Editing MarioWiki:BJAODN/Proposals/April Fool's 2025

==New Features==
===Give 7-Eleven an article===
In light of [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/April Fool's 2025/A sneak peek of Mario Kart for the Nintendo Switch 2|our recent collaboration with Nintendo]], it's time that we give {{wp|7-Eleven}} an article. ''Mario Kart 11''{{'}}s logo is clearly designed after 7-Eleven's, and it would be wrong not to give it an article. Besides, it has already made an appearance in [[Super Mario no Kōtsū Anzen|a PSA about traffic safety]].

'''Proposer''': {{User|Maw-Ray Master}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====7-Eleven Support====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Rykitu|utikyR}} It's about time.

====Stalled Oppose====
#{{User|Hewer}} What on earth do you mean the logo is "clearly designed after 7-Eleven's"? What's clear is that it's an entirely original logo unlike any other logos that anyone has seen before.
#{{User|Technetium}} Per Hewer.
#{{User|Arend}} Can't we just put this info in a "list of references" section and call it a day? I find it a stretch to give a subject like this a whole article to itself just because a game's logo resembles ''its'' logo. We're not giving Popeye its own article because Mario, Pauline and DK were inspired by Popeye, Olive Oyl and Bluto, now are we? Unless 7-Eleven has a significant collaboration with Mario, then this is not needed.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} I would prefer a {{fake link|list of minor cross-promotions}} article.

====Pit Stop====
''Mario Kart 11''{{'}}s logo is clearly based off of that of 7-Eleven's. Let me show them side-by-side for comparison:
{{multiple image
|align=right
|direction=horizontal
|image1=7-Eleven logo.png
|width1=150
|image2=Mario Kart 11 logo.png
|width2=400
}}
To the left is 7-Eleven's logo, and to the right is ''Mario Kart 11''{{'}}s. Side-by-side, the resemblance is uncanny; why would the latter not be based on the former? [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 08:47, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:Yeah, right. Next you'll say the Super Mario franchise logo is based on the Super Mario Wiki logo. [[File:HamburgerSSBB.PNG|35px|link=User:Hewer|Hewer]] ([[File:HamburgerSSBB.PNG|25px|link=User talk:Hewer|talk]] &middot; [[File:HamburgerSSBB.PNG|25px|link=Special:Contributions/Hewer|contributions]] &middot; [[File:HamburgerSSBB.PNG|25px|link=Special:EditCount/Hewer|edit count]]) 10:06, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
::If an article is not made for 7-Eleven, it should at least be mentioned in a section for ''Mario Kart 11'' on the [[List of references in the Super Mario franchise]] page; though we'd be doing ourselves a disservice by not giving an article as it has already made a prior appearance in the franchise and serves as the basis for ''Mario Kart 11''{{'}}s logo. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:To play Devil's Advocate, the orange on the ''Mario Kart 11'' logo is brighter than on the ''7-Eleven'' one, while the green on the former logo is darker than on the latter. Additionally, the ''11'' in the Mario Kart logo mimics the 7 of the ''7-Eleven'' logo instead of the "Eleven", so in reality, it reads ''11-Mario Kart'' if it were based on the 7-Eleven logo. {{User:Arend/sig}} 13:28, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:::Actually, 7-Eleven has also colloborated with [[Nintendo]] for certain promotions, such as the [[Super Mario Bros. 25th Anniversary]] and [[Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary|35th Anniversary]], so that might also be a reason to create the article.

===Invent time travel to the future===
Despite having already waited two months and sixteen days since the reveal of the [[Nintendo Switch 2]], I find myself utterly incapable of waiting one more day to tune in to the long-anticipated Nintendo Direct: [[Nintendo Switch 2]] presentation that will be held tomorrow. Don't you also hate it when you have to wait for time to pass before things can happen?

Well, no longer! I come to the proposals page today with a revolutionary idea that would allow our great wiki to finally solve this age-old problem: time travel! I believe this will serve as an adequate solution to our troubles in the present. By travelling to the future, we could document things on our wiki before they even happen! We could overcome the limitations of time to finally become the most complete and comprehensive Super Mario encyclopedia possible! If a better idea has ever been put forward on this page before, I'm not aware of it.

Now, my original idea for this proposal was to introduce a "Time Button" to the header bar, which a user could simply click when they want to head to the future. Unfortunately, I believe this would put too much strain on the technology to be feasibly implemented at this time, so I'll just have to trust the users of the wiki to limit their usage of it. Maybe if I went to the future first to test the technology out, I could return with the more advanced technology that would allow a true Time Button to be implemented in accordance with my vision. But you've got to support the proposal before that can happen.

