Artwork
DO you know the site where you got this image from?


 * I think that is from Wikipedia, before they started merging all Mario articles together. The artwork itself is from the Super Mario World instruction booklet (I believe). -- Son of Suns

My Comic
Hey was your appearance in my comic ok?

BTW Heres your sprites. (If you care)

Uniju's Insult
''[19:06]  Yeah, SoS is an arrogant jackass. <_<'' This was what Uniju said about you in Chat, just so you know. He's been bad mouthing everyone, just check My page. He says the "F" word WAY too much, and he is flaming anyone he can find. Just giving you the heads up, in case you want to take some action.
 * There's no need to tell SoS about what is said about him in chat, DP. You can take action as necessary without ratting people out. 07:01, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
 * Then I'd get in trouble, everyone thinks I hate Uniju (when I really don't), so if I were to ban him from MarioWiki, everyone would be complaining to me.
 * Uh, you didn't do anything to insult Uniju. He got made because I was adding all his flame quotes to my Userpage, and when I said that you will not take his flames towards me very well, he said you were an arrogant jackass.


 * Okee. I would still like to know why he thinks of me that way, and what I can do to repair any wrongs. -- Son of Suns


 * From what I heard, it's your view on the stub-deleting policy. I dunno if there's more, thought.

Glowsquid

That's weird, 'cause I didn't vote either way in the proposal. -- Son of Suns
 * Well, I remmember hearing him babbling about how you think all stubs are one-liners and how you think they should all be deleted and blablablabla... Yes, it's weird.

Glowsquid


 * Wow. I am the one who archived the proposal, thus stopping all stubs from being deleted from that point forward.  I really don't care how the wiki views stubs and what to do with them.  That's why I didn't vote.  -- Son of Suns

Link to comics
Hi, these comics I linked to were published in a magazine that was given away for free. I am absolutely not sure if it makes any difference, but I think the fact that they were never supposed to be sold makes it acceptable to link to them. / Time Q 13:54, 22 October 2007 (EDT)


 * Okee. I'm not exactly sure what to do, so you should do what you feel is right. -- Son of Suns

Sandy Planet discussion
could we redirect Desert Planet to Pokey Planet? many Mario Galaxy expected people would wish it.


 * Well, they look like different planets. Pokey Planet will eventually be deleted anyways (I think).  We shouldn't worry about it until the game is released. -- Son of Suns

Comic Appearances
Well I'm not sure if this is it but these are the comics i've SEEN you appear in....


 * When Sysops Attack
 * Super Mario Wiki Adventures
 * Legend of the Sun
 * Purple Yoshi Comics (I think)

My Bad Yo
I'll stop calling people names. Thanks for setting me straight :D Fixitup

Dude....You deserve a signature :P


 * I have one. It looks like this: Son of Suns.  Hahaha. =) -- Son of Suns

Lol =D. Ok umm....would you like a better one?


 * I love the one I have now. =) -- Son of Suns

Ok =)

Hola SoS


 * Sup? -- Son of Suns

Oops
My apologies. I didn't know that, sorry. Bulbapedia uses information from anything, not just recent articles, so, that's why I did that. The Kirby edit to it was recent, however. King Dedede's Multi-Jump task was only confirmed yesterday! Can we keep that?
 * OK, now you just confused me. We can only add information on New articles, but we can't add information on New Subject articles? If you put it THAT way, you may as well just remove the template altogether.
 * I... guess. It still seems like a big waste to me.

Why did you revert my edits? do you know where did you hear that? I need a proof.

The savior of MWiki is on! Howzit going?


 * Savior of humanity? Yes.  Savior of the wiki?  That's pushing it.  Anyways...........I am doing pretty well.  Overburdened for sure, but well.  How are you? -- Son of Suns

I'm fine my self.. I'm just finishing of my comic right now.

Orange Fish
as you deleted orange fish article, must the Category: Ballon Fight Series be deleted? The only article that is in it it's Flipper.


