I hope. The idea was that all the Paper Marios would be together, all the Super Marios would be together, all the Mario vs. Donkey Kongs would be together, etc. The only games that would not be in series sections would be ones like Mario Pinball Land, which are not part of the series, and they'd be in a section called "Single Installments" rather than something like "Other Games."

Tell you what, I'll do up a mock-up before this goes into effect (though proposal or otherwise... hopefully through proposal, I'm not one for "administration without representation", so to speak) and show it to you. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 23:50, 17 September 2008 (EDT) | ::Oh, don't worry.

wiki Wars II
Hey! I've decided to become one of the fighters! Oh and when did Wiki Wars I take place? ;)
It's nice to meet you,
MC Hammer Bro. 21:06, 6 June 2008 (EDT)
Hey
Hiya, Walkazo. We haven't talked in a bit. What's up? Palkia47
- Lol. And about me... I'm depressed. Stooben went on an indefinite hiatus, while Blue Koop retired... otherwise, I'm gonna start my "editing patrol" (just technically start editing). I'm also past 1000 edits. Palkia47
Hi! I'm Toadette!
Hello Walkazo. My name is Toadette 4evur, but you can call me Toadette. :) Anyway, I'm looking for new friends to talk to right now. You seem nice, and I like nice people as friends. A little about me: I'm closing in on 2000 edits (which actually saddens me because I've been here over 7 months), I'm a fan of Toadette (in case you didn't know), and I really, really, really want Super Mario RPG on Virtual Console, really bad. Nintendo of Japan is nice because they're giving the game to Japan on VC (Nintendo of America hates us). Anyway, I hope we can be friends. SJ derp :P
Hi Walkazo. How are you? SJ derp :P
I know about the proposal page. From time to time I'll sign twice with one signature being my sig. o_O Anyway, if you're looking for a real life species, "pig" starts with a "P", if you're looking for something Mario-ey, Para-Troopa and Para-Goomba start with "P". ;) SJ derp :P
Re: Fire/Ice Proposal
You're welcome. Thanks for adopting the idea! —Soler (talk · edits · edit count) 07:27, 5 July 2008 (EDT).
Awards
Sorry for being away so long...yes, A#. N# is the standard format. Put O: nominee name for an Other vote, and leave it blank or put S for skipk. A# becomes U# for Userpedia Awards. Wa TC@Y 15:13, 5 July 2008 (EDT)
Ugh, Blue Koop is the worst user ever. Wanna know what I found out? On Bowserpedia he's purposely calling me a girl, which is actually a form of sexual harrasment. I know KB is gonna see that and not do anything. SJ derp :P
- True. I left the Bowserpedia Wars, if I would have kept doing what I had done, I doubt people would trust me enough for me to be a Sysop one day. =/ SJ derp :P
Welcome back! What the header text say. --Blitzwing 20:24, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
The Alternate Canon Solution
I think I have a solution! Check out MarioWiki talk:Canonicity. The basic idea is this: we please discrete templates in the article that can be opened to reveal the sections on alternate canon sources, but those who don't want to read them will not have to open them. Stumpers! 11:44, 7 August 2008 (EDT)
Thank you
I am new to this wiki and it really meant something for me for you to help me on the talk page. Honestly though, I am not very good with computers and didn't understand part of what you said about changing the location of pictures. Oh well, my fault not yours. One last thing, could you please support Baby Luigi becoming a featured article? Thanks for your help again! WK
AAAAUUUUGGGGHHHH!!!! Even before I log on, I see no edit tab for the Mario page. Could you see if you could edit it just to see if it is just me or the Mario page is protected or something? WK
This is really embarasing, but I need your help.......... again. I want to add an image to my signature, so I looked it up on FAQ. However, I don't even know what a sig page it :(. Man, I need as much help as Mario needed in Luigi's Mansion! WK
OH MAN, I FORGOT SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT!!! I can't believe I forgot to say thank you for helping out with sigs. So.... thanks for helping me out with sigs. I think I am getting the ropes of this wiki now. I just finished editing my user page so now I have userboxes. I was looking at what you said about Bowser FA oppose and , if you ask me, a section for Baby Bowser's role in Yoshi Island DS is not needed. The information is already long, and seven more sections may be coming in. But hey, that's just my opinion. You indeed have been a great help to me. So long! WK (One more thing, I know how you feel about Mario, but what about Luigi?)
