Uploading images
If you want to upload the images yourself, you can go to Special:Upload. Just upload the file directly from your computer! 19:15, 14 September 2018 (EDT) I tried doing that, but I still don't understand how to put in the Floating Bandinero artwork, when a screenshot image of it already exists on its page. --Hamshamcart (talk) 19:33, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Clicking the source filename "Browse" button will allow you to upload a file directly from your computer. Just choose the image you want, fill out the necessary parameters in he aboutfile template (or remove it entirely), categorize the image correctly (in this case, replace the uncategorized template with ), choose the character-artwork license, and the upload it!
 * To actually place the image on the page, use FILENAME.png . Or just the FILENAME.png if in a gallery.
 * Lot of stuff there, so let me know if you have any questions :P 19:38, 14 September 2018 (EDT)

I tried doing it, but I'm still stuck. How can it be done properly, when it keeps showing the same results? --Hamshamcart (talk) 21:03, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
 * What are you seeing? You should be able to upload images. 21:25, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
 * I think only autoconfirmed users can upload images. Just checked and he has to wait for at least three or four more days. – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 21:40, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Apparently not. Porple and the Special:ListGroupRights say otherwise. You have to be autoconfirmed to upload through URL. 21:44, 14 September 2018 (EDT)

For future reference, to make a page the image is linked to appear in the file's File usage section, the image has to actually be placed on the page and the link to the page will appear in the File usage section automatically. 19:06, 20 September 2018 (EDT) Okay, thank you. I just needed some motivation to be better. --Hamshamcart (talk) 19:08, 20 September 2018 (EDT)

Additionally:

I'll understand if you upload and then fix the parameters on your computer. Editing from console is a pain :P 15:33, 6 October 2018 (EDT) Yes, it is. But I'm wondering if you or anyone else can rip these Bowser Minions for high quality collecting? Just throwing it out there ;)--Hamshamcart (talk) 15:43, 6 October 2018 (EDT)
 * I don't have a Switch, but uploading directly from the Switch is about as high-quality as you're going to get at the moment I think. Unless you mean the sprites? 15:47, 6 October 2018 (EDT)

Renames
Rather than changing the name in the infobox, you have to actually move the page to the new name, change the links to the page, and site a source for the new name. 16:42, 23 October 2018 (EDT)
 * Additionally, we're still going over the material, so the renames should be held off on for the moment. 16:43, 23 October 2018 (EDT)

Spike Top
The Spike Top image you are placing on the Spike Top page doesn't exactly have a place to go, so it's better left in the gallery. Additionally, goes on image pages themselves, not actual articles. 12:26, 26 October 2018 (EDT) That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Thank you, Alex. Just let me know when this Bowser Minion's artwork is improved.--Hamshamcart (talk) 12:36, 26 October 2018 (EDT)

Italics
Hey, just letting you know that italics are formatted with two apostrophes (e.g. ). Quotation marks won't work. 05:33, 27 October 2018 (EDT)

SMBE names
Read this proposal. It was decided via community consensus to not use names from the English Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia as official subject names on the wiki, so please stop changing the names back. 08:30, 31 October 2018 (EDT)


 * Unfourtanely they should, because they're the future of fun and this wiki still needs to find more models of the 3 Snowmad minions, and a lot of Bowser minions like Stilt Guys, Solo Toadies, Mega Grrolls, the Toady's upgraded design, all the other colors of Burrbo, and lots more stuff to do like upgrading the Spike Top artwork. So leave the Mega Grrroll, Bull's-Eye Banzai, and other subjects alone, Bowser hater.--Hamshamcart (talk) 16:23, 31 October 2018 (EDT)


 * You're not understanding the situation. This nothing to do with personal dislike towards a character. This was a rule decided by the community. If you have a problem with the proposal and think the names should be used, create a counterproposal once four weeks have passed. However, continue to make changes against a passed proposal and you will receive a warning. 19:37, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

It's actually just due to those minions that had good name changes, which u guys don't like. The ones me and my men agree on are Piranha Pod, Bull's-Eye Banzai, Mega Grrroll, Fire Jumping Piranha, and a bunch of others like Launch Pad. It's the Good Future for video game villain kind, so you have to get with the times. And by the time Mario and Luigi Paper Jam 2 rolls around (Possibly), through a great article from NE (https://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-says-it-will-keep-3ds-business-going-preparing-new-titles/) after Fawful's final death in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, the VA will have more minions in its ranks and everyone will call us heroes of the Koopa Troops (Both Regular and Paper Mario).--Hamshamcart (talk) 20:28, 31 October 2018 (EDT)
 * You really don't seem to understand what's being said. These are not "good name changes," they're completely made-up and fandom based, and to use them would be citing ourselves, which would be bad. Also, you're using a whole lot of bizarre phraseology there that makes absolutely no sense with each other, and half the time seem to be speaking in an in-universe standpoint, which helps no one. It's a community decision to not use these names, as they are fake, and the English ESMB was lazily-written and fandom plagiarism-heavy. Using these names is, to put it bluntly, against the rules now. Courtesy of community decision. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:33, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

Well, I like these names. Bull's-Eye Banzai is more awesome than King Bill, because there is only one, and that's the Bowser Minion that reappears in the New Super Mario Bros U games and Puzzles and Dragons Z Mario Edition. It is not plagiarism because the current names this wiki were boring and need good updating. And the in-universe standpoint is meant to inspire a cry for Mario & Luigi Paper Jam 2. Hope you like the image, Doc. ;)


 * When you disagree with other users' stances on an issue, don't be stubborn about it, as how you were acting in the above banter, and especially towards an administrator. You're still not understanding anyways. The fact that you like names such as "Bull's-Eye Banzai" or "Mega Grrrol" is purely subjective and has nothing to do with the community consensus that was agreed upon (with a super-majority too), and the fact that the plagiarism of this wiki by Zack Davisson went as far as to garner coverage from Nintendo Life also proves why. Like Mario jc said above, wait four weeks to launch a counterproposal instead of making changes directly in violation of a passed proposal, otherwise you will receive a warning. Thank you.


 * Also, I tagged the image you uploaded with since it's unofficial and should not belong in mainspace. Just thought I'd let you know.  21:42, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

Don't do this
This is not going to fly. Given your image above is there, I can only assume that that's your own Twitter account, and you are not "an organization," and due to not being affiliated with Nintendo, it's not "serious talk." Also, the article linked mentions neither Paper Jam nor Project X Zone in any capacity, as my handy crtl+f tells me. I'm honestly considering giving you a for this. I'll refrain for now, but seriously, don't do it again, it's unacceptable. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:08, 3 November 2018 (EDT)

(This adds on to Doc von Schmeltwick's commentary above.)

Since you seem to have a problematic history of fanon on the wiki, I decided to just go ahead and give you this warning. Your piece of trivia you added to the Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam page here was purely fancruft, but saying it was "serious" in your edit summary is borderline unacceptable. In fact, your obsession with fanon on the wiki should not go as far as to insisting that you should add said fanon to mainspace articles just because you "feel like it". Continue this and you may face a small temporary block. 23:10, 3 November 2018 (EDT)