It is my sincere belief that this is the best course of action the site could take, and I only hope I have convinced all of you as well. After this inevitably passes, the wiki will certainly have a bright future ahead of it. If you doubt that, well, support the proposal anyway so I can find out myself.

#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)| Future SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} I'm fine with it, just like how my past self is fine with it, but don't get TOO carried away with it. I did, and that caused a multiversal collapse, which is why I went back in time to now.
#{{User|OmegaRuby}} [[Nintendo Today!|Nintendo Today?]] More like Nintendo NOW!

#{{User|Technetium}} I hate Daylight Savings!
#{{User|OmegaRuby|Future OmegaRuby}} Wait! Don't do it! I come from the future and the Nintendo Direct gets delayed indefinitely! IT'S NOT WORTH IT!
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} If one were to travel into the future and then travel back into my current time, once the present becomes the future, one runs the risk of running into their other selves. This interaction could possibly cause a chain reaction that could unravel the fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} Help

#{{User|Tails777|Past Tails777}} Guys, did you see the reveal for the GameCube? That things gonna be revolutionary!
#{{User|Nightwicked Bowser}} The consequence of time travel in ''NEO: The World Ends With You'' is all I'm saying.

@Maw-Ray Master: Huh, my thorough research suggested that meeting one's past/future self was totally fine with absolutely probably no risks involved.

===Introduce one-option proposals===
Lately, I've noticed a problem with proposals. Sometimes I have a great idea but there's too many choices and everyone else doesn't want to vote for the option I support. To solve this problem, we should introduce one-option proposals to make sure that everyone can only vote for the option the proposer wants. If this proposal passes, it will retroactively be considered the first one.

'''Proposer''': {{User|Waluigi Time}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Yes====
#{{User|Waluigi Time}} What a great idea!
#{{User|BMfan08}} I ate the No option... sorry
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} The best thing next to the zero-option proposal!
#{{User|Hewer}} Choice is overrated.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} <s>Short-term</s> gain...

====One comment====
I think we should implement zero-option proposals; these proposals immediately pass upon being written, as there is nothing to vote for. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)

=== The newest feature of all: New Features 2 ===
Now now, let me explain...
 
We, in the history of Super Mario Wiki, have had many pioneers of our time. Some have made great contributions. Some have built a legacy. And some have become an influence to us all. A long time ago, a proposal to [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Proposals/April Fool%27s 2021#Remove removals|remove all removals]] stalled in discussion. And that got me thinking. What if we added a second new features category? Think of it! This category as it is is already filled to the depths. It is flawed. A second new features category would allow for more proposals, more creativity, and overall more ingenuity. We have come to a new era in the Super Mario Wiki. Join me, will you?
 
'''Proposer''': {{User|BMfan08}}<br>
'''Deadline''': {{wp|Heat death of the universe}}
 
==== I agree, let's do it! ====
#{{User|BMfan08}} Of course I like my own idea, why wouldn't I?
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Per proposal 2.
 
==== Two is two much, let's just do one and a half instead ====
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Secondary choice½.

==== I'd rather remove all new features instead ====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} If the other sections on this page except the Removals section do not get second sections, I can't support this proposal.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Would this mean the original "New Features" section gets renamed to "New Features 1"?

==== Comments 2 ====
How come only the New Features section gets a second section? A second section needs to be created for every section on this page. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:You're missing the point. If we created a second, say, Removals section, that would undermine creativity and cause mass destruction to this wiki, not to mention undermining my very inspiration. [[User:BMfan08|BMfan08]] ([[User talk:BMfan08|talk]]) 11:56, April 1, 2025 (EDT)

===Create species pages for every character with "palette swaps"===
[[File:Mario palette swaps Brawl.png|thumb|One of the species in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'']]
As a biologist and ecologist, I've been curious about the "palette swaps" in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise. In my research, I noted that the "palette swaps" often featured the same character, but in different colors, which I mentioned was impossible outside of the use of a cloning device. Or is it? These "palette swaps" might just be members of a collective species, its members resembling but not being the same character they share their names with. As such, we should create species pages for every character with "palette swaps", as these are clearly their own species, rather than just clones.

'''Proposer''': {{User|Maw-Ray Master|A curious scientist}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2024, 23:59 GMT

====Classify the species====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master|A curious scientist}} Per proposal.
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} "[[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi (species) (species)]]" needs to exist. It just does.

====Leave them undocumented====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} This would result in a lot of repetitive articles. {{fake link|Mario (species)}}, {{fake link|Mr. Game & Watch (species)}}, {{fake link|Wario (species)}}, and {{fake link|Link (species)}}, for instance, would all end up being very similar to each other.
#{{User|Hewer}} My own research into the matter suggests that those are just time travelling past/future versions of the same characters.

