== One thing that could be considered... ==
Closer to the time, once more and more edits about SSB4 come around, [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Patroller|Extension:Patroller]] could be installed. This adds the red exclamation marks next to unpatrolled edits in recent changes. Then admins, and possibly rollback (if you give them the patroller user right) could then check the edits and make sure they are not stupid. It wouldn't limit the amount of stupid edits but it would make it easier to identify the stupid edits. Also, an autopatrolled right could be given to trusted users. Just a suggestion anyway, one that Wikisimpsons uses anyway (and it works pretty well there). <span style="font-family:AR Darling">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:black">The</span> <span style="color:blue">Solar</span> <span style="color:red">Dragon</span>]] <sup>([[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:bgreen">Talk</span>]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])</sup></span> 08:05, 2 August 2012 (EDT)

:I didn't realize we didn't already have this, I '''support''' installing it, and at the same time, I would like to become a patroller.

::I meant would does 0 represent how it normally is.

:-15 would mean that there is still stuff to do, but in general, the wiki is in good shape. We start to consider going to green around -30 or so <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">'''King'''</span></span>]] 22:27, 14 April 2016 (EDT)
== Green ==
Will this wiki ever turn back to green? [[User:KirbysCrazyAppetite|Kirby's Crazy Appetite]] ~ [[File:KirbyHeadYellowSSB.png|50x20px]] 15:49, 2 May 2016 (EDT)
:As soon as the things to do tab goes below 1000, it's likely it'll revert to green at that point.

== Errors in there ==
It says for the yellow status: Userspace and forum edits are loosely restricted: warnings given for spending too much time in userspace/forums are given sooner, with locks and/or blocks following equally soon. But there's no such thing as a lock on the wiki, unless it means a page protection. [[File:AlbumArt-Dixie.png|20px]]  [[User:TabuuandMasterCore|TabuuandMasterCore]] 07:40, 30 May 2016 (EDT)

== Why is it green? ==
The things to do list isn't below 1,000 so why is it green? [[File:AlbumArt-Dixie.png|20px]]  [[User:TabuuandMasterCore|TabuuandMasterCore]] 22:41, 13 June 2016 (EDT)
:A vote was put into place recently and the consensus was almost unanimous to bring it to green.

== What is the point of this system? ==
I don't get why this system is a thing, why is it around in the first place? [[File:George Jones.jpg|25px]] [[User:George Jones|George Jones]] [[File:Walls Can Fall.jpg|25px]] 20:20, 4 August 2018 (EDT)
:it's for a user to get a feel for how busy we are at any time, especially so they can know how much to edit their userspace without being in trouble. <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]]&nbsp;[[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 22:13, 4 August 2018 (EDT)
