OGG Files
I noticed two things about OGG files: Should the below be deleted to force them out of Special:UnusedFiles or can they be used somewhere? Normally, if it were an unused image, I would find a way to repurpose it, find the image that replaced it so that way can be used, or tag as  to generate discussion on iffy deletion. Since these are audio and video files going unused, I am very hesitant these should be used in MarioWiki articles. Copyright is a tricky subject. The safest move here is to just delete these, unless there is a plan with these files beyond my knowledge. -- 16:54, 25 May 2016 (EDT)
 * Seldom use here
 * Potential copyright infringement, even moreso than image uploads, such as screenshots, sprite rips, etc.
 * I don't know much about where they are being linked so use on the ones you know for sure are URL-linked. -- 17:52, 25 May 2016 (EDT)
 * I am just going to revive this discussion because I think either a recent software update to MarioWiki occurred that corrected a bug or a template update fixed this issue with most truly used files. The list has been updated. -- 22:19, 13 July 2016 (EDT)

Questionable IP
Could you check this IP, I'm pretty sure its ban evading. (The IP did the same edits the said user did last year and excessively removed valid information). 68.197.157.80. 22:02, 25 May 2016 (EDT)

really quick maintenance.
Can Proposals/Archive 44 be protected as the current one is now Proposals/Archive 45?

Also if it's not too much of a hassle, can you please edit Proposals/Archive Header to add the new archive? Thanks-- 21:01, 30 May 2016 (EDT)

Redirect breaker
This guy keeps breaking the Final 5 Frenzy redirect, adding in unnecessary info ultimately ruining the redirect. 21:53, 10 June 2016 (EDT)

Rare (?) Mario Illustration book
Probably from the GameBoy era, I found photos of this book on twitter (Click here) It looks to be a full illustration book Nintendo released, here some pics: Back of characters some friends of Mario Bros

Interesting, right?

Inappropriate Username
Mario fans sh*t themselves: could you please block him? 17:35, 19 June 2016 (EDT)

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Hi. Can I ask why you re-added the Chinese name I removed? That name was unofficial and Glowsquid said that unofficial names should not merit an entry in the foreign language box. 20:42, 20 June 2016 (EDT)

Image ripping
I managed to find a website that shows pictures of all barrel types in Donkey Kong Barrel Blast's instruction manual here as well as a Zinger and a Necky, but I don't know how to rip them as they are saved as pdf's. I tried to edit them in Paint, but I couldn't do it. Do I need PhotoShop or some other hardware to rip them or do you think you can do it? 06:07, 2 July 2016 (EDT)

About my Gloam Valley redirect
Hello I made the redirect to the Flip-Flop Folk page but I did it because the three other town people have redirects. Also I saw it was deleted for having an unofficial name. But Flip-Flop Folk is also unofficial too so yeah sorry for any confusion. 16:51, 4 July 2016 (EDT)

Vandal
seems to be a vandal sock. 14:48, 7 July 2016 (EDT)

about the Vivian screenshots
Hi. I saw that you are requesting a better version of File:PMTTYD beldam plug ugly.png on Wildgoose's talk page. If it is not possible/feasible to take one from screenshot, it is possible to obtain one from the official encodes (that is, movie files generated by emulators) on tasvideos.org. They have a TAS for the English version of PMTTYD and one for Japanese, so a lot of emulator-quality screenshots can be taken from these encodes, if you don't want to play the game again. 00:44, 8 July 2016 (EDT)

User Page
Delete 's user page? Seems spam-like as well. -- 02:17, 15 July 2016 (EDT)

Re:DKBB FA
I've been meaning to write up a decently long reply and adjust my vote accordingly, but a lot of IRL stuff popped up recently and it distracted me from saying something. Right now is a really awkward time, so it'll take me a little longer to get back to them. 01:39, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

List of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS glitches
Could you protect the page? It looks like it was missed protection and anons have been making unconstructive edits to it. 15:23, 28 July 2016 (EDT)

updating picture
Hi. I uploaded a PNG version of File:PM2 Prologue.jpg as File:PMTTYD prologue screenshot.png. However, the former picture is still used on a user talk page for useful purpose. Can it still be tagged with or does the user need to be notified first? Thanks. --  11:45, 31 July 2016 (EDT)
 * Can you take care of this too? File:FUZZY!!!.jpg -> File:PMTTYD Fuzzy Horde screenshot.png. This has something to do with the 'Shroom which I can't edit.  08:16, 1 August 2016 (EDT)

