== secret codes ==

I did see that note.  perhaps should've made discussion before adding it. on one hand I understand since it just says what buttons to press, but on the other hand a game mentioning a cheat code is also a bit more complicated then just listing controls as of all the other instances (not to mention being hidden and games rarely mention secret codes like that ingame) then theres the instance of the code in Bowser's Inside Story, which is also on the page. True they do mention hearing the 'buttons' being pressed, but it's still essentialy passing secret info meant for the player, and again a bit more special then the usual "press 'this button' to do 'this'.[[User:Pikmin theories|Pikmin theories]] ([[User talk:Pikmin theories|talk]]) 22:15, November 10, 2023 (EST)

===Kloak and Kackle===
In your point of view, Kloak and Kackle were old pirate Kremlings before Kremling Krew? Here many profiles.

*'''Gloomy Gulch in instruction booklet''' (page 30): "''This spooky area is also haunted by the evil Kremling spirits known as Kloak and Kackle.''"
*'''Gloomy Gulch in Player's guide''' (page 20): "''Don't count on meeting another living soul in this dilapidated ghost town, where even the ropes fade in and out of existence like phantoms.''"
*'''Web Woods in German player's guide''' (page 84): "{{hover|''Dieser schrecklich düstere Wald wird sogar von den Kremlingpiraten gemieden.''|This terribly gloomy forest is avoided even by the Kremling pirates.}}"
*'''''Nintendo Power'' vol. 76''' (page 26): "''Keep a watch out for Klobber when he's barreling ahead and the Ghost Pirate who haunts the forest shadows.''"

== RPG lists question. ==

So, I'm back, again. New RPG, new list to create. Anyways, I'll stick to the point: Since the page for ? Blocks in Origami King is so thorough and includes EVERY SINGLE ONE, I thought: Why some pages should have only hidden blocks and this one has all. I am aware that TOK as ingame counter for them, but so does the 3DS Mario and Luigi titles and only SS has the page for the hidden ones. So, I propose these two scenarios:

Add non-hidden ? Blocks to the respective pages and then rename the pages and create the pages for the games that does not have them, such as PIT. And do it for every single RPG.

OR

Same as above but only in the games that have the ? Block counter in them, such as 3DS ML games mentioned above.

I really think this would be a good idea, but I'm eager to hear your thoughts on this. Even if you think I should not do it, tell me, so I won't ask in the future again.

Anyways, that is all. --[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 16:45, November 17, 2023 (EST)

Okay, I'm going to go ahead with scenario 1, starting with the original SMRPG. Will keep you posted after every game. --[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 22:04, November 17, 2023 (EST)

Okay, I have a request: Could you look at my Sandbox and tell me which of the two images do you prefer? Then delete both, I will upload all at once after I'm done with the game.--[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 20:17, November 18, 2023 (EST)

Okay, this is what I'll do: I will screenshot the location, then crop it to remove the black bars and then change it to 1920x1080, that seems like the best option. So, please remove the File:Mushroom Way Treasure 1 (Cropped).png page, it's not needed anymore. Thank you and I'll make myself known after completing the game. --[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 20:48, November 18, 2023 (EST)

Hi. So. I just finished original Bowser's Inside Story and there are quite a lot of types of blocks, namely ? Block, Attack Piece Block, Brick Block, Special ? Block, Rally Block, Empty Block,  M-Block, L-Block, Body Slam Panel, Puzzle Sack Block and ! Block., so I kind of have series of questions: 
*Special ? Block - 2 in Pump Works and 1 in Energy Hold, these ? Blocks when struck create a collumn of 5 M/L Blocks in a pattern, which then must be repeated by striking subsequent 5 ? Blocks. Since they are different from normal ? Blocks, I would like to know if we have page for this type of block so I can use it when making the list? I vaguely remember it reappearing in Paper Jam, with P Blocks added to the mix.
*M/L/! Blocks - 1 M in Energy Hold, 2 L in Pump Works and Energy Hold, ! in Plack Beach Cliff. I grouped them together since they serve the same purpose. When struck, they turn on the coins around them. Should I include them in the list even though they're technically switches? But then these four are the only "switches" that give you a reward, like a ? Block. So you can see the dilemma here.
*Body Slam Panel - In Blubble Lake, Bowser Path and Peach's Castle. They also give out rewards when struck, just like ? Blocks But due to their low number, which would be better: Include them in the list or make a section in the Body Slam page?
*Empty Block - Ten in Toad Town Mall. Only in the Mushroom Ball sidequest. Add to the list and to the Mushroom Ball page or just the MB page? I know there already are some images, but I will include new ones in preparation for when I'll play the remake. (requested by Swallow)
*Puzzle Sack Block - Same as MB - On the list and page or just the page? Here I would only edit the existing images and also to prepare it for the remake.
*As for the rest, they will be added by default, so no questions for them.
Thank you for the upcoming answers, I will start with the list tommorow with your instructions. --[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 09:38, January 25, 2024 (EST)

