Talk:List of television series and films

Missing media

This page is missing super Mario no koutsuu anzen and an educational anime video posted by YouTube channel kiddo cabbusses's unpoplar obscurities called super Mario ABC no Utau video. Lord Falafel (talk) 11:32, May 29, 2019 (EDT)

Mario porn

Ok, hear me out this is going to sound weird, but I watched an obscure mario facts video earlier and found this out. The video said that people were making mario pornographic films and nintendo wanted production to stop, so they bought it to stop production. It was called super hornio brothers (1 and 2) Bobster (talk) 14:53, June 9, 2020 (EDT)

Information on that is already on the wiki here. It doesn’t belong on this article since everything here was created officially, and it is a knockoff. --TheFlameChomp (talk) 14:56, June 9, 2020 (EDT)

Illumination Mario film planned release date

Some information arose about the planned release date for the new Mario film. It is expected to release in 2022.

That information is already mentioned here as well as on the Illumination page. -- Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 15:39, August 26, 2020 (EDT)

Wreck it Ralph

Since "Pixels" is included on this list for having Donkey Kong, shouldn't we also include Wreck it Ralph for having Bowser?
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.110.227.46 (talk).

This is a list for articles we cover of films and shows that are part of the Mario franchise or treated as significant guest appearances. Bowser is just a cameo; he doesn't have an effect on the plot like DK in Pixels. Mario JC 21:26, October 11, 2022 (EDT)

Missing articles

I'm wondering if you are going to make articles for the media without any info at this point. I'm really wanting info on ABC no Utau Video and the ones that link to Nihongo Wikipedia.

Contestant articles

This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit this section or its subsections. If you wish to discuss the article, please do so in a new section below the proposal.

Billy and Carlos were children that appeared on King Koopa's Kool Kartoons. They once had articles, but were deleted due to them not being a character, and while they are a person, they are not relevant enough to warrant an article. Which I do understand, and accept. However, while writing the episode articles for the show, I was thinking of other Mario television series/videos that aren't well documented and the potential for expansion. This is when I thought about giving better coverage towards The Super Mario Challenge, which I haven't gotten towards yet because I'm occupied with other stuff like the List of advertisements stuff, Play Nintendo videos, and life challenges that have hit me lately. And even more so with what I have planned for the future. But if someone were to start a project to cover this series one day, what would we do with the contestants of that show? Would we give them articles? I feel like these people have more relevance since they were chosen to compete rather than sent to King Koopa's dungeon and having their names randomly be picked from a hat. And they actually have information to add, like how many points they received and whether they won or lost. This logic also applies to contestants from other shows like Super Mario Club, Super Mario Stadium, 64 Mario Stadium, and Mario School.

Proposer: Rykitu (talk)
Deadline: January 7, 2026, 23:59 GMT

Should we restore the King Koopa's Kool Kartoons articles?

canceled by proposer

Yes

No

1. Rykitu's Rad Cartoons (talk) Per proposal.
2. Salmancer (talk) Like, I just commented on Talk:Carlos on this exact topic. I don't feel like copy/pasting that here.
3. The Adventures of Wandering Poplin (talk) Like I said on Carlos's former article, That information would be better suited for the episode article the appear in, but we don't need full standalone articles for random one-episode contestants.

Should we create articles for other game show contestants?

do not create articles 1-5

Yes

1. 64 Rykitu Stadium (talk) Per proposal.

No

1. Salmancer (talk) This is not a topic where we should grant blanket permission to create articles. See comment.
2. The 68th Wandering Poplin Trivia Quiz-Off (talk) Per what I said in the above vote.
3. EvieMaybe (talk) at most, we should have a list of every contest winner, maybe in the show article itself.
4. Power Flotzo (talk) Per the others.
5. LadySophie17 (talk) Per all.

The Comments Challenge

This feels like a topic that requires nuanced discussion. I personally wouldn't have jumped straight to proposal territory. Regardless: Yes contestants are higher up on the publicity totem pole than audience members, since they signed up to be a major part of a production. (Some of them even stay in touch with Nintendo, if the Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition marketing campaign is any indication.) I don't think that means we should be giving every contestant an article. Things like points and who won can just as easily be noted in tables on episode articles. There are some people who I think could merit an article if we were an overall Nintendo wiki, such as winners of the Nintendo World Championships. If we were a Pokémon wiki, maybe one could argue for the Hall of Fame entrants from 64 Mario Stadium, but that is very much an edge case. Basically, I would only want to grant full articles contestants a program shined an extra big spotlight on, be that because the program itself has high publicity or because the program brought them in for some kind of special occasion.

I think a good metaphor might be developer articles. We don't have an article for every person who worked on a video game even if we know their names because of credits. We have articles for the especially high profile people who work on video games. Salmancer (talk) 11:44, December 24, 2025 (EST)

Okay, that was mean of me. I worry I hurt your feelings and I should be less dismissive in the future. To put things in longer, less reactionary form: I'm upset because I don't see the point of making including a vote for recreating the audience member articles. If four people agreed to delete the articles, and you agree to not recreate the articles, then is there a point in putting recreating the articles to a explicit vote? Usually, the point of a proposal is to change something that is currently true, which can be as big as changing how the wiki organizes something or as small as getting rid of a notice template. "Should we restore the King Koopa's Kool Kartoons articles?" is near guaranteed to result in "keep doing what we are already doing", and we don't need proposals to tell us to keep doing what we are already doing. Further, having a poll that will do nothing will pull focus from the poll about the topic that is interesting: the new topic of contestants. I think that putting out a poll where there's neither no really obvious change that people want to make nor a level of uncertainty on if we should make a change or not is to a certain extent wasting the time of contributors. (Even if a "keep doing what we are already doing" proposal gets all "per" votes so that users aren't taking time to communicate, its still someone's job to tally the votes, post the results, change the templates so that the proposal is resolved, update MarioWiki:Proposals, and update MarioWiki:Proposals/TPP archive.) Salmancer (talk) 12:52, December 24, 2025 (EST)

Don't worry, you didn't hurt my feelings in anyway. I created this proposal before I found the talk page for Carlos, and I added the option just in case some people would want to recreate the articles. But now I realize proposal options are meant for things the proposers want to change, and not bring up an idea you don't necessarily want. I'll cancel the first option and keep the second. (Thank goodness I didn't place this on the Kool Kartoons talk page like I initially was going to) Rykitu
