Italics

I've seen you go back and forth with this, but keep in mind that any game title you name on articles needs to be in italics (as TheFlameChomp has done for you here). MarioWiki:Manual of Style lists some basic guidelines for editing (including sections) if you'd like to give it a read.

If I didn't apply italics with a game title, it was a mistake. B700465189a9 (talk) 17:24, 15 February 2019 (EST)

Off/Off Switch comment

Hello, please note that replying to old comments is against the rules. Also, your reply to Mario Jc is disrespectful to a bureaucrat. Thanks for your understanding. Doomhiker (talk)Artwork of a Topmini from Super Mario Galaxy 19:05, 25 February 2019 (EST)

Sections

Please avoid creating separate sections if there isn't enough distinctive information to split them, and especially not with empty sections. Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 20:04, 3 March 2019 (EST)

Okay. Is a list of appearances in levels enough to split them? B700465189a9 (talk) 15:54, 4 March 2019 (EST)

Unfinished pages

Hello, if you are not done making a page, then please add it to a document, make a user sandbox, or add the {{construction}} template to the page instead of creating an unfinished page. Thanks! Doomhiker (talk)Artwork of a Topmini from Super Mario Galaxy 15:46, March 12, 2019 (EDT)

Per all but the last one. You shouldn't create stub articles marked with {{construction}} so it can be finished later; it must have a sufficient amount of content from the start, but if little information has been revealed about the subject, wait for more information to be released before creating it. Please follow the MarioWiki:Manual of Style when creating new articles as well. Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 21:55, March 12, 2019 (EDT)
Please stop Making stub articles on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

You have created another stub article. Pages must have all available information before being published. As said before you can create a document or make a sandbox to store your writing before publishing it, if you need more time then you currently have.

New subjects

Subjects in an upcoming game use {{new subject}}, not {{upcoming}}. Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 23:49, May 11, 2019 (EDT)

Ok. B700465189a9 (talk) 17:17, May 12, 2019 (EDT)

Categories

Hello, B700465189a9. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

The category link needs the "Category:" prefix to work (Category:Super Mario Maker Images, not Super Mario Maker Images). Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 19:37, May 15, 2019 (EDT)

Error on my part, although I was trying to use Category:Super Mario Maker 2 Images. Tangentially related: shouldn't forms be separate listings on Super Mario Maker, if we're going to split Goombas from Goombrats? B700465189a9 (talk) 19:46, May 15, 2019 (EDT)

User subpages

Your User:B700465189a9/Userboxes/Game completion is not allowed. The code for the userbox can just be placed on your page, you don't need a separate page for the userbox. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:16, May 16, 2019 (EDT)

Templates

I understand the use for {{Difficulty}}, but I don't think it's coded correctly. "2" only displays one star, for instance. Unless it's supposed to be that way, I haven't played Super Mario Maker 2 yet.

But what is {{Loop}} supposed to be for? Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 16:33, July 19, 2019 (EDT)

I am not experienced with MediaWiki syntax. {{Difficulty}} is meant to show a star rating (parameters 3 and 4 produce ★★★☆), and {{Loop}} was meant to accomplish it. B700465189a9 (talk) 16:42, July 19, 2019 (EDT)
At its most basic, the template would look something like this:
{{#switch:{{{1}}} |1=☆ |2=★ |3=★☆ |4=★★ }}
And so forth. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:25, July 19, 2019 (EDT)
That's with a defined maximum number of stars. The previous version took two parameters for minimum and maximum stars. B700465189a9 (talk) 07:30, July 20, 2019 (EDT)
