Your sandbox editEdit

The sandbox is a place designed to test wiki syntax for newcomers, not a place to dump spam into. Please don't do it again. BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C) 15:51, 1 May 2017 (EDT)

Stub articlesEdit

One or more pages that you have recently created have been deleted or marked as a stub article (McDonald's happy meal. Png). Please consider the following ideas and suggestions when expanding/creating an article:
  • Before saving a new page, be sure that you have put as much effort and information in the article as you can.
  • Make sure that the page follows all of the rules that are outlined in the Manual of Style.
  • Perhaps upload a few images that can be used on the article.
Please don't take this notice as a dejection; this is just an informative notice and we encourage you to keep contributing.

When creating pages, please try to put as much effort into it as possible. Also, if it is meant to be a file (as it has .png on it), then you would have to upload it. --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 10:50, 3 May 2017 (EDT)

HiEdit

Hi this is pinkyoshifan (the person from church) link to my userpage: PinkYoshiFan (talk)

Just a friendly reminderEdit

You're unconstructively editing your userpage a bit too much, as shown by your recent contributions. You aren't in trouble right now, don't worry, but if this continues, I'll have to issue a userspace warning later on. Just focus on main articles instead of your userpage a bit more and you'll be good. Thanks! LBsig.png LB (talkeditsforum) 16:55, 8 May 2017 (EDT)

ReminderEdit

Please stop using poor grammar, bad writing, and not coding correctly on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Also, when creating articles, please try to write more than just a couple sentences, or it will be marked as a stub and it could get deleted. Additionally, game modes are only given articles when the information is too long for the main page of a game. --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros.

Re: Hi Mr. andymiiEdit

Hi there! Unlike Fake News, Fun Stuff articles do not have logos, so you don't have to worry about that. If you want to apply for Silly Stories, simply follow the application instructions here.

Silly Stories is a difficult yet rewarding section to write because it requires coordination and cooperation with your readers. Because readers obviously aren't able to answer questions yet, feel free to send me the "silly questions" that you need answers to in order to construct your story. I'll provide answers for you as soon as I can.

I look forward to seeing what you can produce! --Andymii (talk) 23:45, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

Talk pagesEdit

Please remember that talk pages are used only for improving a page, and things such as what you put here are considered forum talk, which isn't allowed. Please visit the forums if you want to ask questions like that. Also, you probably shouldn't reply to sections that haven't been edited for almost three years old like you did here. Thanks for reading, and continue contributing! --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 10:19, 15 May 2017 (EDT)

Additionally, when you are posting a new comment on a talk page, please post your comment on the bottom of the page so there is a consistent timeline of comments. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 12:29, 20 May 2017 (EDT)

Sprite of the Month?Edit

Hi, there, sorry to not have gotten back to you, I don't check my Talk Page very often anymore. You can often find sprites on Mario Wiki pages for the games they appear in, listed in tables of enemies, items, and power ups. Try checking pages of games that have sprite artwork (usually the handheld games) to look for those tables. If you have any other questions, let me know! FunkyK38 (talk)

Edit snipingEdit

Warning.svg This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (edit sniping) 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.

You know that Prisma Cardware page you created? User:TheFlameChomp was planning to make it at some point and you managed to do it before him. Please do not edit snipe in the future. Doing it again could give you a harsher warning than this one. Thanks! – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 16:39, 30 June 2017 (EDT)

I am not too concerned, though I would like to ask you to allow me to add the list of cards that are sold there myself, as I have been working on a table for awhile. --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 16:44, 30 June 2017 (EDT)

New stub articleEdit

One or more pages that you have recently created have been deleted or marked as a stub article (Rescue Squad Chief). Please consider the following ideas and suggestions when expanding/creating an article:
  • Before saving a new page, be sure that you have put as much effort and information in the article as you can.
  • Make sure that the page follows all of the rules that are outlined in the Manual of Style.
  • Perhaps upload a few images that can be used on the article.
Please don't take this notice as a dejection; this is just an informative notice and we encourage you to keep contributing.

Hi, when creating a new article, please put much more time and effort into it to begin with. I know you're trying to work on it, but you should just create a sandbox and work on it there instead. Thanks! Toadette icon CTTT.pngFont of Archivist Toadette's signature(T|C) 19:26, 4 December 2018 (EST)

Re:FlashbackEdit

Hey, thank you for your interest! Pipe Plaza used to have a section called 'Retro Feature', which examines years-old 'Shroom sections. A version like this would certainly work for wiki articles, looking back on what the page used to be like and why it changed. If you're interested in writing, please take a look at the sign up page.
