== [[User:SuperLuigi821/Archive 1|SuperLuigi821/Archive 1]] ==

Now this is mystic. {{User:Smiddle/sig}} 15:50, 18 May 2007 (EDT)

== Coding problems ==
In the code of the page, I found a spelling mistake. See here:

<nowiki>|'''RW''' || Rewrite || Poorly-written articles (e.g. ridden with grammar mistakes) that need to be fixed, or articles dumped from Wikipedia that need originality here. || <big>Normal: {{#dpl:debug=1|uses=Template:Rewrite¦Rewrite </nowiki>'''adn'''<nowiki> Expansion Requested|ordermethod=lastedit|mode=inline|inlinetext=,&nbsp;|randomcount=2}} <br></nowiki>

On a second thought, is it even correct to write the category name there? Shouldn't there be {{[[Template:rewrite-expand|rewrite-expand]]}} instead? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:07, 29 May 2007 (EDT)
:The coding of the page really needs a serious update. Now, my [[:Image:Brawlanalyzer.PNG|personal image]] was listed as unlicensed, because the new version of the Creative Commons license was not updated here. When is it going to be updated? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:27, 25 July 2007 (EDT)
::When someone decides to semi-protect this page (I just requested it), I'll get to it. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 16:38, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

==SMRPG No Category?==
Why does SMRPG appear in the no category section, despite being in several categories? -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]
:It seems to be a glitch that occasionally happens. We have experienced it before. The article has plenty of categories, but the Maintenance states it has none. Someone has to edit the page, even make a minor edit, in order for Maintenance to state that it has a Category. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}} Don't ask me why that happens.
::No. Probably it had <nowiki>[[Category: Name]] instead of [[Category:Name]]</nowiki>. That space confuses DPL {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 11:22, 15 September 2007 (EDT)

==Welcome Committee==

Who's gonna take over the Welcome Committee since Xzelion retired? {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|Just curious.}}

I think the Welcoming Comittee part is useless, you can still welcome new users even if you are not a part of the comitee, all but 1 of it's member are retired/inactive, and all-around, it's rather pointless. Anyone object removing it? {{user:Blitzwing/sig}}
:I never understood its use. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:10, 27 January 2008 (EST)

:Okay, thanks. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}}

==Change?==
Did the table changed or its just my browser, if so, why? i prefered the other one {{User:Tucayo/sig|AAAAAAAAAA}}
:{{User|RAP}} redesigned the table so that it would load quicker. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 12:25, 6 February 2009 (EST)

== Category ==

Anyone ever notice that when you click on a page thats in the "no categories category", the page always has a category? --{{user|Clay Mario}}
:They may have the same space issue that SMRPG had above. I'll go check. {{User:Dry Paratroopa/sig}}

== Page Protection ==

I think we should protect this page. {{user|Yoshario}}

== Unlicensed images doesn't work. ==

In the unlicensed images section, I got several images which already have a licence tag on them. One time, it was a game screenshot, and another screenshot was from a live-action Super Show segment; both were properly licensed. I think there's something wrong with the code. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 17:35, 19 June 2009 (EDT)
:This has happened to me before. Maybe its our version of DPL. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User talk:Yoshario|Y]]'''oshario'''</font></span>[[Image:Yoshi_wearing_mario's hat.jpg|30px]]

== No Category articles ==

[[Baby Donkey Kong]] and [[Paper Mario (series)]] both appear appear under "No Category", but they do have categories. What's going on? {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:Glitch. Its really old, actually. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 21:24, 11 January 2010 (EST)

==Unlicensed Images & Images without aboutfile==
These two seem to be broken; they are displaying articles instead of images. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with images used in these articles either - I'm guessing it's looking for the aboutfile & license templates in articles rather than file pages and just listing ''any'' of them, as logically, none of them use these templates.--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 19:14, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
:I believe this has to do with the image space rename. I'll check the coding. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 19:52, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
::Yeah, it was that :) --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 19:54, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
:::Yeah, that fixed it, thank you :3--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 23:43, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
::::No prob, I am glad to help --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 01:20, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

==Category?==
I fixed [[Bullet-Proof Software]] and [[Radical Entertainment]] yesterday, but it still shows them as no category.<br>{{User:Young Master Luma/sig}} 08:10, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
:It's most likely the glitch mentioned a few times in some sections above (see Tucayo's reply to FF65) {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 09:50, 5 September 2010 (UTC) EDIT: Wait a minute. When I check it, there are no pages in the NC section. Now ''I'm'' confused!
::Perhaps you just needed to clear your cache to see the changes, that happens sometimes. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 15:07, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

