Hi. Please don't use my signature (or anyone else's for that matter) when signing comments as it makes it really confusing and misleading to who left the comment, and it's impersonation, something we don't allow in MarioWiki. Sign with either ~~~~ or {{User|Billy-Luigi}} Ray Trace^(T|C) 10:08, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Ok sorry that I used your signature, I was just testing a bit and I forgot to delete it. I'm sorry. Billy-Luigi (talk)</nowiki>

That's fine. Just don't do it again. Ray Trace^(T|C) 11:01, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

How did you get that Baby Luigi Sprite and how did you Import it? Billy-Luigi (talk)</nowiki>

You can get the full sheet here. I don't know how to rip it myself though. PS You don't need to copy the </nowiki> tag. Ray Trace^(T|C) 12:35, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

And how do you put tose in mariowiki? Billy-Luigi (talk)

Upload it. Careful not to upload too much personal images though, the max is four. Ray Trace^(T|C) 12:43, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Ok they're up and how do I put it on my page? Billy-Luigi (talk)

....You didn't upload anything Ray Trace^(T|C) 14:09, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

K I have one and how do I upload it? Billy-Luigi (talk)

never mind I know how to do it thnx :) Billy-Luigi (talk)

Last thing: how can you upload Pictures next to eachother Billy-Luigi (talk)

What do you mean? It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:14, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

If you go to my page you see (for example) the picture of New super Mario Bros. and Mario kart wii, how can you put those next too eachother. Like a Gallery of Mario kart 8 for example Billy-Luigi (talk)

Use <gallery> </gallery> and put the files in between these parameters.

<gallery>
File:Nsmb pal cover.jpg
File:MarioKartWiiEuDVDcover.jpg
</gallery>

Preview button

Hé! Please use the preview button to keep the quantity of edits to your userpage to a minimum. If you have any further questions or trouble, you can always ask me! It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:19, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

What do you mean? Billy-Luigi (talk)

There is a "show preview" right next to the "save page" button. You can't miss it. It will be helpful as you learn how to edit the wiki. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:28, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

K thanks man and I have one more question: It worked putting the Pictures there but I dont know how to put text under it? Billy-Luigi (talk)Billy-Luigi (talk) 16:50, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Just add |description right after the file name. Like this:

File:MarioKartWiiEuDVDcover.jpg|Mario Kart Wii

It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:54, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Ow yeah I forgot that one :p And how did you get that signature and how did you put it there? Billy-Luigi (talk)Billy-Luigi (talk) 16:56, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Well, they're actually existing images. And I formatted it like this to have it appear as it is.

[[File:MarioOlympicGames icon.PNG|link=|25px]][[File:NameMarioMKAGP2.png|link=User:Mario|89px]]<sup>[[User talk:Mario|<span style="color:gold">It's-a me!</span>]]</sup>

You can make your own signature page and you can find tips and tricks to do so. If you want to use your own images, you can upload them (and if they're fan stuff, mark it with {{personal-image-sig|Username}}). Keep in mind that the limit for personal images is limited (4)! There are a few rules concerning signatures, so be sure to check them out so it complies.

If you have any additional questions, specific or not, you are encouraged to ask! It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:06, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

K I'll try File:File:Luigi Artwork (alt) - Mario Kart 8.pngFile:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!}

You probably should shrink the images so it can fix in this beautiful box. . It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:25, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Ow Okay File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} Billy-Luigi (talk) 17:24, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Do you know How I can make it shorter? Because It's always such a long text, you can see it in edit. Mine is so long and yours is so short. File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!}

1. Make sure you put the coding into a user signature page : User:Billy-Luigi/sig
2. Once you saved it, you can go to your preferences (on the top right of the screen)
3. Add {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Billy-Luigi/sig}}
4. Make sure the option looks like this: " Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)"
5. Save.

So, once you type ~~~~, the signature you created will automatically be generated. Plus, it will show up as a template ({{User:Billy-Luigi/sig}}) rather than a jumble of coding. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:37, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 17:39, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Okay It worked with only using the four ~ but there is still a lott of junk in the edit :/ File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 17:40, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

with junk I mean that whole coding stuff File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 17:41, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

You did add the {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Billy-Luigi/sig}} part in the preferences page, did you? It's supposed to do that. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:55, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

No forgot. do I need to put it in the new signature box? File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 18:00, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Yeah, just put it there. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:08, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 18:12, 15 April 2014 (EDT) okay It works but why is their 2 times the time?

Because it's in your signature page. Remove it! It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:15, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

how?! ^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 18:25, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 18:29, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

now that extra piece of time is gone but now that whole code is back -_- File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 18:30, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Change it from this

[[File:Luigi Artwork (alt) - Mario Kart 8.png|link=|35px]][[File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png|link=User:Billy-Luigi|45px]]<sup>[[User talk:Billy-Luigi|<span style="color:green">I'm-a Luigi, number one!</span>]]</sup> 17:41, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

To that.