DKBB help
Hi, can you upload images of the two Launcher Barrel variants? One of them is yellow, and the other is the one on the Mt. Dynamite racetrack with the DK logo on it that appears at the top of the downhill path near the finish line. Also, does the giant squid on Salty Sea count as an enemy? 18:06, 2 August 2016 (EDT)

SMRPG official artwork
I saw that you uploaded all of Peach's and most of Bowser's armor, so could you please upload the rest, or at least let us know where you got the ones you did? Thanks in advance. --Kahran042 (talk) 16:28, 7 August 2016 (EDT)

Image sourcing
First of all, props for those Wario World screenshots; since I'm not capable of uploading anything but Youtube screenshots for Gamecube games, your high quality versions are definitely appreciated. However, you keep forgetting to fix the source. Obviously your screenshots are not from Youtube videos, so that leaving that as the source is odd. 20:42, 19 August 2016 (EDT)

Glitz Pit fighter pages
Hi. I saw you just edited The Fuzz now. The stats are a bit outdated and are better presented with es, but I'm not sure if it's ok to copy the stats on the individual enemy pages onto the fighter team pages; that could run afoul of ONCE. Thanks. 22:07, 19 August 2016 (EDT)

Spotlight image
Thanks for replacing that image, and so quickly too. We'll definitely give you a special thank you in the next edition.

19:27, 20 August 2016 (EDT)

"Box arts"
Uh... - Reboot (talk) 02:10, 23 August 2016 (EDT)
 * 1) It's just "boxart". Even in the plural.
 * 2) Per Galleries, logos should be split out to a separate section at the start if you're messing around with those.

LMDM Team-Up
Remember how you asked me to get ScareScraper boss ghosts uploaded (only had a few but couldn't supply the rest)? One question, your uploads during that period, were they your own derived screenshots from your 3DS? If so, that's good news. That means you can help me with something. I noticed Gallery:Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is hideously organized. I think it needs a revamp. I didn't realize until several edits in. What do you think? Also, if you know of anyone else that owns a copy of this game, it will be of great help getting that section better organized. -- 21:22, 29 August 2016 (EDT)
 * Oh, I thought you did own a 3DS because of your submissions to complete those articles. Did you get those images from Miiverse then? -- 22:59, 29 August 2016 (EDT)

Full interiors view of Excitement Central, Spooktastic World and Thrillsville
Hi. This is BeautifulBowletta. I have upload the full picture inside view of Sparkle Land from Wario World. Do you have any full interior pictures view of Excitement Central, Spooktastic World and Thrillsville? - BeautifulBowletta (talk) 03:38, 30 August 2016 (EDT)

DKBB
My position hasn't changed much: the article still has tense issues and the images still have aliasing issues. I'm not a fan of the table colours, either: they don't do a particularly good job of masking the aliasing, and the darker colour of the headers make it hard to read the black text. 19:27, 1 September 2016 (EDT)

Blue Bowser art
Hello Lindsay. I was wondering if you could tell me where this image came from:



I understand if you don't remember: you uploaded it a long time ago! Thanks.

08:13, 11 September 2016 (EDT)

Page number requests
Hi Lindsay. I see you've added page number references to Super Mario 3D World articles before. May you please do Switch Block and Chain Link as well?

Thanks,

05:31, 14 September 2016 (EDT)

Block User
Should we just block ? I don't think this user is interested in contributing but rather either spamming or editing his user page. -- 00:28, 2 October 2016 (EDT)

Sorry
This is SmithJrBlaquaLuigi, Sorry about that. I just don't know why the article has to be deleted. Also I'm a noob using somewhat article.

I understood for the warning.

