Nintendo Enthusiast[edit]

I would like to inform you that after talking to an admin she told me that Nintendo Enthusiast is not a credible source so i had to revert all of your edits relating to that source. Thank you for understanding Raven Effect (talk)

Sorry to bother you[edit]

Are you Gamermakerguy from MFGG? --NewSMBU (talk) 09:18, 22 April 2012 (EDT)

Yeap that's right!

An Offer You Can't Refuse[edit]

Hey bro want to go smoke some joints behind the Marching Milde page out back? --IceShadow talk · edits) 23:04, 8 August 2012 (EDT)

what do you mean?

I didn't write any of that, someone hacked my account. Sorry for that. IceShadow talk · edits) 15:26, 10 August 2012 (EDT)

Rideable Yoshi[edit]

My copy of it is labeled the "Subscribers Only NSider Collector's Edition". I quickly took a couple of crappy photos from my phone (1, 2), but I can scan the full page if you want. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 22:31, 22 July 2017 (EDT)

Sounds good. Yeah you scan it that would be really awesome. Good job getting the issue! Gamermakerguy

Done! I'll link to it in the article soon. Also, as a protip: when it comes to signatures, writing [[gamermakerguy]] isn't good. You're linking to a mainspace article and not your userpage, which is both against rules and would let anyone edit it. Following the signature guidelines is necessary, but in short, using four tildes in succession (~~~~) works fine. If you want a custom signature with colors and images and whatnot, check out Help:Signature for a good starting point. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 23:26, 22 July 2017 (EDT)

I am so super sorry I will go fix it. Thanks for the tip! I had trouble figuring it out now with those links. Gamermakerguy

It's all good! Also, if you want to indent your sentences (add those small spaces to the front of your sentences), you do so by adding a colon (:). The more colons, the more spaced out it becomes, though the rule of thumb is to add one more colon than the person before you. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 00:02, 23 July 2017 (EDT)

Is this better? Keep letting me know and I will get better! Gamermakerguy

Yep, that's good, although since I used one colon at the front, you should then use two. You can see them when you edit the page. If you have any other concerns, I definitely recommend also reading through Help:Editing, which will help you with general format stuff like how to make lists or bold stuff, and Help:Preferences, which will show you how to tweak things if you're interested in that. If you want to seriously get into editing articles, then looking through the Manual of Style is highly recommended, just to let you understand some of the quirks that come with editing a wiki. Still, if you have any questions, you're more than welcome to ask them! Hello, I'm Time Turner. 00:33, 23 July 2017 (EDT)

Once again thank you. I think the fixed the space up now. Gamermakerguy

Re:File:Mgmetalmario.png[edit]

Hi, can you please stop uploading duplicate revisions? It's cluttering up the file history to the point where admins had to delete redundant entries. If you uploaded a file and don't see any changes, try refreshing the page or clearing your browser's cache. Xiahou Ba^{(the Nasty Warrior)} 21:34, 20 August 2017 (EDT)

I am really sorry for that... i was surprised no one uploaded Metal Mario's colors with better HQ, So I had to do it pretty much, but besides that, I was trying to figure out how to make the new image the current one and all i got was a stretched version of the old images with with the same pixels I got and it did nothing i thought the revert would change it but I am actually surprised that it gave you guys so many images i never intend do such a thing then it may seem. It was really confusing to upload an image. What's a browser catche? Gamermakerguy

Yeah, what's going on is that your browser isn't refreshed to see the changes, it happens to all of us that upload new variations of images; hence why you should refresh the page to see changes you made to an existing image. Basically, that's what a browser cache kinda does, saving older revisions of stuff on the web, though I'm not entirely 100% sure on that either, I just know that clearing the cache will update image changes you made.

