{{quote2|I'm a bureaucrat now?  Who's smart idea was THAT?!  Just kidding.  I hope to serve you well!|[[User:Stumpers|Stumpers]]|''Thought of the Moment''}}


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!
http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p38/StumpersII/ChristmasBear.jpg


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 [[User talk:Stumpers|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…
==What Can I Do For You?==
As a bureaucrat, it is my duty to help users such as yourself with any problems you might have.  This means questions on policy, editing, inter-user issues, and so on. If I do not have an answer, I can direct you to someone who does.  So, fire away by posting on my [[User talk:Stumpers|talk page]], provided your question is not, "How do I post a message on a talk page."


==Stumpers' Wiki News==
==Subpages==
====15 August 2007====
In addition to my [[User talk:Stumpers|talk page]] and its archives, there are two more pages in my userspace.
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!
*[[User:Stumpers/Stumpers's Wiki News|Stumpers's Wiki News]]: The final resting place of my discontinued feature, "Stumpers's Wiki News." With SWN, I would make a post to inform other users of notable edits I had made that day.  When I grew tired of it, I asked if anyone would mind if I discontinued it.  No one did, so SWN came to an end.
====14 August 2007====
*[[User:Stumpers/Test|Test]]: My test page.  I use it in conjunction with the [[MarioWiki:Proposals|proposals]] page when I need to illustrate what I'm thinking.
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.
==Stumpers' Featured Articles==
====12 August 2007====
[[File:Tetris DS NA Box Art.jpg|thumb|200px|If it weren't for Stumpers, [[Tetris DS|this game's]] article would be merged with [[Game Sightings]], also known as the [[Void]].]]
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 <nowiki>{{userhiatus}}</nowiki> 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.
====29 July 2007====
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 [[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge's]][[User 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====
[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge]] is responsible for both of these updates.  The first is that I now have an incredibly cute little guy as my mascot!
http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p38/StumpersII/StumpersFly.gif http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p38/StumpersII/StumpersWalk.gif
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!
 
====17 July 2007====
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?
 
====15 July 2007====
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!
 
====26 June 2007====
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.
 
====18 June 2007====
You can see a partial Stumpification of the [[Donkey Kong]] article.  My edit effects the article up to, but not including, the [[Donkey Kong Country]] section.  Also, the images haven't been edited, so don't blame me!
====17 June 2007====
I've recently been throwing around the idea of taking a vacation from the Wiki.  If this happens, I would definately plan to return.  I just wanted to post so I would feel like I could take the vacation if I wanted to.  I just have so much I want to get done, including resuming working out.  Nothing like a family members having heart problems to make you want to hit the track.  So, this probably wouldn't be a very defined vacation, as I'm very much into playing life by ear during summer break.  Just know that if I don't update for a while, you shouldn't worry... yet.
====16 June 2007====
Please view the recently "Stumpified" [[Rollout]] article!
====14 June 2007====
Today I continued to add more information to the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] article.  Really, check it out.  The history section is pretty sweet.
 
On a side note, the [[User:Great Gonzo|Great Gonzo]] is a fan of the black bear pic!  This means someone actually checks this page!  Sweet!  For those wondering what I'm talking about, check [http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p38/StumpersII/black-bear-0006.jpg here].
 
====11 June 2007====
I've "Stumpified the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] article.  Check it out.
 
I fell into the [[Abyss]] article, and I was forced to Stumpify it to stay alive.  I must remember to carry more [[1-Up Mushrooms]].  Remember this when you vote for "most addicted user".
 
Oh, and if anyone who owns ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' could edit the article to reflect the addition of [[Underwhere]] into the series, that would be appreciated.  I'm sorry, but I refuse to spoil a ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' game.
====10 June 2007====
I've uploaded lots of nice images for the ''[[Tetris DS]]'' article... and had some naming and deleting issues... Yeah, I'm expecting to get reemed out pretty soon... a moderator went ahead and did everything I told him I was planning to do out of the goodness of his heart... but I mentioned the wrong file name.  Ugh.  What an idiot I can be!
 
Oh, yeah.  Remember, kiddies!  Vote for Uncle Stumpers in the Wiki voting whenever the user awards come... you know you want to see more of my bumbling!
====9 June 2007====
Awards voting starts TOMORROW?!  Whoa!  I hope people think of me!  That means you! :) Drop me a line if you want my vote.  Just convince me by showing me your articles.
====8 June 2007====
Pictures have been added to the ''[[Tetris DS]]'' article by your's truly.  However, the article still has some problems.  If you'd like to help, even if you don't have the game, check out the [[Talk:Tetris DS|game's Talk Page]] or read through part of it for grammatical or spelling errors.  If anyone knows how to rename picture files, please comment on my talk page.  I accidentally uploaded one as its original file name, a bunch of letters and numbers, instead of one that makes sense.
 
In related news, I don't have the game either... oh, what you can find on the Internet these days!
====7 June 2007====
Please check out the recently "Stumpified" ''[[Tetris DS]]''!  Images coming soon.
====6 June 2007====
Please excuse my lack of updates!  No one seems to be on the Wiki lately anyway, and I was busy.  So be quiet.  It's not like anyone actually reads these.  Anyway, I'm working on a "Stumpification" (total rewrite) of the ''[[Tetris DS]]'' article.  It's going pretty good, but I have to hurry before the game becomes just another part of that silly [[Game Sightings]] article.  I mean, come ON!  We're a specialty Wiki!  We don't go combining articles like a full blown Wikipedia!  Gah!  Oh, yeah.  And it should be "Cameos in Other Games", thank you very much.  Grrrr... I'm in fight mode.  Hiya!
====4 June 2007====
I created the [[Super Mario Bros. Stamps]] article.  Take a look.  I think you'll like what you see.
====3 June 2007====
Recently created a signature.  Let's see how it looks, shall we? {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 19:11, 3 June 2007 (EDT)
 
Gentlemen (and all one of the ladies out there), that took way too much time.
 
==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.

*"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 ''matt''er?  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 Can I Do For You?

As a bureaucrat, it is my duty to help users such as yourself with any problems you might have. This means questions on policy, editing, inter-user issues, and so on. If I do not have an answer, I can direct you to someone who does. So, fire away by posting on my talk page, provided your question is not, "How do I post a message on a talk page."

Subpages

In addition to my talk page and its archives, there are two more pages in my userspace.

  • Stumpers's Wiki News: The final resting place of my discontinued feature, "Stumpers's Wiki News." With SWN, I would make a post to inform other users of notable edits I had made that day. When I grew tired of it, I asked if anyone would mind if I discontinued it. No one did, so SWN came to an end.
  • Test: My test page. I use it in conjunction with the proposals page when I need to illustrate what I'm thinking.

Stumpers' Featured Articles

North American box art for Tetris DS
If it weren't for Stumpers, this game's article would be merged with Game Sightings, also known as the Void.

This is a list of my ten favorite articles that I've played a major role in.

  1. Mama Mario
  2. Tetris DS
  3. Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
  4. Mario Strikers Charged
  5. Mushroom Kingdom
  6. Super Mario Bros. Stamps
  7. MC Ballyhoo
  8. Ninja (Final Fantasy)
  9. Vim Factory
  10. Peach Blossom

Do You Know Me on the Internet?

Here are a few of my current aliases. If you see me, drop me a line!

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 affected by a name that had, over time, come to bother me. Whettam is also a ficticious character as part of a massive in-joke with my family.

What? You want a reward for reading all of that slop? Whiner. Okay... you can see my favorite Mario Wiki Forum avatar... which Wayoshi banned for being "too creepy".
