Is this article's title conjectural? I know the SSBM deal makes it at least part conjecture... {{user:yellowYoshi398/sig}}

Did you say "Part Conjecture"?<br>[[User:Confused|<span style="color:Red;">I</span>]] [[User talk:Confused|<span style="color:Blue;">am</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Confused|<span style="color:Green;">Confused</span>]] 22:19, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

:You know, half conjecture; half not. There's a whole [[:Template:Partconjecture|template]] for that. {{user:yellowYoshi398/sig}}

Um... Merge with [[Bowser]]??? {{User:Maxlover2/sig}}

I definitly say merge...... - [[User:Ultimatetoad|Ultimatetoad]]

Yeah, merging it with Bowser would make a lot of sense. Keep the screenshot though :P - {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

If it's a conjectural form, then it should be merged. {{User:Plumber/Pignature}} 15:16, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

:I'd have to disagee with the merge. Hope I'm not becoming A Link to the Past. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back!]]''' http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif

I'd say merge. But then again, we do have [[Giant Baby Bowser]].{{User:SpikeKnifeNeedleSword/sig}} 17:20, 20 August 2007 (EDT)

I request a merge with [[Bowser]]! {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

My opinion here is the same as in the [[Giant DK]] article. Besides, Giant Bowser is a boss in [[Melee]] and in [[New Super Mario Bros]]. So we should keep it. And I'm not saying this just because I wrote this article. --[[User:Xeze|Xeze]] 07:19, 6 February 2008 (EST)

I'd say merge. Maybe a proposal is in order? {{User:HyperToad/sig}}
:That name isn't even official. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:26, 9 May 2008 (EDT)

==Merge Giant Bowser to [[Bowser]]==
{{TPP}}
I really don't see any reason to separate Giant Bowser from Bowser, since the two are clearly one and the same.

'''Proposer''': {{User|M&SG}}<br>
'''Deadline''': April 3, 2011 23:59 GMT

===Support===
#{{User|M&SG}} - Per my proposal.
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Regular and Giant Bowser are the same person. There are no difference except with size; even at that point, Mario can still beat him. Zero signing out.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Per discussion, all, and proposal. The name is not even official.
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per proposal; per the precedent set on [[Talk:Giant Kirby]]. This isn't a separate entity, and it's not really an official power-up either: Bowser's always using different things to grow (meat, a minigame in his [[Rump Command]], offscreen magic...), and his "giant" size varies drastically (i.e. [[:File:NSMB7.png|in ''NSMB'']] he's barely any bigger than he is [[:File:World8-CastleNSMB.png|normally]]). Growing huge is pretty much a standard [[Bowser#Powers and Abilities|ability]] of his by this point: it'd be better to give a succinct overview there, rather than keep this mass of unrelated "giant" situations. The fact that "Giant Bowser" appears more than the ''SSB''-only Giant forms is irrelevant, as is the part about plot significance: the Bowser page and the game pages themselves can describe what happens perfectly fine without a corresponding [[Template:sectionstub|sectionstub]] here to link to.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} In some games, we don't even know if Bowser is Giant Bowser or if it is just size inconsistency. Per all.
#{{User|UltraMario3000}} Per all.
#{{user|Bloc Partier}} - Per Walkazo. It keeps consistency. Plus, as far as I know, it's not exactly official.
===Oppose===
#{{User|Yoshidude99}} They are different so this should stay.
#{{User|Kaptain K. Rool}} Per Yoshidude99.
#{{User|Reddragon19k}} Stay! Per both!
#{{User|Tails777}} Per all. Giant Bowser has more appearences than Giant Donkey Kong and Giant Kirby.
#{{User|SWFlash}} Per Tails777.
#{{User|Bowser's luma}} Giant Kirby and Giant DK are just bigger forms of their respective characters, this, however, has a bigger impact on the storyline and appears in many games.
#{{User|Mariomario64}} If it appears in multiple games and affects the storyline of the game (similar to what Bowser's luma said), then it should be a separate article.
#{{User|Bop1996}} Per BL.
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - Mario gets big by eating [[Mushroom]] = [[Super Mario]]. Bowser gets big by eating [[Meat]] = Delete? No thx, my math skills refuse to allow me to support this equation (or proposal).
#{{User|Pokémon Trainer Mario}} Lets merge all of Marios forms into [[Mario]]?
#{{User|Magikrazy51}} This isn't like Giant DK and Giant Kirby, Giant Bowser is a tad more prominent (<-understatement).

===Comments===
I should probably state that I'm not talking about [[Giga Bowser]] (who is obviously a separate entity).  I only did up this proposal, because a similar one was done for Giant Kirby (which passed), along with Giant Donkey Kong (which seems likely to pass).  I would think the same reactions would be applied to Giant Bowser too. {{User:M&amp;SG/sig}} 09:54, 20 March 2011 (EDT)
:That sounds reasonable. I should agree with you on this. I think you're right, we do need to merge this. {{User:Kaptain K. Rool/sig}}
:We have the different articles for the different forms for Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and Wario. You realize that, right? {{User|Magikrazy51}}
::I am Zero! Like what for each one? Zero signing out. {{User|Zero777}}
:::We have Yoshi's forms from Mario Galaxy 2, we have pages for Tiny Wario, Wario-Man and all the forms from the Wario-Land series and we have pages for every single Mario form ever. {{User|Magikrazy51}}
:Shouldn't this at least be merged with Bowser? {{User:UltraMario3000/sig}}
::That is exactly what this is proposing. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
:Orly? I thought the article was going to be deleted. I fail.{{User:UltraMario3000/sig}}
::No you don't, it's just a simple misunderstanding. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

I am Zero! I think Yoshidude99's oppose is invalid, and thus the next two opposers, since he doesn't really explain. Zero signing out. {{User|Zero777}}
:Zero777: I think he means that Giant Bowser appears more than Giant DK and Giant Kirby. {{User:Kaptain K. Rool/sig}}
::I am Zero! He didn't explain anything at all, he just say that he thinks they should be separate without an explanation, so his vote, and the following two voters, is invalid. Zero signing out. {{User|Zero777}}

If anyone can prove that the name is completely official anywhere within the main Mario series (a.k.a. not SSB), I will gladly change my vote. - {{user|Bloc Partier}}

I am Zero! '''GUYS THIS IS ''GIANT'' BOWSER, NOT ''GIGA'' BOWSER!!!!''' Zero signing out. {{User|Zero777}}

Well we have a full list of his moves in Melee and he appears in other games too. Thers my explanation Zero777. --[[File:Yoshi4.jpeg|35px]][[User:Yoshidude99|Yoshidude99]]  03:55, 23 March 2011 (EDT)
