I thought we only allow articles that have unique elements to the Marioverse. That's the reason why we don't have articles on water, floors, walls, etc.. Meteors are pretty self-explanatory and don't need a separate article.--{{User:Knife/sig}} 17:02, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
:To be honest, I only made this article because there was a red link to it.  Also, what about [[boulder]]s?  They have an article of their own. - [[User:Smashgoom202|Smashgoom202]] 20:43, 22 October 2009 (EDT)

::Why doesn't someone fix the red links, turning them into regular words (remove the brackets).--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

Boulders are a bit different. For example, they release Star Bits when destroyed, an aspect which is unique to the Marioverse.--{{User:Knife/sig}} 00:04, 23 October 2009 (EDT)
:I hate to add fuel into the flames, but... what about [[Lava]]? It's pretty much the same thing as what we have on earth. Unique to it is only the fact that Mario can actually survive contact with lava, but the same applies to the Meteors (getting hit by a rock that traverses space at high speed is pretty health hazardous for a normal human). Should the Lava article be deleted as well (which would be kind of a shame because it is really detailed.)? - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 00:26, 23 October 2009 (EDT)

::Hmm, you put up a good point Edo, but as Knife said, there is no water, floors, walls, plants, etc... I agree, it is vry detailed.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

Well, to be honest, the article only gives the illusion that it is detailed. Beyond that large amount of text is mostly "lava appeared in all these games". Which is redundant information anyway since the article mentions that lava appears in many places in the Mushroom World. It is possible to create an article on water and make it even more detailed since it is a commonly recurring substance.--{{User:Knife/sig}} 01:14, 23 October 2009 (EDT)

:Now that you mentioned it, I reread the articles and basically states: "''Lava is a hazard. If Mario or DK or whoever were to fall into it, theyw ill instantly die. Lava is a very common hazard." I agree that it should be deleted, but first, someone would need to take care of the links to the page so we won't have a massive aftermath of red links.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

::I'll gonna be ridiculous now: I'd actually say it would be valid to create an article about water, seeing how it affects gameplay in different games. In Super Mario 64, it can heal the player (since life=air in that game and being on the surface regenerates air). In Wario Land 2 and 3, it is used to cure most of Wario's status ailments. In Paper Mario and Paper Mario 2, it is deadly for Mario. Super Mario Sunshine even revolves completely around water and it is used as Mario's primary weapon. - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 02:31, 23 October 2009 (EDT)