Xiahou Ba^{(the Nasty Warrior)} 22:36, 26 August 2017 (EDT)

I cleared my cache so now it renders it correctly now instead of only showing the new file on the thumbnail. Thanks for helping! Gamermakerguy

Italics[edit]

Please remember to italicise all game titles mentioned by name, not just for the game title listed under the "References to other games" sections. Thanks. Mario JC 02:59, 25 September 2017 (EDT)

Please stop forgetting to italicize game titles on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Please remember this, as you forgot italics in your recent edit to the Super Mario Odyssey page. --TheFlameChomp (talk) 14:10, 21 October 2017 (EDT)

Edit warring[edit]

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (participating in an edit war) on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site.
If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

I'll give this same message to SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) as well, but please do not edit war and converse with the edit summaries. If there is an issue, talk to the other user on their talk page. 14:40, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Alright I will consult a staff next time that happens. I was only trying to do the right thing since I usually find proper resources. I will admit it was getting out of hand and it was a bit difficult to avoid because I didn't think he would keep going on that. Gamermakerguy

I kept going because I have provided multiple sources now and you guys still keep changing it to an incorrect color. All sources show brown, not orange. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 15:07, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

I am not going to keep this argument any longer now. You don't even have proper proof that it's brown when Mario collects it. The checkpoint flags even shows it orange since all Checkpoints flags are the same color as the Power Moons in that Kingdom. Seriously enough already Gamermakerguy

September 18, 2017. Right around the time of the Direct, showing a brown color. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 15:33, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

It looks more light orange than brown. it's just the gradient darkness that is making it browner. The footage also looks like it was being played in the early build because it's a reuploaded from another video and the lighting is different from the current build we are seeing now. The flagpole even shows it's orange again because of it being the same color as Power Moons in the kingdom they are found in October 13, 2017. Gamermakerguy

Footage from E3 shows orange flag poles and Brown moons, so if there was a change, we don't know when it happened. We are two weeks away from the game. Since clearly there is not a consensus here, and we have conflicting material, I vote we just return it to the "bronze" color it has been for months, or at least find a neutral color to use. You don't think they look brown, I don't think they look orange, we are at an impasse. What about Mahogany? Mahogany is a shade of both orange and brown and most people know what it means. Burnt sienna and rust colors are a good mix as well. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 15:58, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Mahogany makes a ton of sense to be honest with you. I can certainly vote this one more likely. Want me to include that color to end it actually well? Gamermakerguy

I'm good with it if you are. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 16:30, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Um, mahogany is a deep reddish-brown. Just go with Cream. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:30, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Mahogany wood is different in color to the actual color of mahogany, which is a reddish-orangish-brown. Cream is yellowish-white. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 16:35, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

And that moon is orangish white with a tinge of light brown. I'm just going with what my colored pencil has been telling me for years. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:42, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

The moons look lighter before you obtain them. For instance, look at this video of the Seaside Kingdom. The moon looks almost pink before obtaining it. As soon as Mario gets it it "turns" purple. --SinnohMasterGalaxy (talk) 00:31, 14 October 2017 (EDT)

Not the best resources but MS Paint says in the light parts that it's light orange when using the eye drop tool once it's collected. The hue in my RGB Editor shows it being 20 which is in the orange part meaning it's brighter. But looking at it again the icons on the HUD shows it being orange as well. I may as well pick Mahogany for the color since the color of the moon itself seems combined to those two colors. Gamermakerguy

It's been a while, so remember that no edit warring warning still applies. If something you added was removed, don't just add it back without talking to the reverter and also have more than just "I do research on them".
The King Boo trivia you are adding about the Pink Boos with crowns in Mario Party 7 I think is fine, though. 20:13, October 24, 2019 (EDT)

Even if I try to talk to some people it will be hard to communicate with some users to agree without knowing anything about it, especially with confusing subjective and preferences they have, even if they don't own the game or not, I am not saying they are stupid just because I said "I do my research", that wasn't my intention at all, I am trying my best to contribute to this site to help fix a few issues here, along with adding obscure details and sometimes corrections that not many people add. But in the end all I get is blamed on for the wrong things they don't like me adding just because I am simply helping, I try to be nice but instead I get bashed thinking they are right or if I am wrong for putting in details, it's really this difficult and unfair to put up with it. I'm not really a mean person then it appears. --Gamermakerguy (talk) 20:30, October 24, 2019 (EDT)

I know it can be difficult sometimes to convey what you mean properly (as someone with autism, that is very difficult for me), but as long as you handle things professionally, it will be fine. The more experienced users will usually handle things professionally as well, regardless if you do or not. Regardless, don't try to communicate through edit summaries, the page content should not be constantly changing.

