| Statements such as "With the frequent release of ''Mario'' installments, Daisy has been in over 60 video games so far, the most of any female character besides [[Princess Peach]]." in the intro are meaningless without any further context. Daisy having the second most appearances in video games for a female character is not an important statement to make, since this statement ultimately conflates that her playable character roster role in many small subseries has any sort of meaningful legacy and impact as video games as a whole-this statement in the intro does make a comparison with other female characters in the video games in the first place-when arguably Daisy's appearances as part of a character roster in a Mario spin-off does not. The only reason Peach has this statement is because she's an iconic, recognizable video game icon who has the history behind her to justify statements of her appearances in video game titles.

| I think it's worth mentioning, because Daisy has not just appeared in just a lot of games, she has appeared in a variety of them. This includes being playable in large blockbuster titles such as Smash Bros and Mario Kart and Mario Party etc. for years, and she complements Peach like Luigi does Mario, offering a different personality. --[[User:Memoryman3|Memoryman3]] ([[User talk:Memoryman3|talk]]) 10:59, 14 February 2019 (EST)

| ==Remove the Peach is Daisy's cousin part in the wiki==
| |
| A lot of controversy has happened regarding Peach and Daisy due to Prima's misinformation of Daisy being Peach's cousin being in their books. Oddly, this information has been stuck on the wiki without ever being verified, but I have took time to purchase one of these books. The page number is 29 from the Double Dash strategy book, BUT... the first page of this strategy guide says as follows "The first page has a disclaimer: "the publisher makes no warranty, either expressed or implied, as to the *ACCURACY*, effectiveness, or completeness of the material in THIS book; nor ... assume liability for damages, ..., that may result from using information this book." Basically, they're saying that misinformation can appear in the book and they will not be held accountable for them. So I think it's best if the misinformation would be removed to prevent further confusion.

| |
| == Regarding the Princess Daisy promo picture for ''Super Mario Party'' ==
| |
| Yeah, I think that we are in a predicament here in terms of the newest promo artwork picture that just surfaced involving Daisy for ''Super Mario Party''. Although the wiki's policy says that we aren't to change the infobox picture to the latest "standard" picture of said character until the game is released, would an exception be placed here (because in this one, Daisy is also winking; and in my honest opinion, the one for ''Mario Party 10'' is still worth having active in the infobox because both of her eyes are open). Other than that, I still ''do'' believe this qualifies to be placed in the main article itself when the time comes, especially in the Personality section, perhaps. --M. C. - [[User:MeritC|Profile]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 12:45, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
| |
| :No need to change it right now. New picture can remain in the Gallery for the time being. Though, tbh, the ''Mario Party'' section could probably be reworked. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:24, 14 September 2018 (EDT)
| |
| ::Uh, I was referring to ''when'' the ''Super Mario Party'' game itself gets released early next month; ''that's'' when we have to decide on if the current infobox picture still stays, or if the majority opinion says it needs to be changed. --M. C. - [[User:MeritC|Profile]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 12:35, 15 September 2018 (EDT)
| |
| :I don't see how a wink negates it being good new main art when the previous one is from 2011. It's way too old, so when the game comes out, we should really replace it with this new one.

| |
| ::The thing is that the one we've got now it still a great "standard picture" in terms of representing Daisy herself, so I still think an exception should be made in this case in terms of having that be kept on the article. If anything, though, when the time comes after <i>Super Mario Party</i> gets released, the respective art for Daisy needs to be put someone on the article page itself (I'm still thinking it definitely qualifies for the "Gallery" preview section here). --M.

| == Smash Bros Ultimate ==
| |
|
| |
| Since Smash Bros. came out, I think the Powers and Abilities section probably needs revising - since we have confirmation that the powers she displayed needed to be approved from the Mario IP team. Daisy was shown to float using her dress in that game. Also, can we remove the hurt-box altering thing? It's so trivial and negligible that it doesn't affect how she plays at all. --[[User:Memoryman3|Memoryman3]] ([[User talk:Memoryman3|talk]]) 15:16, 13 February 2019 (EST)
| |
| :Mario IP team? And the differing hurtboxes should stay, as it's one of the few differences she had between her and Peach. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:18, 13 February 2019 (EST)
| |
| Yes. There's an IP team that oversees the character handling and more, for all games a character appears in. It has been mentioned in several interviews, from the Mario and Rabbids team, to Alphadream's lack of original characters in some Mario games, to Camelot talking about how they weren't free to portray Waluigi in any way they like, and even the [http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/07/feature_talking_super_smash_bros_ultimate_with_nintendos_bill_trinen_and_nate_bihldorff Smash Bros team]. As for the hurtbox thing, it's so trivial that it doesn't affect gameplay 99.9% of the time. It's just a result of the differing animations which I already covered in my last revision. --[[User:Memoryman3|Memoryman3]] ([[User talk:Memoryman3|talk]]) 10:54, 14 February 2019 (EST)

