Talk:Dolly

Shouldn't this be moved to Dolly considering that's the in-game name? Binarystep (talk) 18:22, 25 March 2015 (EDT)

You're right. It's also the Dolly in the Nintendo Player's Guide, so I'm not sure what happened. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:55, 25 March 2015 (EDT)

Create page for Peach Doll (the one from Super Mario RPG)

This talk page section contains an unresolved talk page proposal. Please try to help and resolve the issue by voting or leaving a comment.

Current time: Tuesday, October 22, 2024, 10:26 GMT

The Mario doll and Bowser doll from Super Mario RPG have their own articles. I see no reason for the Peach Doll from the same game to not have its own article, too. Additionally, this doll and Dolly are clearly different dolls with different owners so I will not be including a support option for merging the two dolls.

While there are other Mario dolls in the game and Geno has obvious plot importance, I'm unsure if the Bowser doll really needs a distinct page either. At most, a single page for "Gaz's toys" might be OK, but even that might be much. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:08, September 17, 2024 (EDT)

...does the current article even cover the SMRPG Peach doll? All it says on the matter is that "A similar doll previously appeared in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars," indicating that the article already doesn't see the doll as the same entity. It doesn't go further into detail, when Bowser doll does, even though there's a bit of significance given how Booster wants to use the Peach doll to practice his wedding with. Furthermore, "Dolly" isn't featured on the {{SMRPG}} nav template (which isn't included on this article either), and no SMRPG article links to here either. Only thing I could find is that Peach Doll redirects to here, that's it. rend (talk) (edits) 01:12, September 17, 2024 (EDT)

I forgot Booster had a Peach Doll as well... I guess this is kind of trying to stem this turning into a case like the helmet thing that only recently got split, or even worse back when Jammyfish was included on the Preying Mantas page because a "there's a similar jellyfish enemy in this game" morphed into full coverage.

The proposal is now more accurate. -- Pizza Master 01:35, September 17, 2024 (EDT)

@Shadow2 Your reasoning for voting to oppose is irrelevant to the actual proposal. Whether or not you believe the Bowser doll article should be deleted is not relevant to the discussion regarding the Peach Doll. As such, I recommend you change your reason for opposing or I will have your vote removed by an administrator for lacking relevance.-- Pizza Master 03:21, September 22, 2024 (EDT)

How is Bowser doll not relevant to the discussion? You even used it as an argument yourself in the proposal. Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 12:58, September 23, 2024 (EDT)

@Hewer I suppose you're correct. That said, I believe Shadow2's reasoning is rather insensible and lacks merit. The argument that they believe the Bowser doll article should be deleted and doesn't explain why they think so being used as "evidence" that an article for the Peach Doll from Super Mario RPG shouldn't be created is a very weak and flimsy reason to oppose.-- Pizza Master 21:31, September 23, 2024 (EDT)

@Mario jc, @Nightwicked Bowser, @Porplemontage, @RHG1951, @Shokora, ↑ shows the reasoning for why I believe Shadow2's vote should be removed from this proposal. Feel free to disagree and let the vote stay up if you so choose.-- Pizza Master 13:59, September 26, 2024 (EDT)