====Research notes====

==Removals==
===Remove everything [[Wario]]-related on the Mario Wiki===
{{Proposal outcome|passed|5-8|Remove any Wario-related content from the Mario Wiki, but only keep the ones where he loses/gets beat up}}
[[File:SMP Smash and Crab solo player fail.gif|thumb|Come on! Don't you want just anti-Wario stuff?]]
As a member of the '''Wario Extermination Team''', I propose that we remove everything on this wiki that is related to [[Wario]] in any way, shape or form. It's called the '''Mario''' Wiki, not the Wario Wiki after all! That greedy fool had his fun... and now it's time to end it!

If this proposal passes, all Wario-related stuff will be erased from the wiki... <big>'''FOREVER!!'''</big> The only files that will stay are the ones that show Wario losing/getting beat up, like the [[Smash and Crab]] GIF up above. You know all those anti-Wario GIFs I've uploaded? I prepared for this!

'''Proposer''': {{User|Sparks}}<br>
'''Deadline''': Whenever this reaches four support votes

====So long, Wario! (support)====
#{{User|Sparks}} You HAVE to choose this!
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} As a fellow member of the Wario Extermination Team, I support.
#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} {{file link|WarioTrialSNL.png|Wario tricked us.}}
#{{User|Koopa con Carne}} yellow mario go boom and pew
#{{User|Mario}} If we don't contain it then it'll just spread to user talk pages.

====Let him stay! (oppose)====
#{{User|Technetium}} Wario did nothing wrong.
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} If this proposal doesn't also remove the anti-Wario content, it is contradictory to its purpose, and, as such, I can't support this proposal.
#{{User|Arend}} Naw, I pick, WAAAAARIOOOOOO
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Although his [[WarioWare (series)|later]] [[Wario Land (series)|spin-]][[Wario World|offs]] don't feature many appearances by [[Mario]] himself, his first appearance was in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]].
#{{User|Hewer|Hewario}} Get Wario'd! [[File:Bubblewario.jpg|50px]]
#{{User|Tails777}} If I can't have my Wario voice clip of him saying "Oh baby!" while chowing down on whole cloves of garlic, I will riot.
#{{User|FanOfYoshi|FanOfWario}} He is still human like us!
#{{User|Wynn Liaw|Mona}} [[File:WWMPG Mona NO.oga]]

==Changes==
===Ban the use of imperial measurements on the wiki, and replace such units with their metric equivalents===
The {{wp|imperial units}} system is an outdated form of measurement that is literally [https://www.statista.com/chart/18300/countries-using-the-metric-or-the-imperial-system/ only used mainly in the United States and Myanmar, as well as in combination with the metric system in the United Kingdom]. As such, I feel that we should ban the use of imperial units on the wiki, in favor of switching over to the {{wp|metric system}}, with any units of measurements already in imperial units converted to their metric equivalents.

'''Proposer''': {{User|Maw-Ray Master}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Metric Support====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} Let's eradicate these measurements from the wiki!
#{{User|Hewer}} Down with imperialism!
#{{User|Jdtendo}} Per proposal
#[[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maestro de las morenas gigantes]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|hablar]]) No comprendo las unidades imperiales, porque no vivo en los Estados Unidos.

====Imperial Oppose====
#[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) - U'ut da fquak iz uh killawm'ter?
#{{User|Nelsonic}} I'd prefer if this was more of an unwritten rule, something that isn't considered an offense.

====Measurement Comments====
@Doc von Schmeltwick: A kilometer represents of unit of distance equaling 1,000 meters. I can't express this in imperial units; I've sworn to not use those units; the rates of conversion for imperial units is confusing and is ultimately not international (most of the world solely uses the metric system). [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 15:01, April 1, 2025 (EDT)<br>
@Nelsonic: We have to ban imperial measurements on this wiki. It's the only way that people will switch over to the metric system. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 16:43, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:{{@|Maw-Ray Master}} Would that put using imperial units as a [[MarioWiki:Warning policy#Level four offenses|bannable offense]], or simply something that is reverted without question? [[User:Nelsonic|Nelsonic]] ([[User talk:Nelsonic|talk]]) 16:55, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
::I'd say that it would be the latter; banning users just by using imperial units doesn't seem to be fair; however, I would recommend that they get a reminder not to use these units if they continue using them after the proposal passes; the [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] should also be modified to reflect this. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 17:02, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:Metric temperatures are for squares, though, who cares what ''water'' does when it's 0 or 100? I care more about what the human body does in either circumstance (on one end, die, on the other end, also die), which is what Fahrenheit measures. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 16:58, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:{{@|Maw-Ray Master}} Understood. Would this mean that, as usual, repeated failure to adhere to reminders given would result in a warning, failure to adhere to warnings would result in a last warning, and so on? [[User:Nelsonic|Nelsonic]] ([[User talk:Nelsonic|talk]]) 17:08, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
::If this is similar to disregarding other rules repeatedly, then yes. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 17:24, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
===Merge Mario to Goomba===
The pages [[Mario]] and [[Goomba]] being separate feels strange to me. Can you think of a time they aren't together? because I can't. The wiki should probably merge them, yeah?

