Yes, the link's still red. Suddenly school has become very busy for me, and all the free time I have I am taking care of immediate issues here on the wiki (though none of this has to do with my promotion – things are still the same around here, folks). Fortunately, it's time for a WWD – '''W'''ayoshi '''W'''eeken'''d''', a wonderful time when I'm on a ton in a time span of ~56 hours. This page will be up tomorrow with all the details you'll ever need (hint: try to get yourself available on Friday nights!).

== Un- or Fan- MarioWiki ==
Suddenly this idea has been revived from the dead and gaining interest rapidly. Here's the idea: Uncyclopedia, but for Mario. However, instead of tons of dumb jokes littered throughout the wiki, we'd be creating our own version of the [[Marioverse]]. See [https://www.marioboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=3612#3612 this forum post from Feb. 9th], and [http://editthis.info/unmariowiki/Main_Page a quick editthis wiki as a test]. We'd be looking for detailed yet clever articles that can be funny or peak our interest of "what if..." etc. While "Un-" implies you can add anything you want, even if it's out of the question, "Fan-" implies that fandom recreation we hope to strive for. So, it's time to vote yet again. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 18:39, 23 March 2007 (EDT)

*Support a Fan Mario Wiki, but leave it at the Edittthis wiki already created or somewhere on a different website. We will not have it on the same server.

== Resolution Issue... ==
== Resolution Issue... ==
{{User:RAP/sig}} There are some problems when going to websites when using the current resolution users usually use. What would a better resolution for this website, 800x600-1600x1200; my Dad's computer prefers 1280x1024 while the new computer uses a smaller resolution then Dad's computer. The problem is the page (article) size, (I think so). So what I'm trying to say is what would be a better resolution that fits the page (article) properly?

:A lot of users make banners that are bigger than 800px, forgetting about laptops. I use a 1280 X 1024 and it works perfectly. 800 X 600 generally works too. What do you mean the page size is the problem? {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 13:25, 25 March 2007 (EDT)

Hmmm... I'm not really unsure about yet but do we have to put the Template or Category: Mario Party mini-games ino every Mario Party mini-game or just in Mario Party. I'm starting to see like Category: Mario Party 5 mini-games and Mario Party mini-games in some articles. If unsure; aren't we supposed to make a Category of Mario Party 1 mini-games? {{User:RAP/sig}}
