May I ask where the term "Master" in this context originated? It certainly wasn't in any Donkey Kong game I've played. -- [[User: CM August|CM August]]

DKC3, it has KAOS called "Master" several times, as well as in the manual for it. Now that I think about, it just seems to be a term of respect, like "Lord Bowser", with no other significance or meaning. -- [[User:Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]] 18:47, 16 November 2007 (EST)
Perhaps we could note in the article that the title is conjectural, and cite the source of the name.--[[User:CM August|CM August]] 19:32, 16 November 2007 (EST)

Is Master a royal title or is it just King K. Rool who is royalty or all the former masters {{User|Goomba's Shoe15}}

This article is useless. I don't wanna set up a talk page proposal this time. There's no need to go through two weeks to see this page nuked. I'm going to remove all the links to this page. All I'm hoping is if people agree with my actions. 3...2...1... delete. {{User:Mario/sig}} 15:56, 11 June 2014 (EDT)
:I'm uncomfortable with deleting an article based on "I don't like it". Removing deletion tag, get a TPP going. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]][[User:Ghost Jam|Chris]][[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 14:57, 18 June 2014 (EDT)
==Delete "Master"==
{{Settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|passed|11-1|delete}}
I've wanted this article to be deleted (reasons now clarified below), but since it has garnered no attention, I guess I have just have to set up a 2-week long talk page proposal. Oh boy, here it goes.
#The writing is pretty bad, with even some speculation about it. By itself, it's not a great reason, but it's not a good sign when the bulk of the article is composed of this trite "it's unknown if" phrase.
#[[Master|The other Master articles have much more use than this.]]
#This article is just overall pointless. [[Princess]], [[Doctor]], [[King (title)|King]]<sup>[[King|(disambig)]]</sup>, all these don't have standalone articles and for a good reason. They're pointless.
#See [[Talk:Super Star (Yoshi series)#Delete Super Star|Super Star (Mario Party winner's title)]] and [[Talk:Superstar|"Super star" terminology from SuperStar saga]]. I can't find the particular revision of these articles for context, unfortunately.

====Support====
#{{User|Mario}} It's a pointless title that serves no purpose other than doing a negligible job at preventing orphan pages, I guess.
#{{User|Baby Luigi}} This article lacks masterful writing and masterful reasons to stay here. Delete it. Per Mario.
#{{User|Vommack}} Pointless page, just remove the links and the orphan problem is solved.
#{{User|Ghost Jam}} Per all. I'd suggest making sure that all information here is present in the host articles they were culled from, then expanding the disambiguation page to reflect the change.
#{{User|Tsunami}} Well, I was about to say no, because there are some informations here, but an article for this is really pointless. We can delete it but the infos should go to the intrested articles (King K. Rool and others).
#{{User|Ninelevendo}} Per all
#{{User|Lord Grammaticus}} Per all.
#{{User|Koopakoolklub}} Per all.
#{{User|SuperYoshiBros}} There's no point in this article, really...
#{{User|WhiteYoshi2014}} Per all. There's not much  to see here.
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per all.
====Oppose====
#{{User|Joseph}} It's an article' and i want it to stay.
====Comments====
@Joseph: What-the...I don't think I can express my reaction in words {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 15:55, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
:This should be self-explanatory, but...It should be removed.--[[User:Vommack|Vommack]] ([[User talk:Vommack|talk]]) 16:17, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
::[[File:Marioshock.png|20px]] My reaction exactly. Some people are just hard to work out. - {{User:Ninelevendo/sig}} 17:19, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
:::[[File:PMSS - Red Toad Thinking Artwork.png|20px]] Meanwhile, this is mine (I think). Maybe he don't knows that the quantity of articles is secondary to the QUALITY... it is because we delete new one-liners, right, and issue the stub and newstub templates, right? Without me, Mario Maker would be deleted (when I finished to write, I find out that someone else did a one-liner of it)... Sometimes, such minor things, that appear in not so much games and rarely, or are not affected by the player, are just to put into the articles od which they speak. This article is the prove, because it has some infos, but are not affected by the player and is a minor thing. {{User:Tsunami/sig}}
::::Well, take comfort that [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Mushroom_World&oldid=1648585 Mushroom World's old state] is a bazillion times less useful than most minor articles on the wiki. {{User:Mario/sig}} 15:45, 28 July 2014 (EDT)
:A bit like [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Mario_Golf:_Advance_Tour&oldid=1637423 |this] as opposed to [[Mario Golf: Advance Tour|this]] at the moment since I edited it? This article is basically a Disambiguation with fluffy writing over the top of it. It's not needed. - {{User:Ninelevendo/sig}} 03:31, 28 July 2014 (EDT)
Since we're coming up on the deadline and it looks like we've got a deletion on our hands, I'd like to ask fellow ops and interested editors to please make sure any information that will be moved back into host articles or the standard disambiguation page is fished out before the deletion takes place. If time is requested to cull said information, please contact an ops and we'll work with you. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]][[User:Ghost Jam|Ghost Jam]][[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 14:19, 7 August 2014 (EDT)
