[[:File:MPA Luigi Artwork.jpg]], I'm not expecting to get that replaced any time soon. My main concern is screenshots/sprites/3Drenders because we can get those fixed at any time. Again, nice work. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 22:07, 24 February 2017 (EST) | ||

Could you skip through them to see if any of them have any them have any screenshots that look prerelease (from non-final version/s)? Or maybe let me borrow your Prima account | Could you skip through them to see if any of them have any them have any screenshots that look prerelease (from non-final version/s)? Or maybe let me borrow your Prima account :P. Its because the digital 3D World guide has some prerelease screenshots on one of the preview pages, but I didn't want to buy it just to look at the other pages (and the publicly-available URLs for the images don't seem to follow a patter). --[[User:Hiccup|Hiccup]] ([[User talk:Hiccup|talk]]) 09:34, 8 July 2017 (EDT) | ||
:I was more thinking of screenshots.

I've got the screenshots I know to be prerelease from the [https://www.primagames.com/games/super-mario-3d-world/guides/super-mario-3d-world-eguide eGuide preview], so I may not need any more, if the eGuide is the same as the physical guide.

To make things easier, why not just upload all the MIDI to OGG audio at once for [[List of Mario's Time Machine media]]? That's what I did for various [[SNES]] games (which was my experimental phase of using {{tem|media table}} and {{tem|main-media}}). Now other users have a library to reference from and link to specific audio files, for use on other articles, such as for levels, objects, and other things. For example, [[List of Super Mario World media]] used the [[P Switch]] music, so I linked the [[:File:SMW Switch BGM.oga|audio file]] in both those articles. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 14:56, 13 August 2017 (EDT) | To make things easier, why not just upload all the MIDI to OGG audio at once for [[List of Mario's Time Machine media]]?

:OK, kind of late now, but for anything else with zero media uploads. Like say for [[List of Mario is Missing! media]], upload the MIDIs for that PC/DOS game at once. This is where the redlink trick really shines when using {{tem|media table}}. I middle-wheel-click the redlink, which opens a new tab or window (based on browser preferences). You can expand the trick even further if you use [[Wikipedia:Notepad++|Notepad++]] and understand [[Wikipedia:Regular expression|RegEx]] and [[Wikipedia:Command-line interface|Windows CMD]]. Once I got CMD looking at the folder containing the music tracks, I used the command <code>dir /B > list.txt</code>, which instead of outputting to the CMD window, it outputs a text file in the same directory as the folder being used in CMD. That's how I created so many list pages within a few days. My method really removed a lot of tedium. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 19:48, 13 August 2017 (EDT) | |||
::Are there templates for other things found in [[Special:Interwiki]], aside from Wikipedia and {{tem|wp}}, especially [[NIWA]]-related things? I find it inconsistent if Wikipedia is the only [[Special:Log/interwiki|Interwiki link]] getting a template associated with it. We also have {{tem|wikipedia}}. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:07, 14 August 2017 (EDT) | |||
:::I find value in {{tem|wikipedia}}, because it's a little bit more eye-catching than {{tem|wp}}, kind of like {{tem|NIWA}}. If you feel that {{tem|wikipedia}} should be discontinued/[[:Category:Abandoned features|abandoned]]/[[Special:Log/delete|deleted]], propose it. Also, keep in mind [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Wikipedia|where it is transcluded]]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:18, 14 August 2017 (EDT) | |||

I don't know if there's a better quality version, as the only areas I saw this was on a merchandise box, but as of now, I don't think this quality is acceptable enough to not be tagged with it. Also, I'm not even the current uploader, I just reverted it to an earlier revision. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 19:53, 12 July 2017 (EDT) | I don't know if there's a better quality version, as the only areas I saw this was on a merchandise box, but as of now, I don't think this quality is acceptable enough to not be tagged with it.

:One thing that makes this replacement harder is not knowing where the image came from. The closest match is [[:File:Wario and Waluigi - MKDD.png]], which makes me think that [[:File:Brute.jpg|the upload]] is derivative work. I can't find the picture in the MKDS instruction manual, but I checked MKDD instruction manual. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 14:46, 18 July 2017 (EDT) | :One thing that makes this replacement harder is not knowing where the image came from.

I just dropped in to ask you if you could please add page numbers to the DKCTF articles. [[:Category:Articles with sources lacking page numbers|Here they are]].

:Thank you for adding page numbers and also for the quick lesson. I know I needed it because I was pretty confused with categories, but was never interested in reading a related guideline.

== RE: Trivia == | |||
I take your point, and obviously no, that's more a trivia point. However, in the case of Snowman Doll, I feel the first point was fine in the introduction of the article. Reading it, for me, it didn't feel tacked on. {{User|Yoshi876}} | |||
