==huh!==
It was legal to archive it, huh?!
--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 14:16, 27 February 2013 (EST)

If it is I will (after it reach 225 edits) split the 3 archives as each 75 ok?--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 14:19, 27 February 2013 (EST)

:No, you should have asked first and let us do it rather than assuming it was okay for just anyone to archive important pages like this. And no, you will not be changing around any of the archives: once the content is moved, it is protected and left untouched and intact with its history. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 21:30, 27 February 2013 (EST)

==How do i add a box at the start of the page?==

What i mean is adding a box Like a "Conjectural" or a "Under Construction" Boxes found at the start of a site? (A WikiGuest)
:Those are templates. You get them by writing something like this

<nowiki>{{construction}}</nowiki>

{{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}} 22:51, 10 March 2013 (EDT)

Wow you answer Quick! (A WikiGuest)
::Thank you! A full list of templates are found [[Help:Template|here]] {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

== Question ==

I want to archive my talkpage, but I do not know how. How do I archive my talkpage??? {{User:Iggy Koopa Jr/sig}} 04:23, 19 May 2013 (EDT)

#Open your talk page.
#Click the move button (next to history and + and edit) at the top of the page.

== PNG and JPG ==
I'm totally confused on replacing jpg with png and related things.. so In short I need to ask.. Is [http://images.wikia.com/nintendo/en/images/2/24/Mario_Artwork_-_Mario_Hoops_3-on-3.png this png artwork] is good enough to be uploaded and to replace [http://www.mariowiki.com/images/a/ae/MH3on3_Mario.jpg This jpg artwork]. Please explain either yes, or no.--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 02:08, 31 May 2013 (EDT)

:No, they shouldn't. The png artwork you uploaded have pixelated, unofficial transparency. And I also suspect that they are source-jpgs, meaning that they are still jpgs, just in the png format. So no, unless the artwork has official transparency or are better quality, source pngs, they shouldn't replace jpgs.

==How do I make some profile art?==
I really don't know how to make some of that profile art like what most users have. Can anyone tell me how to do it?--[[User:Mariobro101|Mariobro101]] ([[User talk:Mariobro101|talk]]) 15:05, 18 June 2013 (EDT)
:You could do that by using many programs: like photoshop or GIMP. all you need to do is find a character you like very much, download it and modify it as you like.. I could help you if you give me the character's name and modification you would like to do.--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 06:11, 19 June 2013 (EDT)
My username is FireWario. All I want is an icon like the ones used in the ''Fake News'' section of [[The 'Shroom]]. Oh, and make sure it matches my profile image! I don't wanna see any incongruity! I want it to compliment my pic, not contrast it! --{{User:FireWario/sig}} 17:21, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

== Smileys ==

How do I put smileys on MarioWiki pages? I tried some in the [[MarioWiki:Sandbox|Sandbox]], and it wouldn't work! What the heck am I supposed to do? --{{User:FireWario/sig}} 18:05, 25 June 2013 (EDT)
:What do you mean with smileys? there is no smileys on the wiki, but there is on the forum. and do you mean like http://forum.mariowiki.com/Smileys/default/wink.gif ?--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 19:00, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

::Yeah, just paste the URL of smileys which exist elsewhere: there's no specific coding to put them on pages here. Although, you might want to check out the ones at [[Help:Chat#Smilies]].

:Try hitting Random Page, and just looking for mistakes, that's how I make a lot of my edits. {{User|Yoshi876}}

== I'm new. What should I edit? ==

It says that You have to make five edits to become a User. What should I edit? [[luig99]]
:Anything hit Random Page, and see what errors you can find on a page so you can fix them. {{User|Yoshi876}}
::That was Fast! Thanks for the advice! [[luig99]]
::No problem :) Also remember you have to wait a certain amount of days (can't remember the number as well). {{User|Yoshi876}}

