The Super Mario Wiki is a collaborative knowledge-base about everything in the Mario universe. It is driven by a fan-based community, and runs on a wiki, meaning any registered user can edit and create articles.

The articles are varying from things of games to items and characters. Anyone can sign-up and help edit articles but there is a one week waiting period before users are allowed to edit quite a few articles. This is to help prevent users from being vandals and writing down fanboy/fangirl related junk that doesn't fit.

Sysops as they do here may also assign and make users into Sysops as they see fit. Usually people are newly ranked as Sysops are longtime members and usually a patroller or bureaucrat ranked user and help keep the site cleaned up on a daily basis. They may block users, autoconfirm users, and delete articles as they see fit.

They have a monthly part of the site they update every month for fun called The Shroom which allows users to try catching up on what happened on the site or simply look at the fun section.
