Editing Talk:Tour Tokyo Blur

=Naming convention for these "MK8 version" articles=
So it occurs to me that we never really talked about what these articles would be named to distinguish them from their original version. We've just kind of landed on the "Tour" prefix because that was what the first article got called and then this one got changed to match it. So I think it would be best to hash this out properly.

To get to my point: I would argue that the "Tour" prefix, while technically correct, does not aid users in understanding what the article is about. If you present someone with the articles [[Tokyo Blur]] and {{classic-link|Tour|Tokyo Blur}}, they will not know until clicking the article that the latter is for the MK8 version of the course. In fact, I'd venture they'd assume one redirected to the other. Even if you tell them that one is for the Tour version and one is for the MK8 version, it's unclear which is which. And in the end, the version with "Tour" in the title is the one that is ''not'' in Tour, running counter to all similar prefixes on other Mario Kart tracks that are the console the track is originally from.

Again, the "Tour" prefix is technically correct, but rather than a disambiguator, it strikes me as a loophole we are using to "not ''need'' a disambiguator". However, I don't think doing it that way is of any benefit to the end user.

I would personally go with the name format of '''Tokyo Blur (''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'')''', as that makes it clear what game the article's subject is in, which I do not believe the current title does. [[User:Ahemtoday|Ahemtoday]] ([[User talk:Ahemtoday|talk]]) 15:40, May 13, 2022 (EDT)

-:While I support your reasoning, it actually overshadows a rather contentious issue (and the current title is bafflingly bound by [[MarioWiki:Naming#Naming an article|policy]] anyways), so I think [[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ought to have a look at your argument. {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 23:48, May 13, 2022 (EDT)
-:someone will see the "tour" prefix and understand that it is the retro track version, as only retro courses have such prefixes. courses without prefixes are typically nitro courses. so present someone with Tokyo Blur and <small>Tour</small> Tokyo Blur and they'll probably assume that the one with the classic course prefix is... well... the classic course.
