Have ideas on how to improve the Super Mario Wiki Forum? This forum is still in its beginnings. New boards? A different skin style? Something entirely different? Post it here (be reasonable) and the administrators will look at it to see if it's possible and if it's a good addition.

I personally would like to see Ranks on the forum (for example, at registering, you are a Goomba, then at 50 posts, Koopa Troopa, 150, Paratroopa, and so on). Is this possible to set on a phpBB 2 board?
 
Yeah, it's possible. Post a list of some good ones up until 1000+. When you reach 1000 posts you can edit your own title through your profile.

1-25 posts: Goomba
25-75 posts: Koopa Troopa
75-150 posts: Boo
150-250 posts: Piranha Plant
250-350 posts: Fire Flower
350-500 posts: Bob-omb
500-700 posts: Mushroom
700-850 posts: Shy Guy
850-1000 posts: Superstar
1000+ posts: Custom Title unlocked; edited from profile

There's a good mix of the common enemies and common items of the Marioverse.
 
They have to go from crappiest enemy to a big enemy, like from Goomba to Bowser, with each enemy tougher than the last. While that could easily be debatable, putting Piranha Plant before Fire Flower and Mushroom, for example, really doesn't make any sense.

Revised Entry, with just enemies:

1-25 posts: Goomba
25-50 posts: Koopa Troopa
50-100 posts: Blooper
100-175 posts: Shy Guy
175-250 posts: Piranha Plant
250-350 posts: Lakitu
350-450 posts: Monty Mole

600-750 posts: Bob-omb
750-900 posts: Bullet Bill
900-1000 posts: Bowser
1000+ posts: Custom Title

I eliminated items because they get too confusing. Is that better?
 
I think I will go with:

[mwiki]Goomba[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Koopa Troopa[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Monty Mole[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Spiny[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Cheep-Cheep[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Blooper[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Shy Guy[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Bob-omb[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Whomp[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Lakitu[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Bullet Bill[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Hammer Brother[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Chain Chomp[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Sparky[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Dry Bones[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Piranha Plant[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Boo[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Magikoopa[/mwiki]
[mwiki]Bowser Jr.[/mwiki]
[mwiki]King Bowser[/mwiki]
Custom

Or something similar.
 
Might get a bit confusing with me around, eh?
 
I want to be able to view posts in a topic from the newest to the oldest. This view is useful if you've made a topic and want to quickly see replies, or for seeing your rating in "Rate the above user's sig games".
 
That feature is right below my post as I speak. Go to the bottom of any thread, and in the "Oldest First" select box, make it "Newest First".
 
Goomba 1
Koopa Troopa 50
Monty Mole 100
Spiny 150
Cheep-Cheep 200
Blooper 250
Shy Guy 300

Whomp 400
Lakitu 450
Bullet Bill 500

Magikoopa 850
Bowser Jr. 900
King Bowser 950

That's the final thing as of this minute. Ranks are subject to change without warning. But you have one of those Wiki Sysop ranks, so don't worry about it.

Now I can read that.
 
Shouldn't we change the ranks so it fits the Wiki Alliance?

Like Kremlings and Kritters?

Or Magons and Unithorns?

I don't know. My guess would be to make a list mixing characters from the different game series we cover. So take the Mario list and take some out and add in others from different series.
 
As for a new skin style you could make it Bowsers Castle background. *Also mabey Wasp Hive for DK Wiki*
 
Link in the banner

The link saying "wiki" in the banner points to www.mariowiki.com/index.php/Main_Page. Broken.

Also, mwiki tags around [mwiki]Main Page[/mwiki] links to Main+Page rather than Main_Page.