 * Well, there may be more in the future, so we'll just wait until Brawl comes out. -- Son of Suns

Wikipedia
Huh... Wikipedia took info from Super Mario Wiki, too. Or another user take info from there, and put it here. Example: Rudy the Clown in Wikipedia - Rudy the Clown. However, i think that this non-original info is better than nothing, took from Wikipedia, Answers or another website. After all, Wiki is based in editing and another user can rewrite this in the future...--Caith Sith 13:45, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

Hi
you seem to do good edits, so i wanted to know if maybe, could you help with Princess Peach article? please Javier12345

Birthday!
My birthday is tommorow!

Nevermind. It was on November 15th

Can You Make Me Some Sprites?? Wario Bros. 21:42, 2 December 2007 (EST)

Alternate Canon
Recently I've been thinking about how we separate the The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!from the video game series and why. I read your Canonicity article, and as you know we're considering the show to be alternate canon right now. Just to clarify, what I'm talking about here applies only to the Super Show and not to the other shows by DiC, as I have not seen them yet.

I've seen the animated segments up to episode 20, and it's actually pretty consistent to the series in my opinion, especially if you think about other games we consider canon. So, I'm not sure why it would be considered alternate canon when its "creative licenses" are less than game such Strikers (changed characters' personalities, which then changed back) or Luigi's Mansion (blew open a huge plot hole--the death of Bowser, which we were able to fill with a lot of speculation) is considered canon. So, could you to tell me why you feel the cartoon series is in an alternate canon? What I want to do is combine the canon(s) in the biography sections of the character pages, but I don't want to go ahead without some approval.

My problem with all of the alternate canon stuff is that it doesn't seem to be backed up by solid evidence. I can see thinking of the Super Mario Bros. movie as alternate canon, as the storyline is drastically different, but the Super Show fills in the events immeadiately following Super Mario Bros. (if you listen to Mario's Plumber's Log at the start of each episode). You wrote, "Each comic, book, movie, and cartoon series is like their own little universe, all distinct from each other and the video game universe. -- Son of Suns" (Talk:Canonicity) but I can't see any more differences between the show and the video games than I see between multiple video games (say, Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars). 23:53, 13 December 2007 (EST)

I sorta need help...
Hey, I'm new here, and since I saw that you are on the welcoming comitee, I was wondering if you could tell me how to make my own user page. Boo Mario 22:08, 16 December 2007 (EST)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Sprite Request

Hello, Mr.Son of Suns. I want to know two thing:do you know any spriters besides Master Crash, and also, what is your userbox code. Help me out. I'm Nega-Mario

Image time!
Yo, Son of Suns. Nega-Mario here. I whipped up an image for ya. Here you go:

Instruction Manuals
Hey, SOS. DO you like my image. I like manuals too! I collect them, and I believe strategy guides to be just as important. I just went to my uncle's house in San Deigo, and he gave me two strategy guides! He also gave me an issue of Nintendo Power. And the best part? They all are from the time of the N64, my fave game console?

Back?
You're back... again? ;) Well, welcome! 15:05, 16 June 2008 (EDT)

Zomg you're back.... Are you? Gofer Glowsquid

Whoa, are you back again? If so, HI!! o:

I know we've never met, but hai. :D I've heard gret things about you, and I was hoping if we could be friends...please? :P -- 08:49, 19 November 2008 (EST)

OMG I KNEW THIS DAY WAS SPECIAL!!!! SON OF SUNS RETURNING ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!! REPRESENT!!! Hi SoS. I'm glad you're back!
 * Heya, Mr. Suns. Welcome back! 11:30, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Back? Was I ever gone? =P
Hey I may have more free time to work on the wiki. Any major changes I should know about? -- Son of Suns

