The website was created on August | The website was created on August 12, 2005 by Stephen Shinn (who goes by Porplemontage, the namesake of his original site, Porplemontage Studios), who received help from his colleague AgentSeethroo. It was originally intended to be a part of an alliance of ''Mario''-related wikis called the "Wiki Alliance," and content from the wiki was moved to the DKWiki (which covered ''Donkey Kong'') and Wario Wiki, both hosted by Porplemontage. This project was cancelled in 2007, though, and all content returned to the Super Mario Wiki. | ||
The wiki covers various topics surrounding the Mario series: some of which include the games, characters, locations, TV series, movies, and comics. Anyone can sign-up and help edit articles, and users gain more abilities one week after signing up, such as the ability to create their userpage and having the ability to move pages. This is to help prevent new users from making excessive mistakes and have a chance to learn about the policies of the site before they make mistakes. | The wiki covers various topics surrounding the Mario series: some of which include the games, characters, locations, TV series, movies, and comics.
