Hello there! I am Doc von Schmeltwick. I lurked on this site since about 2008 (I remember Bowser's Inside Story and NSMBW getting announced long after I had discovered this site), then finally joined on May 15, 2017. I really enjoy the Mario games, as well as many other things. What I dislike is political garbage, be it governmental, social, identity, et cetera. Just...keep that off here, it does not belong.

My other wiki project
Best character who hasn't been made (yet): Gold Tanooki Cat Baby Metal Waluigette: ultimate roster filler!
Most underappreciated artwork ever
If you're actually reading this excuse for a page, this is probably you (talking to you epecially KF)
I wanted to keep this on a whim, lel
Some current goals:
Definitely
- Split Bin into something logical
- Merge Lava Piranha to Fire Piranha Plant
- Merge Bob-omb Buddy to Bob-omb or at least clean up the former akin to Red Boo
- Do something with the various actual Mecha-Bowsers (Kun, Safari, Sunshine, and Galaxy)
- Merge Fire Orb to Fireball
- Determine proper distinction (if any) between Fire Breath and the projectile "Bowser's fire"
- Determine proper distinction (if any) between Fireball, Fireball (obstacle), and Bowser's fire
- Merge Water Barrel to Barrel
- Merge blue and red Electro-Koopas
- Consider the green Cheep Cheeps in the Super Mario Maker to only borrow the designs of Blurp and Deep Cheep rather than being them outright (and thus reflect the games' own terminology)
- Merge Flatbed Ferry to lift
- Split Yoshi's Island between the "Yoster Island" (primarily Mario franchise) and "Yoshi Island" (primarily Yoshi franchise) versions
- Split Bowser Snow Statue from Mizzter Blizzard
- Merge volcanic debris and Helio to pyroclast
Maybe
- Split "Boss" Boo (ie SM64, MP2-4, MPL) from Big Boo (and King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine))
- Merge the Dark Moon section of Big Boo into Boolossus
- Split Mega Boo (ie SMG2) from Big Boo
- Merge the red and blue Spiny Shells
- Merge Owl (species) to Heavy Zed
- Make a page to combine generic instances of switches (including generically named instances of ! Switch) and/or buttons
- Merge Jumping Fire Piranha Plant to Jumping Piranha Plant (Encyclopedia/Portal-only distinction later titles seem to go back on)
- Merge colored Magikoopas
- Merge the identical chef-specific Paper Mario series dishes
- Determine extent of coverage for 2003 Diddy Kong Pilot and/or Banjo Pilot
- Merge Lightfish to Glimmer
- Merge Pile Driver Micro-Goomba to Mini Goomba
- Merge Winged Strollin' Stu to Swipin' Stu
- Merge the character and species articles for Yoshi, Toad, and Magikoopa/Kamek
- Merge Panser and Volcano Plant
- Split all the machine parts from Super Duel Mode
- Split Mini Goomba and Small Goomba (SM64/PMCS)
- Merge Purple Bomber to Ceiling Surprise
No proposal needed!
- Collect more SGB sprites
- Finish PM enemy idles (Lava Piranha is probably asking too much)
- Give SPP better coverage in general
- Upload proper Wario's Woods NES graphics
- Upload Mobile Golf sprites
- Upload NES sprites for platformer games to cover all used palette scenarios
So you've gotten into a debate with me
Want some tips into effectively arguing with me? For starters, if I start a debate acting on-the-fence suggesting a change, do not under any circumstances attempt to shut it down with a "no that's 100% impossible." Instead, take a more ambiguous approach like I'd started with. Basically, the more you push, the more I'll push back. I'm like Canary Mary from Banjo-Tooie in that regard. Additionally, "this is an English Wiki" is not now and never will be an argument. It may be an English wiki, but it's a predominantly Japanese franchise, so not looking at it from an international perspective is disingenuous and helps nobody.
