== Should Chuckster be separate from Pianta? ==
I think Chucksters should be given their own page instead of being a redirect to Pianta. They are their own independent characters. They are different from regular Piantas, so they do not belong on this page. Based on this logic, [[Koopa the Quick]] would be a redirect to [[Koopa Troopa]] and [[Goombario]] a redirect to [[Goomba]]. Should we separate Chuckster and Pianta?

They're hardly independent characters, there's zero difference in personalities - or rather, there's no major difference worth noting here. Goombario and Koopa the Quick have their own distinct personalities compared to most if not all of their generic enemy counterparts in their respective games, and thus stand out far too much to simply merge the two articles - in short, your own logic contradicts your point regarding the Piantas. {{User:Lord Grammaticus/sig}}17:16, 11 November 2014 (EST)
The thing is, not all Piantas throw as strong. This strength is reserved for a select few, for the Chucksters. It may not be the largest of differences, but doesn't this still make Chucksters different characters? Here's a better example: [[Missile Bill]]s. The only difference between Missile Bills and Bullet Bills is that Missile Bills aim at Mario. Likewise, the only differences between Chucksters and Pinatas is that Chucksters can throw Mario; yet, Missle Bills get their own page and Chucksters don't. (I'm not arguing, I'm just giving my honest opinion.)

The idea with Missle Bills is that their attack pattern is different enough to be distinct; it goes from "fly forward forever in straight line" to "fly directly after target". Chucksters do have stupid strong throws, certainly, but it's... still a throw, y'know? Many Piantas throw Mario, some just throw further than others. It's the /degree/ in difference that matters, which I should've clarified the first time around. That's on me.
IMO, it's worth mentioning as a subsection of sorts, related to Pianta Village maybe (assuming it isn't already, haven't skimmed the article), but I'm not too sold on splitting it off. {{User:Lord Grammaticus/sig}} 23:51, 23 December 2014 (EST)
== Pronunciation  ==
How do you pronounce Pianta? -Spring_Luigi
:Pee-AHN-ta. It's the Italian word for "plant." [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:47, December 22, 2023 (EST)
