Do We Need This?

I have no idea why we have this article, or the ACNL one either. Is it necessary? BabyLuigi64

It's a DLC pack. I know it's something that's like, a new concept to the Mario series, but DLC merits its own article. Like New Super Luigi U does. Paper Jorge (Talk·Contribs)

NSLU may count as DLC, but it was still released as a disk independent of NSMBU. It's more like a separate game as opposed to these DLC packs. BabyLuigi64

The MK8 page is pretty lenghty, BTW. This article (along with the ther) helps to find informations about the DLCs as a whole instead of being scattred around thd article. I also reccomend to do "List of Mario Golf: World Tour DLCs", as, even if the infos ard not scattred much like MK8 (which DLCs comprise vehicles, characters and tracks), it is useful to find just them instead of looking for all the article, which sometimes is useful. I created them for this scope, and this is also the only place denoting the Blue Falcon. Got it? But if you come with greater opposes, I will understand. TSUNAMI

Yes but I don't think length will be a problem in the article. Since the packs are so similar, I don't see a problem in keeping the content of the DLC in one section. Also, I don't see what you're getting at with the Blue Falcon thing. Lengthy articles are exactly why there is a table of contents there at the beginning. Readers can find where it is there, and they won't have to scroll all the way down. I'll propose this later to see what others think, anyway. BabyLuigi64

Note: This also applies to Animal Crossing: New Leaf X Mario Kart 8 as well.

I'm a little unclear on why we have these pages. I don't know what policies we have on DLC (if any at all) but these are small add-ons to the game. Now I know we have New Super Luigi U, but it's really it's own game, but it doesn't affect New Super Mario Bros. U, plus it comes in a disk, which proves my point. These are simply DLC packs, or add-ons, to the regular game. So I'm proposing to merge both DLC articles to the main MK8 page.

Merge

1. 'Shroom64 (talk) Per my proposal.

Leave Separated

1. Paper Jorge (talk) The MarioWiki should adopt a policy wherein DLC packs merit their own article.
2. Walkazo (talk) - People might try to search for information about the DLC in particular. Plus, having DLC pages will keep the main articles from potentially getting cluttered if lots of packages end up being released. And looking at the two upcoming DLC examples, it looks like there's enough info to make decent-sized standalone pages for the content.
3. 1337star (talk) Per Paper Jorge. This is an issue that should be definitively decided for this and future DLC, not just as a TPP for these two articles (or at least I assume that's his reasoning).

@Paper Jorge: Why do you think this though? BabyLuigi64
