Merge with Gold Mushroom

Proposal.svg 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: Friday, June 28, 2024, 17:43 GMT

Merging this and Gold Mushroom would be nice for consistency, as there are items in this franchise that have had varying appearances (which is seemingly the only reason the articles are separate) that are under the same article. Removing the (crownless) in the title would probably be best as well, as the crowned variant uses a different name. A disambiguation link is enough to distinguish the two.

If this proposal passes, the Gold Mushroom article would be deleted and merged into this one. I've got a mockup article in my sandbox if this proposal passes and goes into effect.

Support

  1. OmegaRuby (talk) Per proposal.
  2. Hewer (talk) Per proposal, the distinction between these two based solely on colour differences that are so negligible they could easily be stylistic variation feels pretty arbitrary (I've actually been meaning to propose this for two years but could never be bothered)
  3. Swallow (talk) Per proposal.
  4. MegaBowser64 (talk) Per all. At this point it's kind of silly (and confusing) that we're keeping these separate. You can argue all you want about differing function, but as far as design goes, the two are totally similar enough to merge.

Oppose

  1. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) - If the (very different in functional concept) SNW item was meant to be the same as the NSMB2 item, why make a new render in the first place?
  2. FanOfYoshi (talk) Per Doc von Schmeltwick.

Comments

@Doc: How is that more unlikely than the SNW mushroom being the MP2 one (different shape) or the M&L one (different spot colour)? And why did they make new SNW renders for Yoshi Eggs and Bowser Jr.? Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 11:42, February 6, 2024 (EST)

This page is more a "the rest" in comparison to the NSMB2-based one being intended as a distinct recurring item. As for the other SNW ones, that's not really comparable as those still used the same base model and textures (plus Yoshi Egg spot color and pattern varies anyway) unlike the mushes, and of course Jr.'s gonna have a new one, he's a character with things like limbs that need positioned.
