== RE: Character infobox ==
== RE: Character infobox ==


When adding a character infobox, you must use the attributes listed [[Template:Character-infobox|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:

In addition, I just want to look towards the future and remind you all that we're looking to have December's issue 153 celebrate 25 years of ''Donkey Kong Country'' with a Donkey Kong theme. See if you can't think up some ways to theme your sections around the big ape and his extensive world.

As you'll recall, we're celebrating Donkey Kong in this issue to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''Donkey Kong Country''. If you can theme your section around the big ape and his pals and enemies (or you have an idea for a special contribution), you ought to do so!

Oh, yes, and as you think toward the future, please recall that we'll be doing a Dr. Mario themed special issue in July. You aren't required to theme your sections, but it adds something special if you can find a way to do so!

==This November, Make Strategies to Remember==
{{Template:SWarning|November 17th|13:45 EST|}}
Looking ahead, our December issue will be themed after the Shroobs and will be celebrating the fifteenth anniversary of ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''. Do think about ways to theme your sections if possible. Aliens, babies, time travel, the game itself, it's all fair game! If you feel particularly inspired, one-off special sections are quite welcome, too! It's important to focus on this month first, but it's not a bad idea to start thinking for next month.

==What's Your Strategy for the Shroob Invasion?==
{{Template:SWarning|December 15|13:42 EST|}}
In case you need the reminder, our December issue will be themed after the Shroobs and will be celebrating the fifteenth anniversary of ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''. Do think about ways to theme your sections if possible. Aliens, babies, time travel, the game itself, it's all fair game! If you feel particularly inspired, one-off special sections are quite welcome, too!
As always, there's room for flexibility if you'll be late or absent this month, so long as you let me know in advance of the deadline. It's particularly important you communicate these things early this month, though, as we're calculating our End-of-the-Year Awards and need to have records for our writers this month. That doesn't impact you much, but please know that earlier communication this month will ensure all goes smoothly.

==No November is Complete Without Strategies!!==
{{Template:SWarning|November 9|15:47 EDT|}}
Also, thinking ahead, our December special issue will be themed around the ''Yoshi'' franchise this year, so take note! If you can tie your sections to the green dinosaur and his games in December, that will be grand, but it's not a requirement.

==The End of the Year Does Not Mean the End of Strategies==
{{Template:SWarning|December 14|12:18 EST|}}
If you're looking to match this month's special issue theme, remember that we're celebrating the Yoshi series! Babies? Yoshis? Dinsoaurs? Fruits? Eggs? Magikoopas? Tap-Taps? It's all fair game as you look for ways to theme your sections! If you aren't able to make a Yoshi theme work, you can always do a general holiday theme, or you don't have to do a special theme at all.

As a reminder (not that you've missed it elsewhere), this month has a fitness theme to celebrate Yoshi876's 100th issue as Spotlight Manager. You'll likely be unable to theme your section around this, but, hey, the option is there (and the option to do a special one-off submission is also there).

==Trade You Twenty Blue Coins for a Section?==
{{Template:SWarning|June 15|11:07 EDT|}}
As a reminder, this issue is celebrating the 20th anniversary of ''Super Mario Sunshine'', and if you want to theme your section, you might theme them around summer and summer activities. However, you aren't required to theme your section, so, if you're section doesn't lend itself to that, don't worry about it a bit.
Good luck, and don't forget to vote in the Awards polls when they go up on June 12th!

Do you find it encouraging, discouraging? Are you indifferent to it? Those kinds of things are what we're interested in. If you have any thoughts on SOTM, do let us know!

Oh, but, before I let you go, let me remind you, as you look ahead to next month, that '''June's special issue theme will be movies/cinema.''' As always, you are encouraged to match the theme, but not required to do so, so don't worry if it's not possible with your section! I'll be impressed if you somehow manage to make ''Fire Emblem'' relate to movies.

As a reminder, our theme this month is movies and cinema! I know there's not much you can do to theme your section, but, hey, the epic fantasy has been a part of theaters for a long time. Maybe there's a fun little intro that can reference popular fantasy movies. No worries, of course, if you don't do anything with the theme!