21:18, October 24, 2019 (EDT)

Oh you have autisum? I can admit I have it too, nice to see we feel the same about it. Alright I will try professionally and and talk to them from now on if it doesn't go too well and if it's actually necessary --Gamermakerguy (talk) 21:27, October 24, 2019 (EDT).

NSMBW Beta[edit]

The picture of the red Toad in a Bubble does exist; I remember seeing it here on the wiki. Put that back. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:09, 31 October 2017 (EDT)

[1] This? In the gallery? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:11, 31 October 2017 (EDT)

Are you sure he miscolored it or was just an image he drew like how do we know it's part of the beta? Gamermakerguy

I never said either. All I know is it's clearly a red Toad that existed in plain sight in the gallery. Next time there's no proof, add a {{ref needed}} and don't immediately delete, as that is destructive and harder to undo. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:37, 31 October 2017 (EDT)

RE:Argument issues[edit]

I'll just copy/paste what I said on Burb (talk)'s page so you have a copy of it:

For the Cowboy outfit, the two look completely different. In Mario Party 2, it's just a different hat, scarf, and belt over Mario's overalls, whereas Odyssey gives him a completely different look with the only thing really remaining being the scarf. There's nothing concrete here.
For the Spacesuit, again, the two look completely different. In Super Mario Land 2, the suit is as bland as it could be, with Odyssey adding a yellow visor and other decals. Again, nothing concrete here.
For the Pirate Suit... I don't know where the connections to Mario Party 2 are other than "It's a pirate suit." Simple generic pirate suit, nothing more.
For the Invincibility Hat, other than turning invisible, there's nothing that solidifies a connection to Super Mario 64. It's name is different for one, but if it actually changed Mario's model like the Metal Cap, then it would be something. But why would they need to, he's invisible.
Only Tuxedo I'm finding is the Black Suit, so I hope that's the right one. If it is, there's no parallels to All-Stars.

I hope this third opinion helps (and that I covered everything). It is possible that Nintendo updated the suits, since it's been a long time since Mario Land 2 and Mario Party 2, but at the moment, there's nothing solidifying those claims. We can make a note that Mario has worn a similar suit before, but until there's official statement saying otherwise, we can't be certain that claiming these as direct references are true. 20:47, 13 November 2017 (EST)

Would you like me to not edit them back to what I put until it's confirmed to be official? Or just edit saying it resembles or something? Gamermakerguy

Let's wait for Burb to say something and come to an agreement then.

23:17, 13 November 2017 (EST)

Sorry for the late response, but I don't think they should be added to the page at all unless there's official word from Nintendo that those costumes were meant to be references. Thematic similarities are simply not enough when the costumes that are obviously references are more or less completely accurate with little-to-no changes. Even putting in a little footnote saying "Mario also wore a Pirate Outfit in Mario Party 2" is pointless and feels like padding, as does "Mario also wore a yellow neckerchief in a Cowboy outfit in Mario Party 2 but everything else was completely different". There's enough classic costumes that are clear references already, we don't need to add straw-grasping connection for all of them. Burb

Project64[edit]

Project64 v1.6 is suuuuuuuper old and I don't recommend that. Project64 v2.3 is the latest version and has a ton of fixes. See my WIP for more information. I even recommend non-pack-in graphics plug-ins. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:56, 17 November 2017 (EST)

I appreciate the feedback but I am not going to re-upload those Mario Tennis character screenshots again, because they were already hard work to do as it is. I am not going to re-upload them just because something isn't being displayed right, but next time I upload a brand new image i will use that, Isn't 2.3 unofficial? The characters are fine and i only wanted to upload the characters and there palettes since no one would screenshot them. I use 1.6 a lot because most ROMs and Hacks are compatible on there.

