| ==Oh, look, plumber has a page! Let's see... oh...==
| |
| I don't think this article has any encyclopedic use. We don't have [[doctor]] as an article (and there are way more doctors than plumbers in the Mario series), nor [[chef]] (disambiguation page). "But Mario, the most famous video game character, is a plumber!" Well, he [[Donkey Kong (game)|started]] as a [[carpenter]], right? And he also happens to be a [[racer]], [[soccer player]], [[tennis player]], [[villain]], a [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Other#Category:Characters who have kissed Mario|magnet for getting kissed]], and many others. And Mario exercises these additional jobs WAY more than exercising his plumber skills (even though he dresses like one). I think this article is just a cheap way to give pages some more links and that's it. The most useful part of this article is probably the list and the opening sentence (the rest of the mumbo jumbo doesn't really pertain to plumber), but even then, save it for the categories. {{User:Mario/sig}} 14:04, 6 March 2014 (EST)

| As I said above, this page is pointless for several reasons:
| |
|
| |
| *It hardly pertains to ''Mario'', ''Wario'', ''Donkey Kong'', ''Yoshi'', or, god forbid, ''Super Mario's Fire Brigade''. It's an article about a generic subject.
| |
| *Speaking of generic subjects, Mario is also a [[Donkey Kong (game)|carpenter]], a [[Dr. Mario|doctor]], a [[Mario Kart (series)|kart racer]], [[Super Mario Strikers|soccer player]], an aspiring [[:File:Mariopresident.jpg|politician]], a [[Super Mario's Fire Brigade|firefighter]], and a [[Mario Toy Company|company CEO]]. Oh, and [[Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up|many other crap]]. There are also other notable characters as well, and more, compared to plumber (like kart racer). Saying that plumber needs an article because an iconic character (and his twin) has that occupation is a weak argument. Mario doesn't even work like a plumber (I guess in the games) as much as he works as most those jobs outlined above anyway despite his dashing outfit.
| |
| *Most of this article doesn't even relate to plumbers. It talks about some events from the cartoon about the origin of plumbing, I guess, but they're better off in other articles, like Brooklyn Plumbers Academy.
| |
|
| |
| This page works best as a category, just like most other occupations.

| ====Fire====
| |
| #{{User|Mario}} As I said, this article needs to go to the unemployment line.
| |
| #{{user|Epic Rosalina}} I originally thought when I saw the title "Oh no, proposal to delete Mario and Luigi's history?" WRONG! This page is just a bunch of garbage and yes, per Mario.
| |
| #{{User|Glowsquid}} You have a cogent case.
| |
| #{{User|Baby Luigi}} Per all
| |
| #{{User|Lord Grammaticus}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|Yoshi876}} Per proposal.
| |
| #{{User|Bluetoad63}} Junk page, per all.
| |
| #{{User|Tails777}} Per all
| |
| #{{User|SuperYoshiBros}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|MegaKoopa}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|SeanWheeler}} Mario is more than a plumber, and his other jobs aren't detailed on this wiki.

| Wasn't there a proposal a while back that was to delete generic pages like this? If I recall, the [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive 27#Reality vs. Fiction|proposal]] was to delete the articles of common, everyday things that didn't play a noticeably different role within the Mario series. Doesn't this fall into that category? {{User|Tails777}}
| |
| :It doesn't delete ALL generic pages (we still have [[Door]]). And I'd still like to have a little discussion first before deleting it. {{User:Mario/sig}} 02:34, 7 March 2014 (EST)
| |
| ::Me and my mate had a discussion on this yesterday, it does seem like a useless page considering doors are just doors and I don't really count it as a major gameplay function. {{User|Yoshi876}}
| |
| :::Well in any case, this seems to fit into the category. {{User|Tails777}}
