Is this page worth keeping?

I personally don't see any point in having a Mario Wiki page about the MS-DOS, and as was mentioned in the Discord earlier, it validates articles such as a Windows article to be created. rollerC (talk) 01:45, 30 July 2018 (EDT)

It's better as just a simple category. The current article is awfully detailed and off-topic. It seems like we don't have a category for this yet. Also, categorizing this as a Video Game system and putting it in the "Video Game Consoles and Add-ons" navigational template seems to be a bit of a stretch. It's me, Mario!

Agreed. I do like the idea of having it as a category instead. rollerC (talk) 17:54, 30 July 2018 (EDT)

Article to category proposal

Turn this article into a category

Essentially, the Games section would become: "List of Mario games released for the MS-DOS". Similarly, the Wiki could hold categories for Mario games released on Windows, etc.

Support

1. rollerC (talk) As discussed before in both the Discord and the above talk section, this article is incredibly off-topic to the subject of Mario, and the only relevant information is the list of Mario games released for the MS-DOS. Bazooka Mario (talk) makes a good point that the information in the article would be much better served in a category page, rather than include the unnecessary clutter that is the information on the MS-DOS, which most users visiting the website are probably not looking for anyway.

After this proposal is complete, I'll remove the unresolved conflict box. rollerC (talk) 18:59, 30 July 2018 (EDT)
