Hello, and welcome to the User Page of Leirin. You can just call me Lei for short, as I have used that monicker since I was in kindergarten. I am a big Mario fan, and (loyal) Nintendo fan in general. I contribute to this Wiki mainly through Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars articles (my personal favorite Mario game), Paper Mario series articles, and Super Smash Bros. articles. I am a member of the PipeProject for Smash Bros.

About Me
I am a big fan of Mario and I have been since I was 4 and a half! I had heard of this site via Google image searches for various Mario characters as a reference in the past, and decided to take a look around the Wiki. I found some things I wanted to edit/add, but realized I had to make an account first. Luckily for me, registration was easy and didn't require a truckload of personal information unlike most Wikis, so I joined! My favorite characters are Geno and Luigi and I enjoy writing as a passtime!

I like Mario RPG games and 3-D adventure games, and so I usually work (or aim to work) on articles relating to the two genres the most. I am also a Random Page Patroller! It's easy--just keep hitting the "Random page" button until you come across something you know about. If you have any information you can contribute, do it, then resume your random page patrolling!

What not to do in an article!
Hi, and welcome to What not do do in an article!. I will give some examples of what you probably shouldn't do in an article, and give some tips on making your writing sound much nicer and more encyclopedic! Of course, this can all be found in their respective Help sections, but I felt like giving things a more personal view.

Biased viewpoint. It sounds dumb to say, "Dimentio is arguably the coolest Mario villain ever." You know why? Because it sounds biased! Biased means it shows things too much from one's view of the matter. Things like that should be outright omitted.

Sound professional. Pretend you are no longer you. You are simply blending in with the writing style of the article. This sounds more professional, because it looks more like a professional, encyclopedia entry rather than something written by a fan. Contractions are sometimes allowed, but can't be abused, naturally.

Good spelling and grammar. This is a no-brainer. Obviously, if you are a terrible speller and your grammar is bad, maybe writing for Wiki's isn't your thing. This, however, is something you'll have to learn on your own time!

I always have this rule. Don't use question marks if it's not from a quote!

 * - bgcolor="#8CE6F9"
 * Super Smash Bros. Brawl || 100% || It's as if the creators were like, "Let's take everything that makes Nintendo great, and compile it into one big, addictive, fun platforming fighter"! This game will go down in history as one of the best.
 * Super Mario Sunshine || 94% || A fun three-dimensional platformer, with a more relaxed feel than most Mario games, something I liked that not a whole lot of people did!
 * Super Mario 64 || 95% || An awesome platformer that really defined 3-D gaming for the first time ever, it definitely deserves some respect! The worlds were bright, busy, and imaginitive.
 * Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars || 96% || Wow, possibly the best Mario game, in my opinion! This one's a classic--the first to use something outside of the "Mario saving Princess Peach" storyline. Plus, Geno and Mallow, guys!
