  Hello, I'm Ferret. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Characters in the Mario franchise, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

I don’t understand. I sourced everything I put in. What was wrong? Whenever I have asked, I have never gotten a response. Hackecas001 (talk) 00:08, 2 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

ThomasO1989 gave you the run down: First, this is not an indiscriminate list of characters. Not every character in the series needs to be mentioned. Although we ask that characters appear in multiple titles to be considered for inclusion here, more appearances doesn't inherently make them notable. Second, you have provided no reliable sources for any of this and it all seems to be original research. Last, none of this is written well, to be blunt. We strive for a level of quality for an encyclopedia and this just doesn't meet that. -- ThomasO1989 You've been linked to WP:RS as well in several places. We're looking for reliable secondary coverage to help show why the character holds any importance versus simply being a trivial background appearance. However you continued to add more and more with no sign you would stop. -- ferret (talk) 00:16, 2 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Fine. Sorry. I tried. I thought editing Wikipedia sounded like a fun thing. I should’ve thought that I would be bad at it. I’ll never edit anything again. This is my final message. Hackecas001 (talk) 00:21, 2 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

It just takes some time to learn how Wikipedia works. If you can cool it with being overdramatic and take some time to learn things, you may be able to learn how to do things the right way. If not...the rules and standards are a lot lower at fan wikias. Sergecross73 msg me 01:33, 2 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on List of Paper Mario series characters requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 October 12#List of Paper Mario series characters. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
