The 'Shroom Spotlight project all started with an idea from {{User|Xzelion}}, who first brought it up among the wiki staff members in April, 2011. Originally referred to as "Wiki Game of the Month", it was proposed that this new project could focus on improving articles relating to a game which has already been released for some time, aiming to recreate the rush of activity from users who were covering content for the newest game releases. At the time, the [[MarioWiki:PipeProject|PipeProjects]] system was the main method of forming new user collaborations, although it was understood that such projects weren't always successful in gaining widespread input from users. To attract ongoing community engagement, it was suggested that this new monthly project should have its own section within [[The 'Shroom:About|The 'Shroom]] community paper.

After deciding on "The 'Shroom Spotlight" as a project title, it was planned that the monthly section was to be co-ordinated by the wiki staff, and users were initially able to sign up to show their interest in contributing to the project. Early editions focused only on a specific game every month, and readers were invited to collaborate on improving the articles lacking in content which are related to that game. Today, Spotlight covers a very broad selection of articles in each edition, with each focus normally coming from a different maintenance category.

*'''August 2020''': {{User|Alex95}} joined with Yoshi876 as co-manager.

*'''April 2022''': Alex95 was removed from co-management. Yoshi876 once again took on the role of sole manager.
