Editing
Hey I like that you're contributing but you are just constantly editing the same page you should really try to edit other pages too thanks and keep contributing. :) 06:13, 20 July 2016 (EDT)


 * He was editing on one page because he was trying to get the formatting for a link right; there was no need to tell him that.

Linking
Just FYI, to create a link, simply type the name of the page you're linking to inside four square brackets, like so: Dry Bones Or click on the chain icon in the tool bar above the textbox. Also, in case you want to check how your edits look before you click "Save page", please use the "Show preview" button. For more information on editing, click the links in the Welcome notice above. Thanks.

RE: Character infobox
When adding a character infobox, you must use the attributes listed here. So that means "real name" wouldn't work, because it doesn't exist, so "full_name" is used instead. Additionally, "first_appearance" needs to be all lowercase (as should every other attribute), and any spaces between attributes should be replaced with underscores (as I just did). Unfortunately, "Date of Birth" is also non-existent, so the only way you can add it is to create an entire new infobox from scratch. Any attributes you don't plan on using can be excluded. Now your code should be written like so:

Just a tip: You don't need to type in the full URL for images found on MarioWiki; just the image title (as above). Hope this helps!

Duplicate Image
Just wanted to let you know that the you uploaded already exists as. The one you uploaded may be put up for deletion at some point, possibly soon. I suggest using the already uploaded file so we don't have duplicates of the same file on the wiki. 10:50, 5 August 2016 (EDT)

Hey
Thanks for the tip actually, next time I'll inform myself about the files I upload before uploading.  Koopas lost shell http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/b/b2/GreenShellMK8.png/20px-GreenShellMK8.png 11:01, 5 August 2016 (EDT)
 * Cool. You swap out the file name and I'll mark the other one up for deletion. 11:06, 5 August 2016 (EDT)

Done  Koopas lost shell http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/b/b2/GreenShellMK8.png/20px-GreenShellMK8.png 11:13, 5 August 2016 (EDT)

Reminder
Because File:SHY GUY REVEALED by Foxeaf.gif had an unfilled template. Also it is. -- 15:50, 7 August 2016 (EDT)

Thanks for the warning  Koopas lost shell http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/b/b2/GreenShellMK8.png/20px-GreenShellMK8.png 15:56, 7 August 2016 (EDT)

You did it again to File:3DS MarioPartySR E32016 SCRN 10.jpg. -- 15:29, 17 August 2016 (EDT)

Sorry, that wasn't on purpose, I pressed the button without knowing it! Koopas lost shell http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/b/b2/GreenShellMK8.png/20px-GreenShellMK8.png 09:42, 18 August 2016 (EDT) But I guess the warning will make it stop happening.

OK. One more thing (no warning for this). Categorize the images you upload, if possible. Game images for sure have an image category. Category:Mario Party: Star Rush Images for File:MpsrA.png for example. Insert. To find the category with the exact name, use the search text box and type in Category: and then the name of the game. -- 14:45, 21 August 2016 (EDT)

Swearing
I haven't been on the wiki too long, but I'm pretty sure you aren't allowed to have the d-word on your userpage. This is supposed to be a family-friendly wiki, so could you please change it? --Sigma (talk) 14:40, 8 August 2016 (EDT)
 * Actually there is no rule against swearing as long as it's not directed at someone but you shouldn't do it too often. 19:34, 23 August 2016 (EDT)

Italics
Hey there. When editing articles, remember that game titles should be in italics. You can do this by placing two apostrophes before and after a game title.

For example,  New Super Mario Bros. Wii 

Thanks, 11:25, 12 August 2016 (EDT)


 * Please recall what YoshiKong has said here. 19:32, 23 August 2016 (EDT)

Grammar
Hi, just a reminder to please always remember to capitalise proper nouns next time (e.g. "Boos" and "SecuriMeows", not "boos" and "securimeows"). Also, keep in mind that the pronoun is spelled "which", not "witch". Thanks. 05:30, 15 August 2016 (EDT)

Oh, sorry, I'm lebanese, so I'm not an expert at grammar but anyway, I guess I'll make use of what you just said. Thanks then.  Koopas lost shell http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/b/b2/GreenShellMK8.png/20px-GreenShellMK8.png 05:59, 15 August 2016 (EDT)


 * You're welcome. Also, "Wiggler" is a proper noun as well. Any words that are names, like "Mario" or "Luigi", are proper nouns, and should always have their first letter in capitals. 06:38, 15 August 2016 (EDT)

Google Images
File:PMMamarChapterClear.jpeg - Google Images is a rather terrible source to get screenshots (or any image for that matter) to satisfy articles needing a certain image. Rarely is it ever useful. Also Google Images isn't the source you should be crediting because that source can changes its search results. The best way to obtain screenshots is to follow my WIP guide. -- 15:15, 25 August 2016 (EDT)
