Talk:List of Mario television episodes

message: What should be used for each series? For Super Mario World, the only page to have one is Party Line, which uses (SMW episode). Yet with SMB3 and SMBSS, there's (AoSMB3 episode), (Nintendo), (Super Mario episode) and (Mario episode). I think that we should use (SMBSS episode) for the Super Show, and (AoSMB3 episode) for SMB3, as (Super Mario Bros Super Show episode) and (Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode) are kinda long. But whatever we use, it'll still require organizing the SMB3 episodes a bit.--Narlee 03:58, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that even though different countries have different names for the shows, the show's actual title should be used, but abreviated, as the names are a tad long.--Narlee 01:10, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Disambiguation for episode names

message: I have noticed that the Super Mario Bros. Super Show episodes have an infobox. Can I add them to the Super Mario Bros. 3/Super Mario World episodes (as I have some info)? --Yawachary 21:59, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well don't use the SMBSS infoboxes for SMB3 or World, as they have sections that apply strictly to the Super Show, like the plumber's log and Bowser's alter-ego. If you want, I can make up seperate infoboxes for the other shows, just tell me what you want in them, and it shouldn't be a problem.--Narlee 01:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Okay, just the production code, airing number, air date and the writer/writers as there is not much other information (the directors are the same). (This might not be relevant, but for Super Mario World, there could be a mention of Captain N episode as they aired at the same half hour and use the same credits but that might be a bad idea.) --Yawachary 18:25, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Template:Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode and Template:Super Mario World episode. Enjoy! =) I haven't gotten around to using them in any pages yet, so let me know if there are any problems.--Narlee 00:55, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Song Covers 

message: The Super Mario Brothers Super Show uses a much different set of names that we currently use.  Princess Peach was, at the time, named Princess Toadstool and was referred to as Toadstool.  Futhermore, Bowser was never called Bowser in the cartoons.  Instead he was always called Koopa.  I belive that for the sake of reference to the show we should use the names used in the show, not the ones that are currently used.

message: The pictures are great, but not well placed since they (in Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.4) cover up some of the lists. It doesn't look very good with the space that  makes. What to do about it? --Najoj 23:09, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  The pictures 

message: All of the episodes of this series fail the notability guidelines for television episodes. The way for these articles to be improved is through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. That is unlikely to happen, and these only contain overly long plot summaries, trivia, and quotes. Per that, they need to be a small part of this list. If there are no objections, these will be redirected soon. TTN 19:30, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

text: i do NOT agree. We spent a lot of work on these, and this is a lot of infomation. If we take these out, then we will lose all that information. What's the point of Wikipedia without information!?! I believe this should stay the way it is. Willy105 13:32, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I imagine some quantity of time was spent on these articles, and they do contain a lot of information.  If deleted, then some of this information will be lost to Wikipedia.  What's the point of Wikipedia without this information?  Can you provide an argument for keeping this lot of non-notable, un-sourced information; an argument refuting the points listed above?  —  pd_THOR | =/\= | 12:17, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

text: I also do not agree on this! These are good summaries, and are very useful to anyone looking up information on the TV show. Deleting the pages will defeat the purpose of wikipedia.64.39.133.135 11:57, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Unfortunately, that's all they are: plot summaries; TV Tome would also be useful for people looking for this information.  Deleting these pages would be in line with the points noted above by ; have you read them?  —  pd_THOR | =/\= | 12:17, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Episode notability

message: From the arguments above and that Jason Scott has proven that large amounts of time and wasted effort goes into deletion debates, I think it should be restored and kept while being less concerned with the question of notability, and instead focus on whether or not the summaries are factual. Who else thinks it should be restored?
The point is that Wikipedia is not paper. This means Wikipedia hasn't the same space limitations as a paper encyclopedia. The deletion discussion takes the more disk space than the article, because you will still have the article's history in addition you now have a history for the deletion discussion. There is a lack of open-mindedness at how the content criteria can be interpreted as these articles are perfectly acceptable for Wikipedia in this view. Some shows have pages which give a factual description of every last person on the cast. Those are not deleted, so why delete these summaries? --MahaPanta (talk) 16:31, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Real original airdates

message: In regards to the recent IP edits, which I also mentioned in the talk page of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, they attempted to add episodes from the repackaged series, "Club Mario". I told them not to include it as a separate section since it's a repackaged version of TSMBSS. Even after telling them my rationale, they reverted my edits claiming that "I specifically told you what was different, the original live action parts which ARE NEW, do this again you will most likely get banned" - as seen here. I will wait until my Wikipedia:3RR to undo the changes. If they want to revert the edit - I will redirect them to the talk page so that we can discuss it - since the addition of "Club Mario" was not discussed here at all.

replies: text: I am not denying facts. It is an interesting resource, but they can't be used per WP:Original Research. Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 02:39, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to clarify what WP:Original Research is, "The phrase "original research" (OR) is used on Wikipedia to refer to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist." Also , "To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented. The citation you gave me does not directly state that Club Mario exists as a series. Instead, it only lists a bunch of copyrights owned by DIC Entertainment - in alphabetical order. Looking into the citation more, it does list two versions of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show. For example - "The adventures of Sherlock Mario (Club Mario) By Eric Allaman" and "The Adventures of Sherlock Mario (1989) By Haim Saban & Shuki Levy". However, since no additional secondary citations exist to prove that they are 100% distinct from each other, it's best to merge the information on list of "Super Mario Bros. Super Show" episodes. I even provided citations proving the existence of the series on top of the list of episodes, and even fixed the links in the main Wikipedia article. Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 15:27, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Club Mario 

message: In the wake of this discussion that merged The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! with The Legend of Zelda (TV series), the TLOZ episode list got orphaned and I was looking for a new home for them. This list would be the most logical target, if not for the name. It occurred to me that collecting the three Mario animated shows into one list doesn't actually make a lot of sense. SMBSS is a completely different continuity. SMB3 and SMW are more closely related but they're still separate shows with distinct titles and settings, so they're not really connected in the same way that multiple seasons of a single show are. Thus, I propose:
# Merging the Legend of Zelda episode list into this page and retitling it to "List of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episodes"
# Splitting the episode lists for SMB3 and SMW to their respective pages, which are not terribly long, and show pages with episode lists directly on the page are fairly common
