What to do about name

Given that this was only referred to as Star Menu in its debut and the remake, I say we should move this to Menu given that it's the most common name by this point PrincessPeachFan (talk) 20:23, May 16, 2022 (EDT)

Star menu is more recent, so it takes precedence. -- Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 20:58, May 16, 2022 (EDT)

"Menu" is more of a generic descriptor than a name. Nightwicked Bowser 21:01, May 16, 2022 (EDT)

Wait, why does this have an article anyway? It's a pause menu. In other words, not something we typically give full articles to. It's not even a physically existent object within the game's world like the suitcase, it's just a menu.

I'll be honest, I was thinking the same thing. It probably only has an article because of the given name in Bowser's Inside Story, but I guess we could do without it. Nightwicked Bowser 14:38, May 17, 2022 (EDT)

I'm quite amused that the page is laid out like it's an instruction manual. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 00:09, May 18, 2022 (EDT)

The BIS one is at least indicated to be some manner of physical space (and it has an in-game "special" name in multiple languages), though I have no idea why other games are on here. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:31, May 18, 2022 (EDT)

Yeah, that's what I'm wondering myself. The one from BIS and the remake has an actual name as indicated by Starlow and the ones from DT and PJ are just called "menu" and are nothing special. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 09:02, May 18, 2022 (EDT)
