Talk:Mario

message: Wasn't Donkey Kong Jr. his second appearance and the game he appeared in before Mario Bros. The page mentions nothing about it and it just says "after Donkey Kong, Mario starred in "Mario Bros." 104.218.129.50 (talk) 19:19, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mario Bros. as his second appearance 

message: According to this source  Mario is not a normal human but instead a different species of human named "homo nintendonus." So I'm wondering if this is a joke or a real thing. Kazama16 (talk) 12:09, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mario Species 

message: I think in the 2D Games section of the Mario page, we should add a paragraph explaining Super Mario Bros. Wonder, talking about the Wonder Flower that can change the setting, appearances of characters, etc. 2603:6010:8B00:44FF:5099:7BE0:4BA:4D74 (talk) 05:41, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

message: I didn't want to revert instantly and make a mess to cleanup, but I feel the original image of Super Mario Bros. gameplay would be a much better fit here. It's better demonstration of what Mario does with the powerup (and not just the powerup itself), as this article is about the character and not the items he uses. Also, the image has an additional role of showing old Super Mario gameplay. Panini! • 🥪 15:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: @Panini! If that's the case then it should be a video of how Mario picks up a power-up and how he uses it. Not just a picture; it just shows Mario throwing a fireball, but not how power-up actually look, so I added detailed power-up image instead. Although this gif might be useful.

thread_title:  Regarding fire flower (and super mushroom) images 

message: Just as a starting point for discussion:
As it is my favorite part of the article process I will be overhauling Concept and creation to begin; making sure the section is fully comprehensive and cleaning up as I go. I'm not one for working as I go in main space, so I will be rewriting this at User:Panini!/sandbox4.
This will include reorganizing the sections to be about "History", "Characteristics", and "Voice acting". Some details from Characteristics will also be merged here (just as a heads up, while many of these sections will likely be expanded, Characteristics will be shrinking, and by a lot.)

message: I think the article for Mario the character should be changed to Mario (character) and the overall franchise should be called just Mario, like most other video game character articles like Sonic and Crash Bandicoot. 2601:243:C901:4600:4006:2415:2EF7:D279 (talk) 01:52, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey it just weird to see that Mario the character is just titled Mario while other titular video game mascots such as Donkey Kong and Pac-Man have character disambiguation however, you could see the previous discussion about it and it requested move so be happy. NatwonTSG2 (talk) 03:00, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

text: Different articles have different disambiguation for different reasons. Keeping them all the same isn't a valid reason by itself. Sergecross73 msg me 12:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mario (character)? 

message: Check the sources to know more about this topic.     39.50.254.201 (talk) 19:14, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds more like a Kanye story than a Mario one. I don't think it particularly belongs here. Sergecross73 msg me 19:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: My general rule of thumb is anything that affects the character itself; tangentially related events are best for their own subject article instead, and that includes what could be put in the reception and legacy sections. Panini! • 🥪 23:06, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kanye West controversy involving Mario 

message: The pronunciations of Mario in the lead need stress symbols, i.e. ˈ (it’s different than a comma), at the start. 2001:BB6:B84C:CF00:3D6E:3EAD:A212:A54C (talk) 18:43, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