== Signatures ==

How do you put pictures or animations on a signature? --[[User:Rwarsrwars|RWARS!  ...Oh did i scare you?]] ([[User talk:Rwarsrwars|talk]]) 22:58, 21 July 2013 (EDT)
:Just link them using <nowiki>[[File:image name.ext]]</nowiki> and adjust the size like this <nowiki>[[File:image name.ext|Xpx]]</nowiki> where X is a value such as 200. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 00:06, 22 July 2013 (EDT)
::You can also use something like <nowiki>[[File:image name.ext|x35px]]</nowiki>, with the first x making the number pertain to the image's height (just saying "35px" would make it 35px wide, while "x35px" makes it 35px tall). I use 35px as the example because that's as tall as you're allowed to get with signature images; you're also only allowed two static images or one animated image. [[MarioWiki:Signatures]] and [[Help:Signature]] have more info about signature regulations and setup. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 00:41, 22 July 2013 (EDT)

:::And the same question is answered only a few sections above. {{User|Yoshi876}}

== Removal of opposes? ==

Is there is a possibility of making a removal of opposes section in proposals?--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 16:27, 4 October 2013 (EDT)
:Unnecessary and messy. Just point out if a vote's bad in the comments and hopefully the voter will check back in and do something about it (as outlined in Rule 5). Most people will cast their votes according to sound reasoning anyway and a proposal will pass or fail based on its true merits, so it's not something to worry about. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 18:21, 4 October 2013 (EDT)

== Adding signatures for different days ==

So, I've noticed people signatures change during Christmas and Halloween and other things like that. Do they just change it themselves, or is there a special coding and/or page they used to change it? {{User:Stargazing/sig}} 21:43, 28 August 2014 (EDT)

They don't change the sig or there is no code. They put the sig on the page. If you don't get it' they put the pictures' links' etc. on the page without a page. I may not be a patroller' sysop' etc. but I do know some stuff. {{User:Joseph/sig}}
:They ''do'' change the signature code. Check out my sister's signature. [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User:Baby_Luigi/sig&diff=903909&oldid=866780 This revision] is her old signature during the holidays. I also have a holiday-specific [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User:Mario/sig&diff=1589273&oldid=1580261 signature] (images have long been reuploaded). You can't create multiple sig pages, but just edit your own sig page! You can use holiday-specific signatures, and it's easy to revert once the holidays are over. Anyway, I hope this helps. {{User:Mario/sig}} 21:12, 7 September 2014 (EDT)
::Also, I feel like Joseph's suggestion sounds like it's advising something that's actually against the rules, so to be clear, you're not ever supposed to put sig coding (links, image links, colours, etc.) directly on talk pages and whatnot: you ''need'' to go through the sig subpage, so as not to clutter everything with raw coding. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 22:47, 7 September 2014 (EDT)

But some people do. {{User:Joseph/sig}}
:Well they're not ''supposed'' to, and techncially, any raw-coding sigs can be stripped down to a basic link or {{tem|User}}, as per [[MarioWiki:Signatures|MW:SIG Rule 3]]. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 21:54, 8 September 2014 (EDT)

Ah, I just saw these. Thanks for the help, although I may be a bit confused, since I'm not good with coding in the first place (which is probably why Brawl still isn't hacked). I'll play around with it. {{User:Stargazing/sig}} 18:40, 24 September 2014 (EDT)

== Custom Welcome Templates ==

Are they still allowed? Just wondering. {{User:Randombob-omb4761/sig}}
:Nope, and if they are created they need to be deleted. The only reason the old ones are still around is so it doesn't mess up coding on the pages that used them. {{User|Yoshi876}}

== Policy for gallery labels? (And how to avoid an edit war) ==

It looks like most of the galleries here have their images labeled with the character's in-game name. But for the past month or so, there's been a user (without an account, editing under IPs from 69.35.200.xxx to 69.35.203.xxx) who's been going around to lots of galleries and changing the displayed names to the exact name of the character's Wiki article (e.g, in [[Gallery:Mario Kart 8]], changing "Peach" to "Princess Peach" and "Wendy" to "Wendy O. Koopa").

