If you've played ''Donkey Kong'' on the Game Boy, there are some [[Template:DK|level articles]] in need of creation. There are also a few [[Template: | If you've played ''Donkey Kong'' on the Game Boy, there are some [[Template:DK|level articles]] in need of creation. There are also a few [[Template:Kingdom|''Mario Odyssey'' locations]] missing. [[Special:WantedPages]] usually lists articles with many red links that haven't been created yet, but the best way to starting finding articles to help with is to find articles about games you know well. You can try looking on the game page of a specific game then branch out from there. | ||
As for formatting tips, one thing you might do often is piping links (changing the display text of a link): for example, <code><nowiki>[[Mario|Luigi's brother]]</nowiki></code> which becomes [[Mario|Luigi's brother]] (that is <code><nowiki>[[Article name|Display text]]</nowiki></code>). We generally do this for articles with parenthesised identifiers like [[Mario Kart (series)]] (<code><nowiki>''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]''</nowiki></code> which becomes ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' - the "(series)" part should be hidden). In these cases, one helpful shortcut is simply typing <code><nowiki>''[[Mario Kart (series)|]]''</nowiki></code> (with the vertical bar at the end), which saves time and produces the same result after you've saved the edit (though this won't work in gallery captions). This is also nifty when creating interwiki links like <code><nowiki>''[[wikirby:Kirby's Return to Dream Land|]]''</nowiki></code> (this hides the "wikirby:" part in the link text). Speaking of, you can find prefixes for other wikis on [[Special:Interwiki]]. | As for formatting tips, one thing you might do often is piping links (changing the display text of a link): for example, <code><nowiki>[[Mario|Luigi's brother]]</nowiki></code> which becomes [[Mario|Luigi's brother]] (that is <code><nowiki>[[Article name|Display text]]</nowiki></code>).

First, let me say that it's great that you have such a keen interest in ''The 'Shroom,'' enough even that you're interested in the schedule for the year. We ''will'' indeed be implementing some of Ninja Squid's suggestions from his campaign, and we have him working closely with us to do that. At the present time, we have no plans to make an issue themed around ''Luigi's Mansion'' a part of this year's schedule, but users have in the past drawn inspiration from it and themed their sections around it during October and they are free to do so this year. We ''will'' be incorporating some celebrations of the 15th anniversary of ''The 'Shroom'' in October, but we don't want to dilute that theme by trying to have a second theme on top of it. As for the Killing Game, I wouldn't mind seeing another one happen and I wouldn't discount that possibility, but there are no plans for more at this time. However, we will be running, in February's issue, a Feedback Survey centered around activities and games that users would like to see in the future. Please be sure to vote in that and express your hope for another Killing Game in the poll, as the results of the survey will inform our efforts to put together more activities in the coming year.