It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:30, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Try adding that {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Billy-Luigi/sig}} thing again, and make sure you save. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:33, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

does this {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Billy-Luigi/sig}} need be together with that? File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} 18:35, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

-_- aaaand the time is back can you please help me?^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 18:37, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

User space warning

Dear Billy-Luigi, It has come to our attention that you are currently in violation of the userspace policy. Please review the policy and abide by it, or else a warning will be issued. Thank you for your cooperation.

You have been editing the user space too much. The goal of MarioWiki isn't to make friends and show off a page, it's to contribute and make one of the best Super Mario encyclopedia of all time. Try editing one of our many articles instead? Thank you. Misty (talk) 17:14, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Hé, this is a new editor here! Will you please just give the user the time to know the basics of wiki-fu instead of slapping him in the face with such ugly notice templates? Thanks. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:17, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

thank you mario File:Baby Luigi Artwork - Mario Kart 8.png^{I'm-a Luigi, number one!} Billy-Luigi (talk) 17:24, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

If you're really concerned about practicing your wiki editing, you can always try our sandbox. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:30, 15 April 2014 (EDT)

Testing

^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 02:45, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

Article

As discussed on the talk page, it's best not to create the articles for Mario Kart 8, especially in the way you did. You should read the Manual of Style as you didn't include any categories or templates, which are both required and as a result you made a stub. Do not create articles like this in the future. If you need help creating an article either ask someone for help or look at similar articles and see how they were made. Yoshi876 (talk)

Ok sorry, but I didn't know how to put the categories. I wont do this anymore but I was still bust editing so... ^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 06:34, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

can I keep editing the page? ^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 06:38, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

It would be nice if you specified the page, Yoshi876, so I can actually guide the user into what to do. But anyway, you can also ask me to help you create pages. ;) It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 14:26, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

What do you mean with specified the page? I'm not good at English sorry ^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 15:02, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

What page exactly did you try to work on? It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:25, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

Oh yeah that was way back (yesterday) I started a page:Toad Harbor but Yoshi876 (talk) said it needed to be deleted because there wasn't much info on the page...so I asked If I could keep editing the page and he answered somewhere else so... sorry for the confusion^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 15:29, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

Oh, but Crazyman14 person seemed to turn it into a long enough article. I think you should try looking at how Toad Harbor is formatted now and try to copy that if you want to create more articles. I am confident that you can continue editing the article. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:35, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

I would love to create even more articles but they asked I needed to wait when the game comes out :/^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 15:37, 17 April 2014 (EDT)

Aboutfile

Hello, Billy-Luigi. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below. {{aboutfile |1=Subject of the image |2=Where you found the image |3=Artist |4=Describe edits, if any |5=Other versions (use file link) }} Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Ray Trace^(T|C) 14:12, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

Oh I didn't know that, thanks I will do that in the future ^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 15:36, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

RE: Toad Harbor

For some reason, someone wrote "Mario kart 8 coruses" at the end of the page, so it appeared under the navigation boxes, as you can see here. I don't know why that was there, I just deleted it. :) File:KoopaTroopa!.png MegaKoopa Talk 20:17, 20 April 2014 (EDT)

Haha, thanks I was just curious :)^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 01:08, 21 April 2014 (EDT)

Thank you for answering :)

Thank you for answering my question. There is so much speculation that I was confused. I am so happy I finally have my answer. User:FireFlower

Your user page's quote

I think you should replace

{{quote|I'm-a Luigi, number one!|Billy-Luigi|Mario Kart Wii}}

with

{{LLQuote|I'm-a Luigi, number one!|Billy-Luigi|[[Mario Kart Wii]]}}

as it prevents the article "Billy-Luigi" from appearing on the list of articles that need to be created. Misty (talk) 21:52, 21 April 2014 (EDT)

Friends?

Hey want to be friends? 11:35, 27 April 2014 (EDT) Daisy 187

Who are you? LOL^{Billy-Luigi Time!} 12:20, 27 April 2014 (EDT)

Music file

I have no idea...maybe try asking another user. -- Digibutter 06:54, 1 May 2014 (EDT)

<youtube>zCLw4P2Ya4k</youtube> love this track :)

RE:Music

The wiki only accepts files in the OGG format, so you need to convert the audio first (Template:Plainlink works well). After that, just upload the file as you would a picture and in the licensing menu, choose "sound clip". To add the audio file into a page, use this template: {{Media |type1=audio |name1=name of file |pipe1=name of article you're putting it on |description1=description for the file |length1=length of the soundtrack in (minutes:seconds) }}

Hope that helped. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 13:10, 1 May 2014 (EDT)

Unfortunately, that site stopped supporting YouTube. Siwel619

I know but you need to convert the video first via YouTube converter
