== What about user subpages? == Subpages are never allowed without permission from an [[MarioWiki:Administrators|Administrator]].
...Is this outdated info? Archives count as sub-pages and I planned to add coding for a new user page style on subpages so I can call the content using a template ({{User:Wayoshi/Subpage}}) so the user page text looks nice and clean. Wayoshi ( T·C·@ ) 17:56, 1 October 2006 (EDT)
User Pages auto-protected?Edit
Other users may edit pages in your user space.
This information seems to be out of date. No user can edit another user's main user page. They're protected. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 06:22, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
Hey SteveEdit
You should unprotect this so I can update it a bit.SaudyTalk!
11K linksEdit
Happy 11K anniversary! SWFlash
do not include works of fictionEdit
why don't video games count as works of fiction?
Subpages?Edit
Can I create a subpage with a bunch of trivia questions?Magic Koopa Guy (talk) 18:20, 25 February 2013 (EST)
ThanksEdit
Oh, that's why i can't create my own userpage xD thanks for the help. --Zzzleepy (talk) 16:12, 23 April 2013 (EDT)
Um...Edit
Is it part of the rules to say this kind of language on someone's talk page? User_talk:MeritC#Mona_infobox_image It sorta disturbs me a little bit....
- We do have a rule about vulgar and blatantly inappropriate language, but this isn't the case here. It varies with people's sensitivity, and such discussion between friends shouldn't be intervened like this. Though, if it really does bother you then I'll happy to change what I said.
Shouldn't the "userpage" be "user page"?Edit
That's how it's formatted on the tabs on the top of a page. Alternatively, change that into one word. PikaSamus (talk) 13:46, 12 May 2014 (EDT)
Userspace RedirectEdit
Are redirects to certain subpages allowed? I'm planning on creating two redirects to my sig. User:Fawful's Minion/Signature and User:Fawful's Minion/Sig. I saw Marioguy1 do this and I was wondering if this still applies now. 
(talk) (edits) 18:52, 26 August 2016 (EDT)
- Why would you need a redirect to your signature? As long as you enter your "sig" subpage correctly in your preferences (which you appear to have done so), no other page link is necessary. MarioWiki:Signature says that your signature subpage "must be /sig, and just one subpage".
- The only redirects permitted to your subpages are those which are created when your username is changed, and when you move one of your subpages to a different title (such as an article draft page). In both cases, a redirect is left behind automatically. I would not encourage manually creating various redirects for your personal convenience.
ShortcutsEdit
I added SMW:US as a shortcut (because Userspace), but the page is protected. Can an admin add the shortcut to the page? -YFJ (talk · edits) 12:17, 26 November 2017 (EST)
QuestionEdit
Do we have the right to add thing that annoy us in the wiki? I can't ask for permission to Owencrazyboy9, since he's blocked, so i ask here. --

User RulesEdit
A new user has to be a member of the wiki for at least one week and make at least ten edits before they can create pages, including their own user page.
ಠ_ಠ
IDK Seems a little harsh to me but maybe it's because on Pikipedia I only had to wait 24 hours to create my Userpage
The preceding unsigned comment was added by LongTailCat3 (talk).
- That rule was implemented to curb vandalism and people who register on MarioWiki only to self-promote themselves than contribute to the wiki.

- One week does seem a bit long. I think 3 days might suffice for a waiting period for creating pages.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 19:39, March 18, 2021 (EDT)
- I do agree that a week is a bit long and vandalsim isn't as rampant as it once was (most of it is from drive-by IPs rather than creating spammy pages) and from my experience, 3 day blocks baps most vandals I've dealt with but I think this needs agreement from within us to enact change. Ray Trace(T|C) 20:33, March 18, 2021 (EDT)
- I'm quite surprised this doesn't include uploading images, I recall a few users getting blocked recently for signing up and immediately uploading spam images.

- Gives people long enough to realize they're supposed to be here for helping with information, not gaining publicity within the community. We've had a few users recently ask how to make their userpace immediately after joining (see MarioWiki talk:FAQ). I suppose a week is a bit too long right now with our current moderation team, but that'd be something Porplemontage handles. It's also not just a userpage prevention measure, it applies to all page creations. Bots and vandals will continue to try to make pages even after the autoconfirm day limit has passed, but won't be able to because they either a) haven't reached the edit limit or b) are blocked before they get the chance. I get people don't like waiting, but that's kind of the point here.

Question about user page content and sub-pages.Edit
What if you have 1 or more sections in a user page that are really big? SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 16:58, December 12, 2023 (CST)
- Sections can be as long as however you want. There's no restrictions on how you organise your userpage (as long as they don't interfere with the wiki's appearance); it's mainly the content itself that's the concern in the policy.
Mario JC 07:29, December 13, 2023 (EST)
- Ah, Ok. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 09:00, December 13, 2023 (CST)
Edit
So I recently asked about what would a user need to do if their userpage had 1 or more sections that were really big, and 
Mario JC said a userpage section could be as long "as however you want." But that got me thinking. What about those custom infoboxes I see on many userpages? Are they allowed, or not? SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 11:52, December 19, 2023 (CST)
- You're welcome to use and reformat any of the mainspace infoboxes on your userpage. Often people like to take the source code of those templates and customise the colours/fields for themselves. As long as it doesn't somehow add a mainspace category to your userpage, you're fine.
- Ok. Thank you. I'll try to not "somehow add a mainspace category to my userpage". SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 07:37, December 20, 2023 (CST)
