Names in Other Languages
Hello, I noticed you edited many Names in Other Languages sections, particularly Romanian and Dutch names. You have removed some of them, so I'd like to ask if you are sure these names are irrelevant. -Sudowoodo (talk) 08:10, 19 August 2014 (EDT)

Multiple edits
You aren't supposed to do so much edits in a row like you did in Hazy Maze Cave. From now on if you have to edit multiple sections click the edit button at the top and edit them all at once, thanks.

Re:Walkazo
Pantaro first posted it here, when I thought it was actually Walkazo posting the edit summary and that. I was taking a break from working with my mods when I first saw it, and I couldn't believe my eyes nor what my mind comprehended when I clicked to see that edit. I really thought Pantaro was a troll or something, but how could trolls access bureaucrat's accounts, as it was posted under Walkazo's name? So I brought it up in Wiki chat and they pretty much confirmed that it was genuine and that Pantaro is her brother. No, I'm not related to Walkazo but yes, her death made me realize how much I really loved and cared about her... 15:31, 30 March 2016 (EDT)

I don't mean to be rude but I had a childhood friend who died the exact same way as walkazo and I really don't want to be reminded of her every time I look at the main page, especially since she was also a big mario fan, so if someone could do something about it that would be nice. I have a type of personality disorder which causes me to have emotional stress triggered much more easily than most other people
 * Uh, sorry, that's not going to change. The only thing I can say right now is to avoid the main page until we finish grieving for Walkazo. 16:17, 1 April 2016 (EDT)

Re: Username
You'll have to ask or just post a request on this page. Probably better to go with the second one. - Turboo (talk) 18:52, 26 April 2016 (EDT)

Americas and Oceania
When they said you could change Australia to Oceania but keep North America as-is, they meant to keep North America as-is and not change it to "the Americas." So go ahead and change every release date mention of Australia, but leave America alone, please. 04:01, 15 July 2017 (CT)
 * Ugh, sorry for hurting America! It won't happen again! Gold Luigi (talk) 05:03, 15 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Thank you. Now it probably will occur that that part will eventually go through, but for now, keep the Americas as-is. Keep up the good work. 04:07, 15 July 2017 (CT)

Changing names
Keep in mind that whenever you change the name of a mainspace article, an image, or anything else, you're also responsible for fixing all of the links so that they use the current name rather than the foreign name. For example, everything that links to File:Flag of Europe.png should be changed so that they link to File:Flag of European Union.png. Linking to redirects instead of the direct source is discouraged by policy. 17:32, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * Oh my god... this is gonna take forever. Rip me. Can I start tomorrow? Gold Luigi (talk) 17:42, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * Start whenever you're ready, just make sure you get it done. This also goes for File:Flag of HK.png and File:Flag of ROC.png. 17:49, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * *sigh* Is there any way to change them all with just one edit? Gold Luigi (talk) 18:04, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * might get a bot to make all those edits for you if you explain this to him. 18:26, 6 August 2017 (EDT)

I was going to give you a spiel about rolling up your sleeves and getting to work, but now that I've looked into it, the issue is a bit more complicated than that. The flags are appearing on pages through the use of Template:Released, and they are called using the names of the files. For example, would cause the Japanese flag to appear, as the name of the original image is File:Flag of Japan.png. Since these names are going to be referenced often, they're named in such a way that they're convenient to reference, which is why it's Flag of USA.png and not "Flag of the United States of America.png". With that in mind, it may be best to keep the flags with their original names. Yes, the flag that we're using for "Europe" is really for the European Union, but we've still called it "Europe" because it's more convenient for editors, and those are the people who are going to be using it the most. If you had to type "Hong Kong" on dozens of pages, as you dreaded doing, you'd also prefer having a more convenient alternative, which is why the name of the file is "Flag of HK.png". Your heart's in the right place, but I'd say we should leave things as they were. 18:31, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * Yeah, that's what I'm also thinking, but I'm still not sure if they should stay with their original name. I'll let you know if I change my mind. Until then, DO NOT use the new names. Gold Luigi (talk) 18:34, 6 August 2017 (EDT)
 * After some thinking, I actually decided to change the current names back to their original names. Should I do it, or will you do it for me? And just to let you know, I did those changes on the main page for MK7, so I'm not sure if this changes anything, but if it does, go do the changes there if you want.

 * Actually never mind, I changed them. Gold Luigi (talk) 03:38, 7 August 2017 (EDT)