Gamermakerguy.

No, v2.3 is official. Wikipedia wouldn't list it otherwise. Pre-2010, the dev team teased v1.7, but behind a donation paywall. Post-2010, they decided to drop donations to play the latest Project64 release, by releasing 2.0 free for everyone, probably due to the controversy of slow development of testing v1.7. Many people considered v1.7 unstable compared to v1.6 despite the fixes the newer version introduced. However, Project64 is still considered the best N64 emulator, but is very behind and not where people expected N64 emulation to be. Third parties took it upon themselves to improve the audio, graphics, RSP, and input plug-ins, such as Glide64, GlideN64, and angrylion. There is even debate Project64 dropping Jabo's plug-ins because the third party plug-ins fair much better and are more feature complete. Also, the official site links it. There is even a GitHub repository that has code updates since January 2017, but you have to compile it yourself. The latest Project64 release has 64DD support. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 03:33, 18 November 2017 (EST)

Old revision[edit]

Please be careful of what you did here - you seem to have made an edit on an old revision of the article, undoing every edit made after it, include the official exact release dates for the Nintendo 3DS version of the game. Make sure you're editing the current version of the article next time (without the "out-of-date revision" warning at the top). Just FYI. Mario JC 23:04, 2 September 2018 (EDT)

My bad for messing that up, I will make sure it won't happen again. Gamermakerguy.

Image categories[edit]

After removing {{uncategorized}} when uploading, the correct way to add the image category link is with square brackets ([[Category:New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Images]]), not curly brackets, as that transcludes the category page onto the file page instead. Mario JC 22:08, 17 September 2018 (EDT)

Thanks for giving me the tip now I will remember it better, I'm trying very hard to get used to it. Gamermakerguy.

Mario Bros[edit]

What was with that comment about "linking?" GBA games are available on the Wii U virtual console. Here are the sprites and their palettes. They don't need sourced. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:27, 20 September 2018 (EDT)

Sorry, I was just trying to help keep this wiki accurate, that's all. Most people tend to make fan fiction info and they don't tend to be edited out. Gamermakerguy.

What do you mean by "most people?" That rarely ever happens. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 04:13, 20 September 2018 (EDT)

Like there is false, misleading and other made up information and sometimes they don't get fixed. I've noticed, even if it seems accurate or not. One time on the New Super Mario Bros. U page they made up some Silver Baby Yoshi that was able to dig up dirt which even they had no source. There were some other ones but I forgot about them. It's hard to believe but I would never make up something like that. That is why I'm trying to make it help. So sorry it was miscommunication. Gamermakerguy.

Undoing edits without a good explanation for them[edit]

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site.
If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Never revert someone else's edits without a good explanation. This counts for mine too, particularly on the New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe page. Keep this up and you could be in big trouble. – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 10:06, 20 December 2018 (EST)

Um wow, this surprised me when I just woke up. I didn't even know you would get this annoyed at that as I finally read you're talking page of what you really hate and just started to know so0me things about you, I actually didn't even know you would get annoyed, so I'm very sorry to hear this from you. I was trying to do my job at helping with the page neither was I trying to start a war with you. though, I'm afraid that I was right about Toadette having a timer though and it shows even better in the video. See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvzMKLmoxZk Gamermakerguy.

I'd suggest making an appeal, as I'm pretty sure that isn't a warnable offense, as it wasn't an edit war. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:50, 21 December 2018 (EST)

Uploading Image Tip[edit]

Hello there... Thanks for uploading HQ versions of images for NSMBU Deluxe. However, for the future make sure you crop our unnecessary blank space surrounding the images. I went ahead and did that but this is a heads up for future reference. Thanks!

User:Sdman213 17:37, 10 January 2019 (EST)

I plan to upload some more and oh cropping had to be done? Oh my bad I can do that and it can be any size as long as the gaps in the images are lowered? Expect some more today I always make sure if there is some shading difference between the original artwork and new ones. User:Gamermakerguy

Just look at my reuploads for reference. How you've done them made them unnecessarily large files. It's a simple fix so no harm done.

