MarioWiki:Proposals
A proposal section works like a discussion page: comments are brought up and replied to using indents (colons, such as : or ::::) and all edits are signed with the signature code ~~~(~). How To
The times are in EDT, and are set so that the user is more likely to be online at those times (after school, weekend nights). So for example, if a proposal is added on Saturday night at 11:59 PM EDT, the deadline is the next Saturday night at 8:00 PM. If it is indeed a minute later, the deadline is a day plus 15 hours (Sunday), as opposed to a day minus 4 hours. New FeaturesNone currently RemovalsNone currently ChangesMonobook ReskinThis may sound VERY insane to all of you, but I would like the wiki reskinned to black? This is not because it looks slicker (though I think it does :P ), it is because it saves power. Just use www.blackle.com as an example (Currently 112,468.241 Watt hours saved). If this is accepted, anyone who likes the white can just ask me to make the wiki look how it used to again. Proposer: and SaudyTalk! 23:49, 24 July 2007 (EDT) Support

CommentsYou can change the text color you know. We'd have light blue text, it looks nice.SaudyTalk! Should we perhaps take it up with Porplemontage? He did create the default monobook and you can't do anything without his permission regardless of whether this proposal is won. Ask him first.Knife (talk) 00:17, 25 July 2007 (EDT)
Don't do it. Hk, it's dark and creepy. I'm not trying to insult, but make your own Emo monobook, don't change bright colors most of us enjoy. Max2 (talk) Either way, Steve will say no. Take back that Emo comment if you know what's good for you.SaudyTalk! All I'm saying is, go be dark and creepy somewhere else. There are a lot of people here who hate black. Max2 (talk) More than you 3 who like it. Max2, this has NOTHING to do with black or how it's cool. It's about the fact that it consume less power. Gofer It'll consume less power because NO BODY WILL JOIN WHEN THEY THINK WERE ALL GOTHS OR SOMETHING. And then we'd have to change the logo, which teve would like never say yes to, I've heard. Max2 (talk) The power play is that black costs less energy to power up.SaudyTalk! and then there would be a huge decrease in new guests. Face it, Mario is for kids. Kids like bright. Not dark. Max2 (talk) If it costs less energy to run, that means it also costs less MONEY....SaudyTalk! but at the cost of less users. Max2 (talk) Don't we want more users? Isn't Steve on a frugal streak as of now? I mean, look at the ads!SaudyTalk! Why is black instantly associated with evil, creepy, Goth, and Emo? That's actually a bad stereotype, you guys. Jeez. Because something is dark, that doesn't mean its diseased or something.SaudyTalk! It doesn't cost me anything more or less. The "causing less energy to run" argument takes place on the user's side because their monitor will use less energy to display the site. --Steve (talk) 15:55, 25 July 2007 (EDT) That's how i thought it would work. Too bad for me!SaudyTalk! Splitting the Jump pageThe Jump page has many officially named jumps with enough content for an article on the page. Should they all be split?

Oppose MergeCommentsYou are offering Support Split and Oppose Merge. That's not fair. :P - Cobold (talk · contribs) 14:58, 26 July 2007 (EDT) Hmm, what a weird mistake I made.Knife (talk) 15:02, 26 July 2007 (EDT) Merging Macho GrubbaWe have a separate articles for many forms, but should Macho Grubba get to keep his article? We have articles on simple forms like Fire Mario or Cape Mario, but we do not have articles on Mr. L and Rookie (Bowser's alternate alias in MLSS). Does Macho Grubba deserve the same fate?

CommentsMerging Conjectural Minor NPC articlesDo each of the conjecturally named Minor NPCs deserve an article? Are the NPCs in the Paper Mario series more special than other NPCs in the other RPGs just cause they have tattles? You decide.

CommentsMerging Piranha Plant in the Generator with Goop GeneratorEssentially, the Piranha Plant in Generator is part of the Goop Generator, so does that mean they have to be on the same article? Proposer: Knife (talk) 14:34, 26 July 2007 (EDT) (started by Stumpers (talk)) Support MergeOppose Merge

Why did the above vote by me get removed? What's wrong with it? I have a reason. Please explain yourself. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 16:05, 26 July 2007 (EDT) Mario is a part of the Mario Bros, shall I merge them? And shall we merge the Koopalings into Koopaling? Max2 (talk) Ummm... sure? I didn't even vote and I'm being attacked...Knife (talk) 16:33, 26 July 2007 (EDT) You're the one that proposed it. Max2 (talk) not me.
Proposing it doesn't mean I support... sheesh.Knife (talk) 16:35, 26 July 2007 (EDT) Sorry. And, the plant is part of the generator. Not THE generator. Max2 (talk) Merging Yoshi (species) with the Yoshi colorsDo the colors of Yoshis deserve articles? Most are color variants of the Yoshi (species). Does this mean we have to mere them all? Proposer: Knife (talk) 14:34, 26 July 2007 (EDT) (started by Ultimatetoad (talk)) Support MergeKnife (talk)There can be a section about the colors of Yoshis, similar to Toads. I don't see many distinctive properties about the Yoshi colors and they should be merged into this article. Oppose Merge
CommentsMiscellaneousCreating a New Section For Merges/SplitsWith a lot of merging and splitting going on (see sections above), and us bringing many of them up on this page, do we really need another section just to keep it easier to group?

Oppose New SectionCommentsWow, this is getting insane. Of course. I was going to do this tonight, even on my bad laptop. Can we just screw this and do it?