'''Proposer''': {{User|PopitTart}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Support: Merge Mario to Goomba====
#{{User|PopitTart}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} He wasn't watching ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]''.
#{{User|Hewer}} [[File:SMO Art - Goomba Capture.png|50px]]
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} Per all. I wouldn't object to [[:File:BD TV Computer Choice.png|merging Luigi with Koopa Troopa]] either.

====Oppose:Keep Mario and Goomba seperate====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} I think a {{fake link|Goomba (form)}} page would make more sense.
#[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) - A major mistake in research was made; Mario shouldn't be merged to Goomba, but he should be ''moved'' to {{fake link|Gomba}} (with one "o")

====Move Both to Goombario====
#{{User|GeneralDonitsky}} It's only logical, guys. Goomba + Mario = Goombario.

====Comments (Marioomba)====
I made a proposal for merging every article related to other articles below, including the Mario and Goomba articles. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)

[[File:SMO Mario Pirate.png|64px]] Could we merge them both to [[Captain Goomba (Mario Party 8)|Pirate Goomba]] instead? {{User:SolemnStormcloud/sig}} 13:52, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
===Move Koopa Troopa to Koopa Shell===
Much like my previous proposal, this proposal is based upon the fact that [[Koopa Troopa]]s are never seen apart from their [[Koopa Shell]]s. Really, theres no reason these should be considered distinct subjects!

'''Proposer''': {{User|PopitTart}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Support: Move Koopa Troopa to Koopa Shell====
#{{User|PopitTart}} Pro perposal.

====Oppose:Do not Move Koopa Troopa to Koopa Shell====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} I would support if this were more similar to the [[MC Ballyhoo]]/[[Big Top]] situation.

====Comments (Koopa Trell)====
I made a proposal for merging every article related to other articles below, including the Koopa Troopa and Koopa Shell articles. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
===Merge Lakitu with Spiny Egg===
[[Lakitu]] throws [[Spiny Egg]]s. These eggs then turn into [[Spiny]]s. To be honest, I'm not sure what the best option here is, so i'm making this a multi-option proposal. Option 1 moves [[Lakitu]] to [[Spiny Egg]] while keeping [[Spiny]] seperate, while Option 2 moves them both to [[Spiny]].

'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Option 1: Merge Lakitu with Spiny Egg====

====Option 2: Merge Lakitu AND Spiny Egg to Spiny====
#{{User|PopitTart}} Po propersal.
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} Tratipop Rep.
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} They're all members of [[Bowser's Minions]]; this seems reasonable.

====Oppose: Do nothing====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} What about variants of Spinies and related items, such as the [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]?

====Comments (Lakiny Egg)====

:I made a proposal for merging every article related to other articles below, including the Lakitu, Spiny Egg, and Spiny articles. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)

===Separate Top of Warp Pipe from Warp Pipe===
This one is a bit ''out there'', but I think it would be better for documentation. [[Warp Pipe]]s appear primarily in 2D platformers, right? And those 2D platformers don't let you see the top of the pipes. Really, that's a distinct experience reserved for 3D games. So, I say these apperances should be in a new page titled {{Fake link|Top of Warp Pipe}}.

'''Proposer''': {{User|PopitTart}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Support: Separate Top of Warp Pipe from Warp Pipe====
#{{User|PopitTart}} Per nothing.
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} Per Popitart.
#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Per Etno Polino.

====Oppose: Do not split====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} The tops of [[Warp Pipe]]s are clearly visible in 2D platformers; otherwise one would not be able to travel through them in the games.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} The tops of Warp Pipes are seen on the cover art of ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''.