User:Sdman213

Sentence structure[edit]

On the NSMBUD page, you seem to keep structuring your sentences like this, which is incorrect:

In New Super Mario Bros. U. Toadette was not playable.

You're writing a single sentence as two. When written this way, "In New Super Mario Bros. U." is one separate sentence, which makes no sense. They should be joined with a comma, not a period/full stop. Something to keep in mind. Mario JC 01:21, 19 January 2019 (EST)

I apologize for messing up with my sentences on some of the edits I make. I find it confusing sometimes whether it's one or two sentences the way it's worded I will try harder on my next edits. Thanks, I will use your advice Gamermakerguy (talk)

You're still kind of struggling with this. "While no actual Bull's-Eye Banzais appear in Mario Kart Tour." is not one sentence, because it's dependent on the info that follows it ("...the game introduces a red variant to the Bullet Blaster also named the Bull's-Eye Banzai.") If you wrote just that first "sentence" on its own, it wouldn't make any sense because it's not joined to anything. You'd need to connect them with a comma. Mario JC 22:01, October 20, 2019 (EDT)

Your sentence structure still needs some work. Please read through this again. These should not be single sentences:

"Three years after Shigeru Miyamoto's interview." What happened after the interview? Whatever happened needs to follow with a comma. If you say this by itself, this doesn't provide any information.
"Rather than and simultaneously from the original Wii release." The "rather" doesn't refer to anything. The thing that was done "rather" than this needs to be connected with a comma.
"In Wario's Woods for the SNES." Same as the first one. The sentence alone doesn't explain what happens in the game.

I'm sorry if this might be bothersome but please don't shrug this off. I'm trying to help you because you keep making the same mistake that I explained to you, and since you're going to be editing a lot on the wiki, this is something as an editor that you need to know. Don't make phrases beginning with "After...", "If...", "When...", "While..." etc. a separate sentence; you need to join them with a comma. I strongly suggest taking the time to Google and read up on dependent clauses, specifically adverbial clauses. Mario JC 06:55, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

Hey I was away so I was never trying to shrug it off and neither am I am trying to ignore you even if it seems unbelievable. But I guess it's time I told the truth already. I...have a learning disability and I have a lot of trouble forgetting things (due to poor memory, which I realize) even after I just learned it a lot even if I did my research and even as I talk verbally or non-verbally in a conversation with someone other than a simple hi or hey. I never know how to start a proper sentence and I hesitate sometimes if this is right or not. I'm not trying to troll you on this at all and I sometimes hate my flaws a lot and want to improve but all I do is mess up too much. Maybe I was wrong with myself trying to help and I was not cut out for it after all. I'm sorry for you wasting your time for dealing with me for every edit I make --KingGeoshiKoopshi64 (talk) 19:33, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

I'm letting you know because you can fix this. It's the same structure as "Due to a glitch in the emulator, ..." which you wrote correctly with a comma ("Due to" is a subordinating conjunction like "Because...", "After...", "If..."). You'll get better once you understand the grammar of it a bit more.

Mario JC 21:35, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

Ohhh, thank for the encouragement. I try and proof read it a bit more. I guess maybe I can't notice the comma being there or not since it's so small than the text itself. Thanks again, I will try much harder and make this wiki better in some ways. I was quite proud finding out about the precursor to Metal Mario's (form) origins. --KingGeoshiKoopshi64 (talk) 23:28, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

Your latest upload[edit]

Where did those images come from??? [-]€40 vv@(talk · edits) 16:24, May 24, 2019 (EDT)

I found them on Nintendo Wikia there is a user on there who is a UK Nintendo Ambassador and uploads the artwork to that site. Gamermakerguy

Uploading Image Reminder[edit]

I've mentioned this before, but the images you have uploaded are sometimes uploaded with unnecessary space around the image... a recent image of builder Mario you added was 5,120 × 5,120 when the image itself was really 2,323 × 3,857. Please make sure you crop unnecessary space so they don't need to be re-uploaded. Thanks!