| == Luigi's Mansion 3 ==
| |
|
| |
| Hello, I was just seeing this page about Daisy and when I scrolled to the list of appearances I saw something very strange, it says that Daisy appear as an artwork for Luigi's Mansion 3 and I was like "WHAT?" I never heard anything about Daisy been referenced in any way in Luigi's Mansion 3. I search this on google and I found nothing, I also went in the gallery and this artwork wasnt there, that makes me think that this might be fake because why this was just labeled in this list in the end of the page, instead of doing a proper paragraph? Princess Daisy is underappreciated character that I personally like very much, if she was referenced in Luigi's Mansion 3 this would be a major thing that needs to be written in this page, so anyone can check about this?
| |
| {{unsigned|201.95.221.72}}
| |
| :If anything, the artwork would be in the Paranormal Productions area, where there's references to other series like Punch-Out and Metroid. But I'm not sure. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:56, July 17, 2020 (EDT)
| |
| ::From the source that I found for the Daisy appearance (https://mobile.twitter.com/MarioBrothBlog/status/1229877802729660417/photo/1) this is as much of an appearance for Daisy as it is for Wario, Waluigi and Donkey Kong... I really don't think it should count. [[User:Exodecai|Exodecai]]
| |
| :::We don't have this artwork on the wiki, is it directly pulled from Strikers Charged or is it new artwork created as a reference to the game?

| == Changing the current Daisy artwork used on the Mario Wiki ==
| |
|
| |
| Let me explain:
| |
|
| |
| So basically i didn't really like the MPSS artwork being used as the main Daisy article image, so i wanted to change it to another artwork from MPSS (specifically the one where she happily jumps) but since you can't edit Daisy's article page i can't do that... So if anyone can, could you change the artwork for me? Please? Thank you. [[User:Shadic 34|Shadic 34]] ([[User talk:Shadic 34|talk]]) 12:31, January 19, 2022 (EST)
| |
| :It chalks down to personal preference but I still think ''Super Mario Party'' art generally wins out (I'm not fond of the posing of the current one). If you want to change the art, I think you have to first try to get a talk page consensus. If that doesn't settle it, we usually do talk page proposal, such as [[Talk:Rosalina#Deciding_Rosalina's_Infobox_Picture|here]] or [[Talk:Bowser_Jr.#Decide_what_image_to_use_for_Bowser_Jr.'s_infobox|here]]. I think one reason we're not using the jumping one is that her eyes are closed and the posing a little too dynamic, probably why Bowser Jr. doesn't use his handstanding art. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 19:46, January 19, 2022 (EST)

| |
| {{Proposal outcome|vetoed|This is not something that requires a proposal. The artwork will definitely be used, but the rule is that the infobox isn't updated until the related game is released.}}
| |
| Hello! Since we have a brand new artwork for Daisy from the upcoming game Super Mario Bros. Wonder, I think it quite fits for her as her profile artwork for the following reasons: 1. it’s from a mainline game, 2. it’s more recent, 3. it is (or,it will be) higher quality than her MPS artwork. What do you think?

| == Regarding Daisy's physical appearance ==
| |
|
| |
| Not wanting to be rude, but that section of Daisy's page has so much mess going on. Other members of the wiki explicitly stated to not fill the princesses' pages with fan-worship cruft and have trimmed their physical appearance sections (I did it as well), yet some editors here continue doing so. I recommend protecting Daisy's page, or making a disclaimer about it, as I do not want to make edit wars by undoing other users' edits to watch them be brought back. Honestly, seeing every small detail of Daisy's appearance and highlighting how tan her skin is when it's actually really inconsistent from game to game and even between artworks of the same game (she has always ranged from very pale to being just as "tan" as the male characters) is all but encyclopedic. Please stay actually true to sources and avoid POV.