Interview
Hi I saw your interview with Kenny James (my fav. voice actor) one question, how do I do an interview like that. I want to do it with Caety Sagoian because her article has a lot less information than Kenny James's before it was expanded so could you please tell me thanks. :) 03:15, 6 October 2016 (EDT)

I'm sorry
For that spampost *

Unofficial transparent images
Would it be alright if I give an image(s) a transparent background myself or no? I'm not sure what the standing is on unofficial transparency. Thinking about uploading some images from Super Mario 3D World, but they would have a cropped background to them, unless I get rid of it myself. 20:33, 15 October 2016 (EDT)
 * Something like this image, but for every playable character. I just simply want to remove the background, but if it doesn't turn out as well as I would like, I decide against uploading it. 20:38, 15 October 2016 (EDT)
 * ...Alright. 20:41, 15 October 2016 (EDT)

How about at least a cropped image of the Boomerang Suits? Only Mario has an artwork and Rosalina's is kinda... far off. 20:51, 15 October 2016 (EDT)

Press assets
Hi Do you have an archive of press assets or any access to current press asset sources? Thanks --Hiccup (talk) 13:35, 18 October 2016 (EDT)

Where did you get this image from?
http://www.mariowiki.com/File:FooNSMBU.png --Hiccup (talk) 14:01, 25 October 2016 (EDT)

Paint Star Images?
Where did you find these pictures and can you get the green, orange, and purple ones?-- 20:33, 25 October 2016 (EDT)

Yes, there are the seckndary colors. --Brynda1231 (talk) 20:07, 3 November 2016 (EDT)

Prima source?
Hi Lindsay. I was just wondering if you confirm for me whether or not this image came from the Prima game guide? If so, I would like to refer to the file for an image guideline I was drafting.

Thanks so much.

17:18, 26 October 2016 (EDT)
 * I would also like to point out that the image is mirrored. Everything on the right should be on the left and vice versa. 17:26, 26 October 2016 (EDT)

Prism Island Map
Since the sprites for the world map are online in full hd quality, if I were to recreate the map by putting the pieces back together, would that be acceptable for upload here? I know we just found a good map on the Japanese site, but this would be the highest quality.-- 23:17, 28 October 2016 (EDT)

DidYouKnow
Hi Lindsay, next week could I please have a go at editing the DidYouKnow Template? I know you always do it and I just wanted to ask because I didn't want to be mean because I know you like editing it. :) 04:52, 30 October 2016 (EDT)

About the block you gave me
It seems like as if you blocked me 2 weeks ago, it ended at the time I'm writing this, so just want you to know, to avoid a block again, I will never EVER post pictures to the wiki, just so you know. --Drybones345 (talk) 08:29, 1 November 2016 (EDT)

Deletion Reason
I have been meaning to ask this for a while now but why don't you link to the replacement file on the file page you delete? Other sysops do this, such as YoshiKong or Ghost Jam. -- 18:00, 1 November 2016 (EDT)
 * I think it would be courteous to link to them, especially if they are linked on a user page that only sysops and the owner of the page can edit. I wish I could edit the pages only for the purpose of changing to the replacement image because my replacements are most likely near-identical because I try to match as close as possible to the original upload. It's just a pet peeve of mine seeing Special:WantedFiles useless now. -- 15:14, 2 November 2016 (EDT)

Deleted File
A file I uploaded File:Stingby SM3DL.png was deleted by you. May I ask why? I mean it wasn't fan art it was an official artwork found in the Prima guide so then why was it deleted? 13:11, 14 November 2016 (EST)
 * Okay I checked it's not in the guide itself, it's on the back cover however behind a Toad. 13:28, 19 November 2016 (EST)

Well
I'm so sorry, now i stop this --Captain Yoshi 04:59, 28 November 2016 (EST)

Hi, what is the code colors for your sig ? --Captain Yoshi 11:56, 2 December 2016 (EST)

Deleting Bestiary Leftovers
Due to a recent proposal that passed, bestiaries and infoboxes became more streamlined, resulting in a few GIFs going into Special:UnusedFiles. You deleted the unused ones that MediaWiki detected. That's fine, but there are more that were missed because they are being used on userpages. User:Wildgoosespeeder/DeleteThese - Just go through these and delete the ones that match the PNG static frame. I think this is more efficient compared to tagging each item individually. -- 16:50, 8 December 2016 (EST)
 * Is it ok to use the gifs for the enemy articles and static images for the bestiary? It's technically possible, but I forgot to do it for Superstar Saga and the gifs seem now deleted :( -- 23:13, 8 December 2016 (EST)
 * I'm not a big fan of having that. Keep it simple and more manageable. Some animations take away from the article, such as Cackletta and LaughCackletta.gif, and that wasn't being used anywhere in main articles or galleries. The animations that were deleted, those were just idle animations. A static idle frame is used for bestiaries. -- 14:59, 9 December 2016 (EST)
 * That doesn't mean they should've been deleted.-- 15:17, 9 December 2016 (EST)
 * File:Sm64ds luigi scuttle.png was replaced by the GIF I linked to. The GIF demonstrated better Luigi's jump attribute. Those kinds of GIFs shouldn't be deleted. What should be deleted are animations that contribute very little compared to the static PNG, like File:Bowletta.gif for [[File:Bowletta.png]]. -- 18:59, 9 December 2016 (EST)
 * Guys, if you going to continue this discussion, please move to your respective talk pages.

