I'm a big fan of SMW, and I remember each level, so I'll be working on the articles for the game's levels;  a lot of them are too short, but no one's deleting them. Anyone want to help me? I'm honestly not the greatest writer... {{User:CrystalYoshi/sig}}

The articles on each level are excellent!  Can we list them in this article somewhere?  Would be great it the ToC listed the level names so people could jump straight to them from this article itself.  Maybe just a simple sub-heading after each "world" name.

Should we talk about Kaizo Mario, an extremely difficult ROM hack for Super Mario World? I know it's not official so my idea my not get positive reviews but it's just a thought.[[File:Yoshi logo.png|100px|link=User:YoshiAwsumness]][[User talk:YoshiAwsumness|Awsum!!!!!]] 20:20, 23 January 2014 (EST)

No, if it was a hack made by Nintendo, it it could be put in, but it's unofficial so we should not. --[[User:Mariofan5000|Mariofan5000]] ([[User talk:Mariofan5000|talk]]) 00:14, 24 January 2014 (EST)

Should someone change the images for the 96 exits screens to reflect the changes on TCRF? --[[User:Naruto_64|Naruto_64]] ([[User talk:Naruto_64|talk]]) 07:56, 5 August 2016 (PDT)

==Reworking this Article==
So I came across this article earlier and I feel like it's in need of a reconstruction. Specifically speaking, the inconsistencies of the "Enemies" part of the article strike me as particularly odd. Though I'm unsure what could be done, I guess you could either replace the sprites that are currently in use with, for example, the pictures from the end of the game, or you could at least replace some of it so there's less of a weird mixture between animated and non-animated sprites. Also, I guess there's a problem with large-scale enemies like the Boo Rings and Clusters, so I guess you could get some other way of imagery about this.
I felt like I should ask what everyone thinks before taking on a significant change like this on my own. -{{User:Freakworld/Sig}} 09:41, 20 August 2016 (EDT)
:Hey Freakworld! You bring up a great point, I definitely have problems with the enemy section too. The mix between animated and static images isn't ideal. And the overly large objects (namely the Column) and the full screenshots showing the groups of Boos causes the table rows to become excessively tall, and leaves a lot of empty space around the text.
:To me, the animation isn't necessary. Although the [[Boo Buddy Block]] is useful in showing the transformation, it would acceptable to have a static image only showing the block. The sprite of the [[Kamikaze Koopa]] could be left an an exception to show the animation.
:As for image size, I think we shouldn't show anything much larger than a Banzai Bill sprite (64x64px). I think the larger sprites or enemies which take up more space should instead be shown through a small portion of a screenshot. Just now, I've cropped portions of those full Boo screenshots, which have now been replaced in the table. I think this could be the solution with that stupidly large Column sprite, too.

== Duplication Glitch ==
You know the glitch with the shell and you can duplicate question blocks? It's pretty easy, and it should be noted. [[User:LuigiSauce|LuigiSauce]] ([[User talk:LuigiSauce|talk]]) 13:15, 9 April 2017 (EDT)

