I've been reviewing your edits for this game. Great work so far! I particularly like the images you've gathered. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 16:57, 8 May 2012 (UTC) | I've been reviewing your edits for this game. Great work so far!

:Thank you! I finished the game a while back, so it's mostly a matter of replaying the game and writing about it now. This is my first time writing a guide though, so it's taking a bit of time. Still, I'm thinking that it will be a solid guide in a month or two. Any tricks of the trade you'd like to share?--[[User:Salnax|Salnax]] ([[User talk:Salnax|talk]]) 19:35, 8 May 2012 (UTC) | |||
::Just make sure you go through and copyedit your work for grammar/spelling errors, having a neutral point of view, and being efficient. People like to get wordy in guides. I'm a stickler for technical specifics (e.g. how many enemies, how many shots need to be fired, timing, etc.), but I won't be able to criticize you or chime in since I don't have the game. When you feel like it is all done, make sure to let us know so we can nominate it to be featured. Then the community will go through a review process to look through the details of the guide and promote it to featured if all of the issues have been taken care of. I haven't taken a look at the content to see if I can add anything, but I would if it was nominated. Good luck out there. I've been doing this for years and it takes a lot of effort, but it's very satisfying! Oh, I recommend checking out other sites' guides to acquire info you may have forgotten. Maybe you'll come up with some new, original content by concluding on the information you gather. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 17:43, 10 May 2012 (UTC) | |||

Hi Salnax. Thanks for the help with SMAS, but it actually doesn't get a Wii category. We will put categories on redirects when the title of the game is different on one system than for another. The main article is [[Super Mario All-Stars]], which only officially came out on the SNES. The alternate title, [[Super Mario All-Stars 25th Anniversary Edition]] redirects to Super Mario All-Stars, but if you look at the redirect page, you can see that we categorized it for the Wii. It's extremely nitpicky, I know, but it's to make sure that the right titles only show up in the proper categories. Keep up the great work.
