User Page request

Hey, Porplemontage. I've recently joined the community earlier today with good intention of improving the Super Mario Wiki. However, I am interested in having my own user page without having to wait a week in advance. May you please create one for myself? YoshiRider123 (talk)

Sure. --Steve (talk) 01:35, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

when login?

my bro hasn't logged on recently. He forgot his password and had tried over and over to login, but it said he had made too many recent attempts. He waited at least 45 hours! when can he log in again again? It says to "Try again later", and he tried again... way later! Please help--CosmicRedToad 06:44, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Well... I'm guessing the account doesn't have an email address associated with it. I can reset the password if give me the username and an email address. --Steve (talk) 08:05, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

It does! He put in the temporary one from his email that time it showed the error message!--CosmicRedToad 08:09, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

The Email address is goozalaba@gmail.com, and the username is CosmicBlueToad.--CosmicRedToad 08:19, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

I sent an email with the new password. --Steve (talk) 17:23, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

He tried it and obviously he, tried to login too often recently.--CosmicRedToad 05:54, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

I don't know why his IP has been locked out for so long. He can either use another IP, keep trying, or create a new account. --Steve (talk) 06:57, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Okay! He'll Make "Cosmic Blue Toad" and if it gets blocked, please unblock him. He's not a sock or anything. Okay?--CosmicRedToad 21:45, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Sure. If you want, I can rename the original account to something else then rename "Cosmic Blue Toad" to CosmicBlueToad. --Steve (talk) 21:58, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

No thanks. He chose without the spaces at first, but he likes it better with the spaces in between. He says thank you for all your help!--CosmicRedToad 22:03, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, Thanks, Porple! Now I just have to get a Sysop to redirect my userpage (CosmicBlueToad) to my userpage (Cosmic Blue Toad). Are you a sysop? Can you do that?--Cosmic Blue Toad 22:09, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Sure. And if you forget your password again, don't keep entering wrong passwords. I can reset it for you. --Steve (talk) 22:57, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

BLAH

Hello Porplemontage. I was wondering if it'd be ok for me to put you into a comic I am currently drawing for Userpedia. Don't worry, it won't be anything too big, just some obligatory stuff in the prologue, and then something way later which isn't of much significance yet. So, would that be alright? - Gabumon^(talk) 17:04, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah go for it. --Steve (talk) 17:23, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Sweet, thanks. ^__^ - Gabumon^(talk) 18:00, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Car, Games

Hey I think User:Francis21 and User:Cargames are socks. Can you please block them? Thanks. Boo der dash

Thanks. --Steve (talk) 21:13, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Protection

I need your help to protect the following page: MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive 22. May you please do it?

PS What causes this page to extend like that, but the other archives pages not? I'm trying to solve this issue, but I can't figure out the problem.

Ray Trace^(T|C)

All good. --Steve (talk) 21:44, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

The Super Mario Wiki

Hello,
i would ou ask something. How did you create this Super Mario Wiki? I see it's not from Wikia. Please answer that question. ---Galaxy 2 06:35, 14 September 2010 (UTC)File:SignaturGalaxy2.jpg

Wikia host a lot of wikis, but they don't all come from there. Anyone can install MediaWiki on a webserver and start their own wiki. --Steve (talk) 07:16, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

NIWA

Shouldn't we have a link to the NIWA page in the menu? MrConcreteDonkey 08:51, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

No, the main page is enough. --Steve (talk) 17:59, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Adverts

Or rather, the lack of them. I just want to know whether this will be permanemt or not, just out of curiosity. This Is War 16:16, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations, it's permanent. --Steve (talk) 17:36, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Oops, I made a typo!! But the Adverts? Are they gone forever or not? This Is War 17:22, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

As long as you're logged in you won't see them (and I wasn't commenting on your typo, sorry if it seemed that way, the change is permanent). --Steve (talk) 18:17, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

That's cool! Sorry, I did think that at first, but it's okay now. This Is War 17:51, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Image

Hey, Steve, can you delete this glitched image?:

It has been replaced with a non-glitched version. It cannot be edited, only created - see here for more info on said glitch. Thanks. This Is War 19:35, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Ok --Steve (talk) 19:52, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Forum

Can you help me figure out what the to and BCC mean on the forum?I tried sending something to Pride of the Yankees (or Tucayo) but it kept sending them to me.Please help!YoshiTron 23:17, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

I gave you the direct link to PM me. BTW Steve, can you check the last 2 posts in the problems thread, please? --™ The 'Shroom 00:21, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

E-mail

Hi Steve! The guys at NIWA said that your e-mail (steve@porplemontage.com) is not valid. Do you have any otehr mail we can use as a contact? --™ The 'Shroom 16:23, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Got it, thanks. --Steve (talk) 01:55, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Question

Could you please delete whats in the To be deleted category? Its getting full. ' MileyCyrusSoulja

Looks like Tucayo did some work. --Steve (talk) 01:55, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Sorry. I didnt realize you put your talk responses on YOUR talk page instead of mine. Thats why i never replied. Sorry. So how old are you? I'm 12.

