Hey, stuff like [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=New_Year%27s_2021_Tour&diff=prev&oldid=3096433 this info about other tours] isn't pertinent to the actual tour, and thus wouldn't make sense on the tour page. Stuff like mentioning reused Coin Rushed or challenges is fine as it is reused content from other tours and that is thus pertinent to the tour page, however these examples of "similar incidents" you've been adding have't been very relevant to the tours depicted in the actual tour pages. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 15:00, January 1, 2021 (EST) | Hey, stuff like [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=New_Year%27s_2021_Tour&diff=prev&oldid=3096433 this info about other tours] isn't pertinent to the actual tour, and thus wouldn't make sense on the tour page.

== Smart apostrophes == | |||
Your device seems to be using curly (smart) quotes and apostrophes (‘...’ instead of '...') when you type. I recommend turning this off as this can get in the way in searching and linking (e.g. searching or linking to an article with an apostrophe in it may not work and create a red link respectively, [[MarioWiki:Redirects#Smart_apostrophe/quote_redirects|if no redirect exists]]). Another reason is that articles should always be [[MarioWiki:Redirects#Linking_to_redirects|linked with their actual name anyway]], so links should use the straight apostrophe instead of curly. If you're using an Apple device, you can turn this off by going to your settings, then the keyboard settings and turning "smart quotes" off (it should be under "Text" in Mac OS). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 20:15, January 2, 2021 (EST) | |||
Revision as of 20:15, January 2, 2021
When creating a new article, please remember to add a navigation template and category. In the case of the Tour gliders, this should be placed at the bottom like the rest of the glider articles:
{{MKT}}
[[Category:Mario Kart Tour Gliders]]
You can find more information on MarioWiki:Manual of Style.

"Similar Incidents"
Hey, stuff like this info about other tours isn't pertinent to the actual tour, and thus wouldn't make sense on the tour page. Stuff like mentioning reused Coin Rushed or challenges is fine as it is reused content from other tours and that is thus pertinent to the tour page, however these examples of "similar incidents" you've been adding have't been very relevant to the tours depicted in the actual tour pages.

Smart apostrophes
Your device seems to be using curly (smart) quotes and apostrophes (‘...’ instead of '...') when you type. I recommend turning this off as this can get in the way in searching and linking (e.g. searching or linking to an article with an apostrophe in it may not work and create a red link respectively, if no redirect exists). Another reason is that articles should always be linked with their actual name anyway, so links should use the straight apostrophe instead of curly. If you're using an Apple device, you can turn this off by going to your settings, then the keyboard settings and turning "smart quotes" off (it should be under "Text" in Mac OS).
