Merge with Fire Piranha Plant

Proposal.svg This talk page section contains an unresolved talk page proposal. Please try to help and resolve the issue by voting or leaving a comment.

Current time: Wednesday, December 25, 2024, 11:56 GMT

Inspired by the ongoing Johnson talk page proposal, I'm making a proposal to merge Socially Awkward Piranha Plant into the Fire Piranha Plant article (Other appearances section?). The reasoning is quite simple, really, it's just a joke image posted by Nintendo on their social platforms several years ago, and the three-sentence long article pretty much says all that needs to be said about it. "Socially Awkward Piranha Plant" by technicality is not a real character, having no character depth, no personality. The use of a stock artwork further proves that Socially Awkward Piranha Plant has no defining traits that can be differentiated from Fire Piranha Plant. letting Socially Awkward Piranha Plant have its own page may inspire someone to read too much into the caption of it spitting a fireball at everyone, as if it were an event that happened in the world of Super Mario. That event never happened, and the image was only ever meant to be a joke.

Comments

For the record, this is the edit summary when the article was created: (officially named character: check. is given some semblance of a story: check.) PrincessPeachFan (talk) 20:06, December 31, 2023 (EST)

That further adds to the point of why the page should be redirected, if the user basically created it as a joke. Super Game Gear (talk) 20:27, December 31, 2023 (EST)
Not sure where you got this conviction that I made this page "as a joke". Per an extrapolation of the current "minor NPC" policy, this decidedly minor character deserves a page because it has a unique name and is given a little bit of context. I don't care what you do with this page either way but I'd sure appreciate you not assume bad faith in my contributions, tyvm. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 21:37, December 31, 2023 (EST)

...While I do truly think it's outrageous that this page can stand on its own, I'm once again being impulsive and overly rude, apologies, again. (was going to change the wording after hyped but it fucking totally turned into RIP) But meanwhile, it would be acceptable if a page could be dedicated to recording image macro memes by Nintendo's social account I think.

Ah, maybe a article that is titled "List of official macros made by Nintendo"? Sure it can! And then it would list every macro made by Nintendo social media accounts from A to Z. Don't click Penny PnnyCrygr User contributions 04:12, January 1, 2024 (EST)
While we aren't opposed to a blanket page about these images, we feel like that'd be better suited for a gallery, honestly--a lot of those are very visual-reliant and some don't even have concretely defined characters, such as the "characters" those from those "Create-a-quote" fill in the blank images they made from around 2011-2014; how do you even make a section for a character whose character is implied and for the reader to decide for themselves? (That's rhetorical, don't answer it, you'll only hurt yourself.) We're rather doubtful there's continuity between the blue shell in the "Create-a-quote" versus the one from a German Facebook post, even if there is technically a language barrier. (...oh! since we realize maybe not everyone is as familiar with what we're talking about here--um, just go here and CTRL+F "Create-a-quote" and it's that image and the ones right after it. we know there's at least a few other create-a-quotes out there, but finding those on short notice is difficult. apologies! ;P) ~Camwoodstock (talk) 14:50, January 3, 2024 (EST)
All official "create-a-caption" pics that I'm aware of on the wiki are collected over at Category:Image macros, if that helps. Also, I wanna say your vote in this proposal paints Socially Awkward Piranha Plant as a cousin of Bad Luck Brian--but his shoes have already been filled by another Mario enemy! -- KOOPA CON CARNE 15:59, January 3, 2024 (EST)
Well, if this was created because of the "minor NPC" policy... *grimaces* I got rid of my vote because I just realized that it wasn't created as a joke and has a name and some backstory and everything. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 12:47, January 1, 2024 (EST)

Could we include an option to merge to Piranha Plant instead? It is based on a Fire Piranha Plant render, but I don't think the intent is that it's a Fire Piranha Plant. TheUndescribableGhost (talk) 11:47, January 3, 2024 (EST)

Actually, it's normal Piranha Plant's Mario Party DS render. And normal ones have spit fire on rare occasions too. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 14:54, January 3, 2024 (EST)
Rare occasions? I've never seen a Piranha Plant at a summer party so you can be on to something. 😜 Mario (Santa)'s map icon from Mario Kart Tour Mario-HOHO! (Talk / Stalk) 20:26, January 3, 2024 (EST)
