Hey guys, I'm Bazooka Mario, your local gun-nut happily armed resident of MarioWiki! As silly as my username can be and as tacky as this image might be, I'm a dedicated contributor to this wiki. I might seem serious and have a tendency to use big words, but don't worry, I'm a nice person and willing to help any budding editors. I also like a dose of nonsense and silliness (just don't laugh at my username unless you like a bayonet into your car). I love to argue in the wiki so I tend to engage in proposals and feature nominations very often. What else do I do? You can check below to get a taste of what my editing habits and goals are, even though I rarely meet them myself. But I do love editing here, as I'm here for 6 years, and, even though I feel like I matured a lot since I first signed up, my general personality's the same and all.

Oh, to ease your thoughts, I despise the NRA.

Friends

You know who you are. Either way, check my talk page and figure it out yourself.

Stuff I Do

File:Mariokartds1.PNG
Killing Donkey Kong is a pretty hard and smelly job to do, according to Mario. What's worse than tussling with a flea-infested ape with the breath that smells like rotten bananas? I've done it myself and seeing this picture, it's not very fun. Sometimes.

Aside from killing Wario, Donkey Kong, and Ganondork, what do I do here? Mostly, I make minor edits and stuff. I usually respond to mainspace talk page messages, unless I don't know the subject; I really hate it if people don't respond to my messages on mainspace talk pages. I'll try not to make people feel the same way.

I'm not a very talkative person, so my talk pages tend to be pretty small, unless it's my sister continuously putting up Wario messages.

I upload pictures I ripped or taken via Dolphin Emulator. I also use other emulators to take screenshots of games, mainly Mario Party. If there is a huge amount of Mario Party minigame pictures with Daisy, Waluigi, and Wario, blame it on my sister or me.

I am also a self-proclaimed grammar Nazi. Yes, this page may be riddled with errors, but yes, every grammar Nazi makes mistakes. And yes, we can overlook mistakes as well.


My Plans


Luigi's Mansion

File:TrappedMario.PNG
My friend. Or me. I didn't remember, but I did remember that seeing this was humiliating.

For my own convenience, here is what the Luigi's Mansion article should be required to have, or it should have it to be the difference between a good and a great article:

  • Interactable objects with the Game Boy Horror (mirrors, mouse holes, cheese).
  • A complete section of the Game Boy Horror and its functions.
  • A table listing each enemy, with a short description and small image
  • A table listing Mario's items and their locations. Flavor text upon finding the item is encouraged but not really needed.
  • A table listing miscellaneous objects that don't quite fit with others, such as Poison Mushrooms, Hearts, and Cheese. Other objects, including treasure chests and keys, should also be included.
  • A better controls section, listing what each button does rather than lumping the thing into one paragraph.
  • An expanded reception section.

This list may not be complete nor definitive and may be subject to change.

Mario

Nope, it still looks like trash. Sorry!

It's not about me, it's about the article. Here's what the article should have before it can be featured.

This list may not be complete nor definitive and may be subject to change.

And here are some opinions I have related to this article.

  • While the personality section may seem bloated as it is, every aspect of that section is required; therefore, nothing can be majorly trimmed. Mario, unlike Link and other silent protagonists, is not a true silent protagonist. He is not a complete template, as he is consistently shown to be more aggressive than, say, Luigi. His lack of talking can bolster the claim that Mario is underdeveloped, so the paragraphs are needed. When Mario actually talks, however, it's a striking exception that needs mentioning. Since Mario spans not just from literally hundreds of games, but also books and comics, his personality section is bound to be naturally big from his large history, not from the complexity of his personality.
  • The differences of looks between N64 and post-Luigi's Mansion may sound silly, but the transition from the N64 to the Gamecube is a quite big leap, with in-game models actually resembling the artwork. Afterward, from Gamecube-Wii U, the models are simply refined and more detailed rather than transitioning from a bunch of blocks to something much more sophisticated. Many characters have also received an overhaul in terms of artwork. N64 artwork is simplistic and less defined. There is a very visible difference between artwork from Mario Party 3 and Mario Party 4, so I think this difference needs to be noted. If you have a side-by-side comparison, Mario from N64 indeed looks very different. In fact, Super Smash Bros. Melee, an early Gamecube game, depicted Mario more as his N64 version than his Gamecube version.
  • Unlike the Bowser article, the Mario article keeps its story-heavy sections short, not wide, overbearing synopsizes that qualify as full-length articles within an article. The biggest problem Mario has, however, is covering the obscure, yet accessible media such as Club Nintendo, Super Mario Adventures, and White Knuckle Scorin'. This, I will address shortly, but if I get the spare time to load and edit the article.
  • I will try not to be protective of this article, but if I am, please tell me (politely).
  • The article was nominated to be featured at one point (check the quality of the article at the time; it's really bad), but I can safely say that its only remaining problem is coverage, which I'm dutifully doing here and there. The rest of the problems pointed out in this nomination is hopefully gone and a relic of the past. I've also proofread the entire history section of the article at one point, so I did remove cruft and changed to present tense. What's remaining is, again, coverage and focusing this article's writing like a laser, spotting any more cruft or poor writing. I may have to ask other editors feedback to avoid personal biases which will cloud my judgement of the writing quality.

King Fawful's questions and LeftyGreenMario's answers

Retrieved from LeftyGreenMario.

This was exactly my reaction when I realized what they did to Paper Mario: Sticker Star.

Q1: Have you ever tasted mustard of doom?

Yes, and it's so spicy, my eyes popped away. I'm blind now.

Q2: You have been kidnapped by Professor E. Gadd! what do you do?

I'd trick him by giving him a DVD of the Garbage Pail Kids. When the hideousness of the movie deeply engrosses him, I quietly sneak out.

Q3: Are you a lefty?

Duh.

Q4: Are you green?

I have a fair complexion, so no, I'm not green.

Q5: Are you Mario?

Dang I wish. Even if I did have to go through a gender change.

Q6: I need to poop, but i'm not finished writing this! what should i do?

Ask the next question. Isn't that obvious?

Q7: I just went. it felt good.

See?

Q8: Do you like waffles?

Yup. I like purple waffles the most, though, because they remind me of purple pizza with heavy syrup on top.

Q9: Do you like pancakes?

I like crêpe more.

Q10: Do you like french toast?

If I'm sharing them with Mario, then yes. Otherwise, I prefer purple waffles.
And thus, my chase for Wario extermination continues. That red guy is just a good friend of mine.
