We should start using this. Tadaa!2.gifPlumberTadaaa!.gif

It depends if people want to use it.Knife (talk) 16:47, 23 June 2007 (EDT)

*embarrased* I completely forgot about this. I'll recruit some people in the chat soon. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 15:28, 20 July 2007 (EDT)

This should only be used on major characters. I don't think characters like the Paper Mario series partners or the Smash Bros. characters deserve the infobox. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 14:19, 22 July 2007 (EDT)

Define Appearances

Do cameos or mentions count as an appearance? For example, the PM partners had cameo appearances on Catch Cards, but does that mean we add that as their latest appearance?Knife (talk) 15:58, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

I don't think so. Tadaa!2.gifPlumberTadaaa!.gif 15:59, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

Minor? Major? What?

Should we remove the Importance area of the template, since it seems a bit opinionated? For example, Waluigi is one of the most recurring characters in the Marioverse, yet he isn't one bit important to Mario main adventures. And people like Parakarry (who unfortunately isn't as recurring) is a pretty important character (Mario couldn't clear the rest of the game without his infamous carry ability). So should we perhaps remove the section, to be fair?Knife (talk) 14:25, 2 August 2007 (EDT)

I think so. Mario riding YoshiXzelionETC

Origin

I can't seem to get origin to appear on the articles... check out Village Leader and MC Ballyhoo for examples of my problem. Stumpers! 10:31, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

Affiliation

What does this mean? Characters the character is allied with (i.e. Bowser with the Koopa Troop, Mario with Luigi) or characters they're affiliated with, as in, you think Waluigi, you instantly think Luigi and Wario. -- Sir Grodus