This seems like a bad idea: a gallery for a game should show the names from that game. A lot of these changes have been reverted, but IP-Person just comes back a few days later and makes the changes again. (See [[Gallery:Mario Golf: World Tour]]'s recent history for a good example.) What should be done in a situation like this?  -- [[User:Steve470|Steve470]] ([[User talk:Steve470|talk]]) 06:19, 17 March 2015 (EDT)

== Tabber Extension ==

I'd like to have the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Tabber Tabber] extension installed on this Wiki. This extension allows for the insert of tabbed sections on a page and the tabs can contain any valid wiki data (links, images, templates, etc), meaning that lots of text can be organized into smaller sections, thus pages wouldn't be as long to scroll through. This extension would be especially useful for some of the major articles, or enemy bestiaries that contain lots of information that require more than one table. If we can have Tabber installed here, that'd be great. --[[User:Zootalo|Zootalo]] ([[User talk:Zootalo|talk]]) 12:47, 5 May 2015 (EDT)

:Personally, I hate the tab functions and think the wiki is much better off without them, but {{user|Porplemontage}} has the final say when it comes to extensions. He usually doesn't install new things unless there's a really good reason to, however, since they can negatively affect the database (i.e. if they have glitches, or as they become outdated incompatible with upgrades, etc.). He'd know better than me, of course, but I feel like this idea is not gonna fly. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 15:15, 5 May 2015 (EDT)

== Splitting lists into separate pages ==

Not sure if it's already mentioned here, but are we allowed to split long lists into separate pages? My [[List of enemy formations in Paper Mario|enemy]] [[List of enemy formations in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|formation]] lists for [[Paper Mario]] and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|its sequel]] include pictures and I originally had things on a single page, but decided to split them off in separate pages per chapter because the pages were getting very long. I also wanted to know if splitting bestiaries [[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars bestiary|with lots]] [[Paper Mario|of enemy stats]] into separate pages would be acceptable as well (as they had to be split off into separate tables). --[[User:Zootalo|Zootalo]] ([[User talk:Zootalo|talk]]) 20:02, 30 June 2015 (EDT)

:I'd say keep the bestiaries together, and actually, we're not supposed to use subpages anymore, so what you've done with the enemy pages is [[MarioWiki:Subpages|breaking policy]], technically. I suggest simply removing all the repetitive images and just keep all the formations in one list. It's not like we really need to see the exact same Goomba sprite [[List_of_enemy_formations_in_Paper_Mario/Prologue-Toad_Town#Goomba_Village_and_Goomba_Road|17 times in a single section]], and frankly, for single-character battles like Jr. Troopa in that section, it looks silly to have the sprite twice, or to have things like The Master getting three lines further down. Stuff like the two 2-party Goomba formations in "Goomba Road, first area" could also be summarized with "x 2", or with another column to say how many times a given formation appears. It might be worth keeping the "Enemy on Field" images since that's what players need to look out for, and to add ''some'' bling, but not the in-battle extras. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 20:38, 30 June 2015 (EDT)

== Question about writing style of Japanese Meaning section ==

I am now back from 2 weeks of blocking because of not obeying JapR writing Policy. <br>Now I get how Users should write JapR section, but I still do not get how to write JapMs. The fact is some Users extremely detest colloquial translations like [[Rope_o_Nobotte_Athletic!|this]], as they try to undo my those loose translations immediately. <br>When I edit JapM, "I mostly try to insert loose translation like fun newspapers, not too literal", and "When there is a need to refer to a Japanese word like [[Watt|this]] or [[Nintendo|this]], I write the original word in ''italic'' only if the Japanese is short enough and I add Japanese text if it is not short or a phrase".<br>So, could someone tell me where can I find the guideline or the Policy about JapM texting style? If there isn't such a page, could someone answer it how? If possible, I request answers from native Japanese Users.
[[User:Goolgenerade|Goolgenerade]] ([[User talk:Goolgenerade|talk]]) 03:56, 26 October 2015 (EDT)

