Minor edits[edit]

Hello! Good job on your contributions, but just remember to mark minor edits as minor, and vice versa. This is breaching a Level One Offence. Please be more careful in future. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply! A minor edit counts as a small amount of syntax being added or removed, like fixing a spelling/grammar mistake, or re-wording a sentence. Adding a whole paragraph, as I have seen on your contributions, is not a minor edit. If you have any other questions, please message me again. Thankyou :)

Reply[edit]

While your effort is greatly appreciated and was clearly an attempt to improve Mario's article, and while it is true that a spade appears when Mario uses a special move in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, I am afraid that it is not significant enough to be considered trivia. Your point relied on the relationship of the spade to Mario, and because we have nothing from Nintendo, Square Enix, or the game itself that indicates the spade is there for a specific reason, we must assume that there is no relationship, and therefore the point is false (except the aforementioned fact that a spade appears when Mario uses a special move, but the fact isn't noteworthy. If you look at the other points in the section, they either pertain to Mario's development, particular games, or to his fame as a character, all things which allow the reader to assign importance to the trivia points).

I personally wouldn't add it to the page since we don't know why the spade appears or if it has any significance beyond its appearance, and no problem. Mario4Ever (talk)

Minor edits[edit]

Thanks for your apology, but you didn't have to ;) Let's be friends! Regarding your questions, yes, if the edit is not minor, you don't tick the box. It won't be necessary to put in the summary. And no, you cannot change your previous edits to not minor. I wish we could though :) I think you will do very well on this Wiki. Keep it up!
