Is there any reason you need to leave a bunch of ellipses in your summaries? The edits have been dealt with, just ignore them. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:42, August 21, 2019 (EDT)

:Sorry. I just get really annoyed when those sorts of edits happen immediately after my most recent edits in question. It's annoying and it's cumbersome. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 23:04, August 21, 2019 (EDT)
::IMO, being annoyed is ''not'' a valid reason to [[User:Owencrazyboy9#Things on this Wiki Likely to Make Me Annoyed|leave edit reasons with "Grrr" and "...................................."]], which are both very passive-aggressive. {{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 15:11, August 22, 2019 (EDT)

:::I don't want to give you a reminder, but you shouldn't leave edit summaries with long ellipses. I even asked Alex95 why putting long ellipses in edit summaries is said to be passive-aggressive, and he responded, "It's just really unnecessary, does nothing helpful, and makes the message longer than it needs to be." Please comply. [[User:Dwhitney|Dwhitney]] ([[User talk:Dwhitney|talk]]) 21:38, May 8, 2020 (EDT)
== RE: What counts as a boss in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate? ==
What do you mean you don't know why people keep reverting the edits? It's been brought up both [[#Smash Ultimate|on your talk page]] and [[Talk:Donkey_Kong#Giant_Donkey_Kong_in_Smash_Bros._Ultimate|Donkey Kong's]], both of which you took part in.
Regardless, a "boss", in its simplest definition, is someone that stands in your way of a goal. Health Bars, announcements, and permanent effects don't matter, it's the ''role''. Giant Donkey Kong fits the same role as Giga Bowser in some Classic Modes. There are also bosses in some other games that act differently from one another, though it certainly isn't a common case.
In the case of Giant Donkey Kong's role (as the example) being different in some other classic modes... so? He's not a boss in that character's progression, but he is a boss in another character's. A boss character can have many different roles. Ever play ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''? Magnus and Dark Pit are both treated as an ally, a boss, and a playable character on one occasion each.
Before ''Ultimate'', Metal Mario is considered a boss in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' by his trophy (though "mid-level", he is still called a boss), yet he is still a playable character when Mario grabs a Metal Box. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:00, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
:Well, yeah. They can be treated by the game as bosses in specific circumstances, but in this specific example, spirits on the Spirit Board and World of Light and other fighters in Classic Mode also have this "boss role" of impeding the player's progress...just like the Giant Yoshi and Giant Wario in Kirby's Classic Mode...yet again, as another example. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 14:16, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
::What I meant was someone who stands directly at or before the goal and tries to keep you from obtaining it. Everything else is just a standard obstacle. Giant Donkey Kong fulfills both of these roles. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:23, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
:::Sure. But then again, there should be some way to distinguish the major end-of-Classic Mode roadblocks on the template instead of lumping them with the other bosses from both World of Light and Classic Mode. It's either that, or start a proposal. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 14:26, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
::::Well, with the exception of Galeem and Dharkon, they're all used in both, though the Giant/Metal characters aren't exactly bosses in World of Light. Splitting them between WoL and Classic would just be inaccurate, or you'd end up duplicating information to cover both bases. How are you thinking? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:33, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
:::::I meant in the context of not including the bosses with the health bars at the top of the screen. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 14:53, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
::::::That seems like an unnecessary distinction, considering what we just talked about here. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:21, September 7, 2019 (EDT)
== Welcome back ==
I'm sure you would remember me, I just want to say that I am sorry for the rude stuff I said to you right before you were blocked (which I feel a bit responsible for, since I got a warning at the same time), now I hope we can put it behind us and we can just remain civilised while editing on here. [[User:Mario Sakuraba|Mario Sakuraba]] ([[User talk:Mario Sakuraba|talk]]) 05:03, December 10, 2019 (EST)
:I actually didn't notice it because I've been on WiKirby for the entire block duration and then some, but thanks for apologizing. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 11:17, December 10, 2019 (EST)
== (Late) Welcome Back ==
Hi, Owencrazyboy9. Hope all is well. During your block period, I was busy with lots of schoolwork. I made less edits on the MarioWiki, but I still surfed the wiki as a registered user. I'm a freshman in high school, and three months later, atfer you're unblocked, I'm studying for final exams. Time goes by quickly! [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 21:35, December 15, 2019 (EST)
:I could say the same thing about time going by fast. Good luck in your exams! – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 17:07, December 17, 2019 (EST)
== PAL is not the same as Europe ==
In several recent edits across the site, you've replaced the PAL/NTSC terminology with specific countries and regions, namely grouping all of PAL as Europe. This excludes many countries and regions commonly found in the templates such as Australia, Hong Kong, and South Korea. I think you should revert these edits.--[[User:Platform|Platform]] ([[User talk:Platform|talk]]) 02:29, August 4, 2022 (EDT)
:I see that you've made a [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/53#Either_restrict_usage_of_or_don't_use_NTSC_or_PAL_on_articles|proposal]] a few years back regarding this issue. Is there any reason that you're replacing instances of NTSC/PAL for older system games when the passed proposal calls for them to be exempted?--[[User:Platform|Platform]] ([[User talk:Platform|talk]]) 05:36, August 4, 2022 (EDT)