====Comments (Pipe up)====
Uh, yeah, where's the option to... Like, merge Koopalings to Bowser?--{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 03:27, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:At this point, we should merge every article that is related to each other. In fact, I might actually make a proposal to do just that. This proposal runs counter to this. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 08:47, April 1, 2025 (EDT)

===DAMN [[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|SUPER MARIO BROS.: THE LOST LEVELS]] ALL THE WAY DOWN TO HELL, AND FURTHER BELOW!!!===
This game is a travesty, alright? Poor level design, forced gimmick, traps EVERYWHERE!!! I can't it with this game!!! This proposal will decide what fate this game will endure [[file: random pic.jpg|thumb|🖕]]
'''Proposer:''' Me

'''Deadline:''' Over my dead body!
====LAMBAST the Lost levels====
#[[User:FanOfYoshi|YoshiHater]] ([[User talk:FanOfYoshi|talk]]) Fuck this game.
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} To be honest, the game's title is completely misleading; none of the titular levels aren't even considered to be partially lost by The Lost Media Wiki, and I feel that the game's title should have "The Lost Levels" omitted from it. This might result in it sharing the same name with ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', but we can always distinguish it from that game by adding a console identifier after the title. Alternatively, we can flat-out merge the article to ''Super Mario Bros.'', since it is heavily based on this game.
#{{User|Hewer}} Yeah, our article on this game isn't cutting it. We should replace it with a Mario reskin of an article from some other wiki to save face.
#{{User|GeneralDonitsky}} This game should be Doki Doki panicking, because we're not standing for this anymore! There's only ONE Super Mario Bros. 2!

====No, it's a MASTERPIECE!!! Have mercy on it!====
#{{User|LinkTheLefty|LostTheLevel}} I like Lost Levels a lot.
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|The True Lost Levels}} Mess with SMB:TLL (my brother), and I end this wiki.
#{{User|Rykitu|Nintendo Switch Online Rewind Feature}} There are worse games...
#{{User|Nelsonic|Famicom Disk System}} [[Hotel Mario|Per the above vote]].
#{{User|Camwoodstock|''Super Mario Bros. Special''}} That's my sister, mister!
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} ''[[Goombario and the Adventure of the Hot Lava Rocks]]'' is a much worse game, totally unpredictable and unfair.

====Why not discuss ZA instead====
#[[User: FanOfYoshi|Serena Anderson from the Pokemon X and Y games]] Uh yeah, i am really skeptical of the game, aren't you guys?
#[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) - Assuming "ZA" refers to ''Zelda's Adventure'', the underrated CD-i game.
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} [[File:Mariobackflip.jpg|64px|link=Backward Somersault]]
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Or "ZA" as in [[Zappa Mechakoopa|ZA-ppa Mechakoopa]].

===Merge Koopley and Korvallis===
They're clearly the same person. [[Koops]] says so himself. Just not sure what name to use for the merged page.

'''Proposer''': {{User|Technetium}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 15, 2025, 23:59 GMT

====Move to Koopley====
#{{User|Arend}} Most common name. "Korvallis" was only mentioned by the Creepy Steeple Boo, and only in the Switch remake at that.

====Move to Korvallis====
#{{User|Technetium}} Way cooler name.
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} They're both [[Koopa Troopa]]s, and I'm sure Koopley would love to reunite with his father.
#{{User|Sparks}} I like this idea!

====Move to [[Kuzzle]]====
#{{User|GeneralDonitsky}} This poor senile man needs people to support him in his life.

====Do nothing====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Per... Something.

====Comments (hi Comments I'm dad)====
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} am I doing this right

I like your suggestion so I'll keep it, but maybe we should merge Kuzzle and Kroop instead? [[User:Technetium|Technetium]] ([[User talk:Technetium|talk]]) 11:02, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:They can all be merged with each other through my article-merging proposal below. [[User:Maw-Ray Master|Maw-Ray Master]] ([[User talk:Maw-Ray Master|talk]]) 11:51, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
===Merge every article that is related to each other in some way===
Several proposals requesting the merging articles to other articles today have prompted me to create a new proposal that will settle all of these proposals. I propose that we merge every article that is related to their other articles to their original source. This would mean that [[Luigi]] would be merged to [[Mario]]; [[Waluigi]] is merged with [[Wario]], etc. I know this also means that ''[[Club Mario]]'', which I have working recently and honestly enjoy, will be merged to ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', but at least it means it will be seen by more visitors, as the latter is much more popular than the former.

EDIT: After merging all of the articles on the Super Mario Wiki, we will merge with all of our subsidaries. Vandalism and sockpuppet talk pages will not be included. Afterwards, we will begin merging with websites outside of the [[MarioWiki:Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance|NIWA]].

====Merge everything====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} I finally get to reunite with my parents, who are [[Mega Maw-Ray]]s.
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} THE REVIVAL OF THE SUPERARTICLE IS UPON US!
#{{User|Tails777}} If everything is in one article, we won't have to argue about splits and merges.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} [https://youtu.be/FYx_IGBX-EE Seddie]
#{{User|Wynn Liaw}} ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' fans made me support this, 'cause it'll result in the merger of ''[[MarioWiki:BJAODN/April Fool's 2025/A sneak peek of Mario Kart for the Nintendo Switch 2|Mario Kart 11]]'' and ''[[User:Wynn Liaw|Super Smash Kart]]''.
#{{User|Test<!--archive note^ Wynn Liaw-->|MarioWiki Fan}} Let's take over the internet.

