| Does this actually need a page? It's just about crabs as background objects that don't affect gameplay, enemies based on crabs, and things that look like crabs. [[User:Binarystep|Binarystep]] ([[User talk:Binarystep|talk]]) 00:42, 18 April 2015 (EDT)

| :The majority of this article is generic crap and borders on the same type of crap [[Talk:Sun|Sun]] used to have. The information about the Crab for the fishing thing and as Mario Kart obstacles might be reason enough for it to stay, though. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 22:41, 23 June 2015 (EDT)

| Okay, let's face it: this article borderline fails the generic subjects policy. We already have numerous articles on specific crustaceans, such as [[Sidestepper]], [[Clawdaddy]] (including [[King Clawdaddy]]), [[Huckit Crab]], [[Scurvy Crew]], the list goes on. The only non-generic crab on this list is the one from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', though since they're replaced with Sidesteppers in later appearances, I have three options to suggest:
| |
| #'''Trim the article to only include ''Mario Kart 64'' information.'''
| |
| #'''Delete the article and relocate the ''Mario Kart 64'' info to the Sidestepper article.'''
| |
| #And finally, '''do nothing'''.
| |
| It may not be quite a bad as some of the other generic subject articles that I've seen, but it still needs to be evaluated regardless.

| ===Option 1===
| |
| #{{User|Archivist Toadette}} My preferred option.
| |
|
| |
| ===Option 2===
| |
| #{{User|Archivist Toadette}} I'm fine with this option as well.
| |
| <s>#{{User|Waluigi Time}} I don't think generic crabs being something you can crash into in one Mario Kart course is really worthy of them getting an article.</s>
| |
|
| |
| ===Option 3===
| |
| #{{user|Doc von Schmeltwick}} I'd be fine with removing the DKCTV part (Crabby's an implied character) and splitting the hermit crabs (as hermit crabs in real life are actually considered to not be actual crabs, but a relative), but every game appearance on here is an interactive element and thus does not fail the generic subjects policy. They even give coins in Odyssey if chased underground if I recall right.
| |
| #{{user|TheDarkStar}} - per doc, every instance of crabs in the mario series except the dkctv ones is interactive (the ones in 3d world give coins too iirc)

| I'm not fully sure about this one, since this article also mentions crabs from Super Mario 3D World and Odyssey. I am a bit skeptical about the Dream Team section at least. I think I'll wait to see what others think about the matter before I decide on this one. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 17:33, February 22, 2021 (EST)

| :Yeah, I think the Odyssey and DKC entries contain gameplay quirks that I think are worth mentioning. I also disagree with Waluigi Time: crabs are obstacles worth mentioning, they serve as a kart racer's "enemies" in the same way your average enemy does in a platformer game. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 17:37, February 22, 2021 (EST)
| |
| ::"Crab" should really redirect to Sidestepper if the second option wins considering it's another name for it. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 21:56, February 23, 2021 (EST)