:It's not just Japanese, it's ''all'' languages that require direct, ''accurate'' translations: being loose and "fun" is actually misleading a lot of the time, since the names aren't actually saying what you said they are. In many cases, the direct translation can just be provided, but in other cases, explanations ''are'' needed, like to explain corruptions breaking from actual words (like your Watt example), stuff requiring context (like if it's a pun, if it's from a saying, or is otherwise a cultural reference, like the Nintendo example), things with multi-layered or significantly different possible meanings (again, each of Nintendo's kanji have a lot of implications in addition to the overall "leave luck to heaven" stuff, so it's useful to walk readers through it), or onomatopoeic names that ''can't'' translate directly. In the latter case, things like ''[[Doki Doki Panic]]'' get translated as "Heart-pounding Panic" even though a direct translation would be "Lub-dub Panic" -  but the latter is very awkward sounding and loses the feel of the original name, so instead, the former is provided, with an explanation that ''doki doki'' represents the sound of a rapidly beating heart, so that the readers aren't being mislead into thinking that "doki doki" ''literally'' means "heart-pounding", but still get the sense of urgency/tenseness that the Japanese name's conveying. There's no policy page on how to use {{tem|foreignname}} properly yet, but now that we actually are starting to see more and more non-English names added, perhaps that's something we should be looking into, or at least expanding the instructions on the template page itself. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 13:16, 26 October 2015 (EDT)

== How is a brand new table created? ==

I am interested in helping here on the tables of "Names in other languages". Some enemies have Portuguese translations that are not on their respective pages and I'd like to help, since I speak Portuguese, so I play Mario games in that language.
I am most interested on the translation of Shiny RoboBowser, since I have it.
So, how is a table CREATED and not edited? {{unsigned|188.98.49.198}}
:Until you have an autoconfirmed account ([[MarioWiki:Autoconfirmed Users|more info]]), you can't create a template.

::You don't actually need to make a new template, just add the preexisting {{tem|foreignname}} template to the page, along with new inputs.

::{|
|<pre>
==Names in other languages==
{{foreignname
|PorE=
|PorEM=
}}
</pre>
|}
::And then just fill in the new name and its translation after the = signs. In general, the easiest way to figure out how to add things like templates is to look at what other pages have done, and then just copy them. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 16:53, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Projects means a lot of things because they're heavily dependent on the people working on them and what they want to improve, but generally, they're a focused effort to improve several aspects on the wiki. For example, I'm currently working on a project to make Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time more complete, and it would be discourteous if you swooped in and added what I was about to add to the article first without consulting me. Or, if I was in the middle of uploading sprites and you just added it to the article for me before I can save my edits. All of this is dependent on the situation at hand, so that rule generally applies on a case-by-case basis. Like, you uploaded different versions of the Elder Shrooboid, but I don't consider that edit-sniping at all. Some people like working alone, others wouldn't mind if some people helped out without them notifying; in this case, it never hurts to ask the people working on the project if they want to help out. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 16:30, 3 May 2016 (EDT)

== No bureaucrats? ==

Couple of days ago, I've decided to chage my username from Nabz to Koopas lost shell but the username change still hasn't been decided if it would be accepted or not. Is there any explanation? Nabz (no userpage yet)
:It sometimes will take time for a bureaucrat to get online and find that your name wants to be changed and we're down to [[User:Glowsquid|one bureaucrat]] because [[User:Walkazo|the other]] sadly passed away. {{User:Fawful's Minion/sig}} 15:36, 3 August 2016 (EDT)

== How do I change my password? ==
Yeah, what the question asks. Thanks. 12:37 (CT) [[User:The_Gamer_91|The Gamer91]], to [[User talk: The_Gamer_91|talk]] with me.
