Although we agreed that the Mario's Time Machine historical figures are both characters and people, there's something off about Hiroshi Yamauchi being stuck between Henry Ford and Ho Ti. I think that it'd be more valuable for the people (developers, actors, etc.) who had a direct hand themselves in the Mario franchise to receive more attention than the fictionalized appearances of a smorgasbord of figures in a single obscure game. I can guarantee that the vast majority of readers who look at this category are more interested in the former category than the latter; one shows the genuine history, for lack of a better term, of the franchise, and the other is a trivia point. In short, I propose that a new category be created to house the historical figures that exclusively appear in Mario's Time Machine. All of them may be people as per the wiki's technical term, but it's a bit disingenuous to treat them as equally relevant.

You mean like something listing the characters from the game? Because we already have a category for that. ^(T|C) 23:57, 9 November 2018 (EST)

I said to split the historical figures from this category, making it distinct from this one. The Mario's Time Machine category also lists characters outside of the historical figures, but that's besides the point. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 10:46, 10 November 2018 (EST)
