== Sunshine goop ==
== On Hold... ==
Should we make articles for the differnt kinds of goo in Super Mario Sunshine? Or at least one article for all of them?
<br>- [[User: Yoshi Mastar|Yoshi Master]]


Yes. we should.

why is it??? [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]]

Sounds good! [[User:3dejong|3dejong]]
I'd be willing and absolutely support bringing this back if enough contributors will sustain this community setting. However, all talk related content will stay at [[Talk:Main Page]] &ndash; too confusing. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 16:36, 9 April 2007 (EDT)


My Bad. Okay so there's the orange and yellow goop on the airstrip and shot from <br>the Rockey Wrench in Noki Bay
We should link the Templates that you edit these on to this page. [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]]
<br>the black tar stuff on the Blue Coin shack
<br>the yellow force feilds
<br>the pink transparent goo on Noki Bay's water
<br>the grey transparent goo on Bianco Hill's lake
<br>the rainbow warp portal goo
<br>the green slime in Bowser's bath
<br>the electric goo from the Manta
<br>the red paint from Bowser Jr
<br>the fire goo from the Chomps
<br>Petey Piranha's brown sludge
<br>and Gooper Bloopers ink
<br>Did I miss anything? Do you think the stuff in Mt Corona is really lava? And what's the pages name?
<br>- [[User: Yoshi Mastar|Yoshi Master]]


No we shouldn't. We considered this problem a long time ago.{{User:HK-47/sig}}


I think '''Goo''' will be a good title and we'll make redirects from all goo types. You were really helpful. &ndash; [[User Talk:Spike|Spike]][[Image:Spike_sheild_badge.PNG]]
well, what are All the templates??? at least, like, put them at the top of this page. [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]]
:I think [[Goop]] would be better, as it isn't really a goo.

== Bad Pics ==
Look at the bottom of one template. There is a category for them.{{User:HK-47/sig}}
When uploading pics can you make sure they're not stretched out/really bad quality/obviously stolen from The Mushroom Kingdom site? It doesn't take much to fix something, even if you only have MS paint. Lets try to look professional here people.
<br>- [[User:Yoshi Mastar|Yoshi Master]]


== Bonus Games ==
Along with there's a list at the bottom of each template.{{User:HK-47/sig}}
Should we add pages for bonus games, like Stump Petuni and the thwomp quiz from Paper Mario 2? We would also have to add the lives earning thing at the end of each level in SMB2 and SML, the Toad House card games in SMB3, the Wario Land enemy bombing, ect.
<br>- [[User: Yoshi Mastar|Yoshi Master]]


:Those articles are legit, especially if they are named. The Toad House games should probably be listed in the Toad House article, as they are not given specific names (to my knowledge). The others should have conjectural names if they are not associated with a specific place. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]
um... why don't you put the CATEGORY on the page??? [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]] what is one??? I forgot!!!


== Just a thought... ==
OK. I put the category on my watchlist. (I someties use it as a "favorites" so I don't fill up my favorites bar) [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]]
In SMRPG, with Psychopath, Mallow can read minds, revealing a "thought". The thoughts of an enemy should be added to its page. I have the thoughts for quite a few enemies, so when have the time I may upload a few. Could this be made into a project?
{{unsigned|3dejong|Start signing your comments, please. ''{{user|Wayoshi}}'}}


Sure! It's a great idea! <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''aper '''Jorge'''</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Paper Jorge|Need to tell me something?

== A project thought ==
:A whole PipeProject on the text revealed in one move, on every enemy? I think another SMRPG-related issue can be combined into this idea for a full PipeProject. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#006633;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Wayoshi|T]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Contributions/Wayoshi|C]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Emailuser/Wayoshi|@]] )</small> 22:47, 9 October 2006 (EDT)


Sweet! When can we start? Sorry about the unsigned comment, I forgot. :-
Recently I, and others, have been "adopting" the Orphaned Pages (those that aren't linked to by any other page). This could be a small to-do project. =)

==Funny Captions in Images==
yay we're down to like fifty or forty-nine
I've noticed several images with captions that are "jokes".  For example, the Charlieton article has an image caption that reads, "Needs a shave?"  If such quips were added to the article itself, it would be deleted as vandalism.


So, should these captions be allowed, or reversed to more serious ones?[[User:Waluigi Freak 99|Waluigi Freak 99]] 18:39, 13 October 2006 (EDT)
--[[User:Great Gonzo|Great Gonzo]] 19:26, 9 April 2007 (EDT)


Yes they should be allowed because the image is the only place to add humor on the Wiki. Although I have no authority over this matter you should ask Steve.-[[User Talk:Spike|Spike]][[Image:Spike_sheild_badge.PNG]]
good idea. [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]] and yes, hc made a forum thread.
:{{user|Yoshi Mastar}} has added almost all of those "funny" captions. You may want to ask for his reasons as well, but I think it's a good idea if the only other possible caption is boring. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#606;"><font size="5">'''{{color-link-piped|User:Wayoshi|#3B003B|W}}'''ayoshi</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Wayoshi|T]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Contributions/Wayoshi|C]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Emailuser/Wayoshi|@]] )</small> <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php/Special:Random http://www.mariowiki.com/images/2/24/Wayoshisig.png]</span> 21:25, 13 October 2006 (EDT)


The captions should be serious and give a very brief description of the image. I'm thinking the jokes thing is pretty lame and somehow takes away from our credibility as this hardcore Mario knowledge base. The site should be very similar to Wikipedia in its seriousness. --<span style=" -variant: small-caps;">'''[[User:Porplemontage|Steve]]''' (''[[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]'')</span> 22:16, 13 October 2006 (EDT)

I kinda like the little quips, but some, like the first Tweester caption, (how the Tweester  "sucks") went a little too far. We do want to give a good impression, don't we? [[User: 3dejong|3dejong]]
Sweet!


