[[User:Bowzerdude|Bowzerdude]]: User has only made 1 edit to the mainspace and stopped editing the mainspace after that.

== Deletion ==

Could an administrator please delete the two Mario pictures I just uploaded? I was attempting to update Mario's artwork. The picture looks fine on Mariowiki but for some reason the picture is all blurry here. I'm sorry if I'm being a bother. <span style="font-family:AR JULIAN; font-size:12pt">[[User:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Chuck</span>]][[User talk:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Norris</span>]]</span>[[File:24.png|23px]]  09:24, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

:Instead of posting here, just add a deletion template to the images. In addition no deletion is necessary here, since any blurriness you were seeing was just a result of multiple things catching up to each other; uploading new versions of images can be slow to update correctly.

== [[User:BrawlerDude]] ==

[[Special:Contributions/BrawlerDude|This]] needs to be taken care of. Also, the pages need to be moved back to retain their edit history.

== Problems ==

I have a problem with bullies on this wiki. The users that are bullys are, OmegaTyrant, Dots the StarCraft (his current name), Bandit, ToastUltramum, SuPaRoah, and Troomi Glittershine. They kept on yelling at me for “commenting on an old or resolved talk pages” or “forgetting to sign my comments”. Can you make them stop?[[User:Sandvich9|Sandvich9]] ([[User talk:Sandvich9|talk]]) 10:31, 23 December 2012 (EST)

:Congratulations for "reporting bullies" to the admin noticeboard. In case you haven't taken the time [[SW:ADMIN|to read actual policy]] (which seems likely, considering that you seem to blatantly ignore [[SW:SIGN]] and [[SW:TALK]]), you'd know that you most people you reported are either rollbackers or admins, so you just complained about this to the exact same people you are reporting. And just so you know, enforcing policy is '''''not''''' in any way "bullying." In addition, your spelling and grammar is simply atrocious. <span style="font-family:AR DESTINE">[[User:Air Conditioner|<span style="color:red">Air</span>]] [[User talk:Air Conditioner|<span style="color:green">Conditioner</span>]]</span> [[File:AC.png|19px]] is on an insane rampage 10:41, 23 December 2012 (EST)

== About [[Ledge canceling|this]] ==

The article needs to be moved to "Ledge-canceling" but I am not able to move it. Could an admin help? Thank you. <span style="font-family:Psychadelic">[[User:F.T.B.|<span style="color:black">F.T.B.</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:F.T.B.|<span style="color:black">(TALK)</span>]]</small> [[File:Zoso.svg|19px|link=Special:Contributions/F.T.B.]] 17:51, 1 March 2013 (EST)

:You don't have to be an admin to move pages, you just need to become autoconfirmed by having your account active for more than four days, and achieving 10 edits. You should be posting this on [[Talk:Ledge canceling|the article's talk page]], by the way.

== Protection of future high-risk template ==

I made {{template|SSB4}}, analogous to {{template|SSB}}, etc. If it's not too early to have it, it should be protected. - <font face="lucida handwriting,segoe script">Ceci n’est pas un [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]].</font> 15:56, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

== Move page. ==

[[Hammer Bro]] needs to be moved to over the redirect: [[Hammer Bro.]] because... well, because [[Mr Game & Watch]] and [[Super Smash Bros]] are redirects, right? So somebody should make the appropriate move for consistency.

== [[User:TheLegendaryKRB]] ==

Hi, I seem to be having some issues with this user, in particular with the {{Sm|Taj}} page. It's already bordered into an edit war, which is why I decided to post here now. [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 17:57, 19 February 2014 (EST)

His latest crop of images are clearly 4X3 images with hacked screen extensions and not in-game widescreen. The latter places character icons close to the edge of the screen, and his images keeps all of them in the 4X3 rectangle in the center. This user has been warned time and time again about this and has been told that should he act up again, he'd be permanently blocked.

== [[Smasher:CrappyCaptureDevice]], is it safe to unprotect now? ==

Its been quite over a year since this has been protected, and the Curious vandal hasn't touched this page in over a year either. Can we remove the semi-protection now?

== Vandals April 1 2014 ==

There are a ton of users here who keep trolling, making disruptive posts, creating fake policies without proper approval, and adding false rumors about new characters for Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U. There are users impersonating other users and real people and they could be offended! Some guy tried to make an improper "request for modship." Someone even changed the colors of the site to red and yellow and no one knows how to fix it! Can you please block all these people? Thank you!

== Forum talk ==

The forum pages don't link to their respective forum talk pages (see [[Forum talk:Browser Poll]] for an example). Should this be fixed?

== Request page move... ==

of [[Wi-Fi Connection]] to and over [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. As the article specifically describes the method of connecting to the internet via the Wii, the former is a bit of a misnomer.

== Probation request ==

I know I can't post on the probation request page and I question if I can legally do this but I would like to request {{s|user|Reshiram1105}} to be put on probation. On his edit count, the user has made very little mainspace edits (with less than 10% of his total) and most were also reverted, and over 75% of his edits were on his userpage and user talk. If this was because he was doing multiple edits on a single page at one time then I'm sorry.

== Mobile site issues ==

I don't know if this is the right place to mention this, but today I tried accessing the site from my phone, and I started getting some nasty pop-ups every time I moved pages. Never happened before.

:It's probably best to report all ads-related problems directly to [[User talk:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]], he's the only one who can do anything about it. You'll probably need to specify exactly what the offending ads are. Also, make sure it's not a problem on your end first (virus etc).

== User:SSBobbyM ==

Only mainspace contributions this user made were deleted, and their only other contributions were to their userpage and talk page, and wikistatus was yellow or red during those times. Part of their comment from their talk page had to be removed as it was a threat to delete comments '''from an administrator''' as spam. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 23:12, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

:I'm keeping an eye on the situation. This user is out of second chances.

== Deleting a revision ==

An anonymous user posted their email address in the talk page for {{s|Talk|Tier list}}. I just removed the email address, and I request that the revisions (mine and theirs) be deleted, for the safety of that user. Thank you. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 13:13, 14 June 2014 (EDT)

:Actually, was removing the email a good idea? I'm now questioning that, since the user voluntarily gave it. However it was in a mainspace's talk page, so I had to. I could restore if needed. Furthermore, said user seems to be making a fuss about another user's choice of avatar as well. Those comments were removed as they were worded in an unacceptable manner, and are inappropriately placed. Can a staff member lead him to the right direction?
