    the official "u did it" thread

    Clearly, your computer has a horrible virus - the only cure is to throw it out the nearest window immediately. Led a field trip today for the ornithology class. One of the students was an avid birder already and found a bunch if birds for me, which was handy, although I had to be careful not...

    Ooof, fun! No time to translate it right now, unfortunately, but Princess Shroob is indeed speaking perfect Japanese there. She likes to end sentences in "wa" (and "wa yo") a lot, which is a very feminine way of speaking (like, if it were English, she'd be speaking with a real fake...

    Requesting edits for locked pages.

    Thanks for pointing that out - I totally forgot that page exited. The category was never admin-approved and indeed useless, so I deleted it, and added a proper category instead, as well as the template, and also added the page to the template and the rules directory.

    I'm in a similar boat in that I can get behind the system, don't care about counts or whatever, and am totally cool with a heart being the symbol next to the button (looks pretty good, actually), but the boxes stand out so much, even with the normal background. I thought it'd be something more...

    the official "u did it" thread

    By sheer coincidence, I sat down next to a TA I had on my field ornithology course 5 years ago, who only just came back to my campus from a different school, so I hadn't seen her all this time. But she still remembered me and was like "hey, I taught you that one time", and then I recognized her...

    Between Pearl's pink hair, the pink diamonds on her space suit and original Holo Pearl, and the double-meaning of Rose's "my Pearl" line, I still think her being Rose / Pink Diamond's Pearl is the most likely option, although I've heard the White Diamond's Pearl theory a couple times now.

    Then it went back on-topic, and then it died, so moving seems less imperative now, imho.

    In theory, we should have that, and then by-series categories, and then by-game categories, for every major type of subject, and then only the most specific ones go on pages. But updating the category system is low on everyones' priority (and I'm still working on rewriting the policy page to be...

    Yeah, I'd say just get rid of it if's overused and problematic. The normal series/game-based sets of enemy categories should have stuff covered already.

    The Official "I'm going away/coming back!" Thread

    I'm glad to hear that. Isolating yourself always just makes things worse: it makes you even more miserable, lonely, and other such feelings. Humans are social creatures: we need support systems.

    Advertising proposals is really bad form (MarioWiki:Courtesy#Fish): "Do not ask other users to vote for anything, period.

    Makes sense, given the function of float. I've removed all the non-functioning floats from the horizontal modes of the infoboxes and from the two bestiaries.

    Infoboxes

    Awesome, they look great, thanks! The only real change I made was making the TTYD image column 180px, the same width as all the tattle pics, since no need for the extra space on wider screens (I did the same thing with SPM, due to fixed catch card widths). Also, PM has float:top while TTYD has...

    I have the NAP-05 cards deck, is it useful for the Wiki?

    Sometimes weird romanizations show up. In this case, it looks like turning double "kk"s into more natural-looking "ck"s, although since they indicate a pause before the consonant, it's a rather misplaced effort; dunno why they'd make it "Kinopico", but then again, it's "Niconico douga", not...

    Really sorry to hear things are so shitty right now, and hope the waves of apathy and destructive thoughts pass, as things done in desperation, rage and sorrow tend to turn to regrets and make things spiral, and no one here wants to see that happen to either of you. Comparing yourself to other...

    Only for Mario, Luigi, Daisy and Koopa; Yoshi, Toad, Iggy and the King are all reasonably short (as is Big Bertha, although whether or not she should really be merged with the fish is a bit iffy, so might wanna leave it). Either way, I'd argue that it's not actually a good thing that the bios...

    No need for sarcasm... Hmm, very true. Although Paper Jam sorta complicates the Paper Mario stuff, but I think the best way for that is to just have a separate M&L:PJ Paper Mario character and assume the rest of the series is normal Mario (kinda like the second Luigi from Super Mario Galaxy...

    Yeah, the "Creation (and development)" section should definitely go through and clear up stuff about the two Donkey Kongs (or more... (User:Walkazo/Essays#Kong_family)). I'd have to think about it before committing to a decision: on the one hand, it reeks of segregating by media type being...

    General Discussion

    My approach is that the first section toggles between "Creation" and "Creation and development" depending on whether or not there actually is development to talk about. (Sorta like how the last section of History can be "Other appearances, cameos and references", or just "Other appearances and...

    Maybe they should get their own infobox, then. But I guess it depends on how many separate entries would have to go in a given page. If you can get dozens of things, a separate template may indeed be the only way. But different games also work different ways, so even then, multiple templates...

    I don't really have means in general besides dinner (and breakfast, if I'm going to be out doing fieldwork), I just snack all the time.

    Uhg, I hate those clunky tables. Anyway, I feel like the drop rates (converted to 1% and 0.33% because all that hover-over stuff is stupid) could just be combined with Template:Badge-infobox. I'll try to get around to it sometime this week - like Wed after work or something.

    Infoboxes

    When I'm at home, I usually wander away to look for snacks or whatever every few hours. When I'm at school, sometimes I stretch and look around the room or out the window, and if the work's really immersive (like stats and graphing), I can just go at it for hours without really noticing hunger.

    Actually, some other languages have it lowercase already (e.g. French (including French-Canadian), Hungarian, Bokmål, Russian), while Canadian/British English weirdly have it uppercase "Expand"/"Collapse" instead of "show"/"hide". Pretty weird, and a pain, but I don't want to have to change the...

    If you could erase 1 character from existence who would it be?

    My headcanon is that SMG2 came before SMG1, concerning the same Star Festival, and just ignore any details that don't really work - although for the most part, it does work, iirc (but I haven't thought about the specifics for a while, so my memories of the specifics are a big fuzzy).

    Re: How the wiki was probably actually created. Sign ups closed, cameos available!

    Yeah, and there's a few other extra RPG infoboxes floating around that'll need to get updated too. But I'd kinda like to focus on getting the bosses/enemies all up to date first, or at least get within spitting distance of being done, before adding to the workload. And after the RPGs, there are...

    Yeah, exactly: once the template got transposed, it all broke down since then it'd use whatever page it was on as the page name. I tried for quite a while to get it to automate properly, but in the end, manually adding the names was unavoidable. Very nifty: I'm all for adding that (with the...

    Also, back in the day, sprite comics were the main form of userfics, whereas now they're mostly prose writing, with a few hand/computer-drawn things, and only a couple sprite comics (last I checked).

    I was taught CPR independently in gym class, swim class, camp and a babysitting course, and not one of them told us anything about musical accompaniment or even provided a beat. The only nifty advice I remember is that the chest-level logo on a shirt is generally where you press.

    Maybe it would be simpler to leave out all the fiddly details, seeing as the NP point itself mentions that it's discontinued after SPM, and just say: Really, it's not even necessary to mention Nintendo Power at all, seeing as its placement higher in the numbered list automatically makes it...

    Trying to get the template to work with a second switch function is gonna be way too much of a hassle. I finally have a day off tomorrow, and was already planning to use that to just do a blow-through of all the TTYD templates, so then it won't be a problem anymore.
