::::::::Hey, sorry to butt in, but there is a "Show Preview" button next to "Save Page".  That is one of the most useful buttons on the wiki, as it lets you see what a page would look like with your edit--without saving the page.  As an extra precaution, you can copy the source code to [[MarioWiki:Sandbox|the sandbox]], which is a page you can edit however you want, so long as you obey the comment at the top.  This page was specifically designed to give users practice editing pages and help them familiarize themselves with wiki coding.  If you want, you can also create a personal sandbox in your userspace.  And just so you know, users only get blocked after a last warning ({{tem|lastwarn}}); just a regular warning like this one means you have two more chances.  For more info on warnings and blocks, see [[MarioWiki:Warning policy|these]] [[MarioWiki:Blocking policy|pages]].And lastly, don't let this warning discourage you from editing more.  While I don't know what it's like to have a warning myself, I know that warnings do discourage many people, so don't let that happen to you, okay? -{{User:YoshiFlutterJump/sig}} 02:45, 20 January 2018 (EST)

:::::::::Thank You YoshiFlutterJump. also i Did do Show Preview, i Tried to undo it While adding that comment calling out to Doc. i Don't Know How But The Page saved the parts When i Jokingly Removed The Votes. Won't happen again. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]]
==Calling Out Users in Edit Summaries==
Please do not [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Stage_6-1&curid=246090&action=history call me out] or other users in your edit summaries. Edit summaries are, again, used for stating the changes you make to a page or when creating a page, not for calling out specific users. <s>If this continues, you will receive a {{tem|lastwarn}} and eventually get blocked.</s> If you have a problem with my vote on a proposal, then talk it over with me instead of doing what you did. {{User:LuigiMaster123/sig}} 17:16, 7 February 2018 (EST)
:Sorry LuigiMaster. [[User|LUIGIRULES71]]
{{lastwarn}}
No, this is no excuse after you've been reminded ''multiple'' times to stop misusing summaries and calling out other users in them. You've already been told by LuigiMaster123 twice to knock it off (and [[#Reminder|earlier than that]] you called out Mister Wu for ''no reason at all''), yet you continued to do so anyway. You can't hold a grudge over another user simply because they have a different opinion than you; in proposals, there are bound to be users that don't see eye to eye with you, which is something you need to get used to. Please review the [[MarioWiki:Courtesy|courtesy policy]] (specifically the parts about summaries and forgoing the use of proper grammar in communication) as well as your talk page messages. If this keeps up, you will receive a ban. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 18:11, 7 February 2018 (EST)
:Just try to keep it under control in the future, okay? We know you have no ill intentions, but even that is no excuse for not being blocked at all. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 15:33, 8 February 2018 (EST)
Now i'm Really Sad... [[User:LUIGIRULES71]] :(

== Re: Talk ==
What have you got in mind? {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 12:14, 10 February 2018 (EST)
:Sorry it Took So Long To Reply, i Was on YouTube. anyway i'm Just Really Sad i'm on My Last Warning. i Just Don't Think i Deserved The First one Because it Was an accident. The Second one i Kinda Deserved But it Wasn't Terribly Bad, Plus, i Got anger issues and i miss The Monita Page. it Just makes me Disappointed at myself and sad Because it Feels Like i Didn't Deserve it and i Know i Can Do Better. if any admin sees This and thinks "He's complaining too much about him having warnings so we'll block him" Don't, i'm Sorry i Don't mean To Come Off as Complaining i'm Just Sad. i also Don't Wanna Get Blocked Before i Finish The Donkey Kong Game Boy Levels. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 22:07, 13 February 2018 (EST)
::Sorry for my own late response. Having anger issues is perfectly normal. Whenever it's about to happen, just log off before it gets out of hand and wait until you've calmed down. I've dealt with plenty of contentious situations myself, such as [[Talk:Mega Mole#Split Morty Mole from Mega Mole (again)|this one]] (which, by the way, is ongoing '''''and''''' annoyingly complicated to consensually envision a workable solution). If you need help, just contact me or an admin and we'll give you whatever help you need. Just...keep the call-outs to a minimum, okay?
P.S.: Even if the Monita page is "deleted", it surely should now be a redirect to ''[[Nintendo Land]]'' and the history should still be preserved; if not, I'll contact an admin to restore it.
Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 23:13, 17 February 2018 (EST)
:Also, since I'm here, are you considering creating articles for the ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' levels, since they're near identical to ''[[Donkey Kong]]''{{'}}s platforming? {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 23:33, 17 February 2018 (EST)
::Thank You For Making Me Feel Better. Though For The ''[[Mario vs Donkey Kong]]'' levels, i Think i'll Have More Trouble With Them, Yes They are identical But With ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' is More Like: You, Section 1, GO! Compared To MVDK Which is More Like: You, Section 1 With The [[Key]], Section 2 With The Mini-Marios, GO! Their Longer and i Have Trouble Sometimes Trying To Get The Full Levels Of Donkey Kong (Game Boy) Because Slimkirby (The Guy i'm Watching) Sometimes Doesn't show how to get to some sections of a Level. i Don't Even Own a Game Boy Cartridge Donkey Kong (Game Boy) i Have To Watch Videos To see how to Complete stages. Before You Say Download it on the 3DS, i Can't mine is Broken So That's not an Choice. The Only Game Boy Cartridge i Own is ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. i'm only going do The Game Boy Levels since their easier, Plus my Writing is Horrible! (Or Could Be Better.) i've made many mistakes But i'm trying my Best. so i'm sticking With The 94 Levels. also The Morty Mole Thing, i'm More on Board The Split since They act and Look Totally Different With a Different name Too. Whew This is Long. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 12:00, 23 February 2018 (EST)
::If you want video playthroughs of ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'', I suggest [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qje6DOCa-8 this video] (and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b40d7tWZGqo this video] for the Plus Mode levels as well as [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjrheYnuB4U this video] for the [[Expert Levels]]). There's also some content from the world articles that you can check before creating the articles, and even if it's challenging, I admit that I've dealt with challenging projects before (creating all of the non-Remix 10 ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' levels took quite long!). Obviously not saying you ''have'' to do it, just saying that I think you'd be good at helping create them. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 15:37, 27 February 2018 (EST)
:::OK Thanks. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 20:40, 27 February 2018 (EST)
== RE: Bleep ==
For censoring, {{wp|Bleep censor|bleep}} is the correct word. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 19:04, 24 February 2018 (EST)
:Oh...Thanks You For Telling Me. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 19:07, 24 February 2018 (EST)
== Some pointers ==
A few more things:
*There's no need to capitalise common nouns like "Key", "Crouch" and "Jump" (linking them as <code><nowiki>[[jump]]</nowiki></code> still works).
*Try to avoid using words like "get" as in "get through" or "get past"; instead, try to use a more professional substitute like "pass through".
*Avoid contractions as much as possible like "that's" or "there's", which should be written in their long forms ("that is", "there is").
*"Mess up" is colloquial (often used in informal conversations), so please avoid informal phrases like that.
*Please recall what I said regarding {{wp|run-on sentence}}s and sentence structure in general.
If you're going to continue creating level articles, these are important things to remember. We're happy to correct any mistakes, but it's encouraged that you know these corrections yourself (and if you have any problems, don't be afraid to ask around). I highly suggest you to look over other [[:Category:Levels|level articles]] (and maybe your previous articles, which have since been revised) as examples. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 02:12, 8 March 2018 (EST)
:Additionally, [[#Your edit summary|and I told this to you already]], please avoid putting real life situations in your edit summary like you did [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Stage_6-7&oldid=2404835 here]. You can do this for your userspace articles, but for mainspace articles, it is unnecessary. I'm sorry for your loss, though. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 10:55, 8 March 2018 (EST)
::Also, to add to Mario jc's fourth point, in the place of "mess up", you can usually use "fail" (such as "if Mario fails to reach the platform in time") to tone down the colloquialism. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 16:39, 8 March 2018 (EST)
:::Thank You Mario JC, Alex and Toadette the Achiever. i'll Use The advice To Make Better Pages and My Uncle is in a Better Place and i'm Happy For Him. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 23:09, 13 March 2018 (EDT)
== Oh Goodness... ==
Oh Goodness it's april Fools' Day...OK...it's a Time Where i DON'T TRUST ANYBODY! Even PorpleMontage could tell me something But i Wouldn't trust him on aril 1st! Oh it's also Easter so Happy Easter. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 23:59, 1 April 2018 (EDT)
== You keep using that word ==
[https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Attractive_Male_Kremling&curid=251174&diff=2426954&oldid=2426952 Your abuse of the word isn't charming, especially when an explicative is completely unnecessary]. "Bloody" isn't a catch-all term for whatever you feel like, it's a genuinely crass term. It's not something that you use to describe other users, nor when you're saying hello to someone for the first time. Knock it off. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 22:37, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:But i'm Just speaking australian. :\ [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 22:45, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
::"Australian" isn't a language. In Australia, "bloody" is an unkind word, and in Britain, it has historically been outright vulgar. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 22:49, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
::Really, you're not, and even then, that doesn't excuse you using the word at all. A word that's common in Australian parlance does not instantly mean that you have the right to use it without any meaning on a site whose main audience isn't from Australian. Also, that completely loses context when you aren't even Australian. In short, you are being discourteous. Stop. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 22:52, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:::To Doc: Oh. Why Did Nobody Tell Me this fact about "Bloody" Eariler? [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 22:56, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
::::i'm not Trying To Be Rude Or Discourteous. i'm Just Trying To Being Funny... [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 22:59, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:::::We tried to get you to stop using it [[#Bloody_overuse_of_the_word_.22bloody.22|two]] [[#Your_edit_summary|times]] already. Additionally, regarding the user talk page that you created, it's best to wait until after they've made an edit before trying to converse with them. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 23:00, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:::::Side note: do not use words when you do not know what they mean. Doing this a bad idea. Also, doing things for the sole purpose of being funny isn't particularly productive when you're the only person that's laughing. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 23:01, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:::::::To alex: Oh, Well The First Time When Doc Said something about it, Doc Was Either To Me, Just asking Why i Use it alot or not Being clear enough. The Second Time though i Did Forget. as For The creating the talk page, i Didn't Know, Won't Happen again. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 23:09, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
::::::::I used the word "overuse" to describe what you do. That should, at the very least, be a yellow flag, if not quite red. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 23:12, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
:::::::::Oh, Well i Didn't Know. [[User:LUIGIRULES71|LUIGIRULES71]] ([[User talk:LUIGIRULES71|talk]]) 23:19, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
::::::::::also To Time Turner, not Trying to sound Pushy or say anything Wrong But The Way You Said "Knock it off" sounded a Bit Rude To Me...i'm Not saying You are Rude Or Were Trying To Be Rude Or Mean and i'm sorry if You think i'm making you sound rude But it Just seemed a Little Rude To Me...