OK, back to the original matter. Anyways, I have a round two setup for User:Wildgoosespeeder/DeleteThese for MLPiT. -- 23:24, 10 December 2016 (EST)
 * Now this isn't the case anymore. Proposals - Proposal active. -- 02:17, 11 December 2016 (EST)

Well, it looks like things need to get restored because a proposal was in favor of restoring deletions. User:Wildgoosespeeder/DeleteThese are for easy restorations but check your your delete log to get remaining. Just be careful about restoring things that were duplicates or static frame GIFs because those should remain deleted. -- 18:43, 20 December 2016 (EST)
 * Alright, I see that MLPiT GIFs are restored but MLSS still hasn't seen restoration. I don't think I linked to all the GIFs for MLSS when I started that page but I started to with MLPiT. I would check your deletions newer than December 1st to be absolutely sure we get the affected GIFs restored. -- 16:47, 21 December 2016 (EST)
 * OK, few remain. I made it easier for you by editing the page to link to the images still in need of restoration. Then can resume his project. -- 19:23, 22 December 2016 (EST)
 * Thank you. I think that will be all. -- 22:59, 24 December 2016 (EST)

Re: Unused file
Helo! Just added that image to a gallery! You don't need to delete the file. Thanks 10:51, 9 December 2016 (EST)
 * Actually I have seen that image in Special:UnusedFiles for some time now and was never really sure if it was an officially licensed Nintendo product. Also, I remember seeing other variations for Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi, but not uploaded to the Wiki. That's why I was hesitant to link it. If it can be confirmed to be a licensed Nintendo product along with any of the said characters being confirmed to also have a themed controller (or characters I didn't mention and didn't know about), keep it linked and upload remaining. -- 20:49, 12 December 2016 (EST)

Unused Files Purge
I see that you went on a purge in Special:UnusedFiles. There are some deletions I don't agree with:


 * File:Stonetoad.jpg
 * File:MKAGPDX Fire Mario Card.jpg
 * File:Scoop1-1.jpeg (I think)
 * File:SuperMarioGameEHon2.jpg
 * File:MK8 Card Game.jpg
 * File:Year of Lugi magazine book page.jpg
 * File:Blooper MP10 JP Website.jpg
 * File:Alternate screen.png (I think)
 * File:Super Mario Calendar Ladies.jpg
 * File:MineCartRuinsPart2.jpg
 * File:MKAGPDX Stun Stick.png
 * File:MKAGPDX Flower Glasses.png

Unless there was a duplicate I missed, these files should be restored. -- 16:31, 9 December 2016 (EST)
 * OK, just edited Electrodrome and File:Alternate screen.png needs to be restored for sure. -- 05:15, 1 January 2017 (EST)
 * Thanks for that specific restore. Still looking to restore the remaining images. -- 15:00, 1 January 2017 (EST)

FA Archives
Hi L151. I apologize if I come at you in a moment where you are busy, but can you please move the following archives in this category without leaving a redirect?

... ...
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/A1/Baby Mario
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/A1/Deanna Mustard
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/A1/Gus
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/Archive/N1/Assist Trophy
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/Archive/N1/Baby Daisy
 * MarioWiki:Featured articles/Archive/N1/Baby Luigi

There's a lot of these, and you have to move each of these to this naming scheme:

Example: MarioWiki:Featured articles/N1/Yoshi (series)

You have to remove the /Archive/ bracket and change the /A/ to /N1/ or whatever number in these nominations

I'm trying to work on creating an archive page for past featured nominations and those inconsistent, current article names get in the way of my work. I would have moved them myself except they are protect so only staff members can move this. I've requested this on the forums, but I haven't gotten any replies back, so I'm wondering if you'd be up for the task? 17:05, 6 January 2017 (EST)
