Hello! Are you familiar with the account WhiteMintyCookie19 (talk)? You seem to share IP addresses. Just so you know, having multiple accounts is not allowed, but please let me or another admin know if you forgot your original password or something. --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros.

Forgot Original PasswordEdit

Sorry, but yes, I did forget my password. Heh heh. Can I delete an account?

WeirdDave13

Thank you letting me know! The account can't be fully deleted, though I will block it indefinitely. It won't affect your current account. -- TheFlameChomp (talk) 15:53, 12 November 2017 (EST)

Thanks!

Stub articlesEdit

Regarding the High Jump (Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge) page you created, please try to add as much information as you can. It's been marked as a stub, the category and nav template was missing, and an image would be helpful. Please look over the page to see what's been added, and don't be afraid to ask for help for future pages if you need it.    14:07, 14 July 2018 (EDT)

CategoriesEdit

Please don't create empty categories. They should have a brief description, and also receive categories themselves. So for Category:Donkey Kong Barrel Blast Enemies, you would add Category:Donkey Kong Barrel Blast and Category:Donkey Kong Enemies (which has been done for you). See MarioWiki:Categories for more information.   Mario JC 02:39, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

My one problem is that it won't let me save the page when I try to do that.

WeirdDave13

How did you type it that it didn't let you save it?   Mario JC 02:53, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

When I started typing, the buttons disappeared.

WeirdDave13

Hmm, not sure what's causing that. Though you seem to be editing mainspace pages fine, so that's odd. Does it happen when creating any page or just categories? Have you tried selecting the summary box and pressing "Enter"?   Mario JC 03:12, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

Does it have anything to do with me editing on a mobile device?

WeirdDave13

Ah, yeah, I just tried doing this on a smartphone device and everything directly below the text box disappears. I'll let Porplemontage (talk) know, then.   Mario JC 03:12, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

Okay, thanks :)

WeirdDave13

Porplemontage has since fixed the issue, so it should be good now!   Mario JC 21:40, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

On the topic of categories, if you're adding a category like Category:Donkey Kong Barrel Blast Enemies to an article, since the category is already categorised with Category:Donkey Kong Barrel Blast and Category:Donkey Kong Enemies, they can be removed from the article. Type categories like Category:Cragnons (which are ordered by significance) also go before game-specific categories like Category:Super Paper Mario Characters (which are ordered alphabetically) on articles.

On a different topic, keep in mind that according to our userspace policy, mainspace templates like {{character infobox}} cannot be used for your userpage; however, you can copy the code from the template page itself and repurpose it for your userpage instead.   Mario JC 04:01, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

Okay thank you!

Technically it wasn't misspelled, it was just in a language other than English. Still, the move was justified. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:58, 1 November 2018 (EDT)

Infobox proposalEdit

Since you were one of the supporters of my earlier proposal, would you mind leaving feedback on this so I can get started? Thanks. --  Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 12:27, December 4, 2019 (EST)
