From what I can tell, the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZXxOb6S6s0 video reference] was [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Yoshi%27s_Island_(series)&diff=2318218&oldid=2318188 originally] used as a source to say that the so-called "''Adventures of Yoshi''" series is "often put together with" the ''Yoshi's Island'' series; however, as anyone can see, it is clearly not the actual source for the new "''Adventures of Yoshi''" phrase. What is the actual source for the name?

:I didn't create the page, although I did some edits using this term before. The source actually says ''his adventures'' on the video description, and the text talks about ''Yoshi's first adventure'' when talking about Yoshi's Island and also calls ''Yoshi's New Island'' ''a colourful adventure'' and ''Yoshi's Woolly World'' is callled ''an amazing adventure''. To be fully strict, we can use the name ''Yoshi's Adventures'' using as source the description of the video(''his'' is referred to Yoshi).--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 18:42, 22 October 2017 (EDT) | :I didn't create the page, although I did some edits using this term before.

I propose that the Yoshi platform series article should be merged into the Yoshi's Island series article because Yoshi Topsy-Turvy, Yoshi's Woolly World, and the upcoming Yoshi game for the Nintendo Switch are considered spin-offs of the Yoshi's Island games. According to Kyle Hilliard from my December 2015 issue on Game Informer, for example: | I propose that the Yoshi platform series article should be merged into the Yoshi's Island series article because Yoshi Topsy-Turvy, Yoshi's Woolly World, and the upcoming Yoshi game for the Nintendo Switch are considered spin-offs of the Yoshi's Island games.

While I can see the point of putting the Yoshi's Island series in the page of the Yoshi platform games, the reasons you are giving are in my opinion flawed: the Yoshi's Island series {{ | While I can see the point of putting the Yoshi's Island series in the page of the Yoshi platform games, the reasons you are giving are in my opinion flawed: the Yoshi's Island series {{media link|SMP Yoshi's Island opt.png|was shown in an official book}}, the ''{{media link|SMP page 98 opt.png|Super Mario Pia}}'', which also described the most relevant gameplay aspects of said series, while [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZXxOb6S6s0 the series of Yoshi platform games was shown in a video made by Nintendo]. They don't come from journalism categorization like in the case of the Game Informer article. I would rather find other reasons like "The Yoshi's Island series is official, but it doesn't need its own page, it can be perfectly described in full in a subsection of the page about the Yoshi platform games".--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 14:51, 6 March 2018 (EST) | ||
