There is '''way''' more information that can be added than just the ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' info. If you need more time, work on the article(s) in your [[Special:MyPage/sandbox|sandbox]]. Also, one thing worth noting is that navigation templates (such as [[Template:SMM2]]) ''should not be substituted''; just add <code><nowiki>{{SMM2}}</nowiki></code> to the bottom of the page.

You don't need to link to the same subject multiple times in a paragraph. Only one link is enough (see [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Linking, linking, linking!]]). Also, there have been some instances where you didn't do this but so it's clear, game titles need to be ''italicised'' (e.g. [[Super Mario 3D World]] should be formatted as ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' - see [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Italicizing titles]]). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:23, October 7, 2021 (EDT) |

Featured articles
I'm not sure what you mean exactly with your latest "ditto" vote, but I would strongly advise against supporting featured article nominations just because you like the subject in the future, since what matters is the article's quality. You should see MarioWiki:Featured articles for more info on how the process works. Nightwicked Bowser 11:39, September 24, 2021 (EDT)
Uploads
Hello, OhoJeeOnFire. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:
When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use: [[Category:Super Mario World images]]or [[Category:Super Mario World media files]] Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing. |
Hello, OhoJeeOnFire. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below. {{aboutfile |1=Subject of the image |2=Where you found the image |3=Artist |4=Describe edits, if any |5=Other versions (use file link) }} Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing. |
A few more things:
- You shouldn't upload full spritesheets to the wiki; it's recommended you crop the ones you need and upload them separately (the ones that would be worth having are the damage and shell sprites).
- Don't upload duplicate files. If you needed to change the name, use the "move" button at the top of the file page.

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site. If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Not only did you continue to upload full spritesheets, you still didn't categorise any one of your uploads. You need to replace {{uncategorized}} with [[Category:Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 images]]
. There were also a number of problems with the images, and I'm not sure what you did to save your images or what program you used to crop, but:
- You uploaded in jpg but the original sprites were png. They should be saved in the original format, otherwise it adds jpg artifacts to the sprites.
- The sheets were way smaller than the original. To get the original size, you had to click on the "Download this sheet" link or right-click the image and select "Save image as..."
- The cropped sprites left some background colour behind. Again, I don't know what program you used, but you can use Photoshop or even a simpler program like Paint.net and use the magic wand tool to easily remove the background without any problems.
Responding to your post, there's no need to upload every single frame of a character's animation. One or a few of the key ones (idle sprite, damaged sprite etc.) is enough to show what the character looks like. Mario JC 20:34, October 6, 2021 (EDT)
Stubs
One or more pages that you have recently created have been deleted or marked as a stub article (Gentle Slope and Steep Slope). Please consider the following ideas and suggestions when expanding/creating an article:

There is way more information that can be added than just the Super Mario Maker 2 info. If you need more time, work on the article(s) in your sandbox. Also, one thing worth noting is that navigation templates (such as Template:SMM2) should not be substituted; just add {{SMM2}}
to the bottom of the page. Thanks! (T|C) 16:21, October 7, 2021 (EDT)
Formatting
You don't need to link to the same subject multiple times in a paragraph. Only one link is enough (see MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Linking, linking, linking!). Also, there have been some instances where you didn't do this but so it's clear, game titles need to be italicised (e.g. Super Mario 3D World should be formatted as Super Mario 3D World - see MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Italicizing titles).