Sigs on Proposals Page
Hi! Thanks for spotting all the sigs on the Proposals page. But could you please, instead of pointing to it, simply correct them? This saves time and space, and we can avoid archiving comments like "please don't sign with ~~~~" when they have nothing to do with the actual proposal. Don't worry about editing other people's comments, you're not changing their content after all, just their sigs. Thanks! Time Questions 05:27, 14 August 2008 (EDT)
Hey
Eh, what's up doc? I looked at your userbox and I had recently been thinking that Bowser needs his own game, too! In this game, he should destroy the Mario bros., marry peach... again, and take over the world! Then, it all turns out just to be the King Koopa's dream! :) WK
Well, yes a dream has already been used (Super Mario bros. 2). If Bowser defended his kingdom from a new threat, wouldn't that make him heroic if the threat is yet another greater villain? I personally perfer Bowser as a villain than a hero. I say the game (which will probably never happen) should be what I already said, but instead of a dream, it should that time resets so the events of the game never happen. Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 is an example, although this may cause Nintendo to get sued by Sega. By the way, why don't you like Mario? WK
*looks sheepish*
Thanks for helping out by changing all of my signatures into user templates on the proposals page. Old habits die hard. Maybe I should just change my signature to a user template. Stumpers! 23:16, 18 August 2008 (EDT)
Mario Party Wiki
He Walkazo, Im looking for people who might want to join a Mario Party Wiki. Are you interested?? Please tell me on my talk page if you are. - Count Caterpie
Hi Walkazo!! I'm Birdoshi! ^____^ nice to meet you! Birdoshi
- ^ o ^ me to!!, how are u?
Hello Walkazo!!, me to, I have problems with my teacher, anyway, today is Saturday!(time to play!!)
^ . ^ Hey!!! hey click here!!: (she's Birdette!!) http://mpwiki.scribblewiki.com/Image:Birdette.jpg Birdoshi
Hi
Hi Walkazo. What's up? SJ derp :P
Mario & Luigi's Parents
Hey, Walkazo. The other sysops and I were discussing the canon situation, and some ideas came up that were like yours for Mario & Luigi's Parents: divide by series. So, it would be something likes this:
- Intro
- Appearances in Television
- Super Mario Bros. Super Show
- References in Adventures of SMB3 and Super Mario World
- Appearances in Comics
- Nintendo Comics System
- Family Album: The Early Years
- Club Nintendo Reference (scrubbing toilets)
- Nintendo Comics System
- Appearances in Video Games
- Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
- References in Mario Kart: Double Dash!
- Appearances in Television
It's the general consensus that such a format would be good on all articles because it does not imply a canon and also does not follow the backless assumptions of MarioWiki:Chronology, only those that we know to be true (ie SMW2 happening before SMB or Family Album: The Early Years taking place prior to the rest of the Valient Comics). Anyway, congratulations on coming up with this idea (I introduced it to them) - hopefully we'll see these changes come into effect soon. I think Mario and Luigi's Parents should be one of the first articles to get this treatment when the idea passes. Stumpers! 22:23, 16 September 2008 (EDT)
- Definitely! I think I may have forgotten to mention this: we're gonna be sorting by video game series as well, so Paper Mario and Super Mario 64 will no longer be in the same section. I'm trying to create a way for users to still be able to go through the articles in MarioWiki:Canonicity order if they wish through links to other sections of the articles, but I'm still waiting for feedback from the other sysops. Stumpers! 23:32, 16 September 2008 (EDT)
- Oh, don't worry. It's all part of compromise - and I hope we do find one soon. :3 Anyway, I think that the "all games are created equal" idea is going to be reflected in the new organization...
