I recently added to the '''abilities''' section a mention on the Negative Zone final smash and its possible corelation to his becoming Mr. L in SPM. But I just now found it to be removed. If someone could tell me if it is because it is merely a theory, or if it was because of something else, that'd be helpful. [[User:BoomOfThe4thWall]]

==Split {{fake link|Luigi's Twin}} from [[Luigi]]==

{{Settled TPP}}
{{TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|failed|2-3-17|Do not split Luigi's Twin from Luigi}}
This split was brought up more than a decade ago in [[Talk:Luigi#Split a SMG Luigi into a new article|this proposal]] but the proposer failed to clarify what he meant and it was misinterpreted by those who opposed it. When playing as [[Luigi]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', the NPC Luigi that you'd normally rescue when playing as [[Mario]] still shows up and has completely different dialogue when speaking to the playable Luigi. [[Rosalina]] refers to the NPC Luigi as the playable Luigi's "twin". This would mean the inverse would be true as well; The playable Luigi is the NPC Luigi's twin. For those who opposed in the past proposal on this topic, this proposal would <span style="color:red">'''not'''</span> be splitting every appearance of Luigi into different articles, it would <span style="color:red">'''only'''</span> be splitting the Luigi who '''quite literally''' appears in the same room as the playable Luigi. The playable and NPC Luigi have different heights and one is silent and is more brave and courageous whereas the other is more cautious and has a lot to say. Regarding which Luigi to split into the {{fake link|Luigi's Twin}} article, we could split either into the article since there is not confirmation on which is the real Luigi and which is the impostor. However, I would consider the playable Luigi to be the "twin" since the NPC Luigi's actions are much more accurate to Luigi's character and we see Luigi show up in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' as an NPC before said NPC is later unlocked as a playable character.

#{{User|YoYo}} See it like this, if I was playing Mario Kart as Bowser, and I encounter another Bowser, does that suddenly mean we should create a page for both Bowsers? It's the same character it's just two instances of them, arguably "Super Luigi Galaxy" isn't "canon".

== "The secondary protagonist of the Super Mario franchise" ==
I agree wholeheartedly that Luigi is the second biggest figure in the franchise, but, not to be a nerd here, I think the better term would be "deuteragonist", as the deuteragonist is the second most important character in a story, and that's basically what Luigi is. That would make "deuteragonist" and "secondary protagonist" the same thing. [[Special:Contributions/98.114.59.56|98.114.59.56]] 17:41, December 13, 2024 (EST)
:I believe the terminology has been used before for this article but editors favored "secondary protagonist" due to being less jargony; "deuteragonist" is not a very common term. {{User:Mario/sig}} 17:49, December 13, 2024 (EST)
== Resplit Casanova Koopa from [[Luigi]] ==
{{Settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|passed|11-0|Resplit}}
[[Leo Luster]] is just a more charismatic version of [[Bluster Kong]] that looks nearly identical yet they have their own article. '''Casanova Koopa''' or '''Kassanova Koopa''' (idk which is correct) looks different from Luigi and like Leo is just a more charismatic [[Luigi]]. Also, if this proposal passes then we should also split  '''Lady Fettuccini Alfredo''', [[Wendy|Wendy's]] human form from the [[The Beauty of Kootie|same episode]].

#{{User|Pizza Master}} Per.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} Per proposal, and for the sake of consistency.
#{{User|Wonder Time!}} Per Camwoodstock.
#{{user|Doc von Schmeltwick}} - As long as Fettucine gets split too, that seems fine with me. After all, [[Koopa Zombie]] is a related thing, and there's also things like [[Rookie]] - and that one and Leo don't involve changes in ''species''.
#{{User|Tails777}} At first glance, I'd probably oppose. But since A. Leo Luster has been resplit and B. Kootie Pie's alter ego would also be split, I don't see why not. Per proposal.
#{{User|Weegie baby}} Per.
#{{User|Power Flotzo}} Per all.
#{{User|SComic}} Per.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Per all.
#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Yes.
#{{User|Kaptain Skurvy}} Per all!
