| The past few days I was importing earlier page histories of some Super Mario Wiki articles into various Fandom wikis. Keep in mind that doing so is still '''not allowed on wikis that I host''': the reason I did it there is because it's forking from that website piece-by-piece, and most of the contributors exist on Fandom locally.

| == Mario ==
| |
| | |
| Hi, I just wanted to fill you in on some updates, since we've been less collaborative this month.
| |
| | |
| The most major thing is that I've been manually importing content from the Super Mario Wiki to established Fandom wikis, and I have tried talking to others about this beforehand. The SMW is hopelessly ruined, corrupt, and nowhere remotely close to what it once was. The good content honestly should've been moved to Fandom years ago.
| |
| | |
| That being said, I still don't want manual imports on wikis that I host (I gave you more leeway on Yoshipedia and B-K Wiki since those are yours). But on Fandom, most of the accounts exist locally.
| |
| | |
| Anyway, to get to my point, I want to break away from the SMW completely. Not necessarily the users, since me and Skurvy are on good terms and Hewer safeguards Fanonpedia. But to fulfill this, I'd want to update any articles imported into Nintendo, Mario, or SSB wikis to go from pointing to the SMW article to either of those wiki. However, since this is an unauthorized "reverse-fork," I'd update the disclaimer template to link to the page history, so then it's crystal-clear that all the contributors are attributed and that there's no plagiarism. Definitely a long shot.
| |
| | |
| I'll show one example: the [https://supersmashbros.fandom.com/wiki/Primid?action=history Primid] article on Smashpedia, and most recently the [https://mario.fandom.com/wiki/Link?action=history Link] article on SMW.
| |
| | |
| So what happens to the older Fandom pages if it can't be comfortably fit? I have an [https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Nintendo:Article_archives article archives] system in place for earlier iterations of the content. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 12:54, 25 August 2025 (EDT)
| |
| :I don’t really like FANDOM, cause fandom has too much ads and stuff. Will you make a [[Super Mario World]] article on this wiki without copying from any websites this time? [[User:Jared2222|Jared2222]] ([[User talk:Jared2222|talk]]) 12:59, 25 August 2025 (EDT)

| ::I know, I'm just mentioning the relocation of the page histories since I thought it'd benefit you to know. Yes, I can try that. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 13:15, 25 August 2025 (EDT)
| |
| :::Will you make a page named [[Mario]] on this wiki with some from Spanish wiki and some in your own words? I am currently working on PikloDex. [[User:Jared2222|Jared2222]] ([[User talk:Jared2222|talk]]) 13:21, 25 August 2025 (EDT)

| | |
| Are these new users your classmates? I remember you told me you began school yesterday. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 16:12, 28 August 2025 (EDT)
| |
| :Yes. [[User:Jared2222|Jared2222]] ([[User talk:Jared2222|talk]]) 17:10, 28 August 2025 (EDT)

| | |
| == PawPatroler ==
| |
| | |
| Do you perhaps know someone named "PawPatroler"? The user did some [https://fanonpedia.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges spam] edits like that one user did on Yoshipedia (I forget the name). [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 18:51, 17 September 2025 (EDT)
| |
| :I think the user on Yoshipedia was Gffggff, like on the animal crossing wiki. I’m not PawPatroler. There is also a PawPatroler on Nookipedia, too. I will also block PawPatroler. May I have an account on wariopedia? I’ve heard that wariopedia is too similar to gamerpedia. [[User:Now, Faster|Now, Faster]] ([[User talk:Now, Faster|talk]]) 19:08, 17 September 2025 (EDT)
| |
| ::"Abusing email user functions to try to coerce admins to commit to an unrelated off-wiki activity, on top of numerous infractions they've done on various NIWA wikis for which they have been banned for." Appears this was the block reason. What is this "unrelated off-wiki activity"? Wariopedia isn't going anywhere, but sure. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 19:14, 17 September 2025 (EDT)
| |
| :::Why does wariopedia use the same license as gamerpedia? [[User:Now, Faster|Now, Faster]] ([[User talk:Now, Faster|talk]]) 19:16, 17 September 2025 (EDT)
| |
| ::::Simple, for variety and so people can reuse without having to give credit. There's a very fine line between license-free and public domain. I imagined some true "public domain" equivalent, which could even be on Gamerpedia and marked as such (we'll see). Wariopedia is less broad, and fills in the missing ''Wario'' slot.

| Looks like you're in the clear. On [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:PawPatroler this talk page], the user gives away IP's revealing them to be in Illinois, not NC. Prob some kid. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 19:35, 17 September 2025 (EDT)

| ::I think PawPatroler may be under 13? Those Wikipedia talk is long there. [[User:Now, Faster|Now, Faster]] ([[User talk:Now, Faster|talk]]) 19:51, 17 September 2025 (EDT)