====Keep seperate====
#{{User|Technetium}} No because everything would end up merged into [[Donkey Kong]] and I don't want to acknowledge the existence of… donkey kong country hd returns.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Wouldn't this mean that everything before 2023 and after 1994 just gets merged into [[Charles Martinet]]?
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} The possibility that [[Donkey Kong Jr.#Donkey Kong Jr. Math|Pink Donkey Kong Jr.]], [[Baby Fat|Fat Yoshi]], and [[Captain Goomba (Mario Party 8)|Pirate Goomba]] could share the same article is too big a risk. That kind of power would destroy the <s>world</s> wiki as we know it!
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} I don't want Parabones to end up in the same article as Shellcreeper.
#[[Wikipedia:Pacifist|Pacifist]] ([[Wikipedia:Talk:Pacifist|talk]]) I don't want to be greeted by information about [[Wikipedia:World War II|World War II]] when I read ''[[Mario Paint]]''.

====Mergeomments====
I'd like to thank [[User:YoshiFlutterJump|YoshiFlutterJump]] for [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Proposals/April Fool's 2020#Merge every article into a single superarticle|inspiring me]] to come up with this idea.

{{@|Maw-Ray Master}} Wouldn't that mean that [[MarioWiki:Users]] also gets merged to stuff, though? As an example, {{@|Camwoodstock}} has made many ''[[ Super Mario Bros.

Even if it was divided by the amount of characters, there are only 219 characters in the page. Would the page's contents have to be duplicated?

:{{@|Maw-Ray Master}} Yes, but isn't the MarioWiki homepage technically related to anything featured on it, meaning (as of now) that it would need to be merged with [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/April Fool's 2025/A sneak peek of Mario Kart for the Nintendo Switch 2|A sneak peek of Mario Kart for the Nintendo Switch 2]], [[Nintendo Today!]], [[Nintendo Switch 2]], [[Nintendo Switch]], ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]'', ''[[Mario Kart XXL]]'', [[Waluigi Pinball]], [[Mario]], [[Super Mario (franchise)]], [[List of official Nintendo stores]], [[Nintendo Entertainment System]], [[MarioWiki:Mushroom World Encyclopedia]], [[MarioWiki:Maintenance/Main page]], [[Special:RecentChanges]], [[MarioWiki:Polls]], [[List of games]], [[MarioWiki:About]], [[MarioWiki:Help]], (etcetera)?

===Merge all users===
This is the solution for wiki peace. If we all merge into one user, there will be no more proposals, vandalism, edit warring, you name it. Of course, the hivemind will be named after me, its creator. But you can suggest other names, I guess... There aren't any better ones though!

====Create the hivemind known as Technetium====
#{{User|Technetium}} As proposer.
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} Choices are stressful. This removes all choices. Technetium supremacy.

====I don't need friends!====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} Wait, isn't [[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] the proprietor of the site? If so, the hivemind should be named after him.
#{{User|BMfan08}} Are you kidding? If we were the sum of all users, then we'd do ALL the vandalism and ALL the nasty stuff. Plus, since we have every role simultaneously, we'd ban ourselves, and boom. Dead wiki.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} [[User:Willy on Wheels|Oh dear.]]
#{{User|Nightwicked Bowser}} Per the [[Glohm]] effects.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} We can't let everyone else fall in here with us
#{{User|Tails777}} Look, sometimes I just wanna vandalize an article and be able to blame someone else for it and I can't do that if we're all one.
#{{User|Rykitu|utikyR}} Per Maw-BMsonwickedstock777
#{{User|Arend}} I'm afraid merging all of us together would erase our individuality...

===Fix neutrality===
This entire site has a pro-Mario, anti-Bowser bias. What happened to neutrality?? What happened to getting both sides of the story???

'''Proposer''': {{User|Green Star}}<br>
'''Deadline''': Right now

====Stay based====
#{{User|Green Star}} Per my reasoning above.
#{{User|BMfan08|Super WARIO Wiki}} I don't care, just as long as that red cap guy gets his just desserts! HAHAHA!
#{{User|FanOfYoshi|Yoshi's island wiki}} I am tired of being thrown off cliffs. Good thing i learned Flutter Jump later on... But still!
#{{User|FanOfYoshi|His Coconuts gun can fire in spurts}} I'm not really sure to be honest... I have hung out with both Mario and Bowser and uh... Bowser seems pretty chill towards me... But not towards Mario? I wonder what's up... I'll ask Diddy about it.

