Editing Talk:Super Luigi (series)

==Mushroom Planet==
''The Super Luigi Series then came to the theaters of the Mushroom Planet.'' I can't find any sources backing up this claim. Was this just assumed knowledge, or what? -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]][[User:Ghost Jam|Chris]][[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 00:19, 28 February 2007 (EST)
:No idea, but for the record, {{user|Paper Jorge}} added that sentence. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 01:12, 28 February 2007 (EST)
::I heard that somewhere before.... :P {{User:3dejong/sig|if that helps.. it doesn't.}}

:::Actually it says so "Now in theaters" or something like that somewhere in the game. {{User:Paper Jorge/sig|I'm sure in the back of Writer's Croner or something like that.}}

== an article for each of them ==

Should I make an article of all of the books?

(p.s. I will have the stuff straight from the book.)

{{User:Great Gonzo/sig}}

Nope, not enough info is know about each. Just add the info to this article.{{User:Knife/sig}} 16:17, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
:I guess i should do that, I forgot I even asked that question...{{User:Xzelion/Signature}}

== Capitals? ==
Is the ''S'' in Super Luigi '''S'''eries supposed to be capital, or minuscale? {{User:Super Paper Mario Bros./sig}} 20:42, 15 October 2009 (EDT)
:I'm pretty sure it's never referedt to as the "Super Luigi Series". I'll move it. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}

== What does Luigi have to say about it? ==

Hey, can we have a Transcript of what Luigi has to say about his own adventure alongside what the books say? Or is that somewhere in the Paper Mario TTYD article?

== Reference... ==

Has no one seriously noticed the obvious reference the whole thing makes? It appears to me to be based on, if not the story, then at least the names of For the Frog the Bell Tolls (there's even a Chapter in the game itself referencing this as well) Here's a link, judge for yourselves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaeru_no_Tame_ni_Kane_wa_Naru It's mainly the food thing that made me realize it.

== 64 a reference? ==

:Trivia
:''The first installment is for sale at '''64''' coins, one of many references in this game to the [[Nintendo 64]]. The next three installments are for '''128''' coins each, a reference to the canceled game [[Super Mario 128]].
Are the numbers 64 and 128 references? I'm thinking it's because game programmers just like powers to two. (2<sup>6</sup> = 64, 2<sup>7</sup> = 128) [[User:Another gossip-loving Toad|Another gossip-loving Toad]] ([[User talk:Another gossip-loving Toad|talk]]) 09:01, 29 December 2014 (EST)
::64 in any game on any console besides nintendo 64 is considered a reference, because of the nintendo 64 era. Mario has had 64 mentioned in his games more than any, and the number 64 is closely associated with Mario Bros. The point of that trivia is to point this out, and it is ok.[[File:Toad-brigade model CTTT.png|35px|]][[User:toadbrigade5|<font color=red><big>'''Toad'''</big></font>]][[User talk:toadbrigade5| <small>and his</small><font color=grey> '''brigade!'''</font>]][[File:Toadette model CTTT.png|35px]] 11:52, 29 December 2014 (EST)

== Anime comparison? ==
: "The ending to the Super Luigi series also bears parallels to the Super Mario anime film Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen! In the film, after Mario defeats Bowser and rescues Peach, the dog who has been traveling with the brothers is revealed to be a prince who is engaged to Peach, but was transformed into a dog by Bowser. The spell was broken after Mario defeated Bowser, and Mario leaves the Mushroom Kingdom with Luigi, dejected. The differences between the film's ending and Super Luigi's ending is that Haru was an ally to the Mario Bros. while the Chestnut King was the monster that Luigi's end goal was to defeat."

This part may not be necessary, it seems a bit like a tangent to me. While the similarities are there, it is quite obvious the stories are not the same. Therefore, I don't believe it makes sense to even put it in there. However, I do not know if the story is based on the anime, and since it could be, I am posting.

