Let me tell you what. The the ''Yoshi'' franchise began with a series of puzzle games, known as the "''Yoshi'' series", which consists of ''Yoshi'', ''Yoshi's Cookie'', and an expansion game based on ''Yoshi's Cookie'', with ''Yoshi's Safari'' and ''Tetris Attack'' being being related games in the series. Likewise, the''Yoshi'' franchise games ''Yoshi's Story'', ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World'', and ''Yoshi's Crafted World'' are all platformers which play similarly to ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', while ''Yoshi Topsy-Turvy'' is a platformer that features a similar story to ''Yoshi's Story''. Perhaps there's a possibility to choose the one of the following three options: | Let me tell you what.

#{{User|Arend}} A while ago, I had been thinking that the Yoshi platformers should've been considered as part of (or at least adjacent to) the ''Yoshi's Island'' series, because it's clear to me that nearly all of them are based on the original 1995 game and its two sequels; a stark contrast to the puzzle games (and the one on-rail shooter) that are all based on the core ''Super Mario'' games instead... except for ''Tetris Attack'', that is (which I believe we should count as a ''Yoshi's Island'' spinoff, too). | #{{User|Arend}} A while ago, I had been thinking that the Yoshi platformers should've been considered as part of (or at least adjacent to) the ''Yoshi's Island'' series, because it's clear to me that nearly all of them are based on the original 1995 game and its two sequels; a stark contrast to the puzzle games (and the one on-rail shooter) that are all based on the core ''Super Mario'' games instead... except for ''Tetris Attack'', that is (which I believe we should count as a ''Yoshi's Island'' spinoff, too). | ||

I think there needs to be an alteration to option 1, which I'd only supports if this means redefining the ''Yoshi'' puzzle games (except ''Tetris Attack'') and ''Yoshi's Safari'' as ''Super Mario'' games. Mario is still the playable protagonist of ''Yoshi'', and he wields the Super Scope in ''Yoshi's Safari'', the core part of gameplay. Despite Yoshi's name in the game titles, just because he's used as a mascot doesn't necessitate the inclusion into his franchise. And it wasn't until "Yoshi's Island" when the Yoshis really began to star in their own game. Even then, however, "''Super Mario''" is in both the English and Japanese titles, and it's a sidescrolling platformer, so it could potentially be a ''Super Mario'' game altogether, but I digress. I checked the use of the "yoshi.nintendo.com" domain through Wayback Machine, and it was only really used for the ''Yoshi'' platforming games, like ''Topsy-Turvy'', ''Yoshi's New Island'', or ''Yoshi's Crafted World'' alike. Anyway, considering the aforementioned puzzle games and ''Yoshi's Safari'' as ''Super Mario'' games seems like a good starting point before getting to the [[Talk:Super_Mario_(series)#Is_Super_Mario_World_2:_Yoshi.27s_Island_also_a_Super_Mario_series_game.3F|separate discussion]] as to whether ''Yoshi's Island'' is basically a game of the ''Super Mario'' series starring Yoshis.

To expand upon my vote, here's what I believe should move to the ''Yoshi's Island'' series as spinoffs or adjacent titles, and what should stay on the ''Yoshi'' franchise page as miscellaneous titles: | To expand upon my vote, here's what I believe should move to the ''Yoshi's Island'' series as spinoffs or adjacent titles, and what should stay on the ''Yoshi'' franchise page as miscellaneous titles: |
