The system is good, but whatever we decide, we need to get a system and lock it in. As of right now, rules governing FAs have been all over the place. {{User:Phoenix Rider/sig}} | The system is good, but whatever we decide, we need to get a system and lock it in.

===Super Mario Sunshine "Secret" Areas=== | |||
<span style="color:red;font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:150%">KEEP 2-5</span> | |||
Pages such as [[The Shell]] have been created as pages in their own right. I don't think that they are special enough to be credited in their own right simply because they are "Secret" areas. Besides, you actually need them to finish the game. I'm a little put off by the existence of [[PipeProject: Levels]], however, because they are technically levels. | |||

====Delete them==== | |||
#{{User:Phoenix Rider/sig}} - As above. | |||
# {{User:Xzelion/Signature}} Per Phoenix Rider | |||
====Keep them==== | |||
#[[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] - For now, I am saying keep, because these levels appear to be officially named ([[The Shell]] article does not have the conjecture tag). As an officially named sub-area, these should be given their own articles. Also, sub-levels such as [[the Princess' Secret Slide]] and [[the Secret Aquarium]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' have their own articles. | |||
#{{User:Plumber/Pignature}} Why would we delete stage articles? They have every right to deserve articles. | |||
#[[User:Walkazo|Walkazo]] - I don't see why they should be deleted, they're actual levels after all, and the whole point of ''Super Mario Wiki'' is to get as much ''Mario'' information available to people as possible, including stuff on all the tiny little levels, sub-areas and worlds of the ''Mario'' series. Since it takes slightly more effort to get to Secret Areas, it makes sence to give them articles seperate from the main areas they're found in. For now, anyway. | |||

====Comments==== | |||
[[User:Walkazo|Walkazo]] - [[The Shell]] is a place, and while the corresponding mission is calles "The Shell's Secret", it's not actually a "Secret Level", which is what I think all the confusion is about here. And while we're on the subject of [[Super Mario Sunshine]] places, I think there should '''be''' a category for ''Super Mario Sunshine Places''. That way the sub-areas and the normal areas can be viewed along side each other. | |||

===Unused Image Deadline=== | |||
<span style="color:green;font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:150%">ALLOW MORE TIME 9-0</span> | |||
Recently, a user uploaded an image at 23:07, 29 August 2007. Said image was marked for deletion as an unused image at 23:13, 29 August 2007, '''six minutes later'''. While I believe the tag was placed there in good faith, it was still a case of jumping the gun. | |||
A while back, I made a note that an image should be used as soon as it is uploaded and was backed by Wayoshi. Now, however, I feel that I was a bit to hasty. I'm seeing more and more images that are being marked for deletion as unused images very shortly after said images where uploaded. I know from experience (as do a great many of you) that sometimes dropping images into articles doesn't always work out, for various reasons (a bit of wikicode is malformed, said images looks like crap in chosen placement, etc.). For these reasons, I'm thinking we should extend the limit a bit. Lets say one day for personal images and 12 hours for everything else. What say you all? | |||

====Allow More Time==== | |||
#{{User:Wayoshi/sig}} – reasonable time limit, though I feel if a bit of investigation were done to the contribs of the uploader, less issues would come up, as we may discover errors in wikisyntax. Btw, I may be able to list all such images in DPL, not sure | |||
#{{User:Max2/sig}} seems fair. | |||
#{{User:Cobold/sig}} - I argued on this already, it's needed especially when a used image gets removed from a page. We don't know who removed the image, and if everyone agreed to do so. | |||
#{{User:Pokemon DP/sig}} - I Agree with every single word being spoken on this. | |||
#{{User:Purple Yoshi/sig}}-They need more time. Besides, they might find a way to put it in. This has happened to me before. | |||
#{{User:Jaffffey/sig}} - It should be left more time, he probally was starting to use it, then got sidetracked. | |||
#http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back!]]''' http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif Half-an-hour is fair. Six minutes is not. | |||
#{{User:Phoenix Rider/sig}} - It's rather unreasonable to delete an image right away if they see it hasn't been used for a couple hours, for example. I'd say give at least a day. | |||
#{{User:Master Crash/sig}} what pj said. | |||
====Delete Right Away==== | |||
====Comments==== | |||
*Well, seeing as this is now a proposal, I'd like to note that this, as a guideline, would govern people who mark images more than the uploaders. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]][[User:Ghost Jam|Chris]][[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 20:35, 30 August 2007 (EDT) | |||