| |
| == Move to "Daisy" ==
| |
|
| |
| {{Settled TPP}}
| |
| {{Proposal outcome|failed|15-18|do not move}}
| |
|
| |
| This is a big one.
| |
|
| |
| The Super Mario Wiki's [[MarioWiki:NAME|naming policy]] suggests that an article should use the most common English name for a subject, with in-game names having priority over all other names. Somewhat recently, a proposal that I wrote was passed to move "Baby Donkey Kong" to "[[Baby DK]]", on the grounds that using a common in-game name takes priority over using the "full name".
| |
|
| |
| This same idea, I believe, is also relevant with Princess Daisy. While "Princess Daisy" ''is'' her full title, and it appears somewhat often in paratext and in in-game dialogue, to my knowledge, '''there has never been a game where Daisy is called "Princess Daisy" in-game as her primary name'''. The use of the title "Princess Daisy" is about on par with how often Bowser is called variations of "King Bowser".
| |
|
| |
| For the sake of completeness, here is every game I'm aware of where Daisy is called "Princess Daisy" in-game (and not just in associated paratext):
| |
| * ''[[Super Mario Bros. Print World]]'', which also uses "Daisy" to refer to one image of Princess Peach
| |
| * ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', where "Daisy" is used as her primary name but she's called both "Daisy" and "Princess Daisy" in dialogue, depending on who's referring to her
| |
| * ''[[Fortune Street]]'', in the same situation as the baseball games
| |
| * ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', where "Daisy" is her primary name but both "Daisy" and "Princess Daisy" are used in different in-game descriptions of Remix 10
| |
| * ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where she's called "Daisy" except once during Palutena's Guidance
| |
|
| |
| While I doubt this is truly a comprehensive list, I spent the past few hours checking this for every single game Daisy has ever appeared in, and I ''can'' confirm that "Daisy" is and always has been her most commonly used in-game English name, ever since ''Super Mario Land'''s "Oh! Daisy".
| |
|
| |
| A very similar argument could theoretically be made for Princess Peach, but I believe that the case for moving "Princess Daisy" to "Daisy" is much stronger. The full title "Princess Peach" ''is'' prominently featured in [[Princess Peach: Showtime!|some games]] in a way that "Princess Daisy" seemingly never has been, and since Peach's official English name has changed over time anyway it's not as simple to check what version of her name has been used more often. As such, this proposal only concerns Daisy, and additional research would be necessary to determine if it would make sense to suggest the same thing for Peach or not.

| #{{User|Super Mario RPG}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|Camwoodstock}} At first, we were honestly kinda skeptical, but after reading the proposal... Wow, they ''really'' avoid using "Princess Daisy", huh? We don't see any particular reason not to go with this. Per proposal.
| |
| #{{User|Tails777}} Oh believe me, this has been on my mind for ages. And you even have the whole King Bowser comparison that's ALSO been on my mind when thinking about this. Per proposal!

| |
| #{{User|Pseudo}} Per all – seems really similar to King Bowser.

| #{{User|Jazama}} Per all
| |
| #{{User|Koopa con Carne}} Per proposal. Peach and Daisy are different characters and the way one is treated should have no bearing on the other.
| |
| #{{User|Shy Guy on Wheels}} Per proposal. This page being titled 'Princess Daisy' feels like something from years ago that people haven't questioned because it seems like it makes sense, but this proposal shows that her name just being "Daisy" is very a intentional and consistent choice.
| |
| #{{User|Blinker}} I think the "keep names short" explanation stops making sense when the same games that use stuff like "Daisy" and "Larry" also have names like "Mr. Game & Watch" and "Light-blue Shy Guy (Explorer)". Per all.

