[OPEN BETA] SMCM: A New Preservation Project (Official Launch) - SUPERBLOCK - 06-25-2026
DISCLAIMER: SMCM (Super Mario's Communities Museum) is neither affiliated with MFGG nor a project focused solely on MFGG; this space is dedicated to any Mario developer, user, developer group, or small community wishing to host their own free project under SMCM criteria. SMCM is not responsible for external disputes—such as arguments over namespaces—unless those conflicts take place within SMCM itself. The site is currently under development, and interest from users on other platforms is expected to grow as word of the site spreads. Created solely by SUPERBLOCK (known as SUPERBLOCKMFGG on SMCM).
SMCM is a completely free, ad-free platform where creating pages requires no extensive knowledge of wikitext. The site features numerous sections for storing various types of information and serves as a shared space for solo developers and small Mario development teams that adhere to SMCM's rules.
It also employs a "Passport" system that works as follows: imagine "Community 1" creates its own namespace (a dedicated section for communities or workgroups designed to guard against unwanted edits). First, users must register on the wiki with a global account before they can create a passport. Once registered, each user in that community must create a page following a specific structure—such as Community1:Username:User (or :Admin for the community leader)—and include a unique 4-digit code at the end (e.g., 1901). If an outsider from "Community 2" attempts to forge a "Community 1" passport without knowing that specific code, they will be completely unable to edit "Community 1" pages. There is also an "SMCM:" passport acting as public insurance, which protects general SMCM pages from unauthorized content changes.
You can view all pages freely without registering. However, to allow your community members to edit your specific pages, you must register with a passport. The process differs for solo developers or small teams seeking a space for their work: they must register using the "Solo_Devs:" passport to access the "ONLY ONE" section. There, they can maintain their own pages, but if another user attempts to edit them, the wiki automatically checks whether the username matches the page owner's; if it does not match, editing is blocked instantly.
There is also a dedicated section for viewing top site news, inspired by our mascot, Talki (a talking flower). Under her theme, special channels are available for posting important announcements or clarifications—similar to a forum layout, but strictly limited to community portal updates, such as page modifications and progress logs. These channels do not serve as a general discussion forum; you must use your own external communication platform (Discord, Reddit, WhatsApp, etc.) to host your community and avoid overloading the wiki.
Additionally, we have a general help page providing key guidelines for creating pages and learning the wiki's mechanics—covering essential topics like trivia layout, page creation standards, and technical info required to work smoothly in this space.
To help you get started, we have set up a few sample pages, a template portal, and a showcase section so you can see exactly how your workspace could look (though, naturally, these are just basic structural examples and lack extensive detail).
We ask for your patience, as this is a project that is currently—and will indefinitely remain—under active development. Please document any issues or inconsistencies in the wiki's "Report a Glitch" section, or contact me directly via my official administrator email: smcmglobaladmin@gmail.com.
