I can't put this where I want to so I'm putting it here
I'm trying to create an account on FEW but whenever I try it comes up as an internal error-how do I get past this?Ghist (talk) 18:42, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
- They likely have the same issue we had earlier this week. You will want to go to Grifkuba and tell them about this. --Fubaka (talk) 20:43, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
Nintendo Switch Online
Should we mention in the news that Kirby's Adventure was released on Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online? The Mario Wiki mentions NES game rereleases on Nintendo Switch Online. Luigi1234 (talk) 13:46, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Nintendo's news article about that was referenced on the game's article Kirby's Adventure under the attribute "Release Date(s)", though neither a reference for the version on, or an article NES Classic Edition yet exists as far as I'm aware. Either way, I think we're firstly needing a cleaning up of the wiki and improvements on the Help & Policy pages, many of these are pretty outdated and poor in comparison to other wikis', so until then, suggest/ask and/or implement whatever you think is valuable, and references before they're lost are always good to store somewhere even if there exists a better to-be-made place but you're not up to creating it, but just don't place references too far away from suitable locations. Of course, that should refer to situations where your way seems more suitable than the way the wiki's current policies suggest. --Viperision (talk) 14:17, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- If I may interject, this has nothing to do with the NES Classic Edition, nor should 'cleaning of the wiki' take priority over important coverage of recent events on the wiki. That said, I don't think this particular event is notable enough to warrant being placed on the News section, given how many times Kirby's Adventure has been re-released in the past. --Fubaka (talk) 18:19, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oops.. didn't notice quite well that Luigi1234 asked about mentioning that in the News section of the main page - instead I thought he was asking about mentioning it generally. Since that was the case I thought, I then said it was mentioned on game's article already, then I also continued on commenting on what's actually not referenced yet (and that is/are Nintendo's news article(s) about NES Classic Edition). I think the rest is clear if you look it from my previous point of view that I described. Well, now that I understood the message correctly, I am not arguing that 'cleaning of the wiki' should take priority, it should not even interfere with the News section in way that blocks, well, the news. Thanks for understanding and I'm sorry for I misunderstood the original message. --Viperision (talk) 19:41, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn release
Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn has released in all regions that it is confirmed to be releasing in, but the home page thing still says that it has been released in most regions, which makes it seem that it will release in more regions at a later date. JRJ007 (talk) 15:26, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
- I just updated the template, but it might take some time for the main page to update. Shouldn't take long, though. -YFJ (talk · edits) 16:45, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
Kirby Wiki?
Why is the front page bearing the title "Kirby Wiki"? The wiki's name is WiKirby Results May Vary (talk) 20:39, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
Main page link
On the Kirby Wiki page the Kirby 64 link in the 'Did you know' section doesn't work, so it should probably get fixed soon. -JRJ007 17:46, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
Default Skin
For those of you who don't know me, I'm tacopill, one of the people who run things behind the scenes.
The current default skin has been with the wiki since the wiki's inception, but sadly, we have no one around to maintain it any more.
You see, it's a custom skin that doesn't get updated when MediaWiki has a new versions out, and therefore it needs to be maintained by volunteers outside of MediaWiki's main programers. They would help make sure any new bugs, inconsistencies, etc. that show up are taken care of.
With no one in grifkuba, or any of our hosted sites, affalites, etc. around to help do so, we are asking your community to discuss amongst yourselves what skin should be the default one?
The current one will still be available for anyone who doesn't want their personal preferences changed.
This is more about what the site determines is the default skin to show to regular viewers.
User:Results May Vary has made Kirby-fied versions of Monobook and Timeless, so you can test out when you have a moment.
Please make sure, when testing them out, to also include testing them in different browsers, on mobile and desktop, and more.
Thank you, Tacopill (talk) 03:27, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- I like Monobook more than Timeless, but I do think the general style is an improvement over the existing design. The pink colors and star pattern feel more fitting for a Kirby wiki than solid blue. Scrooge200 (talk) 03:51, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Monobook is my preferred design interface. It just screams "Kirby" information in one easy to access and convenient place! – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 04:04, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- I prefer Monobook over Timeless as well, but if Tacopill makes Timeless the default skin, i don't mind. Otherwise i prefer monobook Results May Vary (talk) 04:07, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Like the others, I prefer Monobook over Timeless, mainly due to the cleaner look of the main page with Monobook active. Feel free to use timeless if it's easier though. --Fubaka (talk) 06:42, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- How long should it be until the final decision is made? In 1-2 weeks' time? Results May Vary (talk) 23:26, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Obsessive Mario Fan File:Mario Statue KSS sprite.png 21:12, 2 August 2019 (UTC) - While MonoBook is my favorite, this wiki's layout isn't very friendly to my device at all, and as such Vector is the skin I use most. I don't really care too much for Vector, but it's the only one my device can tolerate. -YFJ (talk · edits) 01:18, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
