Game titles[edit]

Hello, please avoid abbreviating game titles to its initials. If necessary (like to fit it in a small space, for example), it's more formal to abbreviate it as words than letters (like just "Thousand-Year Door"). Rosalina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:09, May 31, 2023 (EDT)

Okay, duly noted! Thank you for the pointers! --Gonzool (talk · edits) 10:44, May 31, 2023 (EDT)

Also, "Paper Mario 64" is an unofficial name and should just be "Paper Mario". Rosalina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 21:51, June 11, 2023 (EDT)

Oh, right. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks, Mario JC! --Gonzool (talk · edits) 22:16, June 11, 2023 (EDT)

Work on Paper Mario move pages[edit]

Hi Gonzool, first of all I would like to say I appreciate the edits you've been making to the Paper Mario pages, I've also joined two weeks ago with the same goal. I will note that we have different quirks in writing, for example unlike you, I don't capitalize "Attack Power" or "Action Commands", but I will going forward because I believe you are correct in this. One thing I think we're both doing wrong is that we tend to write out small numbers as "1" instead of "one", but it's more formal to write them down with letters. Also I know the wiki often calls a Partner's original Rank "Initial Rank", but in practice, I've never seen it being referred so. So I would encourage it being labeled "Base Rank" if possible. If you think there's something else I should think about in my revisions let me know. Also, if you're interested in working on more Paper Mario-related pages past the partners ones and status effects, message me on Discord if possible (see my User Page) so we can coordinate better down the line, since that'd be more convenient than talk pages. -Paper Enthusiast (talk) 18:01, June 6, 2023 (EDT)
