    What do we do with Super Smash Bros?

    The thing about that is that you're splitting them across two pages in a non-obvious way. If we were going the whole hog and just merging everything to "List of Super Smash Bros. enemies", I would understand getting rid of those pages. But splitting it across Subspace Army/List of Smash Run...

    Nintendo's Arcade Archives(Orginal Mario Bros and Vs. Super Mario Bros coming)

    Re: Nintendo's Arcade Archives - DONKEY KONG! Watched the Treehouse except of Arcade Archives there - it has three versions, the original (bugged) JP version, the fixed JP version *and* the international/US version. So both level orders. Well, they didn't exactly have to hunt it down. It was...

    What do we do with Super Smash Bros?

    Okay, as you may have noticed on the Wiki, I'm going through and remerging the Subspace Army enemies to that page, per the proposal. HOWEVER... there are seven enemies (Generators, Glices, Glires, Glunders, Mites, Poppants and Roturrets) which reappeared in the Smash Run mode of SSB3DS...

    Mario Portal

    They're never going to call it by a name it has never received in the English-speaking world. There's a reason 2J became "Lost Levels" in Super Mario All-Stars (and that's not just because it's basically DLC in a pre-DLC world). Or do you also object to them not calling the SMW prequel Yossy...

    Mario Portal

    Yeah. Even as soon as SMB3, Bob-Ombs moved over to the "main" games. By SMW the likes of Pokeys, Pigits & Ninjis were bleeding in. Every time Peach is playable, they homage SMB2 with her floatiness. Shy Guys & their derivatives keep showing up, as does Birdo(s). Captain Toad even chucks the...

    'Shroom Spotlight

    The earlier SML levels are covered on their respective World articles. Can move those over to the level pages and just cut the descriptions down to match the one-sentence ones on the SMB/2/3 world articles. EDIT: Okay, World 1-1 (Super Mario Land)‎‎ is started in earnest. Throwing it open to...

    Donkey Kong Wiki merge thread

    As I just said over on MarioWiki talk:DKWiki Portal, if you want to use it as a landing spot for visitors who would have gone to dkwiki.com as the merge proposal suggests, well frankly, it needs a serious overhaul if it's to be a significant page - apart from one category change, it hasn't been...

    What do we do with Super Smash Bros?

    On the face of it, there's not too much "merging" to be done - the descriptions already on Assist Trophy seem adequate. The bigger question is about edge-case stuff like Midna - she's there primarily as an assist trophy, but she's also there on the Wolf Link Mystery Mushroom costume in Super...

    Unimplemented Proposals

    DKL boss articles are done.

    Unimplemented Proposals

    Done the DKC(1) boss levels now. Might do DKL, but probably won't do the DKC2/3 or DKL2/3 ones any time soon - I had a convenient save file for DKC1, don't feel like playing entirely through all the other games just to do this!

    Dark Theme

    You can customise your common.css, monobook.css or vector.css file (monobook default). Just find a wiki using a dark theme, and nick their stylesheet.

    I have the 30th Anniversary books, what can we do with them?

    Well, creating a page for the Memorial Book would probably help!

    The (series) pages kind of sucks, don't they?

    Proposed making some changes to the Donkey Kong, Yoshi & Wario series pages. I think the duplication involved currently makes them unfixable, so getting rid of that is, if not a panacea, at least a necessary step.

    It does and it doesn't. The US manual talks about "Nitro Grand Prix" and "Nitro Cup" (both as opposed to Retro GP/Cup). The UK manual mentions only "Nitro Grand Prix" (replacing the mention of "Nitro Cup" in the latter instance, probably because they realised "Cup" was a typo), again as opposed...

    Translation request thread

    Asked this a while back in the KC Deluxe thread. Should probably have put it here - some questions on the Super Mario Land manga - http://imgur.com/a/BPYbA - not asking for a full translation, just a quick summary... 1) What's the deal with the robot costume Peach wears? I presume it's to do...

    Your favourite examples of Rare Sentences on the wiki?

    Yeah, I was thinking of that too. It's one thing to have that as alt-text, quite another as a caption ([[File:Image.ext|alt=State the obvious|Caption]]).

    Some questions on the Super Mario Land manga - http://imgur.com/a/BPYbA - not asking for a full translation, just a quick summary... 1) What's the deal with the robot costume Peach wears? I presume it's to do with her being jealous of Daisy, but why is it there, and what does "it" tell Mario...

    Manga coverage: Kodansha's Super Mario

    Yeah, thought not (hence the NOT), but wanted to check. Which one's that from? So SML (v1) page 104, top-right panel is essential in your opinion? :raisedeyebrow:

    Manga coverage: Kodansha's Super Mario

    Okay, I'm going through the Super Mario Land adaptation one and some "wuh" images that, at least, merit comment. I presume we do NOT want the actual scans of naked Mario or Mario imagining throwing a superball up Peach's skirt anywhere near the wiki?

    Worst Mario Game?

    Of the games I've played*, Super Mario Sunshine. That thing put me off games for years, not just Mario games. *Which is most of the "mainline" games, including Super Mario Land & SML2, but not all - notably, of the games named here, I haven't played NSMB2. Nor the Mario Party games, Hotel Mario...

    I suppose. With the hiding and the tiny projectiles, still not ideal though.

    Super Mario Maker

    That would require you to be able to string your levels together as worlds for public consumption (also, at least twice as generous a default level limit). The one I'm always expecting as payfer DLC is the Koopa Kids (sorry, Koopalings). Themes like Desert are probably likely too - or would be...

    The CAPTCHA

    That visual captcha in registration is literally impossible, as far as I'm concerned. For the first time in my life, I had to resort to an audio captcha - and even after hearing the letters read out, I *still* couldn't see half the letters in the image! I'm sure it dissuades (some) spambots...
