Uh, I think Wayoshi already did... 2 DAYies ago! DUHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! No, I AM SERIOUS with the DUHHH! thing.


 * No I think Wayoshi added that last night after plums suggested it.


 * He did. 17:41, 1 June 2007 (EDT)

Cussing
Should all cusswords be censored, we do have some young kids here.

I would acquiesce.

Cursing is bad, even in user space. I say go for it.

I say, YES. No curse words, that stuff should be in PG+ films/video games/websites etc., but not here, NEVER! Sorry if I sounded rude, I didn't mean any harm from that. - Pokemon DP

Well, I made it a proposal. Go vote.

Image Tag
Is there any way of seeing what pages have the "wanted image" tag?


 * Yes, Category:Image requested, everything in this category needs an image.

Thank you. -Girrrtacos

Candy Transformation Articles: Worthy or Worthless?
Hi. I'm Mrbenio. Yesterday, I did a photoshoot while playing Mario Party 8 to try and make articles about what all 14 characters look like when using all the transfomation candies (excluding Twice, Thrice, Slowgo, and Bowser candies). But all I got to work with was the T.V. and my brother's camera. It worked out okay, but every picture ends up with that T.V.-like screen, and not being a true screenshot (how do these guys manage to get genuine screenshots, anyway?). Also, like all forms of collecting, I end up getting repeates of the same candy. I just didn't seem to like it as I should have, and now I'm thinking of abandoning this project unless there's to be a better way of doing this. I know I have saw screenshots on this site that are really photos of T.V. screens too, but at least those are less "pixlated." To show you all what I mean, I have put the photos of 11 forms that I managed to get on the File list. Please tell me if their worthy of being in articles, and if not, how could they be more like "screenshots?"

 * Most of those screenshots seem fairly okay, but I'm not sure if every single character's transformations should get articles. For instance, your uploading of files for Springo Mario, Springo Luigi, Springo Peach, and Springo Yoshi suggests that you wish to make articles for all four of them; however, in a case similar to that of Raccoon Mario and Raccoon Luigi, articles for the forms separate characters using identical powerups are all put into one article with a template noting the clone information in the article, as seen in Raccoon Mario. However, I think one article for Springo Mario (as well as articles for Thwomp Mario, Vampire Mario, etc.) would be fine with use of that clone information template and that the screenshots are okay.

People Articles – Useful or Useless?
Why do we have articles on people who have voice acted for a Marioverse character? In terms of Mario information, there isn't much to write about them except the games and the dates they've acted in. So basically, most real-life human articles are going to be short. So should we start limiting the number of real-life human articles being created or just stop creating any altogether. Maybe some could stay like Gunpei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto. 13:26, 6 June 2007 (EDT)

Where have you been, Knife? Those articles could be expanded, for example, by how their potrayal of Mario was different from another portrayal of Mario, or Mario himself, and how many episodes they did, etc..

Couldn't we expand on their bibleographies or something? In any case, I think it would be a shame to get rid of them. They're the backbone of the series afterall... I mean, how would you like it if you weren't properly credited for your work? 01:14, 7 June 2007 (EDT)

I brought this up before (though I included consoles and companies in the argument previously) and I never really saw the point in having articles on the things Knife mentioned. -- Sir Grodus