Hi, so after little setback I started playing Sticker Star and I have a question: Since Sticker Star is the only two-screen game without any sort of minimap, should I just screenshot the non-album screen or should I keep doing it normally (two screens next to each other, like literally every other page with NDS/3DS games)? Also, there is a type of block called Paperization Block (block which appears after using Paperize and placing a sticker). Should I include them in the ? Block page or Hidden Block page?--[[User:Mid188|Mid188]] ([[User talk:Mid188|talk]]) 15:34, February 3, 2024 (EST)

You retitled the ''3D Hot Rally'' album article "''3D Hot Rally'' (soundtrack)."

It's a bit tricky on what to call it. What plays in ''Tetris 99'' is the arrangements of the title screen themes from the first three ''Mario Party'' games.

==To respond to your message==
I do agree that there's been a lack of communication with the changes I'm making to articles. I think I just assumed proposals are mostly for deciding whether to create or delete stuff on the wiki. On sidenote, I think disagreements on articles (mainly if they're not part of a "set" like Mario Kart courses, Super Mario levels) are too vague and lack substance to form a proposal out of.

As for the tabber template, both cases approved by the system are comparing screenshots each showing a different iterations of something between appearances. I'm not the only one who has been doing this: if you also take a look at the Mario 64 courses, I didn't add tabber to those. The Mario Party and Mario Kart set a precedent for similar cases: if Mario party minigames can use tabber, why not WarioWare microgames too? those are minigames that have returned in later WarioWare games in very similar manner to Mario Party minigames. From what I've heard, there's a solution in place for if JavaScript doesn't work, though over time, I've both felt and realized that such circumstances would call for captioning the images to preserve the context of the images.

For show/hide, I personally love clicking between tabs and collapsible content, especially if it's collapsing an element than might clash with prose (e.g. bloated wikitables or galleries). I'm also not the only person to have been doing this, as I saw someone add to a section on the [[e-Reader]] article, which has a bloated wikitable.

The Luigi's Mansion room pages have this one 3DS image on the side that squishes the opening text, making it harder to read, which is why I added tabber on the Luigi's Mansion room pages. I try to reduce redundant headings, which can include a gallery section if it has only one image, or sections with only one or two sentences.

For [[Cranky's Lab]], other articles don't have a "Potions" heading, so I tried imagining a way to make it look consistent with other shop pages. Perhaps Inventory is an ideal heading for shop locations. 

Lastly, even in wake of the disagreements, others did agree to me turning the enemy/item count on the level pages into gallery form, and that's the only change I made to some of the Super Mario level pages.

== A new glitch and a previously unknown item in Super Mario Bros. ==

Hi there! I have some potential edits for some Protected Pages that you might be interested in.

'''The newly discovered glitch in Super Mario Bros.'''

It is possible to defeat the same Lakitu twice in [https://www.mariowiki.com/World_8-2_(Super_Mario_Bros.)#Level_maps Super Mario Bros. World 8-2]. The first Lakitu begins its retreat near a bunch of brick blocks high in the air, which are hiding a secret One-Up. If you cross this threshold, the Lakitu begins its retreat like normal. If you platform on top of these bricks, you can defeat the Lakitu easily. But, if you move Mario past the threshold, the Lakitu wakes back to life on a lower yPosition, and retreats like nothing happened. If you are very quick about it, you can defeat the same Lakitu a second time. This is a very unusual bug. [https://jmp.sh/s/5M1HiqMUFF1kzcA3Obsc Here is a demonstration!]

'''The previously unknown item in Super Mario Bros.'''

A [https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_Super_Mario_Bros._glitches#Disappearing_Power-Ups notable glitch] in Super Mario Bros. is that two items cannot be rendered at the same time on the screen.

