It's kind of like [[Talk:The Goodwill Ambassador#Merge with Cackletta|this proposal]]. See, Mr. Pipe is just Mario in disguise trying to be helpful, therefore the same character. Maybe it's different from the other situation, I don't know. | It's kind of like [[Talk:The Goodwill Ambassador#Merge with Cackletta|this proposal]].

#{{User|Baby Luigi}} Mr. Pipe isn't shown to be explicitly Mario until the end of the game. Even then, it's akin to a power-up of Mario: it's a perfect disguise for Mario and it enables him to spawn super-power-ups for Yoshi. We don't merge [[Rookie (Bowser)]] with [[Bowser]] even though they're technically the same character. What makes Mr. Pipe special is that he also received a unique name, and he was specifically intended to akin to a separate character. That is reasons alone I strongly believe that it is better to keep this article separate from Mario's article.

@Ninelevendo: The pipe alias is enough to distinguish this form and Mario. I can say, Dr. Mario is just Mario in a doctor coat, the Black Cat is just Princess Shokora as a cat, Super Kong is just a white Donkey Kong, etc. What makes Mr. Pipe different from other forms is that it's a well-established alias in the game, and the true identity doesn't get revealed until the conclusion of the game, so Mr. Pipe was clearly intended for players to believe he is separate from Mario. Unlike Casanova Koopa or Nurse Toadstool, which were clearly intended to be identified as Luigi and Peach, Mr. Pipe was clearly intended to be taken as a separate character until the end of the game for the shock value. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 21:10, 7 July 2014 (EDT) | @Ninelevendo: The pipe alias is enough to distinguish this form and Mario.
