::::Personally, I don't agree with all the info that was removed. I feel it's necessary to talk about important secondary characters and antagonists in the series. It was still valid info, I still don't see a reason to remove it. {{User:Tails777/sig}}17:25, 22 August 2016 (EDT) | ::::Personally, I don't agree with all the info that was removed.

:::::How important are they to the overall series if they are not recurring characters? It's the individual games' pages' job to talk about the characters relevant to said games. The overall series page should only feature characters who appeared in most games, in my opinion. Otherwise we find ourselves with a bunch of information that is not relevant to the actual subject; which is the Paper Mario series as a whole. At least, I wouldn't consider Dimentio to be relevant to most of the series. Either way, please let me rewrite the page first and then we can discuss which removed information should still be there.

== Page in construction - Let's discuss what to keep or not from the previous version == | |||
I have finished rewriting the page, although it needs to be cleaned up. However, some users have pointed out that I have removed elements which should have stayed, so let's discuss what should belong on this page, what to remove and what to bring back. | |||
On characters: I believe that having a description for every secondary protagonist and every major antagonist only clogged up the page. Not because I think we should remove character pages - they are essential for the RPGs - but because most of the characters who were described there are irrelevant to the Paper Mario series as a whole. Not only that, but the fact there was almost no information on the actual gameplay of the series basically made this page just a messy list of irrelevant things. | |||
On similarities between games: They are from the same series, obviously there will be similarities. I fail to see the point of having such a section. I brought it back because a user pointed out that it bothered them to not have it, but we should still discuss it.
