Why you can't make pages[edit]

You only just created your account, which means you are not autoconfirmed yet. You will get autoconfirmed after a week of being here and after making enough constructive edits, then you will be able to create pages, edit semi-protected pages, and make your own userpage Bowser Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

Stub articles[edit]

When creating articles, you need to put in as much information as possible, as well an infobox and categories. You also need to mention the game in the opening sentence and bold the name of the subject in its first mention. The state of the articles you are creating are not good enough to keep and will be marked for deletion on sight. You may want to look at Mariowiki:Manual of Style.

Writing[edit]

There are still a few things you need to keep in mind when writing articles. We don't use the word "you" when talking about the player. We say either "the player" or the playable character depending on the situation. You also need to remember to put any categories and necessary templates. Game titles must also be italicised e.g Paper Mario: The Origami King must be formatted like ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' (two apostrophes on each side, not quotation marks). I would strongly suggest browsing other articles to see the kind of writing we accept here and looking at the Manual of Style I linked in the section above, as that has everything you need to know about editing here. I'm only trying to help you become a better editor here. Bowser Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

You can sign your comments with ~~~~ Bowser Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

You can also always look at other Origami King articles to see how they're written. Be sure to check your own articles to see what improvements were made and keep them in mind. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 06:23, August 20, 2020 (EDT)

Please remember navigation templates and categories. They're the template and links at the bottom of the page:

{{PMTOK}}
[[Category:Paper Mario: The Origami King Characters]]

Read MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Navigation templates and MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Categories.

You're also still using the word "you" in articles. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 07:14, August 20, 2020 (EDT)

I fixed the pages that used 'you', I hope they don't get deleted, I really don't like it when a page gets deleted for stub, even if it's a minor part of the game.

Don't leave blank tables like the Names in other languages box in the Paper Macho Snifit Outlaw article either. Only create the table if you have something to put in it. Bowser Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

You still weren't following any of this with Red Jump Panel before users came and fixed them. Please refresh yourself with the above advice and read through the Manual of Style; if future articles continue to be created in this state, a formal reminder will be issued.

Images[edit]

Keep in mind also that any images you upload should be categorised, so the {{uncategorized}} part in the summary when you upload should be replaced with an image category link, in this case, [[Category:Paper Mario: The Origami King Images]] Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 06:30, August 20, 2020 (EDT)
