| At this point, it's pretty clear that the two beverages seen in the ''Mario & Luigi'' series and in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' are simply unrelated, regardless of the reason why the ''Vintage Red'' was renamed to ''Chuckola Cola'' in the English localizations. I propose to split them into the two articles, so we avoid confusion. | | At this point, it's pretty clear that the two beverages seen in the ''Mario & Luigi'' series and in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' are simply unrelated, regardless of the reason why the ''Vintage Red'' was renamed to ''Chuckola Cola'' in the English localizations.

| #{{User|TheFlameChomp}} Per all. Since they have different appearances, and the English name is the only one shared between the two, I feel that it is likely they are unrelated. | | #{{User|TheFlameChomp}} Per all.

| #{{User|Yoshi the SSM}} What makes the two different is that in all languages except English and Russian. The later of which we only know MaLSS's. But, there is also a difference in taste. It is mentioned in the texts, though. MaLSS taste is tang and PMTTYD taste is fizziness. Even if there was a data search on PMTTYD and comparing to MaLSS, the best it would be that the English version would be the same. But even then, they should remain split due to taste differences. | | #{{User|Yoshi the SSM}} What makes the two different is that in all languages except English and Russian.

| #{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} While I agree something needs done, I don't think this is the right way of going about it. It was a replacement, not a rename, given the graphics were changed. | | #{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} While I agree something needs done, I don't think this is the right way of going about it.

| #{{User|Toadbrigade5}} I feel like the name being the same is too much of a deliberate decision to consider them seperate beverages. I don't think we need multiple articles as a result.

| ::The text of the proposal can change, if you suggest a new split, I'll add it to the options. Keep in mind your main point was invalidated, though: the Western localizations that use wine-related terms and the Italian localization that uses the ''Vintage Violet'' term all use the English sprite, so it's not ''Chuckola Cola'' exclusive at all and as such you should at least differentiate between Vintage Red and all the Western counterparts, not just the English one.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 18:47, 11 June 2018 (EDT) | | ::The text of the proposal can change, if you suggest a new split, I'll add it to the options.

| :::Well, given it's referred to essentially as "aged juice" in said versions, which is essentially what wine is (via fermentation through aging), I'm not so sure if my point is really all that invalid.

| ::::In the Italian version of the game the "Vintage viola" is called both wine (vino) and berry juice (succo di bacche). You can see it in this video: [https://youtu.be/FK-ACxms1pM?t=1417]--[[User:Sonic98|Sonic98]] ([[User talk:Sonic98|talk]]) 19:36, 11 June 2018 (EDT)

| ::::I was talking about your hypothesis that the sprite of the violet beverage was used exclusively in the English version to refer to the ''Chuckola Cola'' - it was instead used in the other Western localizations as well, all of which don't use the ''Chuckola Cola'' term.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 22:05, 11 June 2018 (EDT)

| :::::Ye, and they should probably be split alongside Vintage Red. The thing about magenta is that it's a red, pink, and purple all at once, so the old name would still not really be a misnomer if we went with "Vintage Red" as a title.

| |
| ::::::Due to naming policy, we can't really use ''Vintage Red'' name for the page even though in my opinion too it would be a clearer title that helps better identifying the beverage for what it is in the original Japanese version as well as most Western localizations: the English-speaking readers this wiki is catered toward are likely searching for the name of the beverage they find in the English localization of the game, which is ''Chuckola Cola''.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 14:25, 17 June 2018 (EDT)
| |
| :::::::Again, the beverage in the English version is not the same as the one in other versions, regardless of color, as in the English localization alone it is intended to actually be Chuckola Cola. I'm saying the info ''for the English localization only'' would stay on this page, as it was replaced with Chuckola Cola in that version alone, and the item from other localizations, which ''is'' distinct, would get split off. I know this is a little hard to explain, but bear with me here please... [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 16:36, 17 June 2018 (EDT)

| ::::::::I see your point now and you're free to express your opposition to the split, which will be kept. Keep in mind that it's not possible to just split the versions in the other languages - the approach of this page is item-based so it is either split in full or not. We also always refer to the English localizations where available for the titles of the pages. Creating separate pages for regional variations of items so we can create a specific page for the Japanese ''Vintage Red'' that uses a different sprite would require a revision of the [[MarioWiki:Version differences|Version differences policy]] which we can discuss, but I think that changes should be done at that level before we can propose that here.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 23:04, 17 June 2018 (EDT)

| == Alcohol in Japanese? ==
| |
|
| |
| I'm not sure I trust that article (to which the link is now dead) saying it was an alcoholic cocktail in Japanese, since the Japanese name clearly calls it soda. Perhaps the author got ''Superstar Saga'' confused with ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''? [[User:Raymond1922A|Raymond1922A]] ([[User talk:Raymond1922A|talk]]) 14:21, October 30, 2022 (EDT)

| :I looked up an archive of the source, and here's the relevant excerpt.
| |
| <blockquote>An analogous case was found in the GBA game ‘Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga’ (Nintendo 2003), which was rated as suitable for those aged 3 and over in Japan. During the epic, arriving in a strange new land, Mario and Luigi gather a huge collection of super alcoholic cocktails that, if mixed up and fermented in the right location, can produce the ultimate cocktail. As the game aimed to be rated as suitable for the same age group both in the US and in Europe, it was imperative for the localizers to forge a new interpretation of the items’ structure, based on the responsibilities of cultural translation. In the American version the ultimate cocktail is not alcoholic, but just a ‘cola’, while in the European versions it is a bizarre blend of fictional ingredients.</blockquote>

| :It's clearly referring to Superstar Saga, but doesn't seem to accurately reflect what actually happens in the game with the Chuckola Cola/Reserve. I'll go ahead and remove it, the names we have clearly contradict this and it's not a source I'd prioritize since it's just someone researching localization changes. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 14:46, October 30, 2022 (EDT)

| ::She actually worked with Nintendo at the time, in particular she's credited as a localizer in both ''[[List of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door staff#Italian Localization|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[https://www.zeldadungeon.net/wiki/The_Wind_Waker_Staff The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]'', two Nintendo games that she mentioned. Before dismissing that part entirely, we'd need to see the actual dialogue and text in there, as it's possible that what is passed as ''soda'' was more or less implicitly an alcoholic beverage in the Japanese version.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 22:56, October 30, 2022 (EDT)
