I recently replaced the Appearances section with more fitting information. A problem before was that the section talked more about the actual games and how their reception was then what Mario actually did in the games. I have fixed this and expanded the section. This article is a B at the moment, and can easily be a GA with some fixes. --Blake (talk) 15:51, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

- For openers, take off the picture of Solid Snake and Mario. It makes it look like its forcusing on Snake. GamerPro64 (talk) 03:22, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yah, I needed a picture of Mario in Brawl for that "other games" section and couldnt find one except for this. But I think someone will have to get standalone art of Mario to replace all those pictures anyways. --Blake (talk) 12:38, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think the article needs that image; it wouldn't pass NFCC. Neither would the one with Baby Mario and Yoshi. Just letting you know. Tezkag72 (talk) 19:37, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- It just looks weird having all that text and no image. There is a giant part of the article that is bare.--Blake (talk) 20:10, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

- Comment: More sources are needed, especially in the Appearances and Characteristics sections. Tezkag72 (talk) 18:23, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
Also, you need to add info to New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Super Mario Galaxy 2. Even though they aren't out yet, they should be referenced.GamerPro64 (talk) 22:44, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
O.k. nevermind what I said. I think the Baby Mario section needs either expanded with a small picture of Baby Mario. GamerPro64 (talk) 00:50, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
- That would be talking about the games themselves. Which is what I wanted to get away from when I re-wrote it to be more of Mario's role. Having "Mario is going to be in New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Super Mario Galazy 2" wouldnt really tell the reader anything about Mario. Its a Mario game! Of course he is going to be in it! Do we really need to state the obvious? --Blake (talk) 00:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
