: This list is not intended to include every single playable character in Mario franchise unlike the category, it's just intended to include the most common playable characters in Mario franchise, in how many games each one of them is playable, what is the first game in which each one of them is playable and what is the latest game in which each one of them is playable. Each character has to be playable in at least 20 games so far and in at least 10 new games from the last 5 years in order to appear in this list.

::Again, those specifics are arbitrary. Who decided that? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:49, August 21, 2020 (EDT) | ::Again, those specifics are arbitrary. Who decided that? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:49, August 21, 2020 (EDT) | ||
:::If so, what is the definition of the most common playable characters? Maybe you can ask the community. I decided that for 2 reasons: | |||
* If there are less than 20 games in which a character is playable that means the character is not playable in many games so far. | |||
* If there are 20 games or more in which the character is playable but the character is playable in less than 10 new games from the last 5 years that means the character is not probably very popular today. | |||
For example, [[Rosalina]] is considered by me as a common playable character despite there are by far fewer games in which she is playable than games in which [[Princess Peach]] is playable because Rosalina is by far newer, but relatively for a character that appeared in the first time in 2007, despite [[Mario Kart Wii]] is the only [[Wii]] game in which Rosalina is playable, Rosalina as a playable character is common today relatively to the time in which she appeared in the first time. While [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], who appeared in the first time in 1982, appeared in 15 games so far, and was quite popular in his first 10 years of appearance, but he barely appears in 1 game from the last 10 years.

:It's not up to you how this sort of thing works, it has to come to a big agreement within the community for it to be accepted, and clearly no one is accepting those reasons you are giving because they are a bit messed up. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} | |||
::::So the criteria for this list is entirely subjective then. Either list all playable characters or don't list any, because a list where characters have to have an arbitrary amount of minimum appearances (with those appearances on an arbitrary time limit as well) is not helpful. Though I really don't think a list page is necessary anyway when we have a category listing all playable characters. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 12:17, August 21, 2020 (EDT) | |||
:I agree with {{User|Shokora}}'s first comment. {{User:DarkNight/sig}} 12:33, August 21, 2020 (EDT) | |||
