== Merge [[Super Mushroom (healing item)]] and the old ''Mario Party'' [[Golden Mushroom]]? == | == Merge [[Super Mushroom (healing item)]] and the old ''Mario Party'' [[Golden Mushroom]]? == | ||

So something I honestly must ask is why the [[Super Mushroom (healing item)|Super Mushroom]]s from the RPG games are a separate page from this, given they have the same name in both English and Japanese. It's not like we consider those games' basic Mushrooms to be the same as these instead; rather, we treat them as the same as [[Mushroom|the item from ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', the ''Mario Kart'' games, and a whole bunch of other things]]. The different purpose isn't solid reasoning either, not only due to the aforementioned Mushroom page, but Super Mushroom's contemporary, [[Fire Flower]], also has a vastly different function between games across genres, particularly the RPGs. As for the color in the PM games, so? It was orange with red spots originally, and again bringing up Fire Flower, it didn't get its current design until the Bro Flower in ''Partners in Time'', not being used for anything specifically called "Fire Flower" until ''New Super Mario Bros.'' in '''''2006''''', 21 years after its initial introduction. | So something I honestly must ask is why the [[Super Mushroom (healing item)|Super Mushroom]]s from the RPG games are a separate page from this, given they have the same name in both English and Japanese.

Even after the proposals, the above-mentioned Gold Mushrooms from Rakin' 'em In are still an issue. Where do we put them? {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 20:04, August 12, 2021 (EDT) | Even after the proposals, the above-mentioned Gold Mushrooms from Rakin' 'em In are still an issue.

:Unless conflicting evidence arrives, I'd say have them on Super Mushroom. I would have added them when I merged last night, but I forgot the minigame's name.

::Update: turns out it's its own thing too, きんいろキノコ ''Kin'iro Kinoko'', as seen [https://youtu.be/MQen9uw4Vs0?t=2627 here]. This means it is separate from the usable Super Mushrooms in the same game. I would also separate it from Gold Mushroom myself since that's been so homogenous across its appearances, so I'd perhaps split it too, though finding an identifier could be troublesome. The only real alternative I could think of would be to move the "Golden Mushroom (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)" simply to "Golden Mushroom" (moving the current to "Golden Mushroom (disambiguation)") and merge it there | ::Update: turns out it's its own thing too, きんいろキノコ ''Kin'iro Kinoko'', as seen [https://youtu.be/MQen9uw4Vs0?t=2627 here].

As a side note, I'd keep the ones from MP4's [[Bowser Wrestling]] on Super Mushroom due to their functionality.

See above. This is clearly the same subject in a different genre, which occasional color variation to differentiate it from the occasional "basic" mushroom. And considering Super Mushroom wasn't even red until ''Super Mario World'', I don't think that's that big of a deal. I have seen some support for merging "normal" Mushroom here instead, though that comes off as arbitrarily picking-and-choosing in defiance of official terminology, which is a slippery slope I want to avoid. | See above.

@Oppose Super Mushroom also restores health in ''Yoshi's Safari'' and ''Luigi's Mansion'' (3DS) but is considered the "usual" type.
