Hi Vmario - hope you're doing well! Do you have any interest in being a part of the Nookipedia staff? You've done some great editing while you've been here and stayed active. I'd be happy to nominate you! Cheers, Drago   (talk)      11:29, November 25, 2017 (EST)


 * I'll happy to, but I can't for my personal reasons, and work as staff will be hard, so I can't become part of this. Vmario97 (talk) 05:26, November 26, 2017 (EST)


 * No worries - thanks for responding! :) Drago   (talk)     DragoPicACNL.png 10:21, November 26, 2017 (EST)

NL Art
Hey, I was just wondering where you found all those artworks of the villagers from the Welcome Amiibo update / Amiibo Festival. I had only found a few before myself, so I was curious where you got the entire bunch of new art from? —  Qyzxf    (talk)  10:40, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * Found it on official AC website. It's including all villagers except for Stu, Jacob, Sanrio and amiibo figure ones. You need to know the villager code first. v mario 97  (talk) 10:47, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * Ah I see. However this site appears to also include much redone art for the villagers who already had higher res art (compare this with this) so do you think they should all be uploaded as well? —  Qyzxf    (talk)  11:01, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * Not sure about it... The original art it's more eligible for artwork that the from the website. All non-new villagers (exception is some of them) are taken from PidgiWiki. Most of the debuted in  villagers had low-quality art and me and SuperHamster replaced to the art from the website. Lotter also upload all bear art to website version (except for Curt).  v mario 97  (talk) 11:17, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * I think personally, it would make sense to upload the new ones seperately, and put them in the gallery for Welcome Amiibo, and put the original New Leaf art in the original gallery. However it would require a lot of work to upload them all.. Since it's already been done for the bears, I think it would be fair to just do it for the rest too? —  Qyzxf    (talk)  11:22, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * I'm also leaning towards doing separate uploads for NL and WA villager art; they're both official artworks from different points at time, even if the same pose. ~ Super  Hamster  Talk 16:24, September 22, 2018 (EDT)
 * Right, and it would also involve having to revert all of the other ones... or just reupload their old variants instead? And what about the low-quality ones, they were still technically different art as well —  Qyzxf    (talk)  16:50, September 22, 2018 (EDT)

Revert
Hi, hope you're doing well! Just wondering why you reverted this edit? Drago  (talk)      12:25, October 21, 2018 (EDT)
 * Did this by mistake. My bad. Apologies! P.s. I just want to patrol edit, but clicked the wrong button. v mario 97  (talk) 12:36, October 21, 2018 (EDT)
 * No worries, it is very easy to hit rollback by accident! Drago   (talk)     Drago PC Villager Icon.png 12:38, October 21, 2018 (EDT)

Sysop?
Hi Vmario - I'm just wondering if you have any interest in the Administrator position here? You're definitely ready for more tools in my opinion! I'd be happy to nominate you if you're interested. Drago  (talk)      13:20, May 6, 2019 (EDT)
 * I'm glad to be a wiki sysop. However, I had a hiatus from the wiki for some months due to lost interest of the series and stopping playing Pocket Camp. But I'm back to play this game and ready to make additions to the Pocket Camp related pages. So, count me anyway. v mario 97  (talk) 03:28, May 7, 2019 (EDT)
 * Sure, I'll go nominate you! Drago   (talk)     Drago PC Villager Icon.png 11:35, May 8, 2019 (EDT)

Congratulations!
Just want to give you my congratulations on becoming our latest administrator (your application was successful, by the way)! I'm sure you'll do a fantastic job and this is well deserved. You probably know already, but the most noticeable new abilities you now have are being able to edit fully-protected pages, and blocking users (the infamous ban-hammer :P). You can see all of your new abilities at Nookipedia:Administrators. Please feel free to ask any questions if you need to, and thanks for all of your hard work so far! :) Drago   (talk)      13:17, May 15, 2019 (EDT)

Pocket Camp Questions
First off, thanks for your contributions to the site regarding Pocket Camp! We really appreciate and value your work/contributions! I just wanted to ask you where you were sourcing your information for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp/Update History as well as the images for the items that are being added to the item pages as listed at User:Vmario97/Project_Pocket_Camp. I ask because I'd like to help out (or maybe other users can help during the cross-wiki weekend!). Thanks!  ( talk )  19:35, September 12, 2019 (EDT)
 * Good questions. First I'm not updated for a long time because I abandoned playing this game for a long time. Second, I took the information from AC Pocket Camp Reddit and its Discord account (when files and data are stored). That's about it. v mario 97  (talk) 01:55, September 13, 2019 (EDT)

new Horizons villagers
Hey! I noticed you updated the list of villagers appearing in new horizons. I had decided to add all the characters saw to promote the game but thinking back at it, it's wiser to only add villagers on wich we already saw their new design. Sorry for my messy update and thank you for your clear modification.