OMG! I knew it! To Wayo, in your face! XDD You said that we should move on, but nuhhhhhhh!!! >:3 Anyway, it's possible that techinally you may still be busy on college...I'm glad your here anyway. :P There are a lot of changes happened ever since you left. The canonicity page you made had made some changes. See Canoncity for details. The Sightings page are completely updated, it's now called the References. The Chronology is also updated. The Trouble Center is voted to be destroyed because of the utterly lack of use and lack of cooperation. The Poll Selection is created recently, along with the Mario Calender. Listen, some people believed they need you, some people believe we should move on and get inspired by your work. They decided to move on, but kept the works of the wiki well-along going. There are so many changes... I can't list them myself. But maybe I can, DP's demoted, 's promoted. is promoted, and is promoted. Other details? Steve and I tried to upgrade the wiki to the latest version of the MediaWiki software... It turns out that were truly stuck with this cruddy version. The latest version looked messy... ;[ Anyway, that's all the info I have SoS. I GTG to school. I'm busy lately. Ciao! Shhh... there will be a image that it is 6MB, and it's the Mario and Sonic Wii boxart. It will be uploaded soon... ''*shifty*
 * Why hello there - RAP covered it up pretty well. Don't worry about the MediaWiki version - we can make do with this version. The problem is some of the extensions we rely on don't work with newer versions. 15:59, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Canonicity
All right! Glad to know you're fine with the canonicity changes! There's few things greater on terms of wiki-ing than to worry about working against someone's work just to find out that they appreciate the changes that have been made. You may notice I made a couple edits I made - those were simply made to comply with the proposal that called for the change to MW:Canonicity in the first place. According to it, since we don't have an official canon to work with, we can't say whether something is canon or non-canon, and then say which level of canon it is in. So, for that reason, I had to alter what you said about beta elements and fan creations. As you can see, I wrote that we don't cover fan creations because they are unofficial, and that beta elements, just like other development information, has a home at in character development and history sections. Great to have you back! 14:43, 19 November 2008 (EST)
 * Yeah, I totally agree! Chronology, in my opinion, is really unnecessary.  With the passing of two recent proposals, the one regarding canonicity and the one regarding article organization (see Banjo for a quick and dirty example... it'd be much better organization for a character with more appearances... I hate to admit that I haven't been able to put in enough time yet to do over an article as my own proposal dictated, but rest assured I have a rewrite of Mario in the works... I just want to make sure it's done right, so it's taking way too long), MarioWiki:Chronology is going to need another rewrite.  My work on it was my first attempt to squeeze the speculation out of our articles... but since then GhostJam came up with the initial idea that has since sparked what eventually became the canonicity proposal and the article organization proposal.  My gosh, just thinking about all the work that needs to be done around here in light of that makes my head spin.  We hardly cover alternate media at all on our big articles like Mario or Peach... hoo.  In any case, the only remaining purpose chronology still has here is to say, "Yes, there is a chronology.  We're not in the position to speculate about it on the articles, but for what it's worth, here's what we hardcore fans make of the continuity."  17:19, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Zomg ur back...

... Well I guess my brainchild is screwed then.

Aw btw, since you seems to be aware of your demotion, I'd point out that you can ask a Bureaucrat to get back your power. I don't think there's an instance where that trick failed. Gofer Glowsquid

Wow, your back, is this like the third time already? Good to have ya back! Don't worry those crappy n00b days i had are over, i was pretty pathetic back then >_>

Stay this time! :D

Chronology
Almost everything you said is currently reflected by our new article organization (per that proposal I mentioned... I'd link you but my computer isn't good with proposal archives). As for your questions:

1) The movie starts out with "what if," implying a "what-if scenario." That's not concrete enough to be put in the articles, which is why we can both be glad that the new article organization allows us to divide by media: the movie will be separate and we thus don't have to worry about continuity between them and the rest of the series. 2) I was not aware that Captain Rainbow was part of the main timeline, but I agree with whoever put it there. Super Smash Bros. has always had the fighters really being stuffed dolls or sentient trophies, never the actual characters themselves. On the other hand, Captain Rainbow had Birdo herself there. Luckily, Smash Bros. and CR are going to be separate from other games in the article organization... I'm repeating myself a bit. 3) Good question. I suppose there's nothing preventing a swap of those two sources.  This is the only thing you brought up where it would make a difference to the way the articles are organized.