| |
| ====Keep as "Princess Daisy"====
| |
| #{{User|DrBaskerville}} While the proposal makes a compelling argument and isn't wrong in any of its assertions, Peach and Daisy share so many similarities in so many different regards that unless we're changing the name of Peach's page, which I don't think we should and which you acknowledge would be a harder case to sell, then I think both should include "Princess" in their page names. I consider "Princess" as much a part of Daisy's name as "Prince" is to [[Prince Mush]], [[Princess Shroob]], [[Queen Bean]], [[Princess Lipid]], [[King Bob-omb]], [[King K. Rool]], [[Queen Bee]], [[Queen Nimbus]], [[King Nimbus]], or [[King Boo]], etc. (and believe me the list goes on), not just a title that is oftentimes associated with her, like referenced in the "King Bowser" example in the comments. While the naming policy discourages titles in article names, we can hardly rename King Boo's article to "[[Boo]]", King Bob-omb to "[[Bob-omb]]", Queen Bean to "[[Bean]]", Queen Shroob to "[[Shroob]]", etc. There are sometimes when exceptions need to be made, including in cases wherein the titles essentially become their "main" names, which I think includes the cases of Daisy and Peach.
| |
| #{{User|PrincessPeachFan}}: Shall we move all the other articles to not use royalty titles.
| |
| #{{User|TheUndescribableGhost}} The princess name is still pretty common. I mean sure, Daisy is pretty unprincess-like, but it's not like that title is as rare as [[Rosalina|Princess Rosalina]] is. It's like if the SpongeBob wiki went to change Patrick Star's name to Patrick, because it's more common to call him by his first name. I mean, it's not like I don't don't that on Lumpypedia where where Russell the Pirate and Splendid the Flying Squirrel use shorthand names, but that was because of how quickly they were retired while Princess still has enough. It reminds me of the Koopaling situation.
| |
| #{{User|Nintendo101}} I think the arguments raised about other characters are a little dishonest - Daisy is a way more ubiquitous character in the franchise than King Boo or Queen Bee, and the point of this proposal is just that "Daisy" is more commonly used in isolation. That is never done with any of these other characters, and it is silly to suggest that this proposal would lead to all characters with royal monikers being truncated. However, I would not be comfortable with a rename like this unless one was also raised for [[Princess Peach]]. If this proposal was adjusted to allow for that as options, I may change my vote.
| |
| #{{User|Ahemtoday}} The inconsistency between Peach and Daisy's articles would just bug me. Frankly, I feel like they should ''both'' get the "Princess" lopped off.
| |
| #{{User|Technetium}} Per Nintendo101 and Ahemtoday’s comments.
| |
| #[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) - She's only really called "Daisy" in the games where Peach is just called "Peach," which appears to be mainly an attempt to keep the names short (like how many of those same games call Donkey Kong "DK"). The only difference here is that that makes up most of Daisy's appearances, but it's still used otherwise. Granted, I can see it going either way, but reminder that the proposal to move the Koopalings to their more common short names failed.

| #{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|Sdman213}} Per all.

| #{{User|Wallowigi}} Her title is central to her identity, especially since all of her game profiles point out that her character conflicts with the (inconfutable) fact she is a princess. Bowser and Rosalina are bad comparison; the former is seldom called a king (and is generally portrayed as the leader of a population, rather than the ruler of a physical place; he does not even wear a crown, thus he’ll be almost always called just Bowser, as if he was just an army general), while Rosalina’s nobility status is ambiguous. It has always been implied she is royalty (why would she wear a crown after all?) but has never been called a princess in-game, while Daisy has, and multiple times at that.

| Even official material outside of games may prefer using "Daisy" without "princess". Take [https://play.nintendo.com/activities/puzzles/jigsaw-puzzle-princess-peach-daisy-rosalina/ this puzzle activity] on play.nintendo.com, where Daisy is very specifically called just that in the activity's description and the completion message (even though the former also mentions her ruling Sarasaland), whereas Peach is consistently referred to with her full title. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 17:13, June 30, 2024 (EDT)

| @DrBaskerville: I don't believe the naming policy "discourages titles", it's just a matter of using the most common name for the character, which in this case (and not in the other cases you mention) is inarguably just Daisy. Peach is Princess Peach far more often than Daisy is Princess Daisy, hence we should handle these case-by-case. If it's a precedent you want though, there's [[Princess Rosalina]]. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 03:33, July 1, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :I agree that it should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and thank you for the clarification on the naming policy. As I said in my response by acknowledging the validity of the proposal, I don't disagree that Daisy is more commonly used; I do, however, think that "Princess Daisy" remains the best title for the page given how closely tied she is to ''Princess'' Peach. Rosalina was a good counterexample. You have me there, but, again, case-by-case basis. {{User:DrBaskerville/sig}} 04:10, July 1, 2024 (EDT)

| :: No. This proposal is not that we shouldn't use royal titles in general. The question is about the primary name of the subject, and to my knowledge there has never been a game where "Princess Daisy" is used as Daisy's primary name. We don't call Princess Rosalina or King Bowser by their royal titles in their article names either. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 12:50, July 1, 2024 (EDT)

