I'm not so sure about the identifier. The summary for the move says it's for consistency with titles like [[100m (Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS)]], but the only reason that article uses that identifier is because there's [[100m (Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games for Wii U)|another event with the exact same name in a game with the exact same name on a different console]], a very specific situation in [[MarioWiki:Naming]]. That's not the case here because this is the only subject called a Scrapbook from a game called Super Mario RPG. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 20:44, November 3, 2023 (EDT)

::Agreed with Super Game Gear. The identifier in "Scrapbook (Super Mario RPG)" could refer to both the original version of the game and its remake; same with "[[Pole Vault (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games)]]", for that matter, where it's not stated that the subject is in fact exclusive to the game's 3DS version. It's like if [[Patch (character)]] was titled "Patch (sentient)"; sure, there may not be any other subjects in the Mario franchise that are named "Patch" and are sentient creatures as opposed to objects, but the "character" identifier helps narrow down the subject's nature to its utmost degree that can be considered helpful. Identifiers should strive to be specific and MarioWiki:Naming should be amended in this regard. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 09:40, November 4, 2023 (EDT)

I'm not so sure about the identifier. The summary for the move says it's for consistency with titles like 100m (Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS), but the only reason that article uses that identifier is because there's another event with the exact same name in a game with the exact same name on a different console, a very specific situation in MarioWiki:Naming. That's not the case here because this is the only subject called a Scrapbook from a game called Super Mario RPG. --Waluigi's head icon in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Too Bad!

I'm personally in support of keeping the console name in the identifier. As for the Mario & Sonic events, even if one is exclusive to a certain version, I'd retain console name in title, but I digress. Super Game Gear (talk) 20:47, November 3, 2023 (EDT)
Agreed with Super Game Gear. The identifier in "Scrapbook (Super Mario RPG)" could refer to both the original version of the game and its remake; same with "Pole Vault (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games)", for that matter, where it's not stated that the subject is in fact exclusive to the game's 3DS version. It's like if Patch (character) was titled "Patch (sentient)"; sure, there may not be any other subjects in the Mario franchise that are named "Patch" and are sentient creatures as opposed to objects, but the "character" identifier helps narrow down the subject's nature to its utmost degree that can be considered helpful to readers. Identifiers should strive to be specific and MarioWiki:Naming should be amended in this regard. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 09:40, November 4, 2023 (EDT)
