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 Primid article on Smashpedia, and most recently the Link article on SMW.
So what happens to the older Fandom pages if it can't be comfortably fit? I have an article archives system in place for earlier iterations of the content. Gstar (talk) 12:54, 25 August 2025 (EDT)