An implication of this is that the Beanstalk / Vine also needs to be included as one of the [https://www.mariowiki.com/Super_Mario_Bros.#Items Items] in the Super Mario Bros. article.

This is because the game considers Beanstalks to be an item.

I will prove this to you by showing that a vine cannot be rendered at the same time as an item. It is easy to make an item disappear because of a vine. But can you make a vine disappear because of an item?

In [https://www.mariowiki.com/World_3-1_(Super_Mario_Bros.:_The_Lost_Levels)#Level_map Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels World 3-1], you can do just that! Consider the close proximity of the vine block and mushroom block. [https://jmp.sh/s/J8A6SN8OwmN3bfoZAkcN Here's a gif] but you can also try it out for yourself. First hit the beanstalk box, then hit the mushroom box. The beanstalk will disappear because the game treats it like an item. Hopefully this is proof enough that Beanstalks should be considered an item along with the rest. (If it's not enough evidence, then this needs to be added as a completely new glitch in Super Mario Bros.)

A small disclaimer: I found both of these bugs on the Nintendo Switch emulation of the games. I am confident they appear on the regular NES and Arcade versions of Super Mario Bros. but it would need to be double checked obviously.

I am fascinated with glitches, and I hope these can be added to the notoriously short [https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_Super_Mario_Bros._glitches List of Super Mario Bros. glitches]. Thank you!

One last note, does the list of glitches contain the one where you fall directly on top of a vine or the flagpole? For some reason I can't find it in the list, I thought that was a rather popular one.

== An uncovered collective name ==

The cards needed to play minigames at the [[Pianta Parlor]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' — the [[Special Card]], the [[Silver Card]], the [[Gold Card]], and the [[Platinum Card]] — are collectively called Member's Cards. The name appears four times in the game:
* [[Lahla]]: "''Oh! Mario! That card! You got a <u>Member's Card</u>! OK. I'll prepare the mini-game you can play with that <u>Member's Card</u>. How exciting!''"
* An unnamed [[Goomba]] in Pianta Parlor: "''Whuzzat, now? You wanna know how to get a <u>Member's Card</u>, do ya?''"
* [[Wonky]]: "''If you want to try it, you'll have to find a <u>Member's Card</u> somewhere...''"

What should we do?
* Do not cover the name.
* Create a page for the name, using the singular form. This would make the page hard to categorize. For example, if we put it in [[:Category:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door special items]], it would appear to be another special item rather than a collective name.
* Create a page for the name, using the plural form. This doesn't seem to be wiki practice, and the plural form is unattested in the game.
* Redirect the name to [[Pianta Parlor]]. Seems to be a good idea, but this would make [[Pianta Parlor]] a two-subject page, possibly with two bolded names in the introductory part.

Can you please merge my WaluigiMan10000 account with this one? I lost the password to that account, as my laptop was damaged [[User:WarioDude]]

:You should request that at [[MarioWiki:Account services]], not on a bureaucrat's talk page. {{User:Mushroom Head/sig}} 00:53, February 4, 2024 (EST)

== "Minor NPC" ==

Currently we have the following three pages:
* [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario]]
* [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]
* [[List of unnamed NPCs in Super Paper Mario]]

The inconsistency in their names is due to historical reasons. These pages were really about characters not covered on the wiki, which, due to [[SMW:NPC]], are the ''minor'' (unimportant to storyline), ''unnamed'' NPCs. I initially went with "List of Minor NPCs …" because it was the only capitalized term at the time, which means I had to mention the minor-but-named characters, duplicating info available elsewhere on the wiki. I didn't use it for ''Super Paper Mario'' because the number of minor-but-named characters far outweighs the minor-but-unnamed ones in that game. Since the term was later [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?diff=3833486 decapitalized], would it be a good idea to change all three pages to "unnamed NPCs", for consistency? --[[User:Dine2017|Dine2017]] ([[User talk:Dine2017|talk]]) 22:03, February 5, 2024 (EST)
== "Unreleased Dark Moon Content" ==
The links to the videos have comments about them. The Haunted Towers one has the info about the names.

== I have a vandal doppelganger situation. ==

Aptly named "MightyWario". I feel honored, but if you would do me a favor and ban them for vandalizing and imitating me, it would be really awesome. Thanks. {{User:MightyMario/sig}} 21:57, February 22, 2024 (EST)

== Iggy info in New Super Mario Bros Wii ==

On the [[Iggy Koopa]] page, in the ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' section, can you please add that in his castle, before his fight, Iggy fires magic as Mario traverses the castle.