Basically, the organization is based on separating every game, comic, etc. from every other game, comic, etc. (separate sections), then placing these entries into their respective series and media. For example, "Too Hot to Handle" would be organized as follows on Mario's article: Mario --> television appearances --> The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! --> "Too Hot to Handle" So, regardless of whether "Too Hot to Handle" is canon, it has its own little section that doesn't affect any other section. That being said, because the live-action segments happened before the cartoon segments, all of them are placed beforehand, alongside flashbacks. But, we won't be mentioning Baby Mario's adventures with Yoshi in that section of the article, just as we won't be mentioning Mama Mario's disciplinary measures in the Yoshi's Island section. 18:30, 19 November 2008 (EST)


 * Whoa! I'd just like to say, I feel like I'm talking to someone completely different than the person I thought I knew back when you were writing Canonicity.  It's exactly the kind of discussion that we're having right now that is the reason why I finally gave up on using speculation to organize articles.  I believe your first two points are completely valid, definitely not moot.  Something that many users underestimated was the Super Mario Wiki's ability to sway public opinion on the matters of canonicity and chronology: I can't tell you how many times users would try to refute my arguments against the TV shows being excluded from the canon by saying that it was "alternate canon!"  So, I'm very glad you brought that up: by posting MarioWiki:Chronology, I was doing what I was working against by rewriting MarioWiki:Canonicity.  However, I can refute your third point: the Super Show is very deliberate about referencing back to the Brooklyn days, and none of the live-action segments ever reference the cartoon segments.  The only references to the past are discussions and flashbacks to their youth.  I highly recommend you watch the set of three cartoons - you get the distinct impression that DiC was not trying to create a separate continuity from the video games (see the SMBSS intro, the supplemental material for SMB3, and "Mama Luigi," all three serve as a sort of retelling of events, albeit in very truncated, zany form.) both of which are retellings of  which gives more clout to the idea that Mario and Luigi never returned to their plumbing business.  However, in light of the fact that no official source has ever come out and explicitly, I could see dividing the Super Show section into live action and cartoon segments.  Just to give you a little more information on why I feel the cartoon show didn't initially set out to contradict the video games:


 * 1) Mario and Luigi enter the Mushroom World, defeat Bowser, and rescue Toad, just like in Super Mario Bros.
 * 2) Supplimental material for Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 states that after the events of the Super Show the four banish Bowser to the Banishment Zone (though unexplained means... perhaps Princess Peach's unexplained powers from the Super Mario Bros. introduction?
 * 3) Mama Luigi - nuff said. One of Luigi's fractured retellings of past events.  (remember Paper Mario 2?  Kind of funny how that lines up if you think about it... again, speculation though.)


 * What it all comes down to though is that by organizing the articles as the community agreed on, we don't need to speculate about anything you brought up, with the possibility of the Super Show. Currently, we are allowing sources like Yoshi's Island or Super Mario Land 2 to be at the front of their respective sections because of the obvious chronology, and so I would assume that the Super Show would work the same way, but we still need to think about that.  23:22, 19 November 2008 (EST)
 * I'd be fine with that... maybe it belongs in the Manual of Style? 10:44, 20 November 2008 (EST)

Hey, here's the proposal I keep talking about. 20:16, 20 November 2008 (EST)

Oh, are you back again? Welcome back, SoS. And... That's all I have to say.
 * Welcome Back! You probably don't know me tho :P

Hi im new to mariowiki so is there any advice you can give me? Mega Koopa

AHH, THE EVIL WELCOME TEMPLATE. Mega Koopa

Epic win
Dood you are so awesome. I see adminship in yo future. My name is ROB. Nice to meet you. :)

Welcome Back
What the header say.

Hello
I realized that my 'welcome back' comment up there was pretty hollow. So, let me fully introduce myself. I'm Stooben Rooben, though most users call me "Stooben" or "Stooby". Practically any variation or abbreviation of my user name has been used. :P Anyway, I've heard a lot of fantastic things about you, though I never got to meet you. You seem like a kind user, and I hope maybe we can talk some time. If there's anything you feel that you weren't filled in on that happened over the year, feel free to ask me what happened. See ya around! :) 10:36, 22 November 2008 (EST)