| I guess if I can keep expanding on my arguments, we also have cases such as Eric Cartman, where the character's name is typically Cartman. The other ''South Park'' boys are called by their first names typically, Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, and Kenny McCormick. Sure, wikis don't use Eric Theodore Cartman, but they at least use Eric Cartman, because that is occasionally said. Kenny also has a full name, but it just uses these two names. It's also noteworthy, because Daisy isn't the only [[Wikipedia:Daisy Duck|fictional character named Daisy.]] Heck, [[Creeper Launcher#Daisy|we have another character in the series named Daisy!]] And of course, the Crazee Dayzees. This isn't really the Princess Rosalina situation. [[User:TheUndescribableGhost|TheUndescribableGhost]] ([[User talk:TheUndescribableGhost|talk]]) 20:46, July 1, 2024 (EDT)

| :...What? We aren't a South Park wiki or a SpongeBob wiki or anything else, we're a Mario wiki. It doesn't matter if other wikis would handle this differently, they're entirely separate wikis with their own policies. This kinda is the Princess Rosalina situation - it's a full name that's occasionally but not regularly used. And what do other characters named Daisy have to with anything? "Daisy" on its own is already a redirect to the princess. I'm struggling to make sense of your argument. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 06:05, July 2, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :I agree with Hewer that the policies of other wikis don't generally advise Mario's Wiki's policies, so I would recommend against using other wikis as examples. My favorite part of your argument is reference to similarly named characters, like Crazee Dayzee and Creeper Launcher Daisy. Will we have to add a disambiguation to the renamed Daisy page to be "Daisy (Princess)"? That would defeat the whole purpose of the proposal in the first place. We can be fairly assured Nintendo won't release another character named "Princess Daisy", but, as seen with CLD, they're apparently not opposed to using the "Daisy" name altogether. I think that's just another reason to leave things as they currently are. {{User:DrBaskerville/sig}} 13:56, July 2, 2024 (EDT)

| @Nintendo101 and Ahemtoday: As pointed out in the proposal (and Koopa con Carne's comment above), "Princess Peach" is used more often than "Princess Daisy", so they aren't in the same situation snd should thus be viewed as two separate cases. "Inconsistencies" like these aren't unprecedented - there's [[Donkey Kong]] but [[Baby DK]], [[Mini-Mario]] and [[Jimmy P.]] (with punctuation) but [[Mini Luigi]] and [[Jimmy T]] (without), and we already don't use "[[Princess Rosalina]]". {{User:Hewer/sig}} 05:30, July 4, 2024 (EDT)

| :"Princess Peach" ''is'' used, but it is worth scrutinizing if "Peach" in isolation sees greater use.
| |
| :I have never personally felt convinced about the "Princess Rosalina" argument because it is a much more subdued element of that character, to the point that, growing up, I only learned she was occasionally referred to as "Princess Rosalina" through the references cited on this wiki. Her being a princess is essentially trivial. That is not the case for Peach and Daisy, who in nearly every in-game and paratextual bio are conveyed as rulers of a named land and look the part (from a Western pop culture perspective). The concept of them as true princesses is much more opaque than it ever was with Rosalina. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 23:54, July 4, 2024 (EDT)

| |
| A few people have brought this up now so I should elaborate on this point. I agree that it could also make sense to move "Princess Peach" to "Peach". However, that is not part of this proposal; it would be a separate proposal. Even though the arguments for moving the two articles are ''similar'', the main point I have for why "Daisy" is a better name for this article than "Princess Daisy" ("Princess Daisy" has never been her primary in-game name) does not apply to Peach, so even if these two things ''were'' combined into one proposal, they would still functionally be two independent proposals that people would have to develop opinions on separately regardless. I do not consider "I agree that the thing this proposal suggests should happen, but I also think a different thing that isn't part of this proposal should happen too" to be a sensible reason to vote against this proposal. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 10:35, July 5, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :I understand your reasoning. I personally remain unsupportive of a name-change proposal that only addresses Daisy and not Peach.

