animal Crossing: Wild World, I called myself this because the in this game your in-game name doubles as your screenname. So, I could either have the villagers calling me "spazafrazz" or have everyone online know my real first name. I chose the latter because, seriously, there are about eight million "Matt"s in this world, so why does it matter? Yes, you can call me Matt now if you want because you were nice enough to read my page this far down.
- "Whettam" era: Whettam, pronounced "wet ham" is my full first name, Matthew, spelled backwards. I didn't want to let my Nintendo identity be effected by a name that had, over time, come to bother me. Whettam is also a character in the fictitious adventures of my family. The story goes that when I'm in the rain, I automatically assume my secret identity, "Wild pig in the Rain", or "Whettam." Yeah, pretty mean, if you ask me. But I'm a good sport, so I let myself be called this and let someone else be named Retep the Remarkable, a muscular, perfect youth who rides a winged horse. Just wait until the other gods find out his mother is queen of the underworld. At least as Whettam, my only responsibility is to be back in my clothes when I dry off.
What? You want a reward for reading all of that ****? Whiner. Okay... you can see my favorite forum avatar... banned for being "too creepy".
