Talk:Super Mario Bros. 2

Everyone freeze...

It's clear Anon was reverting for the sake of reverting (revenge? Lol? Wild claim, but still...), but Dr. Pain has a point. I'm inclined to believe him since that's what I know as well. As for the image, it does not belong, as it is not relevant. We're not the Super Mario Wiki. BNK ^[E|T|C] 02:39, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

OK first of all what's wrong with the official art? Second of all, about the Luigi jumping thing, this. Thirdly, according to the one revert rule, technically BNK violated it first, although I admit I too went out of line. Anon 02:40, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Discussions about policy violations don't belong here. They belong on user talk pages. And how is box art irrelevant? If you want an in-game pic, upload one yourself and quit whining. Doctor Pain 99 (CTE) 02:42, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

And, uh, I cant find it on that page Anon. Doctor Pain 99 (CTE) 02:44, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Keep looking. Also, about the art thing, it's especially useful in this case as there are two games with this title. Sir Anon the great 02:46, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

In the "differences" section, it says "Luigi can jump 1 block higher than Mario". And about the edit war thing, sorry about that. Sir Anon the great 02:47, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Dr. Pain, please read the release date in the infobox. It really isn't hard. Really!

Secondly, no one is "whining". Come on.

Third, I do rest my case on the origin of Luigi's higher origin.

Last, we do not need box art here. Try Gamehiker if you like looking at the image, and I can't magically obtain software needed to take and upload a picture of the SMB2 masterpiece. BNK ^[E|T|C] 02:49, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

I meant "the origin of Luigi's higher jump". BNK ^[E|T|C] 02:49, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

About the boxart, you are right, it's not absolutely necessary, but it's helpful to viewers who wish to look at the page, as well as for the reason I stated above. Sir Anon the great 02:51, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Just leave it the way it is guys. Doctor Pain 99 (CTE) 02:53, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

BNK, boxart is better than no image. If you want some sort of screenshot fine, but we should leave the boxart up until one is available. Doctor Pain 99 (CTE) 03:02, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I have a pic from the Dojo of SMB2's masterpiece, but no offense BNK but how is a box art of the video game irrelevant? I mean all the other video games get a box art on this site so why not SMB2? Unknown the Hedgehog 03:04, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

You do? Upload it! BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:06, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

I still don't fully understand how the box art is considered irrelevant when the definition of relevant fits it perfectly,"bearing upon or connected with the matter in hand". The matter that is in hand is Super Mario Bros. 2. Wouldn't that mean as long as I post the box art and not something completely different like a movie poster or a different video game wouldn't that mean it's relevant? I agree it may not be necessary, but it is consistent (considering all the other articles of games get a box art). Unknown the Hedgehog 03:25, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

That's the point; it isn't necessary. It (the boxart) was never in a Super Smash Bros. game and the image was likely copied from the Mario Wiki anyway. How would a movie poster be relative? You're losing... still, it's the same with articles on trophy characters (before the purge) when people started uploading official artwork for said characters when all that was needed was a picture of the trophy. In this case, a screenshot suffices. BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:31, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

I meant "you're losing me". BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:31, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

A screenshot of gameplay isn't necessary either, yet it is there. While official artwork hasn't appeared in SSB, the game has, and as the box cover reperesents the game, it belongs on the article. Mr. Anon teh awsome 03:40, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

You failed (yet again) to read my post, and you STILL implement the same unreasonable logic. The screenshot is actually from the game, whereas the box art is not. Come on, Mr. Anon, are you being serious? I don't need to respond to you at all, but I am. Stop being ridiculous. :$ BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:45, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

This still leaves the unanswered question of why this article isn't allowed to have a box art while the other games are... Unknown the Hedgehog 03:57, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Those games have been purged, recently, but there are still left-over ones that need the box art removed. Someone (I, maybe?) will/should eventually get to it. BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:59, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
