What's the difference?

What's the difference between vandalism and spam? Thepokemonmaster (talk) 06:10, July 2, 2014 (EDT)

As defined on this policy page, vandalism is deliberately adding content that shouldn't be on a page to it (nonsense/gibberish is a common way of referring to that); adding offensive material or removing content from pages would also be considered vandalism. Spam is a form of vandalism, which, according to this page, is adding links to other sites, solely to advertise them or lead people to them. In practice, "spam" might be used to refer to more types of vandalism than just linking, though, like some of the "adding gibberish." -Sky (talk) 12:21, July 2, 2014 (EDT)


Why should furniture names be capitalzed when they aren't capitalzed in game??

Why should the names of furniture be capitalized in game when they aren't capitalized in-game? On most wikis about games they usually use the in-game capitalization. I don't get it!

It's kind of murky in this field, actually. In-game uses both lowercase, but official game guides have used both capitalization, so it isn't as clear cut as it seems. All arguments for each capitalization rules have its merits, but I'm going with policy for now rather than change everything. There are some arguments about this standard, even though it has been established already. Something isn't right about this system we have here. :/ Mario Signature.png 19:58, August 24, 2014 (EDT)

You can keep this up all you want as far as I'm concerned - but there is no possibility that the policy is going to change again in the near future, so if you continue to make these edits that break guidelines, we will continue to revert them. Red Snapper 11:34, August 27, 2014 (EDT)

I'm fine with furniture capitalizing but I do not agree with capitalizing stuff like toy hammer and fish/bug names(except proper nouns in them)

New comment: I have an observation in the game: items like "Pipe" are capitalized while something like Stripe Bed show up in lowercase. Should we go back to lowercasing for most names then? Mario Signature.png 16:14, May 19, 2015 (EDT)

Maybe.(I'm gonna do) --50.136.149.237 11:54, May 23, 2015 (EDT)

The only way to truly settle this new issue is to put up another poll. Red (talk) Red Snapper WW Sprite.png 11:59, May 23, 2015 (EDT)

How do you do that?
