MarioWiki:Main Page talk archive 4

Pipe Plaza is now open! All article-related talk content is now on MarioWiki talk:Pipe Plaza.

Absence
From the months of December and January, but especially this week, Dec. 4-8, my contributions to this wiki will likely be limited. I am performing in a play and will most likely have little time to edit. I will try to get on as often as possible, but my activity will slow. Thanks, and keep this wiki in shape! 19:40, 4 December 2006 (EST)
 * How dare you let the "real world" have more importance to you than the internet! :P Just check in often and it's ok, we've established a "vibrant" status according to WikiIndex. 21:16, 4 December 2006 (EST)
 * Cool. So where is this WikiIndex? 21:19, 4 December 2006 (EST)
 * What play. I perform all the time

To tell you the truth...they haven't decided yet. =\
 * You may be out longer than You think.
 * Yeah, but he might not be out as soon as he thinks. If they haven't decided, they'll have to order scripts before they start and that'll take around a week, most likely. Wanderingshadow 09:30, 5 December 2006 (EST)

CLICKY CLICKY. Paper Jorge & Steve are registered there, so they can update our article total when necessary. 15:58, 5 December 2006 (EST)

WOAH! Like, the "Wiki Wiki"!

It's .org now. I changed the message and, yeah.

Well, see yah!

Little Message =D
This is Kelt, just been REALLY busy will school and trying to pass my weather class with an A; I'd like to make a very minor announcement. I see this on wikipedia AND the Mario Wiki, and I easily notice it: Some image descriptions have periods, some do not. I often went on countless little journeys to random articles to try and place a period at the end of every image description I could find that didn't have one, but there are so many more. From now on, can everyone just put a period at the end of image descriptions? Remember, they're sentences too. Thanks. --King Piranha Plant 21:53, 13 December 2006 (EST)
 * Hey Kelt, what ever happened to alliancing with MFGG? 22:06, 13 December 2006 (EST)
 * Ah-HA! THERE you are! You're back! Cool! I've been working on articles for SML2! 3D

Wario Wiki
I see this Wario Wiki move template... where is the Wario Wiki? At the last archive, I asked where it was some weeks ago. Does it work now? wario.mariowiki.com doesn't bring anything.
 * Whoah, I'm surprised you knew the old link...it changed during the server move. And I'm keeping it a secret until Steve gives the OK (he'll actually add it to the wiki alliance sidebar). 15:10, 21 December 2006 (EST)

I can't wait to write about the Wario Ware minigames :)

User of the month
Over on Wookieepedia, there is a "Wookieepedian of the month" award. (Read the top of this page to see how it's done) Does anybody think it would be a good idea to have something like that here? -- Yoshi  626  20:39, 9 January 2007 (EST)

No. I don't think it's a good idea. Paper Jorge
 * Why? -- Yoshi  626 [[Image:Egg.PNG|20px]] 22:19, 9 January 2007 (EST)


 * Many reasons...let's let someone else explain... Paper Jorge

Let's see...my primary concern would be that users would become jealous over who gets the award, and also, users would contribute great edits only to get the award, not add to the wiki. 22:28, 9 January 2007 (EST)
 * OK, then... -- Yoshi  626 [[Image:Egg.PNG|20px]] 23:13, 9 January 2007 (EST)

Nice proposal, but it would never work. Maybe when we have so many users that recognition is a problem, but for now no. Many ideas like this were canned before.

Gaddgets
We seriously need someone with Mario Party Advance to make pages for the Gaddgets, and add images, if possible. Magic Lamp also needs its own pages, separate from the other Magic Lamp.Waluigi Freak 99 14:59, 15 January 2007 (EST)

Signature Policy
I have seen other Wikis with guidelines as to what signatures can and can't have. Guidelines include things like no linking to the Log Out page, and restrictions on how big signatures can be. Think that would work here?Waluigi Freak 99 20:32, 15 January 2007 (EST)
 * We already have a limit in Help:Signature on size, and no one here links to the log out page... 21:52, 15 January 2007 (EST)