Just checking with you but I didn't saw Merry appearing In NH yet ? Also the NintendoDream Magazine revealing villager renders came in January 21 (That's why I wrote 21). I noticed I could make a short description when I update so I'll explain more from now on LegendaryCarrot (talk) 10:15, January 26, 2020 (EST)

Switching to Animal Crossing: New Horizons renders
Hi VMario97! I've uploaded a few render (all the rabbits, penguins, and a few others) after making transparent PNG with the Nintendo renders we've uncovered in the last few hours. I then added these to the characters gallery. I did not switch their official picture to these new renders, though. I figured the administration of Nookipedia wanted to control that. Should I go ahead and swap the NL picture for the NH for their main ? Thank you. --Ocre (talk) 01:08, February 2, 2020 (EST)
 * Hm... not sure. I guess the art needs refreshment anyway since the game is close to release. However those artworks are just idle poses. v mario 97  (talk) 03:51, February 2, 2020 (EST)

fake emoji
Thanks for the corrections on my English in Cameo but why have the "hashflag" words been deleted and replaced with "custom emoji"? They are not emoji, they do not work with Unicode characters and have nothing to do with the Unicode Consortium which manages emoji https://blog.emojipedia.org/kimoji-justmoji-what-is-an-emoji/ I post this message to avoid a edit warring if i understood the nookipedia rules. ThomasUnD (talk) 12:57, March 17, 2020 (EDT)
 * Hmm... The Twitter saying this is emoji. https://marketing.twitter.com/emea/en_gb/insights/best-practices-for-supercharging-campaigns-with-branded-emojis Maybe I should change the title from emoji to emote. v mario 97  (talk) 13:48, March 17, 2020 (EDT)

Photo Adding
How do you add photos here? I want to add a photo of my AC:NL/NH oc but I don't know how. Thanks in Advance! SplatNerdBekahboo (talk) 09:58, March 20, 2020 (EDT)
 * Special:Upload. Also you're not confirmed and I don't have perms to add to this group, so ask someone else like Drago or Sunmarsh. Sorry. v mario 97  (talk) 10:00, March 20, 2020 (EDT)

K.K. songs
Hi, I just joined the wiki recently to do some cleanup on the K.K. song pages, and I noticed you've started on the same thing (along with sprucing up the music infobox). Would you want to partner up and make it a project? I spent some time getting the non-English names from New Leaf, but it looks like you've got the New Horizons song titles, and I'd be happy to have that to compare notes. Plus, we could congregate and come to a consistent structure for the pages (like the "names in other languages" sections and genres and such). Is that something you'd be interested in? Let me know. StrawberryChan (talk) 07:40, April 5, 2020 (EDT)

NH Furniture Images
Hey! So some of the images you uploaded for the NH furniture items (specifically the Wall-Mounted TV (50. In) ones) have an error and the thumbnail doesn't load. It says the following "Error creating thumbnail: File missing", which means I can't use the image. And because I literally do not trust myself at uploading another image, and would probably do something wrong, I decided to let you know. Thanks again!--Random Penguins14 (talk) 14:36, June 2, 2020 (EDT)
 * I'm aware but I'm lazy to reupload. Probably mass-renaming did not work properly with files. That's because the files are not directly from nookipedia.com anymore. v mario 97  (talk) 14:57, June 2, 2020 (EDT)

OI, VMARIO!
i started this off pretty simple? ok...soooo....how do i catch a barreleye, like...what tactics should i use? - unsigned comment from Saint aldrich‎ (talk • contribs) 21:30, June 6, 2020 (EDT)
 * Fish Bait is your answer. However they (I mean barreleyes) are pretty rare, so you need to be lucky for this. v mario 97  (talk) 23:20, June 6, 2020 (EDT)

Cow page
Hi, so for whatever reason, I tried changing the "species" name on the "Cow" infobox from "B. primigenius" to "B. cattle", and for whatever reason, all the villager infoboxes started to freak out. I tried reverting it a few times, but nothing seems to be fixing it. What's even stranger is that when I tried to preview the reverts, the villager infoboxes displayed just fine, but the moment the reverts are saved, they go right back to being glitchy again. What could be the problem? TurtleCrossing (talk) 06:32, July 24, 2020 (EDT)
 * Nothing wrong, it's just Cargo glitching. You can click Purge cache if you see this. v mario 97  (talk) 06:57, July 24, 2020 (EDT)

