Regarding your recent pages

Greetings. I first want to thank you for your contributions so far. I understand you've looked at the recent complaints in the referendum talk page and admitted to going a little overboard with the fluffy writing. Your articles were cute, but they do stretch the limits on professionalism. Here are some specific tips going forward:

• Don't use first and second person pronouns in article text. Articles should always be written in third person.
• Make sure to keep an in-universe style. (e.g. describe what Kirby is doing in stages rather than what the player should do)
• Do not use referential humor, unless it regards a specific reference offered by the content itself.
• Do not talk directly to characters or to the reader.
• Don't use questions in main article text. Questions are tolerated in moderation in image captions only.
  • The same rules applies to exclamation marks.
• Don't use emojis in text.

If you are unsure about the preferred writing style, have a look at some of the other stage synopses on the wiki. Most of them were written by me, and you can see my preferred style within. I will be codifying a lot of what I've said to you here in the new policy, so it should be clearer going forward. Cheers, --Fubaka (talk) 02:52, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Noted, noted, and noted! Sorry for any trouble! (talk) 03:10, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Incidentally, I've taken the liberty of adjusting the first page The Adventure Begins to place it within acceptable parameters. If I could get you to take a look at the changes and apply them to Up the Big 'Ol Tree as well, I would appreciate it. --Fubaka (talk) 03:12, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

I'm on my way! (talk) 03:17, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Good going. I've made just a few more minor adjustments to the text to bring it all the way in line. Again, I should thank you not only for doing those pages for me, but also prompting me to more clearly define the writing standards. This should keep everyone satisfied. --Fubaka (talk) 04:04, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

No worries! Coming from a wiki whose audience tends towards the younger side I can understand the desire for more mature editors... *sweatdrop* Thanks for keeping it kosher! (talk) 04:12, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Overcategorization

Regarding recent categories you created (Category:Magazines, Category:Magazine images, Category:Nintendo Power), since most of not many magazine images are from Nintendo Power, I think we could just have Category:Magazines contain all magazine images and articles. I feel like this is category cluttering. ⁠–⁠Wiz (talk · edits) 07:54, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Vipz! I was just trying to replicate the categorization system already employed within Category:Literature, (see: Category:Manga & Category:Novels). If you feel that magazines are an exceptional case, however, feel free to go ahead and change it. (talk) 14:37, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

I see, I've removed Category:Nintendo Power from files and left over Category:Magazine images, just so you know. ⁠–⁠Wiz (talk · edits) 17:31, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

Sources for Rainbow Curse level select images

Greetings, Sunmarsh. I'm sending you this message to ask if you could provide specific sources for the level select screens that you uploaded regarding Kirby and the Rainbow Curse? I saw on your userpage that they came from Archiverse, but I wasn't able to quickly find any specific shots, so if you could come around and add those to the appropriate files, I'd appreciate it. --Samwell (talk) 21:23, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

I suppose I should also mention the three Game Over screenshots you uploaded as well. Those need sources, too. --Samwell (talk) 21:25, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

Hello Samwell, I found those images over two years ago; my web browser search history doesn't go back that far. I remember spending a very long time scrolling through the Archiverse to find them, so I don't imagine it would be easy to find the proper url for them. You might be able to do some sort of reverse image search, I'm not sure. Either way, I don't have the time to devote to such an endeavor. (talk) 00:28, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Edit: This is the page the images were found on: https://archiverse.guide/posts?gameId=14866558073578303340 If you scroll long enough, you will eventually find them all. (talk) 00:30, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Alright. I'll have a look through this, then. --Samwell (talk) 00:43, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Okay, I went and found the sources, so no worries. --Samwell (talk) 06:28, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
