I've been thinking, and I feel that for these identical character/species galleries that have a huge amount of overlap and ambiguous cases, it'd be more efficient (and useful for showing the shared design's evolution) to just have a shared gallery that links to and from both pages. We could call this one "Gallery:Magikoopa and Kamek" and have all pictures pooled here.

::I'm going to have to oppose. I see the logic of merging them since it's usually the same design, but if we do it, that's a huge loss of information for which images are specifically used to represent Kamek himself vs. generic Magikoopas (the alternative then is digging around individual game galleries to see which one it was used for, but we shouldn't be sending readers to dozens of pages for that). That's much more important to me than being efficient. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 15:31, May 27, 2022 (EDT)