User:Sdman213

I highly apologize for not doing that again. But I tried saving them and then cropping them but it wouldn't let me upload them for some reason on here and I made sure to use it with programs like Paint.NET to make it transparent, I'm not ignoring your advice and appreciate you reminding me again but I'm sadly not able to save the image, then crop it, and upload it since this sites upload won't allow me I forgot what the error message said, I'm doing the best I can to contribute with this site. User:Gamermakerguy

What computer do you have? I'm sure you can find an application simply for image cropping. User:Sdman213

I originally used Windows 7, but now I am using a Windows 10 since my old PC's tower's motherboard got destroyed. Maybe I will try again with the upload and see what happens. User:Gamermakerguy

"Instead of"[edit]

See this summary. You should check the page's history if you've noticed something keeps getting removed. Mario JC 00:22, June 14, 2019 (EDT)

I highly apologize for this. I am Canadian and was taught to use "instead of" as proper grammar and they say that is the right one in my country. I do watch the history frequently every morning for some games or pages I edit. Gamermakerguy

"Instead of" is a legitimate phrase, it's just not correctly used in this case.

Mario JC 00:56, June 14, 2019 (EDT)

Alright I will do that from now on I am trying my best and sorry I am annoying you again. Gamermakerguy

You're not being annoying, everyone makes mistakes.

Mario JC 02:06, June 14, 2019 (EDT)

Meowser[edit]

Hi, do you know where you obtained the higher resolution version of File:Meowser artscan.png? L 151

This is probably going to be a very weird and unbelievable source/story, but I found it on the Fantendo. https://fantendo.fandom.com/wiki/Meowser I've been searching for an HQ render of Meowser for a long time until I stumbled upon one, I used Chrome's search image to see where else it was found but could not find any other sources other than just poor quality images or the HQ image with the black background used for Super Mario Maker 2 which I have with me even though transparent is better. Somehow Fantendo was the only one to have the same exact artwork but transparent while the only other HQ artworks are with the black background as stated above and that artwork uses the exact details like the one I found on fantendo. It's possible the user who uploaded it to fantendo is/was a Nintendo Ambassador much like how Yoshi.Noir is a UK one and uploaded HQ artwork on the Nintendo Wikia. User:Gamermakerguy

It's very noticeably been cropped from the black background, there are black artifacts everywhere in your image. I'd rather we don't pull anything from Fantendo at all, as much of their sources are vague at best and edited at worst. If you could upload the image with the black background that would be great. Nothing wrong with a background.

11:13, August 17, 2019 (EDT)

Mario Kart Tour images[edit]

hey, out of curiosity, where did you find the graphics you uploaded from Mario Kart Tour? I've been trying to find someone who has extracted images from the game but I can't seem to find any, and yet you have uploaded these. Thanks in advance - Qyzxf (talk) 12:14, September 27, 2019 (EDT)

A friend of mine named "El Vallo" datamined the images in-game and he allowed me to upload them on here, which is also why I listed him as an artist. Gamermakerguy

In that case, is he able to get the images of the remaining items, karts, gliders, and tracks that have not been uploaded? Additionally, I've noticed the artwork for Mario is slightly different in the game than it is on the site, so that one would be nice as well! Thanks - Qyzxf (talk) 08:54, September 28, 2019 (EDT)

RE: Fright Mask Spirit being a Bowser doppelgänger[edit]

I can understand Belome because of your description, but the Fright Mask / Jar isn't a clone of Bowser, it just creates a figure that looks like Bowser. It doesn't act like Bowser in any way other than looking like him. While I'm aware that is the exact definition of what a doppelganger is (considering I created a similar being), it's a temporary apparition and not actually a character itself. Like a shadow figure on the wall. It's more an illusion than a doppelganger.

