 * 4) – Per all.

Oppose

 * 1) The trivia section is a little long. A few more gameplay pictures here and there won't hurt either.

 * 1) -- Multiple trivia have been either removed or implemented into the article; the remaining ones are worthy to be mentioned, but there is nowhere to put them in the main article.

I'd like to see at least one more image in the Gameplay section. If that section gets expanded, then a couple images would suit it as well. That's the only thing I see lacking from this article, and keeping me from supporting. Redstar 23:05, 7 December 2009 (EST)

The Luigi solo picture could use some help. And I think the screenshots of the characters don't look so great either. If these errors are fixed, then I'd gladly support.
 * Now that you mention it, yeah. The solo pictures could be much cleaner, and I'd prefer it if they were all facing the same direction, or at least a face-right, face-left, face-right, etc. pattern. Right now it's just random and that looks bad. Redstar 00:06, 8 December 2009 (EST)

Per LeftGreenMario's complaints, I integrated about half of the Trivia points into the main article, as well as re-writing the entire Gameplay section a bit. I also re-arranged the different sections to match the order used on other game articles. It's much better, but lack of images and replacements for poor ones already found here is still an issue. That's probably the only one, though. Redstar 02:16, 8 December 2009 (EST)

What do you mean by "cleaning" the solo pictures? Its official artwork, I can't do anything about that.
 * Not the official artwork, but the screenshots taken from the game shown under the Drivers section. Toad's is particularly bad, but the others can simply be mirrored to face the same direction. I'll do that now. Redstar 16:35, 8 December 2009 (EST)
 * Well... Those are in-game sprites so I don't know how the pictures could get any better in appearance. But Toad does look bad. 0_o
 * I cleaned up the official Donkey Kong artwork so it has a white background like all the others. It could probably be cleaner, but at its size you can't tell much either way... I also flipped all the solo screenshots in the Drivers section so they're all facing the same direction. It looks much better now, but the Toad solo really needs to be replaced.

 * What about the Luigi artwork? It looks like there's black outlines. Can you fix that up? I'm not lazy or anything, but Luigi's artwork could use help, you know.
 * Better? Redstar 21:42, 8 December 2009 (EST)
 * Yeah, it looks good now.

I think the only issue is that Toad screenshot. Everyone else is facing the same direction and look ok, but Toad's screenshot looks awful.

Ok I found | some good pictures of Mario Kart Racers. These aren't sprites of them driving, but they are good quality and all facing the same way. So how about that?


 * I already found better quality pictures on a sprite site. But that's from the character selection screen, isn't it? Can't we just use the gallery pictures for that? I mean, every other Mario Kart articles uses artwork to depict the characters.
 * I guess we can use the gallery for those. Do you have a good Toad sprite at least to finish the section?
 * I may be able to get a screenshot for toad facing the right direction. I'll work on it. --
 * Redstar: How does the Toad pic look now? I've uploaded a new one so it corresponds with the others. --

Garlic Man: Your proposal to remove LeftyGreenMario's vote is invalid, since he also referred to gameplay pictures and you didn't mention them.