== Question about the Hammer theme ==

I was listening to the supposedly rearranged version of the [[Hammer Theme]] in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' for Switch. While it sounds not unlike the original, it still seems to use a slightly different square synthesizer for its instrument. Would that count as a rearrangement, or just a source-quality implementation of the original? {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 00:26, February 24, 2024 (EST)

== ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' level identifiers ==

Another thing: how should we handle the naming of levels from the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' remake? Since, as you know, two new worlds were added in (meaning, say, Level 6-4 is now Level 8-4), we'll no doubt have to do a massive series of page moves, but should the identifier stay the same for the moved pages? {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 19:58, February 24, 2024 (EST)

== I have a question about the number of signatures you can have. ==

Hi! I have a small question about signatures. In [[MarioWiki:Signatures]], one of the rules states that "Some users also change their sigs during certain holidays. Though allowed, these sigs must also conform to all previous rules, and it is suggested to only do this a couple of times a year at most." However, I can't help but notice that a lot of users have multiple signatures that are used throughout the year, which technically breaks this rule. I was wondering what this rule's logistics are; is it just a suggestion, a hard rule, or something in between? Thanks for taking the time to answer this question! -- {{User:FanOfRosalina2007/sig}} 16:34, March 1, 2024 (EST)
== Just so you know ==
I forgot the  password of my old account, so you can ban it. {{unsigned|Mario shro0m123}}

I got the device in which I created my old account, so can you unban my old account and ban this one? thanks. {{unsigned|Mario shro0m123}}

== [[Special:Diff/4093014]] ==

I think i've just found a more apt description of the green Birdo's voice. It's apathetic, and devoid of any sort of emotion. While you may say that the current "pitch difference" description sounds better, do you think this "apathetic" description sounds better than my original input? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 12:12, March 18, 2024 (EDT)

== Umm… yeah, about that sock puppet thing…==
Hello, Mario JC! I would just like to mention that earlier you might recall blocking me and some other “Sockpuppet” of me. Well, I just would like to mention that… um, that sockpuppet was my best friend! He created an account around the same time as I did, and he showed me that he was BLOOCKED INDEFINITELY! Now, I have NO CLUE how our IP’s got mixed up (Probably due to how we use MarioWiki during free time at school) but either way you blocked him accidentally. And I know exactly that HE is the sockpuppet because he was blocked by you, too, and that we were blocked at the same time. Could you please unblock him? If you don’t trust me, that’s fine but at least tell me and I’ll prove how it’s true. {{User:Wonder Time!/sig}}

Hey, JC, I wanna say thanks for unblocking my friend. {{User:Wonder Time!/sig}}

== How the heck am I supposed to get cool by editing everything "correctly", huh? ==
Okay, Mario JC. For once, you're right. But this isn't my first time joining in this wiki anymore, all I ever do is to edit everything correctly, but I actually don't? How? You might I'm annoying, but how the heck was I suppossed know I edited something bad? I'm not like an 8-year old child. I'm tired of being not cool and serious. Tell me how I should be a non-annoying editer. So I can get personal at all.

== Level templates ==

Hello! Out of curiosity, I have a question regarding game-specific templates if it's a case-by-case basis, thinking about how SMB3 wouldn't be included in the level articles, but for example DKC is present in the [[Reptile_Rumble|level articles]] of the game. But that maybe is a relic from the merge?

;[[MarioWiki:Navigation_templates#Game-specific templates|Game-specific templates]]:...These auxiliary game-specific templates only need to go on the articles of subjects that concern them (e.g. the NSMB2 level articles) and the game page itself. Like the main game-specific templates, auxiliary templates are color-coded based on series.

I assumed that the main template should be included in all articles related to the game, but that auxiliary level templates should only be present in the main article and level articles. Or should this question be taken else where? ''Kind regards'' {{User:Nikenpelle/sig}} 11:41, March 23, 2024 (EDT)

== Proposal cleaned up ==

I cleaned up [[MarioWiki:Proposals#Broaden the scope of the &lcub;&lcub;unreferenced&rcub;&rcub; template|my proposal]] by adding the <code><nowiki><pre></nowiki></code> tags. You should take a look at what the template will look like from above. What do you think how my proposal looks? {{User:GuntherBB/sig}} 21:18, March 30, 2024 (EDT)
