#{{User|Wikiboy10}} While the citation needed templates are gone now, we still need better sources. One of the rules is that an article shouldn't have maintenance templates. Some sections of the article could use images such as ''Super Mario Galaxy DS'', a picture of the manual that mentions the bricks and Toads, the Laser Suit, and the magazine scan of Rosalina (which is linked but not as an image).

#{{User|TasteTheFiresOfHelp}} Each Galaxy DS, the manual mentioned by Wikiboy that mentions Mushroom Kingdom residents turning into bricks, an image of the Laser Suit in the power-up square for Super Mario World, and the magazine showing Rosalina are on the page now. There are no more maintainence templates either. So Wikiboy10’s remaining points, as of right now on this nomination page, have been addressed.

Regarding the three citation needed tags, I'm not sure how much more can be done. I had already looked for their sources before nominating the article, and after doing more research, I still cannot find proof that the first two exist. The last one is supported by [[User:Glowsquid|Glowsquid]], who added that information to the [[Ashley and Red]] article initially, but only from their memory, as the European [[WarioWare: Touched!]] website only shows an error page and is blacklisted from being archived. Glowsquid sent me an SWF file of a portal that was supposed to send you to web links, but I haven't been able to get clicking on the characters in the portal to send me to any website. If someone else wants to try, [http://web.archive.org/web/20070106160734id_/http://www.warioware.biz/_swf/ww_portal.swf this is a download link to the SWF]. The other two buttons with the game logos on them just send me to http://www.warioware.biz/_swf/twisted/ and http://www.warioware.biz/_swf/touched/ , both of which redirect to the main Nintendo website because their sites have been removed already. The WarioWare: Touched! website is looking like it is lost, but I think that we could afford to keep the citation tag up and still feature the article, especially considering how many other sources there are for the other topics.

:Adding onto this--currently the only citation needed right now (as of August 11, 2021) is indeed the Ashley source, which while cited, could use improvement as it has a roadblock thanks to Adobe Flash doing that "dying" thing. I know the Wario Land 4 promotional Greedville site is on Flashpoint (a very respected Flash archival project)--has anyone checked if the WarioWare: Touched site's flash components have been preserved on it? Even if not, it may be worth getting in touch with the Flashpoint team to hunt it down and properly preserve it once and for all.

We need a patroller or higher vote to remove Wikiboy10's oppose, as all of the images he said should be uploaded are uploaded now. The manual mentioned by Wikiboy that mentions Mushroom Kingdom residents turning into bricks, an image of the Laser Suit in the power-up square for Super Mario World, and the magazine showing Rosalina are on the page now. That, and there are no more maintenance templates. So, I see no reason why his vote should stay any longer. {{User|TasteTheFiresOfHelp}}, 17:08 PM, August 24, 2021
