I don't see the particular benefit of pointing out "Hey, there's a pyramid in this game! And that game! And that game!" over and over. The pyramids are either background elements, in which case they definitely don't deserve articles, or they're structures that are present in levels, in which case the pyramid would be covered [[World 2-1 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|as]] a [[World 2-Pyramid|natural]] consequence of [[Shifting Sand Land|covering]] the [[Dusty Dune Galaxy|levels]], making [[Slipsand Galaxy|this]] page [[Birabuto Kingdom|wholly]], truly [[Shifting Sands Stage|redundant]]. There's no way around it: any attempts to expand this article would involve repeating information that's already and more obviously present in other articles. No, [[Mario's Picross (comic)|Mario's Picross]] is not enough to substantiate the entire article, as we don't make a point of lumping every generic jungle or lake into a single article, and personally, the Picross pyramid isn't particularly prominent. Any pyramid with an official name or substantial individualization already has its own article (see: [[Pyramid (Mario Party Advance)]]), or ''should'' have its own article (see: [[Pyramid Land]]). Maybe something can be said for giving the Picross pyramid its own article, but at the very least, the article in its current state has nothing to justify its place on the wiki. | I don't see the particular benefit of pointing out "Hey, there's a pyramid in this game!

*{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} It should not be deleted, but made a disambiguation page. And ''not'' that just plain tragic thing that happened with [[Desert (disambiguation)]]. People aren't going to know the exact names of everything, so they'll search a generic term they can remember. | |||

The proposal to [[Talk:Parrot#Delete_this_page|delete Parrot]] passed, and it too was turned into a disambiguation page.