| |
| :::Maybe? Depends on what this other proposal looks like. I personally think it'd be healthier to make one proposal discussing the merits of both and delineating the options as "Remove 'Princess' from the titles for Peach and Daisy", "Only move Princess Peach to Peach", "Only move Princess Daisy to Daisy", "Leave them as is." That's what I would've done at least. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 14:14, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

| ::::What is the functional difference between that and two separate proposals? The only thing I can think of is that it would be harder for a joint proposal covering two independent changes to reach a majority vote than two separate proposals, but I'm sure that can't be the reason you'd prefer the two princesses to be covered by the same proposal. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 16:48, July 6, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :::::Quite a few of the arguments for one are applicable to both, and more importantly (for me at least), if the proposal passes, it means they would be changed at the same time so there is no prolonged period of time where one is called "Princess Peach" while the other is just called "Daisy". - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 17:42, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

| |
| :::::::::I thought my vote would be received as understandable and innocuous, not as controversial or unsubstantiated. Perhaps that was naïve of me. Allow me to further substantiate my vote.
| |
| :::::::::In the language (citing this article on {{wp|Film#Language|film}} for context on what I am referring to – I do not mean literal written text) of nearly all of the games in which they both appear, Peach and Daisy are intended to mirror each other, and it has been that case for multiple decades and as recently as the [[Super Mario Bros. Wonder|latest mainline game entry]] in 2023. The relationship between these two as presented is comparable to that of Mario and Luigi, and I think to suggest that is unreasonable or subjective is not substantiated by the games they appear in together.
| |
| :::::::::Consequently, I think to change the name of one character (Daisy) while leaving the other the same (Princess Peach), not only looks imbalanced, but also artificially trivializes their long-standing relationship by passively suggesting that Daisy is a wholistically different (and potentially even lesser) character to Peach. We as users may understand that to not be the case, but I uncritically felt that would be part of the impression to readers with a change for one without the other, in the same way a change of a name proposal affecting Luigi without Mario would be similarly received. Maybe that doesn’t matter to other users, and that’s fine. But it bothers me.
| |
| :::::::::Why is this different from characters like Baby DK or Jimmy P. and their respective counterparts? It is readily obvious. It is because these characters are far less significant. Peach and Daisy are among the most prolific and recurring characters in the entire media franchise. I think Baby DK has appeared in two games. The name discrepancy between him and the adult Donkey Kong is fundamentally unimportant with regards to how they are perceived, and it is silly to suggest it is an analogous situation. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 19:39, July 7, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| ::::::::::I think I understand your position now (Thank you for clarifying! It's very helpful, genuinely.), but I still don't understand why that position means you're voting against the change this proposal suggests. Imagine if I had made a version of the proposal where moving this article and moving "Princess Peach" to "Peach" are presented as two independent options. I'll assume that moving Peach would be about as controversial as this suggestion to move Daisy has been, but that having a "move both Peach and Daisy" option would sway a significant number of people would otherwise not want to move Princess Daisy to Daisy. I'd expect the end result of that to be something around one third of people suggesting to move both Peach and Daisy, one third of people suggesting to only move Daisy, and one third of people suggesting not to move either article. None of these options reach a majority vote, so the proposal is delayed multiple times until it eventually it ends without any consensus, and by default nothing happens and neither article is moved. Alternatively, if moving both articles ''does'' get a majority vote, fully implementing the change would take longer for "Princess Peach" than it would for "Princess Daisy", so there would still be an awkward transitional period where we have "Daisy" and "Princess Peach". In what way would this address your concerns here that wouldn't be better handled by two separate proposals? {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 10:26, July 8, 2024 (EDT)

[[Goomba (film species)]] was merged about two months after [[Snifit (film species)]] even though they were decided by the same proposal, because those changes involved different amounts of work and were done by different editors. Changing "Princess Peach" to "Peach" site-wide would probably happen a little while after changing "Princess Daisy" to "Daisy" even if the two changes ''were'' approved simultaneously. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 18:35, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

| People keep bringing up Rosalina, but has she ''ever'' been treated as a "princess" in-game at any time?

Regardless, the example I used in the proposal itself ("King Bowser") is a better comparison, I think. Daisy is almost never called Princess Daisy, but it's not a strictly paratext-exclusive title like "Princess Rosalina". {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 16:41, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