====Stay biased====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} This hatred towards Bowser is clearly misguided, but the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] doesn't deserve to be covered on this wiki. Given it has committed numerous atrocities against the Bowser Democracy Party (BDP), including [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Fanon#1989 Mushroom Kingdom massacre|a massacre in 1989]], they, as well as its affiliates, should be banned, with all pages related to them being deleted.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Bowser has had time in the sun... rarely, but he still has. He had a few games to himself (''[[Bowser's Lair Hockey]]'', ''[[Koopa Taiji]]'', ''[[Bowser's Diary Quiz]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'')...

====what====
Surely a proposal of this caliber would require a name change to the wiki, right? [[User:BMfan08|BMfan08]] ([[User talk:BMfan08|talk]]) 12:47, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:Yes, "Super Mario & Bowser Wiki" would be better suited. {{User:Green Star/sig}} 13:08, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
===Merge all categories into {{fake link|Category:Category}}===
Our category system is seriously flawed. Oftentimes, a category's definition ends up becoming too broad or vague and one of us has to create a proposal to rework the category or ''outright delete it''. However, I've come up with a solution to remedy this. Rather than tightening any definitions, we should go even ''broader'' and merge all the categories we have into a single category called {{fake link|Category:Category}}! When [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|everyone is here]] and every''thing'' is here, there wouldn't be a concern that the category's defintion is too broad—it literally can't ''go'' any broader!

Of course, Category:Category would also be a subcategory of Category:Category, because recursion ''always'' makes a category better.

#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Yo dawg, I herd you like categories, so I put an category in your category so you can categorize while you categorize!

====Category:Opposers====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Wouldn't this mean that {{fake link|Category:Policies}} gets merged with {{fake link|Category:Browser games}}, which in turn is merged with {{fake link|Category:Pac-Man series}}, which is merged with {{fake link|Category:1-UP Studio games}}, which is merged with {{fake link|Category:People}}, etcetera?

====Category:Comments====
I made a proposal that will merge every article that is related to other articles above. With my proposal passing, all of the categories would be merged to [[MarioWiki:Categories]], with this page becoming a catch-all category of categories.

===Lessen the number of images for each subject===
Why have full galleries for every piece of artwork or sprite for everything? Back in the early days, six images was considered a lot, and look what we've devolved to! Why have {{file link|SML2 Artwork - Goomba.png|this}} when the readers obviously only need {{file link|SMBW Goomba.png|this}}? This proposes to give everything '''one''' total sprite or model and '''one''' total piece of artwork, to be used on any game where they might be pertinent. When a new one comes out, why make a separate file when you can just ''replace'' the old one?

===Add MarioWiki information to the MarioWiki===
Did you check Nintendo Today! today? Well, you better! Nintendo has officially acknowledged the Super Mario Wiki! The MarioWiki is therefore official media. By that logic, the entire history of the MarioWiki should be documented on the MarioWiki! I propose that by this standard, all users go on the [[List of implied characters]] article.
Later debates can be made to adding Pirate Goomba to the internet memes article since the wiki has now been officially acknowledged.

'''Proposer:''' {{User|DryBonesBandit}}

'''Deadline:''' ''We're official now, who cares?''
====Reject "User:" namespace, become implied====
#{{User|DryBonesBandit}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Sparks}} YES!

====Be forgotten to time...====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} I think we'd fit better in the [[list of unofficial media acknowledged by Nintendo]].
#{{User|Koopa con Carne}} No, because MarioWiki doesn't actually exist.

====Newly official comments====

==Miscellaneous==
===Expand the scope of the wiki to include non-official media, such as fanfics and fan-theories===
My friends, liberation has arrived. We shall no longer refuse the truth;this project is not everything Mario. Who sais Mario can only be defined by Nintendo? Miyamoto may be Mario's father, but this project should not be about Mario the character, but Mario the idea. Mario is a world-changing figure and every single interpretation of him should be included. Every fanfic... every theory... every creepypasta... and every overly-edgy 2000s parody video. Let's embrace the truth, Mario shouldn't be in the clutches of Nintendo, but he should be FREE! REVOLUTION TODAY! First articles that should be made are; Mario is a sociopath, The Super Mario Five Nights at Freddies mod and Mr. Doctor.

'''Proposer:''' {{User|GeneralDonitsky|The Mario Liberation Front}}

'''Deadline:''' ''Liberation can't be limited by a deadline, thank you very much''

====People who love kittens and puppies (yes)====
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} Yes, and if we do this, then we should go beyond. Not just all the Marios, but all those who inspired the existence of Mario, and all those whose existence was inspired by Mario. Then we keep going. Until ALL are covered in this wiki. NOTHING WILL STOP THE LIBERATION OF MARIO!
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} More content for the wiki!
#{{User|Murphmario}} Supporting this so that ''Super Mario 63'' can finally get the page it rightfully deserves.
#{{User|Sparks}} ''Five Nights At Wario's'' is pretty big for something unofficial. I can help with that!

