Talk:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

message: In the article on games censored by nintendo, it lists this game as censored for "LGBT elements." 
What's up with that?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.53.59.87 (talk) 18:16, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Is it really necessary to list the abilities of the characters in this article?  Or at any rate, is there any reason only Mario's and Goombella's are listed? CaptainSpam 16:21, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Needs major improvement. Too much of this is characters, who each have mini paragraphs attributed to them. -- A Link to the Past 15:02, July 31, 2005 (UTC)
*Agreed. Can we find some consensus on this? It seems that everything I try to take out just gets put back in, so it'd be good to have something to refer back to before trying again. As an introductory proposal, I suggest we get rid of everything under 'other characters', for starters. If there is no opposition, I shall do this shortly. --InShaneee 21:33, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

message: You know, towards the end, when you and your partner can drop through the roof into the dressing room and come out looking like old-school SMB characters? Shouldn't it be mentioned, at least under Trivia? --Gaming King 05:58, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Under the category "battle system," it says that Paper Mario 2 borrowed the battle system from Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, but that's not really true. Superstar Saga was made in 2003, so obviously Paper Mario 2 just used the same battle system from its first game, Paper Mario, which was released in February 6, 2001.
Superstar Saga was made after Paper Mario.
Of course, my thought is paper mario, paper mario 2, superstar saga, and partners in time are all using the battle system from Super Mario RPG. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.251.185.160 (talk) 01:48, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't we at least have a picture of the seven crystal stars, and provide the name of each crystal star?Gamloverks 16:25, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Crystal Star 

message: The sentence: "Once you beat Bonetail, you can use Flurrie to find a secret pipe which leads to a room with a chest. Open the chest, and you will find a badge that disables you from being hurt for the first five turns," does not cite a reference or provide any useful information within the game that would allow for verification of this statement.
I tried to find a website online that would support this statement, but I was unable to find any articles.
I suggest that we remove this line (and all similar lines that aren't appropriately referenced) or provide a reference (either in-game w/ sufficient detail, or an external website).

message: In the trivia section, it states Vivian is a male in the Japanese version. However, everything I've ever seen that wasn't just fanboys going "OMFG VIVIAN'S A BOY" seems to point to the fact that in the Japanese version, Vivian's gender is at best left to be ambiguous, and that any references to her as a boy could be interpreted as insults (as in when Beldam calls her that) or confusion because Beldam refers to her this way. I think that if a note about Vivian's gender in the Japanese version (as any ambiguities aren't present in the English localization), it should state simply that it's much more ambiguous, unless of course someone has a citation they can provide for this? 69.234.113.160 20:32, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Audience/Stage section 

message: Some issues:
* "The plot is based on Mario as he tries to retrieve the seven Crystal Stars and rescue Peach from the X-Nauts, an alien species introduced in The Thousand-Year Door." How can a plot be based on Mario?
* The reception portion of the lead is skimpy. Try adding in a line on positives and negatives in general.
* "although the majority of locations not featured in previous Mario games" - do you mean are not featured?
* NPCs needs to be written out and linked before you refer to it (in Characters)
* "In particular, the Goomba Professor Frankly must be visited every time Mario retrieves a Crystal Star". How about telling me who this guy is. "For example, Professor Frankly, a Goomba who [...], must be visited every time..."
* "The game focuses primarily on the ventures of Mario, although it will frequently cut to Princess Peach in the X-Naut Fortress." Do you mean Mario is the main character? Then state that.
* "A sequel to the game, Super Paper Mario, was developed by Intelligent Systems and released for the Wii in 2007. The game has greater emphasis on platforming and action than in The Thousand-Year Door, with an absence of turn-based combat and a strong gameplay connection to the Super Mario Bros. titles. The plot of the game is unrelated to that of The Thousand-Year Door, with the new character Count Bleck as the primary antagonist of the game. The game received an average score of 85 percent on Game Rankings.[21]" I'm not sure if the sequel is best put here. Either way, I don't think you have to go into such detail about the other game, that's what the link is for (so no scores).
--Basically, copyediting is what this article needs. Drop me a note when you've addressed the concerns. Cheers, David Fuchs (talk) 02:34, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

message: While I appreciate the good gaith efforts of the IP, the length of the story seems to have spiralled out of control.  Large parts of it also seems to be written from an "in-universe" perspective.  While I am reluctant to simply revert and ditch's all of the IP's work, it definitely needs reviewing. Salvidrim (talk) 02:04, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Go ahead and revert the IP's edits. The best thing to do would probably revert it to just beyond the point at which it first obtained Good Article status. If you are concerned about the IP's feelings, you perhaps should write a nicely-worded message detailing exactly where they have gone wrong. Ashnard Talk Contribs 21:18, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: He keeps adding to it.  I've left him a second message in hopes he'll see it and come over here to at least see why before they're reverted.  If I don't hear from him I'll bring the story back to its GA pre-expansion level. Salvidrim (talk) 23:54, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

text:  to last appropriate Story revision (1-Aug), I'm hoping the IP chimes in here or on his talk page (instead of reverting me and continuing the expansion). Salvidrim (talk) 16:06, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
