Ok, PLEASE tell me this is a joke. papertoycf7.gif Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back! papertoycf7.gif

I edited it so it had real facts – I guess this can be updated once a month. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 01:15, 28 August 2007 (EDT)

A lot of wikis use info from the most recently created articles. Perhaps we should adopt this policy. Every week or so someone could browse through every new mainspace article created in the week, and pick out three or fours interesting facts. -- Son of Suns

That sounds cool. Mario riding YoshiXzelionETC
That sounds like it could work, really well. My Bloody Valentine
That sounds like DPL can find all articles created from a certain timepoint...idea forming... Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 23:38, 28 August 2007 (EDT)


Bingo. Unfortunately transcluding content runs a risk of including templates on this page, which made a SUPER big mess when I tested it. A bit long to load, but more custom than Special:Newpages. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 01:29, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Moved to MarioWiki:Main Page Maintenance

This is useful for picking out a couple new articles in the week, but I don't think we should have a list of new pages on the front page. It would simply clutter it. -- Son of Suns

Never did I want it to go on the Main Page. I was thinking it would just stay here. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 17:51, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Okay now it shows information from both old and new articles, and changes every time you look at it. Tadaa!2.gifPlumberTadaaa!.gif

A New Style

Instead of having only did you Knows from New Articles we should use the <option></option> feature and gather Random (and cool) facts from articles (maybe from Trivia Sections). If we do this we could have different DYKs almost everytime (like with Plumber did here.  XzelionETC

I am with you all the way.

I like it the way it is. Not only it makes sure that the information presented there is new on the wiki (assuming it is updated regularly), it is also a nice way to feature recent additions. / Time Questions 13:08, 5 November 2007 (EST)

Maintenance

Is actually anyone concerned with this template? I ask because it is so rarely updated. Could I just edit myself? --Grandy02 03:54, 20 June 2008 (EDT)

No one is concerned with it at the moment, so please feel free to edit it! (We used to update it once a week (on Saturdays), and used facts from newly-created articles, but unless you want to update it regularly, I think it doesn't matter which articles you take the facts from.) Time Questions 14:33, 20 June 2008 (EDT)

Fawfulized Yoshi?

Wait, who said it was a yoshi? No one ever confirmed that, and (yes, guidebook reference) that they were shot at one of the brothers by an offscreen monster, and I don't think they mean a Yoshi. Baby Mario Bloops

Ok, if its not official I will change it for "monster" :) --  The 'Shroom 17:49, 4 February 2010 (EST)

Ok, heres some trivia that I'll give BLOF on Saturday when its time to update. I will delete this once I memorize it.   Boo der dash  

Whats the point of this template? Its not on any articles!  ' MileyCyrusSoulja

Fake info

New Super Mario Bros. Wii is the first Mario platformer game to feature multiplayer co-op at the same time since Mario Bros..

WTF? What about NSMB??? No? There's a lot of Mario games with that feature. (I remember like 3 already) SWFlash 

NSMB has Multiplayer Co-op? --  The 'Shroom 18:19, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
It says Mario PLATFORMER, which are only DK, DKJ, MB, SMB, SMB2, SMBLL, SMB3, SMW, SMW2, SML, SML2, SM64, SMS, SM64DS, SMG, SMG2, NSMB, and NSMBW. Most of the sidescrollers have multiplayer rotational, Super Mario 64 DS is multiplayer vs, not co-operative, and SMG/SMG2 is not direct co-op, as normal co-op means that both players are equal, which one player lacks a character completely in the Galaxy games. ***Super!~Nickno 21:03, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Dr. Mario

It should say "21 years", not "11 years". Flicky1991 05:10, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

curious

Im just curious, do only administrators get to write the Did You Know? column?    - It's a me, Mario! -  

I believe that Lindsay151 is in charge of updating it but others can fix mistakes. Raven Effect (talk)

Users can update the template, i just do it snice no one else does.  L151 

Well then, can i do once? only once? ItsameMario 00:14, 7 July 2012 (EDT)    - It's a me, Mario! -  

As i said, users can update the template, every Saturdays. So Yes.

Mario's age - any source ?

According to the current Did You Know, Mario is stated to be 26 in his trophy description in the Japanese version of SSBM. But do we have any source for that ? A Google search gives nothing, and even this wiki doesn't have this info stated anywhere else. Koopalmier 08:29, 3 June 2012 (EDT)

Dogadon

Angry Aztec, like Fungi Forest, doesn't feature lava. This should merit the trivia's deletion or, we should mention Angry Aztec as a level that doesn't feature lava. BNK [E|T|C] 04:23, 9 September 2012 (EDT)

Is this correct?

"In the Paper Mario series, the maximum amount of coins which can be carried at a time is 999." From my knowledge, the maximum amount of coins which can be carried at a time in Paper Mario: Sticker Star is 9999, so is this sentence correct? -World of Freak  

No, it isn't. Just a few days ago, I had 1028 coins. I don't know what the maximum is, but it's more than 999. Mario4Ever (talk)
Its 9999 coins, FYI. File:Goomba - New Super Mario Bros U.png Goomba (talk · edits) 02:03, 19 February 2013 (EST)

SUGGESTION: A page of previous DidYouKnow entries

  This talk page or section has a conflict or a question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

I know I can just go to the history and individually check these pieces of nice trivia, but why not have a page dedicated to listing down all the DidYouKnow entries from the past to the present? It would have all the entries in a convenient matter and it increases guests and users the chance to click on the article links for more info. Sort it down by user contribution, what date it was issued, etc. It would be nice to look back, and hopefully not rehash the same pieces of trivia and get away with it. I can do it if anyone else doesn't do it. -- RAP... 01:20, 10 May 2013 (EDT)

Why not make a proposal about it?
