I've got a question,

Why is this on the most viewed pages? --Malake256 ^{{Talk | Contribs}} 02:18, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Because It's been viewed 8,228 times :P _ZeldaMan ^{(PostboxStatus)} 02:21, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Just wondering,

Is there some way to browse images that have already been uploaded? Like, for example, if I wanted a picture of a Hunter Metroid, is there a way to tell if someone has already uploaded such a picture without knowing the specific file name? If this is somehow obvious and I am missing something, just let me know, but the Help only tells how to upload new images, not browse ones already there. If there are images that can be used, I'd rather use them than uploading brand new ones. --Nintendbob 15:37, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Go to the category to which a Hunter Metroid would fall under. Usually, such an image would already be added to the page, but occasionally people upload images before the page is created and an unused image just sits there. Head on over to Special:SpecialPages to find an array of lists that may be useful. More specifically, go here to look at uncategorized files which you wouldn't find under any category. There to go to files that are unused, that is, they don't appear on any page. And there to view all categories. The enemies category or Metroids category would be where an image of a Hunter Metroid would be if it existed. Hope some of that helped! --Malake256 ^{{Talk | Contribs}} 17:29, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to tell me all this, it really helps --Nintendbob 18:29, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Justin BAILEY

So, Justin Bailey or JUSTIN BAILEY. Same with Bottle Ship. Both are referred to in game as ALL CAPS. But otherwise, they're simply known as lowercase. --Malake256 ^{{Talk | Contribs}} 06:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Hello there!

I'm Fawful117, a newcomer to this wiki, but very good on the Mario wiki! I need to edit my userpage a bit... anyway, what's there to do on this wiki? I assume it's just like the Mario wiki, right?

Fawful117 Look who's come from the Mario Wiki! ME!!! ;) I HAVE CHORTLES! 21:46, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
