Editing Talk:Johnson

== Merge the Johnson running gag into one page ==

{{TPP}}
"Johnson" as a throwaway name is a running gag in the ''Paper Mario'' series. Since a running gag is all it is - rather than actual specific characters - I think it is the most serviceable to have all the instances on a single page. As it is, one has a page and the other two are on the implied characters page, which feels lopsided in my opinion.

#{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} - Tell me where they went, drop and give me twenty, and check on the anchor.
#{{User|Tails777}} Honestly, I was comparing the whole Jerry the Magikoopa situation with the X-Naut Johnson and how they're in a similar boat. And while I was the one to suggest merging the X-Naut Johnson with the implied characters, I do see the main argument made against it in the fact that he's not technically implied, just not distinguishable. This really feels like a better solution to the entire deal; none of them are really notable enough to have their own articles, but having an article for the running gag itself sounds like a way better solution. I say give those soldiers their due!
#{{User|Sparks}} per all. DANG IT, JOHNSON!
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Per all.
#{{User|PnnyCrygr}} Per everyone, plus the Johnsons.
#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} Per Johnson & Johnson & <s>Knuckles</s> Johnson
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Per all.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} This makes sense to us, but especially per Tails777; every Johnson isn't implied, per say, they do technically appear on-screen, just as an indistinguishable member of a crowd. We think a comparision that makes sense is how the Homestar Runner wiki handles various "characters" like [http://www.hrwiki.org/wiki/Debra Debra] ''(long loading link, the Homestar Runner Wiki servers be slow!)''--characters that do seemingly exist, and are given explicit mentions, but never in a capacity that distinguishes them physically, and notably, refers to different individuals that just happen to share a name. Though, regardless of what happens and what form the new Johnson article will take, we should probably have a link to [[Magic Johnson]] in the header, since that's a real person who happens to be named Johnson and very much is ''not'' implied. ;P
#{{User|EvieMaybe}} the idea of a page for a running gag appeals to my sense of humor, somehow. per johnson and the rest
#{{User|TheUndescribableGhost}} Yeah, this is actually pretty useful to source this running gag.
#{{User|Mushroom Head}} Enter "Bad Johnsons And Other Deleted Nonsense" (except Johnson≠Nonsense). Per all.
#{{User|Dark-Boy-1up}} Per all.
