4. Items like [[Roast Whacka Bump]] lack the in-game description. Also many ''Super Paper Mario'' characters lack Tippi's tattles.
 
More importantly, some infoboxes fail to mention from which game the in-game description comes:

Ultra Stone

</pre>


[https://www.bilibili.com/video/av75169038 Speedrun of iQue's localization of ''Paper Mario''], may be useful to add Simplified Chinese entries in the "Names in other languages" sections.
5. For pages like [[List of implied characters]], see what pages redirect to them. The target of redirects are typically "List of implied characters#XXX". Check whether this works (i.e. whether XXX actually appears as a section title).


[https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1kA411b7Bf iQue's localization of ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'']. Note that this is not the popular-but-unauthorized fan translation.
6. On [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario]], consolidate the quotations of the shop runners (and maybe of a few other characters whose quotes are not completely listed).


'''April 6, 2018''': Currently I'm adding the Simplified Chinese names of [[List of WarioWare: Touched! microgames|''WarioWare: Touched!'' microgames]] to the wiki. These names come from [[iQue]]'s localization of ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]''. ['''April 15, 2018''': hard disk fell to the ground while running at high speed, causing damage to all data. As such I no longer have iQue's version of the game.]
7. Download all the navtemplates and write a script to check article->nav and nav->article


==''Mario'' games I played==
8. Update [[List of characters]] (and co) to include the latest created ''Paper Mario'' and ''SPM'' characters.
*Traditional platformers from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' to ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''
*''[[Super Mario 64]]''
*''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' (partially)

Minor NPC project

The page List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario is largely finished.

  • The quotes come from the Paper Mario Text Dump by Rew. Some of them have been confirmed by actually playing the game, but the others (such as the Toad Town ones) have not.
  • The compilation of this article led to the discovery of a few new named NPCs (the Rangers and the Great Gossip Trio) as well as new facts about existing named NPCs.
  • I'm not satisfied with the layout of the page as it currently stands, but I don't know how to improve it with my crude HTML/CSS skills.
