User talk:LED42

Hello! And welcome to my Talk Page!

Status: Active. My current project is to create missing pages for SMB3 levels. My goals are reaching 1000 edits and creating 15 pages.

Talk Page Rules Follow every rule on the Wiki's rules page. Don't send illegal content (read the wiki rules for more details). No vandalism, insulting, flaming, trolling, spamming, edit other users' comments or swearing. Please respect. You can send me a Friend Request, but only if I know you enough and/or you helped me with something. If I accept, then you can use my Friend Userbox on your page, you can find the code on my main page. If you want to talk on other site, feel free to PM me on the forum. Have fun!

Italics

Hi. Good job on your recent edits. Just remember that when naming game titles, we always write in italics. In case you didn't know, the formatting is done by simply adding two apostrophes before and after the name (e.g. ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' → New Super Mario Bros.)

Thanks. Mario JC 17:46, 27 August 2017 (EDT)

Construction

Hey, just letting you know that you should not include the construction template on your user page, as including it will list your page under Category:Articles under construction which is meant for mainspace articles. If you wish to use the template, please copy the source coding from {{construction}}. Thanks. 13:11, 28 August 2017 (EDT)

Just removed, I didn't know. Sorry. LED42 (talk) 13:16, 28 August 2017 (EDT)

Also, if you want to see how your edit looks without finalizing the page, click "Show preview". This will let you see your change without saving, so you can safe everything in one edit and not flood the recent changes with several edits to one page, like your user page. 16:11, 28 August 2017 (EDT)

Userboxes

Hola. Just a suggestion, but I think you should remove the thumb parameter in your userbox images. Have a look at one of my userboxes for an example. Not ordering you or anything, but I think it would look a lot better.
Ultimate Mr. L (Talk-Contribs-Stats) 15:04, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

Wow. Thank you! It looks a lot better now. LED42™ (talk – edits) 15:11, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

RE: Names in other languages

Info here. 22:23, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

Thanks. LED42™ (talk – edits) 22:27, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

Flag Images

We already have the flag of Spain, File:Flag of Spain.png. File:SpainFlag.png will be deleted. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 23:35, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

Ok. I've changed the image of the userbox. LED42™ (talk – edits) 23:42, 1 September 2017 (EDT)

Minor edits

Hello! Just so you know, instead of putting "minor edit" in your edit summaries when making a minor edit, you should instead click the box that reads "This is a minor edit" underneath where edit summaries go. --TheFlameChomp (talk) 21:35, 2 September 2017 (EDT)

He appears to be using the mobile version, which doesn't have this feature. 21:36, 2 September 2017 (EDT)

Oops. I have never used the mobile version before. --TheFlameChomp (talk) 21:38, 2 September 2017 (EDT)

RE:Signatures

You need to change your current signature. Users are allowed only one signature page. 21:26, 11 September 2017 (EDT)

Note Block

I would like to see a picture of the "golden" note block, as the description of a "pink" note block was incorrect (they were clearly orange in both the original and in the SNES version). Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:27, 12 September 2017 (EDT)

Check the imagen I've uploaded. LED42™ (talk – edits) 09:45, 13 September 2017 (EDT)

Image* LED42™ (talk – edits) 09:45, 13 September 2017 (EDT)

Honestly looks about the same to me, with the only difference being the standard "GBA remake has less saturation" thing going on. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 14:05, 13 September 2017 (EDT)

Proposal

Just letting you know that your Invincible Category proposal hasn't actually ended, it still has one more day. Also, the votes are not in the favor, so it wouldn't be marked as pass at the moment. 16:18, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

I decided to end it, do I need to wait one more day? LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:22, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Okay, I can cancel it for you. Just a reminder, you can't cancel a proposal you've created after three days has passed. After which, you have to contact a staff member. 16:26, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Thank you. I'll take care of that the next time. LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:28, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Whoop, actually I can't do that. You have a good reason other than just "I want it to end". Best just let it play out. 16:26, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Honestly, I have no other reason, so, I'll just wait. Is the same thing if that's done later. LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:33, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Another thing, you have helped me a lot, and I am very grateful about that. So, do you want to be friends? Maybe I can help you on something later! LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:40, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Sure, why not :) 16:45, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Nice! So, here's the userbox!

