I'm not so sure about the identifier. The summary for the move says it's for consistency with titles like [[100m (Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS)]], but the only reason that article uses that identifier is because there's [[100m (Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games for Wii U)|another event with the exact same name in a game with the exact same name on a different console]], a very specific situation in [[MarioWiki:Naming]]. That's not the case here because this is the only subject called a Scrapbook from a game called Super Mario RPG. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 20:44, November 3, 2023 (EDT)

:I'm personally in support of keeping the console name in the identifier. As for the ''Mario & Sonic'' events, even if one is exclusive to a certain version, I'd retain console name in title, but I digress.

:::Could this perhaps be resolved if...the identifier was removed from the remake article, and we just had "abouts" to cover the Japanese/Switch title? I always thought it looked kind of off to see identifiers being used when subtitles are version-exclusive, like ''Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''.

::::I don't think this would be a good course. "Super Mario RPG", "Donkey Kong Country 2" etc. can well refer to their original versions as well as their remakes. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 10:22, November 4, 2023 (EDT)

:::::Very well.

If those are being kept as-is, won't it already be clear what "''Super Mario RPG''" version this article refers to from the shorter identifier and the article introduction?

::::::My suggestion would be to have the identifier in those examples you linked moved to "Super Mario RPG" (no subtitle) per my statement above that it would then unequivocally refer to both versions. If this is done, other subjects from games in similar situations would be treated similarly, such as [[Spiny (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)]] dropping the "Diddy's Kong Quest" part since this enemy also appears in the remake of DKC2. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 09:51, November 6, 2023 (EST)
== Move ==
Now that [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/67#Discourage .22.28.5BTitle.5D for .5Bsystem.5D.29.22 disambiguation format when .22.28.5BTitle.5D.29.22 alone is sufficient to identify the subject|this proposal]] passed, is it okay to move this article to Scrapbook (''Super Mario RPG'') now or does that need its own separate proposal? Or should it wait until that proposal is properly implemented as part of the naming policy? {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 11:51, June 13, 2024 (EDT)
:I think you can go ahead, Misali. Usually, it's expected that the proposer implements passed changes. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 17:27, June 13, 2024 (EDT)
::Alright, went ahead and moved this page and the other one brought up in the proposal. {{User:JanMisali/sig}} 17:59, June 13, 2024 (EDT)
