Merge with Minister?

If the two characters are the same name in Japan, and even in the American games they both look very similar (moustache, green spots, etc.) and play similar roles in the goverment, should we merge the two pages into one? Stumpers! 09:40, 14 August 2008 (EDT)

Previously, we've had this problem with Kamek. NoA named him Kamek instead of following NoJ and naming him after his species. We wondered: should Kamek be merged with Magikoopa because his Japanese name is the same? We decided not to based on Yoshi, Birdo, and Toad, major players who are named after their species. This is a little different though. Still, we didn't create separate articles for Princess Toadstool and Princess Peach. Stumpers! 14:48, 14 August 2008 (EDT)