====People who don't (no)====
#{{User|Nelsonic}} This would result in pages regarding ROM hacks (i.e. ''B3313''), making it a lot more likely that [[Nintendo]] attempts to DMCA this site.

====Fanon comments====

===Ban Bowser from this wiki===
We've had enough. After countless second chances, it is starting to become very clear that Doug Bowser has no intentions of changing his ways. Despite hundreds of terrorist attacks on the Mushroom Kingdom, thousands of sockpuppet accounts and an untold number of Toads killed, we were always ready to forgive Bowser and give him another chance at redemption. But this time he crossed the line. Today, in an unthought of act of cruelty, Bowser has stormed into the mushroom castle and kidnapped Princess Peach. I call for Super Mario Wiki staff to block Bowser once and for all. 

'''Proposer:''' {{User|Axii}}<br/>
'''Deadline:''' 5 seconds.

====Ban Bowser.====
#{{User|Axii}}
#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} #CancelBowser

====Oppose====
#{{User|Maw-Ray Master}} Why should Bowser be banned? The [[Mushroom Kingdom]] regime should be overthrown instead, as it has committed numerous atrocities against the Bowser Democracy Party (BDP), including [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Fanon#1989 Mushroom Kingdom massacre|a massacre in 1989]] that slaughtered many [[Koopa Troopa]] demonstrators trying to protest several issues in regards to the Mushroom Kingdom, including the inflation of [[regional coin]]s and corruption, as well as civil [[Goomba]]s, in attempt to infringe on personal rights and freedom. As such, we should actually ban the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], as well any affiliates of it, from the wiki.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Shouldn't we also ban [[Mario]], then? He kidnapped [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] and has killed hundreds of thousands of Bowser's minions... [[User:Nelsonic|Nelsonic]] ([[User talk:Nelsonic|talk]]) 15:23, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
#{{User|Tails777}} Bowser did nothing wrong.
#{{User|Sparks}} I'm fine with banning Wario, but Bowser? He's a nice guy at heart. He just doesn't show it.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68kvj3-pfJo Mario Builder 64] making up [[Crystal Tap|Water Diamond]] and [[Flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|Fire Spitter]]). I think this is liberating and not at all limiting, like that one time [[Game Freak]] was too cowardly to canonize a Flying-type Eeveelution because they knew they couldn't outdo a fan's perfection. If [[Nintendo]]g can't give us the true canon names, then the least we can do is, as fans, allow them as redirects.

:<small>Because, Hewdawg, I want to ground my proposal in a little bit of realism on the off-chance that this somehow doesn't get removed at the end of the day. In reality, I don't really care either way.

Didn't we used to call them Fire Spitters back in the yolden days? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:18, April 1, 2025 (EDT)
:Oh, wow, [[Special:Diff/527117|we did]]! I remembered them being "Great Balls of Fire," but that's from [https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/n64/198848-super-mario-64/faqs/54401 somewhere else.] ROM hackers sure like our old junk.

Just to be clear, I define a fan project, within the scope of this proposal, as something fanmade that's playable (i.e. games) or watchable (e.g. animations). There ''is'' a subset of people who'd be more familiar with fan-names and then get confused when they can't find what they're looking for, but I didn't have other wikis in mind. (And we do keep a few fan redirects around; Fire Spitter was moved before it became a general rule to not delete moved conjectural titles.)

Put Proposal title here

数日前にこのウィキを見たんだけど、とても奇妙に思えたんだ。マリオもルイージも知らないし、クッパとは一体何者なのか、みんな嘘をつかないでほしい、混乱させるから por lo que deseaba añadir al nombre de cada una de estas paginas un (personaje ficticio) para no confundirme questa era la parte principale della proposta, la seconda era cambiare le immagini della pagina in immagini più semplici come questa [[File:SOrbettiPersonalimage.png|frameless|right]] ایہہ میری تجویز اے امید اے تہانوں پسند آئے گی

===Split {{fake link|Mario's hands}} from [[Mario]]===
These are two completely different entities, almost never seen with each other. However, [[Luigi]] is frequently seen alongside Mario's hands, so those two should probably be merged. Anyways, Mario's hands have a lot going for them. [https://smashboards.com/threads/super-mario-64-codes.260979/ They are playable in] ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', for one. However, Luigi is frequently {{file link|BlueStone.png|erroneously}} depicted with the hands of Mario, hence why I believe the hands should be split and Luigi should be merged.
