I think that this character being named "Drumstick (character)" is kind of stupid. The disambiguation page is pointless. The only things on there are him, the Mario's Time Machine item and some random items that have words infront of them distinguish them from just the word drumstick. We could just include the Mario's Time Machine item as a notice using the "about" template like almost every page ever. But the other items from the Mario & Luigi games being there is pointless. That's like if we had a notice with on Sonic's page with the other page being Sonic Cymbals. Drumstick, the character is way more known than the random item from Mario's Time Machine, therefore his page should be moved to Drumstick.

Move to Drumstick

1. Starluxe (talk) Per all

Leave as is

1. Ray Trace (talk) I'd have to disagree because editors can search generic "Drumstick" in regards to the Bowser's Inside Story items, despite all drumsticks having adjective identifies that separate them. I also disagree with the Sonic and Sonic Cymbals analogy, as in the latter case, "Sonic" is clearly an adjective.
2. Super Mario RPG (talk) Per Ray Trace.
3. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) - Ray took the words right out of my mouth. This is especially relevant considering the other "leveled" restoration items in the game usually start with an adjectiveless version, like the Mushrooms, Syrup Jars, and Star Candies.
4. FanOfYoshi (talk) Per all.

Comments

Opposition: would "Drumstick" be better as a general item article, or would you still rather keep it as a disambig? LinkTheLefty (talk) 15:54, August 4, 2024 (EDT)

I think the disambig works fine for what it sets out to do. Ray Trace^(T|C) 21:24, August 4, 2024 (EDT)

@Starluxe "Per all"? But you're the first person to have voted on your own proposal? -- FanOfYoshi 04:18, August 5, 2024 (EDT)

Uh, yeah, perring all other votes for a particular option sounds really weird when you're the first to vote for said option. When you're the first to vote a support on your own proposal, I suggest using the term "Per proposal" instead. rend (talk) (edits) 05:30, August 5, 2024 (EDT)

Tbh vote reasons barely matter and I don't think we even need a rule requiring a reason, because a vote is a vote with the same power regardless if it has one word or one hundred words. Ray Trace^(T|C) 16:37, August 5, 2024 (EDT)

You can't reason with someone who gives no reasoning, though. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:44, August 5, 2024 (EDT)