== Decoy Dolls ==
Since they are named in the encyclopedia, which we don't cite, how are we going to do with them? Use their Japanese name, or dig or wait? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 07:49, June 5, 2019 (EDT)
:Specifically what Lemmy and Wendy use. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 13:07, June 7, 2019 (EDT)
::Also, which quote mention them in the Nintendo Power guide? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 04:12, June 8, 2019 (EDT)
:::The closest mentions in ''Mario Mania'': "''Lemmy and two fake Koopalings emerge from the pipes randomly.''" on page 87 and "''The illustrious Wendy O. Koopa makes her appearance with two Wendy stand-ins. You’ve got to single out and stomp the real Wendy three times, or the flames and decoys will send you reeling.''" on page 131. Note that there was a Prima guide for ''Super Mario Advance 2'', but I don't have it. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 07:42, June 8, 2019 (EDT)
::::Then what are we going to do if we don't cite the encyclopedia? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 13:03, June 11, 2019 (EDT)
:::::There's also ''Nintendo Power Advance'' V.4: "''Lemmy and his two Lemmy decoys pop in and out of their pipes, trying to grab you.''" on page 43, and on page 69: "''Bowser’s only Koopette, Wendy, surrounds herself with decoys and pipes—much like her brother Lemmy.''" and "''When Wendy pops her vain little self out of a pipe, her two decoys join in.''" Maybe "'''decoy'''" would suffice? [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 12:48, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
::::::It's not a proper name. Since we do have an English name for it (Decoy Doll), but we can't cite the encyclopedia, that's a real problem. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 12:52, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
:::::::Yeah, it's a proper name. As far as I can tell, no other Mario enemy uses the term 'decoy', so it works. {{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 12:53, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
::::::::It's consistent in this reference, so I'd say it works too. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 12:58, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
:::::::::@TheDarkStar, no, it's not a proper name, since it's not capitalized. If the encyclopedia ever gets retranslated, if they use "Decoy", that'd be because of us. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 15:45, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
::::::::::Uncapitalized terms can count if they are used consistently. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 15:52, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
== Proposal to French translation ==
Mario Wiki is a incredible websote and it should be available to everyone. As a French, I propose myself to translate articles to French so young French users should be able to understand. I want the site to be accessible the most possible. All pf the images and informations will be at the same place, only translated. This page would be the first one and I'll take time to translate others. I hope I do bot mistaken the proposal to this place. I don't lnow anywhere else to propose. {{unsigned|LMLink}}
==Remove numbers from ''Super Mario World'' Koopaling castle article titles==
{{SettledTPP}}
{{ProposalOutcome|no quorum|1-0-3}}
Currently, the Koopaling castles are an example of a wiki [[MarioWiki:Naming#Technical restrictions|technical restriction]], as a title cannot start with "#". However, while this may be technically true going strictly by in-game names, there is a way we can get around it. Specifically, the game's English guides. Most all of them - namely ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 28, the ''Super NES'' Player's Guide, ''Nintendo Power Advance'' v.4, and ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2–Prima’s Official Strategy Guide'' - leave the castle numbers out (''Mario Mania'' presents both). This proposal will refer to these supplementary sources to respectively move 1 Iggy's Castle, 2 Morton's Castle, 3 Lemmy's Castle, 4 Ludwig's Castle, 5 Roy's Castle, 6 Wendy's Castle, and 7 Larry's Castle to Iggy's Castle, Morton's Castle, Lemmy's Castle, Ludwig's Castle, Roy's Castle, Wendy's Castle, and Larry's Castle. There are two options for this proposal: the first will '''mainly''' affect the article titles and piping, so the articles will still be displayed as #1 Iggy's Castle, #2 Morton's Castle, #3 Lemmy's Castle, #4 Ludwig's Castle, #5 Roy's Castle, #6 Wendy's Castle, and #7 Larry's Castle; the second will '''fully''' affect presentation so that the numberless names are prioritized over the numbered ones. The Naming example will have to be modified to account for the change, or possibly the section will have to be removed entirely if the second option passes as I'm not sure what other titles this limitation applies to.
'''Proposer''': {{User|LinkTheLefty}}<br>
'''Deadline''': <s>December 31, 2022, 23:59 GMT</s> <s>Extended to January 7, 2023, 23:59 GMT</s> <s>Extended to January 14, 2023, 23:59 GMT</s> Extended to January 21, 2023, 23:59 GMT
===Remove numbers but prioritize numbered names===
#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} Per loophole.
===Remove numbers and prioritize numberless names===
===Keep title limitation as-is===
#{{User|Hewer}} Per [[MarioWiki:Naming]], [[MarioWiki:Naming#Acceptable sources for naming|in-game names trump guide names]].
#{{User|Killer Moth}} Per Hewer.
#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} This isn't a big deal
===Comments===
@Hewer: The presentation of these articles will not change if this proposal passes - it is merely to further circumvent the wiki's technical limitations in which the in-game names cannot be used in full. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 21:15, December 17, 2022 (EST)
:I don't really see the benefit of the change then given the titles would still not be abiding by usual naming rules either way, and this doesn't really 'further circumvent' it if all we're changing is removing the numbers that wouldn't be seen without editing pages. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 04:48, December 18, 2022 (EST)
::Then I'll add it as an option. FYI, policy exceptions are allowed via proposal. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 05:47, December 18, 2022 (EST)
