Aren't these the same as the plants in Mario vs Donkey Kong? Are they a type of Venus Fire Trap?--Platform 21:50, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

Merge with Fire Piranha Plant

Template:SettledTPP CANCELLED BY PROPOSER

It seems that a fair amount of articles on this wiki whose titles are apparently derived from foreign sources are named without proper official citations. In a small effort to minimize unsourced / conjectural pages, I propose merging this enemy with Fire Piranha Plant. Mario vs. Donkey Kong directly took the basic gameplay, concepts, and certain obstacles from the Game Boy Donkey Kong. The Fire Piranha Plant of Mario vs. Donkey Kong is almost identical to the "Dolly" flower, spitting the same projectiles at a similar rhythm. From these two related games alone, there isn't much to tell them apart except for their bud designs.

Proposer: LinkTheLefty (talk)
Deadline: April 25, 2015 (23:59 GMT)

Merge

  1. LinkTheLefty (talk) Due to both the identical behavior and uncertain naming.

Don't merge

Comments

If you're uncertain about the name, why not ask the person who inserted the name in the first place? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

I would, but that user doesn't seem particularly active since their last contribution was almost a year ago, and only came back for a day after about two years prior. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:18, 11 April 2015 (EDT)
Cobold isn't the one who gave the article its current name; he only created it. Fizzle, a user who is still active, made the change. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
You're absolutely right, good for getting on top of that. Fizzle was also the person who supported the Daijiten a short while ago, but as we know, its overreliance has had disagreement. For now, I'll put this proposal on pause until Fizzle responds with clarification. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:49, 11 April 2015 (EDT)