Yet, ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' has '''King''' Bowser's Keep as a board?<br>As for Rosalina, confusion about the Princess title [[Talk:Rosalina#Princess?|existed before the game came out too]]. Apparently, back when the article was created on July 19 2007 under the name "Princess Rosetta", it was stated that the name came from [https://gonintendo.com/archives/20288-princess-rosetta a GoNintendo article around the time]. They got the "Rosetta" name from a Famitsu article [https://gonintendo.com/?p=21437 which they also posted]; however, said Famitsu article never referred Rosetta as a princess, instead calling her a "mysterious woman" (謎の女性); the "princess" part came from GoNintendo, as they initially assumed Rosalina to be Peach before they found out the other princess's name is Rosetta, then wondered if Mario would be meeting other princesses in Galaxy. The only other official material I can find is [https://archive.org/details/super-mario-galaxy-prima-strategy-guide/page/n7/mode/2up the Prima Guide], which has "Not much is known about Rosalina, the lonely princess who wanders the cosmos in the Comet Observatory [...]" in her cast description. Buuuut Prima tends to get things wrong: the very same guide claims that Koopas like Bowser and Bowser Jr. are based on the kappa.<br>If you're asking me, people outside of Nintendo simply ''assumed'' Rosalina is a princess, ''just'' because she looks a lot like Peach, who ''is'' a princess; but these assumptions were never confirmed to be true by Nintendo.

Either way though, I think we're losing track a bit of the point of this proposal - we aren't debating whether Daisy is a princess, we're debating whether she should be referred to by the name "Princess Daisy" or the name "Daisy", and the latter name is more common regardless of her royal status. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 18:02, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

| @Doc von Schmeltwick: One of the proposal's main points is that there has never been a game in which she's primarily called "Princess Daisy". This isn't just "most of Daisy's appearances", it's all of Daisy's appearances. The "other" cases where "Princess Daisy" is used are in the minority. The Koopalings proposal may have failed, but as I brought up above, it's now contrasted with several successful name shortening proposals, and honestly the Koopalings should be next in line. And do you have an example of the DK thing? Because I've played my share of Mario spin-offs and can't think of one where the primary names for these characters weren't "Peach", "Daisy", and "Donkey Kong". {{User:Hewer/sig}} 17:44, July 6, 2024 (EDT)

| |
| ::I know. The problem here is that Princess Daisy is indeed an official name that reflects Daisy's princess status; the fact that she is called just "Daisy" more often does not go against that "Princess Daisy" is her full "name". If anything, I'd bring the outfit matter as comparison: Daisy has worn her sports outfit in more games than she has her dress as of now, but her picture is (rightfully) portraying a render of her with a dress. I think both this and the name matter make clear that she is a princess first and foremost, with her “casualness” being a secondary trait. Going by the logic of the proposal, that values the number of occurrences rather than their importance, Daisy's profile picture should be changed to one in her sports outfit. Of course, that's not my only reason to oppose the proposal; I think I should have added a “per all, but also” at the start. My actual main concern is the discrepancy with Peach's article title, since it can lead to misconceptions for both new wiki users and newbies with the Mario series- they'd understand that the character is just a casual girl who so happens to be a princess, despite her having been created as a stand-in for Peach itself, thus as the princess of her kingdom, which is the setting of the game itself. The Mario fandom is already chock full of misconceptions (terminally online fans like me know), and the thought of Daisy as being this casual tomboy who is probably not even a princess is already widespread. Changing only Daisy's title and not Peach's despite the two having been created for the same purpose would only bring these misconceptions further. If anything, I would only be in favor of moving "Princess Daisy" to "Daisy" if "Princess Peach" is also moved to "Peach".[[User:Wallowigi|Wallowigi]] ([[User talk:Wallowigi|talk]])
| |
| :::No need to list every single trait that makes Daisy royalty, we know she is royalty. The proposal isn't about discounting Daisy's overall status as a princess, it's about dropping the "Princess" qualifier in the title of her article. "Princess Daisy" may be an official title, as the proposal points out, but the short version "Daisy" is used infinitely more across the franchise, even as far back as her debut appearance. [[Professor E. Gadd]]'s page isn't called "Professor Elvin Gadd" for a very similar reason: his full name may be Elvin Gadd, but the shortened form sees much more use. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 17:46, July 7, 2024 (EDT)

I've been a bit on the long side with words, but basically what I meant to say is "she’s Princess Daisy who occasionally wears sports clothes and is called just Daisy, not the contrary despite the effective number of occurrences of her titled name (and dress) are actually less".