:If I recall correctly, the anime is obscure even in Japan. I think it's very unlikely an intentional reference is attempted here. These plot twists don't even relate to each other, just identity reveals at minimum. It's like saying, Tippi is Bleck's girlfriend is a reference to the Mario anime movie, and that somehow actually is closer to it. {{User:Mario/sig}} 15:29, August 18, 2023 (EDT)

Alright then, I've removed it. However it is still quoted here if needed or used for reference in the future.

== Split Super Luigi subjects into a dedicated list article ==

{{TPP}}
There's no denying that Luigi's story (as told through him and the [[Super Luigi (series)|Super Luigi]] books) in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' are a significant part of that game, perhaps more significant than a lot of things that do get articles on this wiki. However, its nature as an in-universe yarn means most subjects that belong to it are locked to the "List of implied" articles ([[List of implied characters|characters]], [[List of implied events|events]], [[List of implied items|items]], [[List of implied locations|locations]] and [[List of implied species|species]]). 

I don't think this is an appropriate way of covering this. It's essentially a short story that comes bundled with the game, but it's relegated to a wiki footnote because of how it is presented. Sure, it's small and brief, but if it had come in a little book bundled with every GameCube disk, every character would probably have its own article already. So, here's a compromise:

Taking inspiration from Wikipedia's {{wp|Characters of Chrono Trigger|character lists}}, this proposal aims to split off every subject from the Super Luigi stories into a joint article (perhaps titled {{Fake link|List of Super Luigi subjects}}) wrapping them all together in a nice, easy to access (and easy to link to) package. Each subject would recieve a section, separated by what type of subject they are (character, location, object, etc.), detailing their role in the story, including differing accounts between Luigi's spoken story and the Super Luigi books. It's worth noting that this article already kind of does this, but only for Luigi's partners (because only they have articles).

The affected subjects are listed under this collapsible section.

<div class="contentbox mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"data-expandtext="Show affected subjects"data-collapsetext="Hide affected subjects">
*Characters:
**Luigi and his partners (recieving a [[Template:Main]] linking to their respective articles)
**Chestnut King (explaining the Goomboss ambiguity)
**Cranberry
**Hizza
**Minister Crepe
**Princess Eclair
*Events:
**Jazzafrazz Town Drama Slam (could be merged with Jazzafrazz Town's entry)
*Items:
**Dramalama Plaque
**Marvelous Compass
**The Big Green 01

**Circuit Break Island
**Grimble Forest
***Rapturous Ruins
**Hatesong Tower
**Jazzafrazz Town
**Pudding Continent
***Rumblebump Volcano
**Strudel Continent
***Plumpbelly Village
**Waffle Kingdom
*Species:
**Luffs (can easily be treated as a character for simplicity)

====Split 'em!====
#{{User|EvieMaybe}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} It would be very nice to have these organized once and for all. This has always been a weird edge-case and its current organization being so weirdly spread out has struck us as strange. Per proposal!
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Sparks}} Per all.
#{{User|Blinker}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Pseudo}} This would be much more convenient for both readers and editors than the bloated "list of implied..." articles that currently contain these subjects.
#{{User|Jdtendo}} Per Pseudo.

====Keep 'em where they are!====

====Comments====
Would it be possible to add the [[Goomboss#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Chestnut King]] to the list of characters, using [[Template:Main]] as well? {{User:SolemnStormcloud/sig}} 15:10, March 20, 2025 (EDT)
:shoot, i completely forgot about him. thanks for the reminder! {{User:EvieMaybe/sig}} 16:07, March 20, 2025 (EDT)

Could there be an option to split them to this page instead? It's not too big of an article, might be nice to have it all in one place. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 15:33, March 20, 2025 (EDT)
:i'd rather leave that to a second proposal after the page is done. it makes more sense to me to separate the ''TTYD'' item from the subjects that appear within the story, and it's hard to know how big the page will be before it's made (maybe i should've made a draft...) {{User:EvieMaybe/sig}} 16:07, March 20, 2025 (EDT)
