[edit] Mario Series
The name of the article should be Mario series, not Super Mario Bros. Series. This is because the Super Mario Bros. Series is the Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, and 3, which we should be talking about all the Mario games.--Mr.Mario 192 04:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
- Isn't that just original research? These are all part of the same series. Unless you could get a reliable link that says what your saying, this is just your opinion. →041744 07:15, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
Well, you don't see "Super Mario Bros." on every title game. Ask anybody outside that knows Mario, they would all call it Mario series. Super Mario Bros. Series was just a series of side-scrollong games with the title "Super Mario Bros." in all of them. --Mr.Mario 192 02:13, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Oh, yeah?? Then, I have something to show you... Go to the Mario article. You will see that there's a section titled "Super Mario Bros. Series", which is composed of the games: Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, 3, Deluxe, and New Super Mario Bros., to just list some games. So it's better you check every article to check any circumstances involving you having the page of just one sub-series that includes other games that are not from the sub-series, such SM64 and Galaxy. --Mr.Mario 192 14:29, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- Have you not read the WP:Be Bold article? it states "The Wikipedia community encourages users to be bold when updating articles. ". I see your point, but I still stand by mine, so go ahead an move the page, you wont catch me doing it.→041744 13:05, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Smbtitle.png
Image:Smbtitle.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] New Article/Section?
Maybe we should have an article (or at least a section) about the series' powerups and items. I'm just saying. ChromeWulf ZX (talk) 22:25, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
- No, most of these links are declared unworthy of articles, most of whish are item articles. Also there was once a article for that but it got deleted like Zelda items and Metriod items.→041744 23:19, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Question block merger
Has so little notability, it would make a two sentence mention here, but it really shouldn't be its own article. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 01:29, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Merger of Mushroom Kingdom and Bowsers castle
Lets be honest, neither of those articles has any references, and as popular as Mario is, they are not notable in and of themselves. They are notable as part of the Mario franchise, and so they should have trimmed down mentions in this article. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 20:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- This article has plenty of refrences, but mushroom kingdom not so much, so i see your point. I'll merge it, if there are no objections, trim it seriously down.→041744 04:34, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
if mario come out 1985/2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.225.80.160 (talk) 22:43, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
what if we just merge them into an article entitled Locations in the Mario series or something? and i could include all of the main settings from the mario games. each game would be a section and they would be listed by release order.76.27.215.219 (talk) 19:03, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- The merger was already done, and that was ruled out because there are zero references, not even a few, so a locations article would also be totally unreferenced. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:12, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