In regards of the infobox, I don't see what is so different when the policies for the title to give an article and for the picture to be put in it are pretty much the same ([element] that is used the most/being judged the most representative of a character).

| :::::::::"Canon" isn't in question here. As the proposal acknowledges, Princess Daisy ''is'' her full title. This is about the naming policy, which recommends using the most common in-game English name for a subject, and in this case that's "Daisy". {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 19:55, July 7, 2024 (EDT)

| ::::::::::If you're sure you're trying to adhere to a policy that reportedly states what you've said, why make a proposal, then? :/ If you've made a proposal, you should expect at least some disagreement, as I've said before. I'm also not the only lone contrarian to disagree with your proposal, as there are other 12 people who have their own reasons to (as I've said, we're not "teams", nor do I consider them my "allies" since it’s not war), but they still are a considerable number of people. You could have just changed the article name to have your "victory" (at least before somebody would have probably reverted it back).[[User:Wallowigi|Wallowigi]] ([[User talk:Wallowigi|talk]])
| |
| :::::::::::What point are you trying to make? Who are you replying to with the "we're not teams" thing? Nobody before you framed it in that way. I'm not trying to win an argument; I'm trying to correct what appear to be misunderstandings of what this proposal is suggesting and the reasons it has for suggesting it. Part of the responsibility of making a proposal is to clear up things like that when they happen. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 20:27, July 7, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :::::::::::No one except you ever said that they expected no opposition, that you are a "lone contrarian", that we're "teams" in a "war", or that we're trying to achieve "victory". You appear to have made up all that pretence for the sake of your strawman argument. (Also, in response to what you said earlier, people can respond to each other's points in a conversation without implying a division of "teams" or a "wrong and right", I'm not really sure what you're trying to get at here.) {{User:Hewer/sig}} 05:31, July 8, 2024 (EDT)

| {{@|SmokedChili}} I don't think that's completely fair. Using the Koopalings as an example, [[Roy (Mario Tennis: Power Tour)|another ''Mario'' character named Roy has an article]], but [[Roy]] still redirects to the Koopaling. Even if another Daisy is introduced, it is very unlikely that Princess Daisy would stop being the primary "Daisy" people associate with the greater ''Super Mario'' franchise, for the same reason [[Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|the several pieces of media called ''Super Mario Bros.'']] don't mean we have to move ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' to "''Super Mario Bros.'' (Nintendo Entertainment System)". {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 09:04, July 8, 2024 (EDT)

| :That SMB example requires an identifier courtesy of us, try more like Super Mario RPG. With Roy redirecting to Roy Koopa and Daisy to Princess Daisy, I see no problem with an exception for shortened name used as a shortcut for a full name. And now that I checked, we're actually late on [[Peach Blossom#Daisy Blossom|another "Daisy" article]]. [[User:SmokedChili|SmokedChili]] ([[User talk:SmokedChili|talk]]) 18:10, July 8, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| ::I don't think I understand this response. The point of the SMB example is that, like Daisy, it doesn't require an identifier, not that it does. And what makes the shortened names acceptable as redirects but not article titles? And are you really suggesting the big daisies in Smash that show up for a few seconds at a time and aren't even notable enough for their own page could have any chance at taking priority over the major recurring character (the very character who produces them) for the "Daisy" name? {{User:Hewer/sig}} 15:08, July 9, 2024 (EDT)

| {{@|FanOfRosalina2007}} This proposal is not about Princess Peach. That would be a separate proposal. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 08:49, July 12, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :@JanMisali: Okay, I used the wrong wording there. I am completely aware that this is a separate proposal. I didn't express my opinion correctly, but I can't think of any other way to put it. I'll go ahead and remove that statement. {{unsigned|FanOfRosalina2007}}

| == If Daisy gets voiced by Deanna Mustard again in Super Mario Party Jamboree, do we change the latest portrayal to Deanna Mustard? ==
| |
|
| |
| Since it’s not a port, it seems like this issue will probably come up. Giselle might have it better listed as a 2023 only portrayal until (maybe) she officially comes back. Like how Kerri Kane did one game and then Laura Faye Smith became Rosalina’s voice actress, but it went right back to Kerri after for Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, Mario Golf: World Tour, and Super Smash Bros. 3DS.

| == I have a small piece of missing information for Daisy's article, but her article is protected. ==
| |
|
| |
| Daisy's article features a relationship section. When it's stated that Luigi has a crush on Daisy in Mario Party 4's strategy guide, there is a citation that the page number is missing. I've found that this information is on page 6. I'm not very familiar with wiki stuff or article editing, so I might just be oblivious to a policy of referencing official scans on strategy guides.
