Hey Shiny Metallic Dinosaur
Hi, welcome to the wiki! Feel free to ask me anything if you need, I'm happy to help. I might give you my Userbox a bit later, I don't really know you too well as of yet. And by the way, please sign your comments with ~. If you want, you can make a personalised signature like mine. - 05:25, 8 September 2014 (EDT)

Sigfix
Hey, your sig must fit in that nice box, so could you please modify the height of the image to make it smaller? Also, you are allowed to have more images and color... see mine.
 * Your signature looks fine. Great actually. - 03:00, 9 September 2014 (EDT)
 * A bit strange is that you are The Golden Yoshi but the link is blue. Just copy the input of mine and modify the color. And if you want to make the images slightly bigger, no problems, but must still fit in da box.
 * That is pretty good. The last thing is that "Yoshi" doesn't link at something. If you want you can link it to your talk for convenience.

Italics
As it says here, please use italics when referring to game names, even names of game series. Thank you.

Creating stubs
When creating articles, please put as much information as possible and not create one with very few lines. 12:26, 11 April 2015 (EDT)

 * SM3DW is a good game indeed, except that I'm terrible at platformer.. Yup that Champion Road almost killed me for sure. I wish that Nintendo publish another Super Mario Galaxy title for Wii U. CSR Lady_Bow_PM2.pngBoo-piranha.jpg 21:37, 1 January 2016 (EST)

PNG over JPEG
I noticed you are uploading screenshots in JPEG format. Can you please use the PNG format instead? It's a superior format to JPEG and Mario Wiki users seem to prefer it over JPEG wherever possible. The way MediaWiki works, PNGs can't simply be upload to overwrite JPEGs directly. It makes uploading new files much easier if PNG were used. I understand saving JPEG to PNG on a fundamental level is not recommended because you are converting from a lossy compression format (JPEG) to a lossless compression format (PNG), which will preserve the artifacts of JPEG, but for Mario Wiki, it makes uploading new versions of files much easier. There do exist batch image converters if you feel saving these images to PNG would be too tedious to do one by one. Try FastStone Image Viewer. Navigate to the folder containing non-PNGs and go to Tools > Open Batch Convert. Make sure that the output is a 24-bit PNG. I'm pretty sure that is the default setting but I'll mention it here just to be on the safe side because if you set it to anything else, color loss occurs. It's freeware for home users. Also, I learned about PNG Monster, which is a tool that can batch max compress PNG files to the smallest file size possible. Hope this helps reduce tedium. I hope you understand. I just hate to immediately tag new images for deletion after some just got done through uploading their stuff when I can get a more suitable replacement uploaded. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 19:25, 2 January 2016 (EST)