==Unused Images==
I just linked File:MissileBill SMB3.png to the Missile Bill page, yet it is currently still "unused". Can someone fix that, or do I need the Not-unused template placed on the file in question? {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 11:47, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
:It might be a glitch. Wait a while and it will probably disappear from the unused images. That usually happens when I add categories for articles without categories. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
::Yep, that worked. Thanks. {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 13:24, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

New problem: Gamefreak75's Tall Trunk Galaxy images are linked to the galaxy's article, but are listed as unused?! {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 19:20, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Try hitting the refresh button on your browser. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:Nope, still there. {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 19:24, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
::They don't appear unused for me. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:::EDIT: They are in the unused images category, however, the image pages do not say they are unused. This is probably a glitch... Maybe if you wait a while it will go away? I don't know what else to say about it. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
::::Ah. I was wondering if it might be some kind of glitch. It should get fixed eventually. For now, it's just ignore them and wait, I suppose. {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 19:35, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

It seems to be fixed now. --FFY 16:30, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

==Unlicensed Image==
File:SPM_The_Void.png is licensed yet classed as unlicensed. Similar to the problem above, no? Another screwy glitch, perhaps? {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 16:30, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
:Lol, I know this comment was put here 7 months after the previous, but yeah, that part of the page ''does'' seem kinda glitchy...'''all three''' of those supposedly "unlicensed" images I looked at had licensing... {{User:Mariomario64/Sig}} 07:38, 11 May 2011 (EDT)

2257 just edited the DPL so it should be working properly, but being a pessimist, I think it's only a matter of time until it starts breaking up and glitching again. The same propblem seems to be recurring. Maybe it will stop, maybe it won't. {{User:Frostyfireyoshi/sig}} 09:57, 20 July 2011 (EDT)

== Help with Orphaned Pages ==

For the Orphaned pages, most of the pages listed on it are either deleted pages or disambiguation pages. I don't see any way that a page could link to any of these pages. Is there any possible way that we could add a link on a page to any of these deleted or disambiguation pages? --[[User:MimiTheCopycat|<span style="0.5-family:serif;green:#f00">MimiTheCopycat</span>]] 12:39, 23 August 2012 (EDT)

== New problem ==

There are also problems with outdated pages, such as [[Roulette Block]]. Could we make a template to do it? Feel free to vote on this. [[User:Stonehill|Stonehill]] ([[User talk:Stonehill|talk]]) 22:08, 14 April 2014 (EDT)
:I don't understand....how is Roulette Block outdated? {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 22:14, 14 April 2014 (EDT)

== Not One, but Two Problems ==

I'm not sure if these need tags or not, but please tell me if they do. On the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series|Mario and Luigi series]]'' page, similarities between games is very long. Also, on the [[Kongo Bongo Gone Wrongo]] page (what a long, but catchy name), the symptoms section is the lyrics to the song. If the Blorbs had a song, would the symptoms section be like, "''After a few seconds, you will turn into a ball! Along with that, you'll be really fat and tall! The Blorbs, the Blorbs, a horrible malady...''"? Of course not; we're a wiki! So, do you think tags are needed?

== Fuzzies fuzz ==

Hey, on this wiki there are three sprites for [[Fuzzies]] from ''Paper Mario'':
<gallery widths="100px" heights="80px">
File:PM Fuzzy.png|[[:File:PM Fuzzy.png]]
File:PMFuzzy.png|[[:File:PMFuzzy.png]]
File:Fuzzy.gif|[[:File:Fuzzy.gif]]

Anyone know how to clear these up? [[User:Another gossip-loving Toad|Another gossip-loving Toad]] ([[User talk:Another gossip-loving Toad|talk]]) 08:35, 3 April 2015 (EDT)
:I have changed the use of the others into the middle one, [[:File:PMFuzzy.png]]. The other two are not used except here. [[User:Another gossip-loving Toad|Another gossip-loving Toad]] ([[User talk:Another gossip-loving Toad|talk]]) 07:40, 18 April 2015 (EDT)

== Images without {{tem|Aboutfile}} ==

I put together a list of all the files on MW that don't have {{tem|Aboutfile}} on them.

Unfortunately, it has 26659 items on it, and is nearly a megabyte. Would it be useful in any way?  - [[User:Reboot|Reboot]] ([[User talk:Reboot|talk]]) 15:22, 28 July 2015 (EDT)
