The 'Shroom:Issue 166/The 'Shroom Spotlight

The 'Shroom Spotlight Written by: and



Hello readers of The 'Shroom, and welcome to Spotlight. Spotlight is a community project which aims to fix up the articles on the wiki which have issues. These issues can range from poor writing to a lack of images, to even just needing a credible source.

Welcome to not only January's edition of Spotlight, but the first Spotlight edition of 2021! Let's be real, 2020 sucked for many of us, but I hope that readers of The 'Shroom and visitors of the wiki were able to enjoy the website and distract themselves from what was happening in the world. The MarioWiki is a huge community, and I hope that we will all have each other's backs going forward into this brave new year.

Our final edition of Spotlight in 2020 did pretty well. created the Jumping Boots article, reworded Princess Shroob's personality,  expanded on what Buttons do, and  reuploaded File:M&LPIN Elder Shrooboid UFO.png. The only two that didn't get done were finding a source for Toadsworth's connection to Princess Peach, which, admittedly, is probably very difficult to find nowadays, and the additional images for Star Hill. Thanks to our editors for helping out!

And now onto this month's focuses (we got a winter theme!):

Now just before I leave you, I'd like to tell you about unimplemented proposals. There are currently sixteen that need to be implemented, one of which dates back to 2018, so think of this as a continuous Spotlight goal until they're all completed.

Thanks for tuning in to the newest edition of The 'Shroom Spotlight! Be sure to turn up next month, where we'll be reviewing the progress on the above focuses. If you have any questions or suggestions about this month's set of the article focuses, then please get in touch through the dedicated topic if you have a forum account. If not, then please contact us on Yoshi876's talk page or Alex95's talk page, but you are far more likely to get a quick response if you go through the forums. You are also welcome to make suggestions on what you think we could focus on in our next edition! Thank you, and good luck!
