Mario Kart DS
This game article has characters, courses and karts, but that's all. Battle Mode? VS? Mission? Wi-Fi? As a sub-goal, let's expand on this page. Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 01:38, 20 August 2006 (EDT)

Tacky
Can you seperate the race courses template by game, so that the tracks pages will only show what games it was from? - Yoshi Mastar
 * Do you mean that the the template would only show courses in just one game? That would require exactly six templates instead of one. Why would we want that? Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 05:32, 17 August 2006 (EDT)

Cause a huge template taking up half the size of the screen looks bad. Is it hard to break it up for each game? - Yoshi Mastar
 * Looks bad?? You can go inbetween each race course with that template, and the colors look quite nice. Wikipedia's Mario series templates are just as big. I've been trying to figure out how to add a hide/show feature, but I haven't yet. I would like to know if anyone else thinks that the template's size is annoying.

Merging Repeat Courses
Especially in Super Mario Kart, there are many courses with the same name but climbing numbers. To avoid boring stubs, I suggest merging Mario Circuits and other repeat names, making one good article instead of several stubs. Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 14:48, 16 August 2006 (EDT)

Battle Course Stubs
Going through the created battle courses to add them to Category: Battle Courses, quite a few of them were stubs. Can I get some help adding a few more sentences, at least? Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 00:04, 16 August 2006 (EDT)

Bowser's Castle
Alright, we have an issue on Bowser Castle and Bowser's Castle.

I know for sure that in MKDS it is Bowser's Castle. If any of the courses or sets of courses in a game is Bowser Castle (no 's), please let us know here so we can name it properly, otherwise all Bowser's Castle courses will go under the name with the 's. Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 23:43, 15 August 2006 (EDT)
 * My copy of MKDS says Bowser Castle, no 'S. Both tracks. Wikipedia says it's Bowser Castle too, on the respective game pages. S  a  l  t  y T a  l  k  ! 23:50, 15 August 2006 (EDT)
 * In that case, I haven't played the game in awhile, so I'm forgetting (I thought I knew!). I still suggest merging all Bowser Castles into one article, noting that some games it's Bowser's Castle and others Bowser Castle. Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 00:02, 16 August 2006 (EDT)
 * However, my copy of MK:DD!! says Bowser's Castle, with the 'S. =/ <font color="#C0D9FF">Monty Mole  12:32, 20 August 2006 (EDT)


 * My Mario Kart DS says Bowser Castle, while Mario Kart Arcade GP and GP 2 says Bowser 's  Castle

New Courses
I'm definitely willing to help out on this, but I only have Double Dash!! Just wanted to let you know. <font color="#C0D9FF">Monty Mole
 * In that case, your assignment is to help create articles for courses in Double Dash!! ;) Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 12:05, 15 August 2006 (EDT)

Mario Kart Super Circuit
From Salty on Mariowiki talk:PipeProject:
 * It turns out we did have a page for Mario Kart Super Circuit, the title not having the colon. It is correct that way, so that cancels out a large part of this project.

Indeed, now the 3rd goal will be to perfect the game pages. Thanks for the tip, Salty! Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 13:02, 15 August 2006 (EDT)

I'm in, too!
I'll readily join, as I have played excessivly Super Circuit, Double Dash!! and DS. I'm also going to order Super Mario Kart in a month or so, so once I've bought and played it, I'll help with those. I still have a few more projects to work on, but once I've finished, you can count on me to help out! (as much as I possibly can! ;) 3DeJong

Dry Bones wants to join
Come on can I join! I make a guide for Mario Kart.


 * Go ahead!

I'm in!!! (And I played Arcade GP!!!)
Please look at the subject (And I also edited the page already)-- User:Mario1997 03:57, 21 January 2007 (EST)

Found Clips of Mario Kart Arcade GP
For members who want to work on this arcade game, I found some clips of them to enjoy; and maybe you can see items and coruses.

Mario Kart

Have fun!!

Joining!!!
Hi! I've just joined, I own all Mario Kart series, except the Arcade, :( Please, tell me in which can I help more :) --Atsech 20:35, 7 February 2007 (EST)

I'm joining as well....I will try to help and I'm doing a separate goal of adding the music of the courses..... already done Airship Fortress.

Organization of Cups
I think that the courses in the 8 cups should be put into tables for better organization, instead of being a list separated by commas. Does anyone agree/dissagree? 14:49, 28 April 2008 (EDT)

I'll be helping out too / Proposal
Hey just wanted to pop in and say I've been fixing up some pages. (Bowser Castle and Luigi Circuit) Please let me know if I'm messing up a certain layout or whatnot, otherwise I'll continue to do what I've been doing.

-

Oh and I've played the arcade ones, if we need facts of those.

Anyone think we should spread out tracks like Luigi's Circuit into individual tracks? The pages are getting crowded with images if the tracks are common.

Shortcuts
I've been working on the shortcuts for courses, so don't worry about those. I've already gotten a few, so contact me if you think they need improving, or if there's a course I missed that needs a Shortcut section. Hope this helps,

WiiBoy7 wants to help
I love this series and for my first contribution, I thought I could maybe help out a little bit. I know a lot about the DS, GCN, Wii, GBA and SNES versions.

User:WiiBoy7

Some fresh ideas
I recently hooked up my N64, GCN, Wii, ect. to my computer so I can now take direct shots of the game without stealing them from a website. I was thinking first off of maybe having a page dedicated to differences between two versions of maps if they've been remade in newer games. One example of this would be Bowser's Castle (N64 & Wii), which I would post a screen of both versions side by side and discuss variations of the course. Such as the bridge after the courtyard changing.

The other idea I had was, and I know this was kind of decided against, but making repeat courses have their own respective pages. I think that now more and more graphics are being added to pages with icons and screens of the maps and track layouts, I think it'd look better on it's own page. I don't see what having one page would save, other then decreasing a little bit of work.

Lemme know what you guys think. I'd be up for writing these pages, if no one else is.

-MG


 * Hmmm. I like the sound of that.  Maybe you can use that technique to help me with project: describing the palette-swaps on the vehicles.  I've been looking at the following videos to observe what the color variations of each vehicle looks like.  However, some vehicles tend to get shown at bad angles (such as the Flame Runner) and neither have the color variants for the large Mii's or the small female Mii.-- 14:23, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

What about MKAGP2?
- Can I get Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 info?
