User:StuperStar
Why the flip are you reading this? (for future reference, I say "flip" a lot).
My name comes from a mix of 3 words: "Stupid," "Super," and "Star." I am stupid, and Kirby Super Star is one of my favorite games, so it fits.
So, about me... I'm a human being and I live on Earth. I hang around a bunch of different sites, so you could possibly see me in some other place. However, this is the only place where I use StuperStar as a username, so you'd have to ask the person you think is me... I'll leave it up to you to find me. XP
I'm a big Nintendo fan and geek in general, but I'll mostly edit things around here.
Anyways, a little about me:
~Favorite video game:
- Super Mario World
~Favorite Pikmin:
- Pikmin Series: Purple
- Super Smash Bros Series: White
~Favorite Pikmin level:
- Final Trial
~Favorite Pikmin song:
- Bublax Kingdom
~Favorite enemy:
- WOGPOLESS!!!
Things I've Noticed
Incoherence. Wikis don't look nice and organized if nothing, format-wise, fits togather. Here's a list of things that I'm trying to fix. Help me if you want (not all of this deals with coherence, might I add):
- Italicize games. For example, Pikmin, Pikmin 2, and Pikmin 3. This is a biggy. Also, when you say "the Pikmin series," italicize "Pikmin" (so it becomes "the Pikmin series"). This is observed in every wiki that I have ever been on.
- Bold the first time an article uses the name of the subject. Haven't seen this as too big of a problem, but there area few instances.
- Sometimes articles have more than one official name (for example, PNF-404 and Wollywog). If an article falls in that category, bold the first time its other name(s) is used (like "Wollyhop" for Wollywog, or "Plant of the Pikmin" for PNF-404)
- Calling Pikmin "Pikmin 1" isn't something I like. It's kind of more like a pet peeve. By taking off the "1" and italicizing the game name, that should be enough to tell people it is a game, while keeping it's official title. For example, in the Kirby Wikia, they don't call Kirby's Dream Land *"Kirby's Dream Land 1" even though the series also has Kirby's Dream Land 2 and 3.
- *Notice how "Kirby's Dream Land 1" isn't italicized. I don't think I've ever seen a "Pikmin 1" italicized. Direct relationship, it seems.
- Heading. Make sure you know what ones to use. Here's a list of different things I've seen that has used the wrong heading.
- For Cave's sublevel walk through, each sublevel header should be heading 3. We aren't going to be making sublevel walkthroughs for a while, so this is mostly just for cleanup on all the Pikmin 2 caves until Pikmin 3 comes out.
- Trivia header is Heading 2. I don't find that this happens to much as Trivia only needs to be typed once on any page, but I've seen it, like, 3 times since my joining of this wiki
- For Note headers, use "Heading 3." For example, in Pikmin 2, enemies have "Olimar's Notes" and "Louie's Notes." Those exact words (the header of the passage) should be set to Header 3. However, this is kind of just a "me" thing (since I started going off this format from what I saw on the Main Engine's page), so if you're thinking I'm being overly dictative about this wiki, you don't absolutely have to do this (just know, that if I see a non-Header 3 for different types of notes, I'll change it).
- This is minor, but this wiki has a pattern of putting the gallery before the trivia. Keep it that way. I've seen a few where the trivia is before the gallery
- Categories... Guys, let's be reasonable. Make sure you're adding pages to categories that would make sense. No, Olimar's family is not in Pikmin 3 from what we've seen and plants aren't enemies.
- And also make sure you're not making unnecessary categories. We don't need categories for each individual Pikmin.
- Trivia. Sometimes, people will add trivia entries that don't belong in the trivia. If it is something Pikmin do in game that's clearly seen, it doesn't belong there. For example, saying Yellow Pikmin can control electric currents in Pikmin 3 is not trivia because it is an important gameplay mechanic.
- Spelling and grammar. Yes, there's not much we can do to stop it. Some people are bad at it and don't review their work (I for one), but if you can please check over your edit, that would be great.
- The type of spelling should also be considered. Here, in this wikia, we use American English spelling. So, if you come from the UK, Australia, etc., please make sure you are using American English:

Stalking
Yup, I must confess, if something is posted on a blog or talk page of any sort, chances are I'm reading it. Although I often won't comment on an already-made conversation.
Pikmin Records and Conflictions about them
Everyone here has them.... I would go check because I don't have most of my record memorizes (in fact, I'm not 100% on any of them). And if you're wondering "Why the heck don't you go check?", I have an answer. I only have the Wii version of both games (I've played the GCN ones, and I find the Wii's control scheme more natural to me), and currently, my Wii doesn't seem to want to play games. It can't read a single one. so I can't check/play them AT ALL until it's fixed, or I get a Wii U (which I want so flipping badly, but I'm still a young teen-14 eyars old-so I don't have a regular job yet and my parents sure as heck don't want to pay $300, or even $250...). I've triend fixing my Wii on my own, but if it did anything, it made it worse (made the eject noise all funky).
So, that's my story...
But my estimated records are only the days spent (remember, I seriously don't remember the exact days, so it's a guess)...
Pikmin 2: 13 days
Pikmin 2: Somwhere between 13 and 16 days. I didn't pay attention to days on Pikmin 2 as much (since there wasn't a limit), so my mind is more foggy on that one. It's also more foggy since I never really tried to perfect it. I was more interested in a 0 death run (which I accomplished in Pikmin 2).
Other Wikis I've Edited On
(Doesn't matter how many times I've edited on it or even if I still actively go on. I do have to say, this Wiki is by far my most active one)