Golden Leaf Award V: Gilded Boogaloo
-- Dorsal Axe  (talk) 16:32, July 25, 2020 (EDT)
 * Appreciate it. Thank you so much! v mario 97  (talk) 16:34, July 25, 2020 (EDT)

Benedict's e-reader card
I don't think you restored it during that test. TurtleCrossing (talk) 11:54, August 1, 2020 (EDT)
 * No, it's Dorsal did this, I restored Bella. v mario 97  (talk) 11:56, August 1, 2020 (EDT)
 * I see. Either way, someone needs to restore it, as it seems to be completely wiped off the Wiki. TurtleCrossing (talk) 12:16, August 1, 2020 (EDT)

Regarding certain NH renders
So it appears that there are a 5 villagers missing from the render update: Cole, Gruff, Rocco, Wart Jr., and Wendy.

Cole's current render on the Wiki appears to be higher quality than his render posted on NoE, while the NoE version of Wendy's render doesn't seem to exist (either that, or its link contains something that we can't figure out), so I can see why they haven't gotten their renders updated yet.

That just leaves Rocco, Wart Jr., and Gruff. I tried updating Rocco's NoE render first, but it appeared to be an exact duplicate of the previous version. I realized I uploaded the uncropped version, so I decided to crop it, but it still appeared to be a duplicate. I was trying to see if it can be zoomed in like how it is when you view the render from the NoE link, but nothing seems to be working.

Is there something I'm doing wrong or does this specific render (and possibly Wart Jr. and Gruff's NoE renders, as well) just have this specific quirk where the zooming aspect can't be replicated on MediaWiki? TurtleCrossing (talk) 01:20, August 3, 2020 (EDT)
 * Never mind, it turns out I just gotta hard refresh the image while in "black background" mode. I apologize for wasting your time. TurtleCrossing (talk) 01:22, August 3, 2020 (EDT)
 * Updated Gruff and Wart Jr. Cole is already big, and Wendy for unknown reasons is missing from NoE file assets. P.s. We have Wendy's NH render here. v mario 97  (talk) 01:26, August 3, 2020 (EDT)

Makeovers
I got a wii mask makeover for free to see what it was like, I took the mask off and tried to go and get a Normal makeover but Harriet keeps suggesting other miis? Help!
 * Sorry, I can't help you with that. Also, try to see Mii or Shampoodle for info. I currently don't play any older series titles, sorry again... v mario 97  (talk) 05:33, August 12, 2020 (EDT)
 * I thought the Mii Mask was the only makeover you could get...? Drago   (talk)     Drago PC Villager Icon.png 12:17, August 12, 2020 (EDT)

Rapid Edits
Quick (but presumably stupid) question; How do you and some of the other staff members manage to make so many edits to image pages in the span of minutes? I've had to reload the recent changes page tons of times in a row just to keep up with it all... 17:15, September 7, 2020 (EDT)

I don't know how to delete articles, I guess
Hi there Vmario! My name is scratch0229, and I need help with deleting the Master Sword page. I'm new here, and I want to help this amazing wiki! (Sorry but I don't know how links work either)
 * Only staff members can delete pages, and just because a page is marked with a deletion request does not mean it should immediately be deleted; it must be discussed first to reach consensus as to whether it should stay or be deleted (see Talk:Master Sword). ~ AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 11:32, December 8, 2020 (EST)

Thank you, Vmario! I was wondering.--Scratch0229 (talk) 12:01, December 8, 2020 (EST)--Scratch0229 (talk) 12:01, December 8, 2020 (EST)Scratch0229

Reminder
Hi, just a reminder that the higher-quality New Horizons renders for the January-born villagers are now available on NoE's site.

I was gonna upload them myself, but the cropping tool on my device is really bad (i.e. moving the camera also moves the cropping area. There's no way to only have the camera move AFAIK), so trying to crop them exactly where the pixels end is going to be a long chore. That's why I came to you, as you have uploaded the previous HQ renders. TurtleCrossing (talk) 05:33, January 20, 2021 (EST)
 * Not Vmario, but I've gone ahead and uploaded them. The only one I was unable to find was Sherb; oddly, he's not even listed on the calendar on the site. ~ AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 10:29, January 20, 2021 (EST)
 * Ah, thank you for that. To be fair, none of the new villagers were ever listed on the calendar on NoE's site. TurtleCrossing (talk) 10:44, January 20, 2021 (EST)
 * Sorry, I'm not really active in this wiki lately. Thanks Alex for uploading them. v mario 97  (talk) 09:03, January 21, 2021 (EST)
