Create Super Mario Maker level articles
So far, the only existing article discussing a Super Mario Maker premade level is Ground. The remaining articles that don't exist yet should be created as soon as possible.

Proposer: Deadline: November 19th 2015, 23:59 GMT.

Support

 * 1) I support this.

Comments
This shouldn't be a proposal. It has been discussed and it's already a-ok to create those articles. If you're so intent on creating them because no one else has, create a Wiki Collab thread on the Mario Boards instead. 16:31, 5 November 2015 (EST)
 * ^ I was going to oppose for mostly this same reason. 16:32, 5 November 2015 (EST)
 * It's not necessarily an oppose. I technically support it, but we don't need a proposal to kick-start creation of articles. 16:33, 5 November 2015 (EST)
 * The other thing is that this is in the wrong section of the page. It pr'y should be in "New Features" but I could be wrong. 16:35, 5 November 2015 (EST)
 * It doesn't matter. 16:47, 5 November 2015 (EST)
 * Per. Proposals are for contentious issues. This proposal isn't needed, nor do I think we even need to archive this. 16:58, 5 November 2015 (EST)

New features
None at the moment.

Removals

Names in Other Languages organization for Mario episodes
I've been getting a little tired of seeing the Latin American and Spanish names of Mario episodes in one row, like this:

The same goes for Portuguese names. This also counts for rows like this:

In case of that one, I would edit it in a way that makes it result in this:

So one of the decisions I made about it is to separate the Spanish/Portuguese language rows from one another, in a way that looks like this:

I already did this to most, if not all, of the Mario episode articles. But you can help contribute to this.

Support

 * 1) I support this, considering that I am the one who proposed this.

Oppose

 * 1) "NOA" and "NOE" are the wrong abbreviations to use, implying that Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Europe played a hand in the localization, and that's not true. The explanations in the section do their jobs well enough. If something like the Latin and Spain language differences are a problem, then we should change the templates themselves. The NOA and NOE parameters were created with the games in mind, and I simply don't think it's a good idea that we stretch it to include cartoon dubs.

Comments
But NOA stands for Nintendo of America and NOE stands for Nintendo of Europe,both which are localization and promotion branches for Nintendo. Are you sure they played a part in localizing languages outside of English (since the show is American)? 13:10, 4 November 2015 (EST)
 * Not at all, but I think it feels good because it also tells the language types apart. 18:32, 4 November 2015 (EST)
 * But that would be misleading, since it leads readers into thinking that the abbreviations are Nintendo of America/Europe localizations when in fact they're not. Also, an original dub is different from a redub and has nothing to do with the different localization branches of each Nintendo of country companies. 19:38, 4 November 2015 (EST)

Miscellaneous
None at the moment.