{{userboxp|border=#FF0000|mainbkgd=#FF5555|codebkgd=#FF0000|codecolor=#000000|code=[[File:StarMK8.png|thumb|50px]]|msg=This user is friend of [[User:LED42|LED42]] ([[User talk:LED42|talk]]).}} LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:47, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Just remove the thumb thing, I forgot that. LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:50, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Something ended bad... LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:51, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Added. And fixed this problem, too :) 16:54, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

Yep. Thank you :) LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:57, 14 September 2017 (EDT)

RE: Personal template

You're allowed to make a status template, so long as you plan on using it on more than one page. If you only plan on using it on one page (your main page, for example), just design it there.

My status template, User:Alex95/status, is used on my main and talk page. If you want to create one, you would do so at User:LED42/status. More info here. 17:46, 17 September 2017 (EDT)

Thanks. LED42™ (talk – edits) 17:55, 17 September 2017 (EDT)

Friend Request

Hey, would you like to be friends with me? I just created my own friend userbox. LuigiMaster123 19:05, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

Wow. I am surprised. Of course! You can take the code from my page. LED42™ (talk – edits) 19:10, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

Foreign names

Hey, just so you know, the foreign names listed under "names in other languages" sections must be officially from Nintendo. Mario & Wario was only released in Japan, so I reverted the Spanish name you've added to Star. In the future, please be sure that the names you add are official - in the past, we've had a lot of fan-translations on the wiki (and probably still do), but our goal is to keep it only official. LinkTheLefty (talk) 11:30, 11 October 2017 (EDT)

I see your point. Don't worry, I'll be sure to add official names the next time. LED42™ (talk – edits) 13:01, 11 October 2017 (EDT)

SMB3 Articles

First of all, I know TheFlameChomp (talk) told you that Lord Bowser (talk) was going to build the remaining SMB3 articles, but he has since abandoned the project, so no worries there.

Regarding the level article you're making, it's looking good so far! I noticed a few things are missing, so why don't you take a look at a different level, say World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3), and see what you can add or correct. 16:11, 12 October 2017 (EDT)

Good idea! I'll check that page. Yes, I asked him and said me the same thing. Thank you! :) LED42™ (talk – edits) 16:14, 12 October 2017 (EDT)

GBA Screenshot Uploads

What are you using to take screenshots? They are turning out blurry. If you are using an emulator regardless, maybe there is wrong setting being used or something. If it isn't an emulator and is the Virtual Console or something, I suggest trying out some emulators. GBA screenshots should be 240x160. Don't resize the screenshots in an image editor. That won't help. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 22:35, 12 October 2017 (EDT)

I'm using my phone where I have a Game Boy Player version, since I don't own a GBA. I simply take a screenshot, and remove the unnecessary parts of it. That's the reason of those images being of that size. Sorry for any inconvenience, but that's all I can do right now. LED42™ (talk – edits) 22:42, 12 October 2017 (EDT)

Had a feeling mobile but Game Boy Player? Emulator from the App Store or Google Play? Are you using the mobile's screenshot taker (equivalent to prtscr key on a Windows computer)? See if the emulator has a screenshot feature. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 00:36, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Yes, I'm using the screenshot taker of the mobile. The emulator is from the Windows Phone Store, and no, I checked everywhere in the emulator and it doesn't have a screenshot feature. The only things are the D-Pad settings and Camera settings (which is used to speed up the game, instead of screenshots). LED42™ (talk – edits) 10:11, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Alright. For right now, tag your uploads with {{image-quality}}. You can insert this in the description right before clicking upload in Special:Upload. I'll try to get back to it or someone else will. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 15:04, 13 October 2017 (EDT)

Thanks. LED42™ (talk – edits) 15:20, 13 October 2017 (EDT)