I agree with Steve. The wiki is supposed to be informative and the picture captions should be informative as well. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]
--[[User:Great Gonzo|Great Gonzo]] 19:38, 9 April 2007 (EDT)


Yea they should be serious, but don't write ''exactly'' what's in the pic so much that it's redundant. Also we should probably include the game the pics from.  
Good job. ^^ I never thought of doin' that. :P<br>
<br>- [[User: Yoshi Mastar|Yoshi Master]]
Oh, and, another glitch (I think..) has been found. The page "Passport+" doesn't exist on the Wiki, yet it's listed on the list. D= {{User:Luigi hc/sig}}


:You know these new captions are exactly what's in the pic. We might as well have no captions. [[User:Superchao|Superchao]] 18:53, 14 October 2006 (EDT)
:Saw it; been there, done that... (HeeHeeHee...)There's other glitches I saw a few weeks ago... {{User:RAP/sig}}


::How so?  In the Super Mario Wiki, when we write our articles and captions, we assume that the reader knows nothing about them.  Someone who's never seen Waluigi before will be curious about who that tall, distorted, purple guy is. We want serious captions here, not corny jokes.[[User:Waluigi Freak 99|Waluigi Freak 99]] 17:54, 17 October 2006 (EDT)
Hmm.. it seems that a bunch of the Orphans are just Wario pages, telling about a speicific form of Wario. Does anyone know all the Wario forms (examples: frozen, flat, fat, electric...)? If so, you could add on to the proper game's article with a section on that, linking to each individual Wario-form paage. ;D<br>
Just a thought. {{User:Luigi hc/sig}}
:There should be a Wario Forms template, which will take care of X number of orphaned pages at the same time. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 20:47, 10 April 2007 (EDT)


:::I half-agree. While the captions should be descriptive. They are getting to the point where they are becoming a little redundant, at least in my opinion. Is there no way to acheive a happy medium? [[User: Monty Mole|<span style="font-family:BrushScrD; color:#C0D9D9;"><font size="3"><i>Monty Mole]]</i></font></span> (<span style="font-family:Vrinda">[[User talk:Monty Mole|Talk]]&middot;[[Special: Contributions/Monty Mole|Contribs]]</span>) 21:52, 17 October 2006 (EDT)
Hmm.. sounds like a ''better'' plan. ;) Who wants to get to that? :) (I would, I just don't know how to make a template, nor do I know all of Wario's forms.) {{User:Luigi hc/sig}}


::::Remember, just because captions can't be silly doesn't mean they can't be interesting. See the [[Ninji]] image caption for an interesting comment. We can avoid redundancy by pointing out the interesting characteristics of an image. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]


:::::Captions should be informative, yet not redundant. A reference to a fact or trivia should be added, not "A crumbling Stone Chomp" or "A face only a mother... wait, nobody could love this face" (from [[Stone Chomp]]. The first quote is too obvious while the second one goes a little too far. I suggest a medium, as Monty Mole suggested, to find a balance between the two. Maybe something like "Just like Gargoyle Statues, they live to protect" or "Also called Rock Chomps". That is the kind of information that should be added. As for stating what game the image is from or an obvious description about the appearance, those are already stated in the article or are found in the file description. If any users don't know what captions to add, then they shouldn't add any at all and other users will write a caption for it. My point is not to make it too obvious, yet write something informative. Oh yes, any speculations about looks should be added too. &ndash; [[User Talk:Spike|Spike]][[Image:Spike_sheild_badge.PNG]]


For example, I tried to make the [[K. Lumsy]] caption interesting as it points out the ironies of his personality and his physical appearance. It's informative but also an interesting observation. This is what we are striving for, right? -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

Pipe Plaza talk

On Hold...[edit]

why is it??? Max2

Cuz no one knows about it.. Mada Mada Dane...

I'd be willing and absolutely support bringing this back if enough contributors will sustain this community setting. However, all talk related content will stay at Talk:Main Page – too confusing. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 16:36, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

We should link the Templates that you edit these on to this page. Max2

No we shouldn't. We considered this problem a long time ago.SaudyTalk!

well, what are All the templates??? at least, like, put them at the top of this page. Max2

Look at the bottom of one template. There is a category for them.SaudyTalk!

Hiatus[edit]

Should i put the hiatus template in the page TucayoSig.png Huh?

Updating[edit]

We need a sysop to do update this page, since they can edit protected pages. We need to update the "MarioWiki 2nd Anniversary coming up soon" and replace it with the third one. We should also add some new information there. Also we should have a link to this under the "community" headline in the sidebar, which can be achieved using MediaWiki:Sidebar.
