Merge?
I think we should merge this and Golden Card since they are basically the same thing as they both have the same design and both let you get access to a minigame. I think Golden Card was meant to be the same item as this. Anyone agree? ChompworksEngineer (talk) 09:29, October 20, 2020 (EDT)
- This doesn't seem that dissimilar from other Paper Mario item merges, so sure. LinkTheLefty (talk) 10:04, October 20, 2020 (EDT)
- Yes; they even almost have the same sprite.

- These are definitely the same thing, I'd support merging. Scrooge200 (talk)

Alright, I think I will start a proposal now ChompworksEngineer (talk) 16:36, October 21, 2020 (EDT)
- I don't think you need a proposal. You have enough support at the moment, and there's no evidence that these are different, so you can just go ahead and merge them. See Talk:D-Down Pound. Scrooge200 (talk) 16:41, October 21, 2020 (EDT)
- Actually, I think there should be a proposal, since given that they're still only spiritually the same item, there may be a minor bit of disagreement. Not much, but still a bit.

- These have almost the exact same name (Gold/Golden are pretty much interchangeable), same graphic, same purpose (unlocking a minigame at an arcade). The exact minigame unlocked is different, yes, but that's because the Plane Game wouldn't work in SPM because it lacks the paper curses. Scrooge200 (talk) 16:48, October 21, 2020 (EDT)

Alright, I guess I won’t start a proposal. So, uh, how do you merge pages? ChompworksEngineer (talk) 18:02, October 23, 2020 (EDT)
- You move all the information to one page, leaving the page being merged as a redirect to the other. DarkNight 18:08, October 23, 2020 (EDT)
- I think merging is totally fine. Their usage is similar, both used in the minigame areas, and even sharing the same Japanese name. EC2-Towards (talk) 23:56, December 22, 2020 (EST)
- Ok, it’s finally merged after 5 months. Sorry it took that long, I was on a hiatus from the wiki. ChompworksEngineer (talk) 20:03, March 27, 2021 (EDT)