' MileyCyrusSoulja

Hi

You move Wikias to NIWA right? Small heads up, Donkey Kong Wiki(a) is considering a move. Just to let you know ahead of time. Not entirely sure about it yet, I'll keep you updated. HavocReaper48 21:47, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

You know, I do own donkeykongwiki.com and could move them. --Steve (talk) 22:24, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Friends

Hello Steve.Think we can be friends.--User:UltraMario3000

I don't see why not. --Steve (talk) 03:18, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks.BTW why can't I edit my own userpage.--User:UltraMario3000

You should be able to edit it. What happens when you try? --Steve (talk) 21:11, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Well I just can't.Theres no "edit" button on my page.--User:UltraMario3000

Alright, so use this link. Is there a message above the box telling you why you cannot edit? Try to save something. --Steve (talk) 22:54, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Well,theres no message and I edited it,but theres still no link on my page to edit it.--User:UltraMario3000

Never mind.I just found out how to edit my userpage.--User:UltraMario3000

25 Years

I was wondering if you were involved in any events for the Mario series' 25th anniversary. I'm sure you could find some way to help promote the Wiki. Maybe you could get on TV or something.

Ralphfan>>Organized Chaos

Please respond on my talk page.

Sorry about the talk page but no events. --Steve (talk) 02:18, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

User page?

Could you make my user page? Here's a link:--Sig. 20:41, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I made this same request up there (I'm a noob here) so I'm putting it here, if my request has been answered, please do not not make another. Shroom fanatic 73 :)

Yo

Hey Porple. I was wondering if you know what happened to stooben. I asked him about the shroom but he didn't responsed. Do you know what happened to him? GalladeBlades

Nope, I haven't heard anything. --Steve (talk) 03:33, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Question

Hey Steve,I have a question.Aren't you a sysop of your own wiki.--User:UltraMario3000

Yeah. --Steve (talk) 07:48, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Hey

Could you please delete the stuff in the To be deleted category? It has over 50 files in it! ' MileyCyrusSoulja

I think the other sysops enjoy deleting things more than I do. --Steve (talk) 05:08, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi I have a question

Acutally two, but whatever. Number One: When I logged on, I notced my userpage exsisted.Does that mean I got promoted? Number two: Can we be friends? Thanx,Boun C ball.

Your userpage exists because you have been blessed. We are friends. --Steve (talk) 05:08, 11 October 2010 (UTC) Thanx.--Sig ashley 15:21, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

SmashWiki

Is SmashWiki an official member of NIWA? Just wondering. TyphlosionBlaze 00:56, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Not yet. --Steve (talk) 02:25, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Mario Fanon

Hey, Steve, can you set up a fanon.mariowiki.com ? I know you say you have Userpedia, but it isn't NIWA material, and it is general Fanon. We need more Fanon wikis, as posted on the Forums Here. I think it is time to start breaking down Fanon spam on Canon wikis. Plus- Don't you agree on finding out what good Fanon lies in the heads of the thousands of users here? I hope you can set up a subdomain for Mario Wiki, and you can just use the staff here there too. Please respond on my talk page soon, I'm ~Peanut64~ And I Approve This Yoshi. 16:24, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

:(

Whenever you come to your senses, reply... I'm ~Peanut64~ And I Approve This Yoshi.

Looks like you don't read your own talk page. --Steve (talk) 00:55, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Again

Hi Its me again. Many comments ago I told you my problem. I think i figured it out. I checked the User rename log and I WAS renamed as you can see here, but somehow it got reset. Do you know how this happened? Thanks. --Its-a-meYoshi!

Maybe I fixed it. --Steve (talk) 00:58, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Cals

Whats up steve? I just wanted to advise you that the MarioWiki calendars are not really linked to anything, and I was wondering maybe we could put a Mario calendar on the main page for the corresponding month (for example, this month its november, we could put up the november calendar), this way more people would know about them, since they havent been edited (excluding my edits) in a long while. Does this sound good to you? ' MileyCyrusSoulja

We have that on The 'Shroom. --™ The 'Shroom 01:25, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

You do? Show me the link. ' MileyCyrusSoulja

The link to the Shroom is in the side bar. --™ The 'Shroom 03:06, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

We've had the calendars on the main page; they are not going back. --Steve (talk) 03:12, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Why? They arent really linked to any mainspace, and they need more publicity. Almost nobody knows about them. ' MileyCyrusSoulja

I don't see the MarioWiki Mario Calendars on the shroom anywhere, i need a link directly to it. And Tucayo, i have common sense, i know how to get to the shroom. LOL. ' MileyCyrusSoulja

MarioWiki:The_'Shroom/XLIII/Pipe_Plaza. If you want to move it, you can't just do it, you'll have to make a proposal. --™ The 'Shroom 21:12, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi Steve! Could you please install the Plum Script font on the wiki? We would like to use it for something related to The 'Shroom. Thanks! --™ The 'Shroom 02:42, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
