Scuttle Bug
Despite everything, there's still a scuttlebug.

Hey, this is our page! Uh, extremely brief bio, we're the Seven Stars, a plural system of, funny enough, 7! (...If in doubt, just ask Cam, she's the host.) (No relation to Super Mario RPG, funny enough.) We like Mario games, and specifically documenting/way overthinking the strange ones and the strange things in the not-as-strange ones. Our username here was formerly Camwood777, so if you saw that on old proposals or Shroom issues, that's us.

At any rate, see you around!

Current Status

We are currently: IN #PARTYTIME (PRESENT)
We've got a family wedding on July 24th, and are going out for vacation from July 26th to July 31st, so we'll have reduced activity for the forseeable bit in terms of the wiki itself, as we're going to be focusing on the Mario Awards ceremony both before and after said vacation, since, y'know, time sensitive. We're almost done with the first pass of every game's tables! A few stragglers remain that we wanted to revisit, but we're in the home stretch here! We've updated our Rogue's Gallery to feature (feacher) a designation of things we're working on beside the present Big One, and if you'd want to help out with any of these, just let us know; we would love to coordinate things!

Obviously, our activity here is on various ebbs and flows of activity and less than that. We're always at least a little active, lurking by reading articles off-and-on our watchlist, voting on proposals, and chipping away at any minor errors we notice, but of course, we'd like to think there's times we do more than that. Hence...

  • ACTIVE: We are literally in the midst of, or just off the heels of, a huge Wiki-related project.
  • PRESENT: Nothing particularly intense going on, but we're definitely around. Usually chipping away at a more minor project or helping someone else with one of their own projects during this.
  • LURKING: Our default state of existence. Expect us to lurch from the shadows to snap up wayward typos, vote in proposals, and of course, keep a close eye on our watchlist. You can still message us if you need anything, and we'll probably catch on sooner than you think, especially on the Discord; just don't hold your breath on it being a particularly fast response if you choose our talkpage, okay? If it's urgent enough, you can try the Mario Boards or the Discord. If we haven't updated this in awhile, and most of our activity seems to be in proposals, you can safely assume we're lurking.

The Rogue's Gallery

Things we're working on, would like to do someday, or at least coordinate an effort for. If you want to pitch in, seriously, all you have to do is ask!
Entries that we are actively working on are marked with this hammer: Workin' on it!

  • Wikitable Rework & Adjacent Stuff Workin' on it!: This is THE Big One. We made a proposal just to add consistent series colors to the tables, and before we knew it, we fell down a whole abyss of sisyphean designery and infrastructure. That metaphor sounds a little negative, but we like it down here, don't worry! Our short-term goals involve finishing our first pass of every game's wikitables, and orchestrating a Pipe Project for the effort. Our long-term goals are to do a second pass of every game's tables to help bring more parity between their formatting, eventually do something similar for alternative media (movies, albums, manga, etc.), and after that... We guess, we'll just chip away at whatever tables we find, like some kinda renegade? ;P
  • The Rest of the Japanese Home Computer Games: This is probably the next largest one, since we've accidentally found ourselves the squatter's rights expert of Super Mario Bros. Special and Donkey Kong 3: Dai Gyakushū. While we don't know how intense this would actually be, we already checked and saw this would actually butterfly effect into creating a proper stage list for Mario Bros.. Not Mario Bros. Special, base, ordinary Mario Bros.. Whoops! We'll get there eventually.
  • WarioWare: D.I.Y.maxxing Workin' on it!: We've been informed that there's plans to coordinate an effort for this via Pipe Project, so we are relenting for now, but rest assured, this game in particular has not eluded us as a game we're both more than capable of giving a more focused eye, and has plenty to work with for that. We're just waiting for the call to come in to go all-in, but even until then, we'll chip away at this as we deem fit.
  • Game & Wario Cluck-A-Pop & etc. information Workin' on it!: We are entirely convinced they didn't expect a soul to try to 100% this game. Proper capture is a big hurdle, as well as being sufficiently cracked at Pyoro, but we would love to finally give this game's equivalent to Souvenirs its flowers. We've enlisted the help of our younger sis, but also, she's busy in of herself, so we won't prod her too much on things. We're working on this one very off-and-on, but if you pitched in, we'd gladly take the help!
  • The Super Mario Bros. Special Album: So here's an interesting one... This is like, half-album, half-radio drama. It has an entire narrative to it it tells via both the music in it, and various "DJ" tracks. One day, we'd love to get help translating this, and writing little synopses for each of the songs' narrative plot beats! While we don't understand the words, we definitely love what we've heard. (Bowser has a seriously impressive singing voice. Who knew?) If you know Japanese and/or are part of the Foreign Media Pipe Project, feel free to message about this one specifically!!!
  • Princess Peach: Showtime!: Yes, seriously, the entire video game. Like, all of it. This game is presently a tremendous knowledge gap in the wiki, and while it's gotten a little bit better after some of our preliminary efforts, we are nowhere near satisfied with it. Of course, sitting down to play it, let alone write about it, is its own state of affairs... Rest assured, we fully intend to get to this sooner, rather than later. (Someone literally bought the game for us for the sake of the wiki, we'd feel really bad letting that go to waste!)
  • Mario's Time Machine Deluxe Library Application: What is this thing's deal? Seriously, what is its deal? We saw one image of its menu that was blank enough to have Bowser's mom fully visible, but when we ran it, she had a bunch of stuff on her, so we had to use her sprite in the login screen instead. What is that thing? How does it work? Should we get transcripts of each of the descriptions off of it? Many questions and scant answers short of playing the game ourselves. We're brave/bone-headed enough to go for it, of course, but we would not be opposed to help.
  • The Merge & Split Proposalgeddon: Obviously, we don't want to launch these all at once, because. Good lord. We have standards! And entire policies about not letting that happen in bulk! But we would love to finally put all those loose "Articles to possibly Merge" and "Articles to possibly Split" templates to rest with a series of proposals. If you choose to aid with this, be normal about this!

In addition, in regards to any of our proposals we've launched that are unimplemented: all you have to do is ask (preferably on our talk page, so everyone can see it!), and we'll probably let you pitch in and help with them. Especially the larger ones, like the Cluck-A-Pop prizes. We are more than fine with people helping out with things we've proposed, and in fact, generally welcome that assistance; we'd just like it if you were to run it by us first! Helps keep things organized and make sure we know who's doing what.