As for italics, you add them like you normally would, except they don't apply to category links. Italicized links in categories mean they are a redirect and is automatically done if a redirect is categorized. 00:11, October 4, 2019 (EDT)

"Why does Hammerhead Bros, Cork and Cask, Jellyfish Sisters, & Starshade Bros. qualify for a doppelganger category but the Massif Bros.can't?! Zero sense."

They're closer to doppelgangers than the Massifs are. They have naming, movesets, and coloring similar to Mario and Luigi, while the Massifs do not outside of being siblings. That said, "doppelganger" isn't the right term for them, either; these people reference Mario and Luigi but aren't Mario and Luigi. A doppelganger is someone who looks exactly alike, which all of these guys are not. The category needs cleansed.

Funny you just said that it needs clean-up because I actually did a bit of a clean up for Mario & Luigi's doppelganger category already and even I removed Midbus from Bowser's doppelganger category page as well since he doesn't resemble him much either. gamermakerguy (talk)

If you're trying to categorise the Luigi version of those forms, you do that on the redirect. Mario JC 02:28, October 4, 2019 (EDT)

Thanks for the help all of you! I've been wanting to do these categories forever. Luigi had so many of his own it was certainly warrant to get him his own category page and Peach had just enough doppelgangers to get it too everyone else just isn't needed at this time including like Yoshi and Toads having species. Should I give Mecha Koopas a category due to them seemingly modeled after Bowser in some ways, having Koopa possibly because of Bowser's last/Japanese name, having the ability to breath fire and looking quite similar from the Micro Mecha-Bowsers vice versa along with them being variants to each other, Gold Mario I mean he is separate in Mario Golf World Tour but he is actually Mario during his bogey animation in the DLC, But he is a skin of Metal Mario in the Mario Kart series, Babies, due to them being separately together with their adults despite actually being past versions of the present characters in spin-offs especially in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Cat Peach & Tanooki Mario since they are separate characters in the Mario Kart 8 because I've noticed that Bowser's doppelganger category has Dry Bowser there due to him being separate but debuted as a form. I wanted to check before I get to that conclusion of fixing everything else. I also can't make the Super Paper Mario version that was technically the first Dark Bowser to have a redirect category to Shadoo due to the more recognizable one from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story having an article of the same name (I had ideas of moving the page as Dark Bowser (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story). Neither can I make False Mario & Luigi direct pages for False Characters that appear in the The Great Maze from Super Smash Bros. Brawl gamermakerguy (talk)

Because Bowser's Inside Story Dark Bowser is a different character than Shadoo, so he gets his own article. The {{about}} at the top explains how to get to Shadoo from Dark Bowser. Perhaps Shadoo itself could be categorized with the doppleganger categories? 22:17, October 4, 2019 (EDT)

Alrighty I decided to take your suggestions, it's for the best. Also permissions with any of those articles to get the category too? Sorry if it's long of a reply. I've been thinking about making the Bubble Clones have their own re-directories but I'm not sure if that is necessary since they are just evil bubbles that duplicate all characters? gamermakerguy (talk)

Marking your recent edits as "minor"[edit]

Hey, you've been making a lot of edits recently which have been simply to add a category to the page. While doing that, you should mark the edit as minor. This is explicitly stated on the Warning Policy, but I just wanted to let you know just in case you were unaware. This is NOT a reminder or a warning. --MikhailMCraft (talk • contribs) 13:05, October 4, 2019 (EDT)

I didn't know that counted as minor. Okay I will do that from now on when adding a category, i'm trying to do clean-up on the doppelganger categories. gamermakerguy (talk)

Baby Characters[edit]

Past versions of a character ARE that character, them appearing alongside their future selves notwithstanding. To clarify further: yes, Baby Mario et. al. are considered separate for the purpose of things like character selection and such, but in terms of actual identity they are just that character, but a baby. -- Lord G. matters. 00:32, October 5, 2019 (EDT)

Shouldn't that technically be the case for like Metal Mario, Tanooki Mario, Gold Mario, etc. since they are just Mario with a different power-up but being separate then? Same going for Dry Bowser who is just Bowser but melted from lava but became separate of a character.
