:So the question now is...what to do with this information? I suppose it would be a good idea to ask Mister Wu if he happens to have that guide. If not, I ''guess'' I can use up a gift card... [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 18:17, January 25, 2024 (EST)

::Guess what? I randomly decided to look up this guide on eBay and found a [https://www.ebay.com/itm/364336834725 listing] that just so happens to share pictures. As luck would have it, [https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/nMcAAOSwcK9jlqtJ/s-l1600.jpg one] happens to have that very mini-game. Although the page number is cut off, it confirms that "Gas Boss Teresa" is legit! [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 17:45, April 23, 2024 (EDT)

== Trapeze ==
This isn't important, but where in the real-world is a trapeze considered to be a seated board? I am not a circus savant, but I am not familiar with any source anywhere that asserts that a trapeze is anything except a bar suspended by rope on both ends. A legitimate trapeze cannot be anything other than that. Unless some authority I don't know about asserts this elsewhere, based on its context within the game, I do not think it is appropriate or accurate to suggest "trapeze" is an acceptable translation for the board in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 16:51, February 22, 2024 (EST)
:An acrobat swing is a thing that "trapeze" can refer to, while "swing" can also be used for the grab-bars. Either way, the names in Japanese there are literally shared, so not mentioning both on both pages feels mildly disingenuous in my opinion. I always saw the SMS and SMG objects as variations of the same thing, myself. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 17:46, February 22, 2024 (EST)
::Ah, I see. I think a trapeze is a ''type'' of swing, but it is not accurate to say all swings ''are'' trapezes, or that the terms can be used interchangeably. A trapeze is a bar suspended by ropes at both ends. If the subject is anything but that, it is not a trapeze.
::If anything, I think it would be more accurate to change Japanese name on the [[Trapeze]] page to just say "swing", especially since a trapeze is more narrowly referred to as 空中ブランコ (Kūchū Buranko, "air swing") in Japanese, and the Japanese text only calls them ブランコ (Buranko). But I still don't think it is accurate to say the name of the Sunshine board can be translated to "trapeze". It just isn't one, and I don't think it was intended for it to be seen as one. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 18:08, February 22, 2024 (EST)
== About Aliens (yes, really) ==
We saw that there was a discussion to potentially delete [[Alien (Club Nintendo)]] and we had some time to kill, so we went ahead and reworked the entire article. Let us know how it looks--hopefully, a lot better, and some have mentioned it might not be worth deleting anymore (albeit, the older revision is probably fit for preservation on BJAODN... ;P)
P.S. sorry we haven't gotten around to the Thieves category. Rest assured, we did not forget! It's just that this year has been extremely hectic thus far, and we're waiting for a relative moment of pause before we re-commit to a larger project like that. {{User:Camwoodstock/sig}} 02:32, February 23, 2024 (EST)
== Ricco Harbor and Gelato Beach polluted pirahna plants. ==
been awhile since I've played the game, and since I've put that there, but that is exactly how it happened. done it once or twice, when the state of the plaza with the plants show up I was trying to do all of Bianco Hills, and when I got my next shine and returned to the plaza, the next plaza state was up with the boathouse resurfaced with the portal active, and the same thing happened to the lighthouse when it's event came around. If I recall this was on the original Gamecube version as well. Not sure if it has to be an uncollected shine, or one already obtained will suffice. But that is how it happened, I know for a fact I did not fight those Pirhana plants. Would say maybe it was a glitch, but then why did it happen at both times? regardless that was my experience and how it happened. all i did was collect shines instead of fighting them and the game treated it as if they were dealt with.[[User:Pikmin theories|Pikmin theories]] ([[User talk:Pikmin theories|talk]]) 01:55, March 10, 2024 (EST)
:Well I always do exactly that and it has ''never'' happened to me. Did you interact with them in any way at all? Also, what region? I'm playing on the US release. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 12:39, March 10, 2024 (EDT)

== RE:Portrificationizer ==
The way I see it, besides the part about the vandalism, is that it's an overused and overdone joke that's been done better elsewhere. {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 19:57, March 25, 2024 (EDT)
== Proposal cleaned up ==
I cleaned up [[MarioWiki:Proposals#Broaden the scope of the &lcub;&lcub;unreferenced&rcub;&rcub; template|my proposal]] by adding the <code><nowiki><pre></nowiki></code> tags. You should take a look at what the template will look like from above. What do you think how my proposal looks? {{User:GuntherBB/sig}} 21:10, March 30, 2024 (EDT)
:Don't ask me, ask YoYo. I think it looks fine now. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:15, March 30, 2024 (EDT)
==Sprite Prince Iggy==
Isn't Iggy one of the few ''Super Princess Peach'' Koopalings where we have a pretty good idea of the intended assembly, though? [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDvkMnewQPo&t=578s Here] is the test room with Iggy in his idle animation, and [https://randomhoohaas.flyingomelette.com/shr/spp/lwarp.html here] is a better picture of it with the fog disabled. The "taller" shading looks a bit rougher, so I think they were at least going to go with a shorter Iggy before abandoning the Koopalings.

:I suppose, but with the fogless one being a still image that's still not too much to go off of. His mouth also appears to be lolling open the entire time there as well, so it doesn't seem complete.
