:lol uh... the artwork is nice but I'm not entirely sure if this is suited for this wiki. After all we usually don't see fanart on wikis in general. I do think a mascot would be good for this wiki, but my first choice would be an actual EarthBound series character , my personal picks would be probably Ness or Mr Saturn (I have thought of Starman before, but Starmen.net has kinda already taken that). <span style="font-family: Algerian;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0087ff"> '''''[[User:supatoad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">Omegα</span>]] [[User talk:supatoad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">Toαd </span>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">64</span>]]'''''</span> [[Image:Toad.jpg|20px]] 22:42, 5 April 2020 (UTC) | :lol uh... the artwork is nice but I'm not entirely sure if this is suited for this wiki.

:Don't mean to double post but I felt I should be more specific: My concern with this one is that it looks more like a generic anime character rather than something to represent EarthBound. <small>(As a disclaimer I have nothing against anime and people who like it and I find weebs to be at least somewhat tolerable <s>unlike furries</s>)</small> While this character does wear Paula's dress she doesn't fit well in an encyclopedia dedicated to EarthBound, if this was an EarthBound fansite yes she would work, but this is a public encyclopedia so it's something different. | |||
:The reason I suggested Ness and Saturn is since they are both among the most iconic and recognized characters in the EarthBound series, after all the italian WikiBound has Ness on the logo. As a result they would fot well for the community driven EarthBound/Mother encyclopedia (btw how come the slogan doesn't appear on pages or on Google search? Like how SmashWiki says "From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. Wiki") Anyway while I do like the artwork I feel it's out of place for this wiki . <span style="font-family: Algerian;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0087ff"> '''''[[User:supatoad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">Omegα</span>]] [[User talk:supatoad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">Toαd </span>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<span style="color:dodgerblue;">64</span>]]'''''</span> [[Image:Toad.jpg|20px]] 23:15, 5 April 2020 (UTC) | |||
