Talk:Boomerang Bro

Mario & Luigi series formatting

Due to the short amount of information in the Paper Mario series section, the Mario & Luigi section is formatted badly. Simply leaving it as-is results in a very crowded look, but [br clear=all] results in too much white space. To get around this, I added 18 empty lines between the two sections, giving the page a clean formatting-look when published. I was wondering if this was okay, since it's currently the only way to make it look so good. If it is, I'd like this to serve as a warning so people won't remove the lines thinking it's a mistake.

Separate M&L:SS Boomerang Bro.?

They look nothing like normal Hammer Bros. (tall and skinny, with sunglasses, no boots, brown boomerangs, and purple domed helmets with sprout growing out of the top...), so I think we should give them their own article to reflect the fact that they're a different species. This is going by the same logic that split Dark Koopatrol (Super Paper Mario) from Dark Koopatrol, which led to similar splits of Dark Paratroopa and Dark Koopa. I'll make a Talk Page Proposal if I have to, but if we can come to an informal consensus, I think it'd be faster (the aforementioned Koopatrol pages were split without need of a TPP). - Walkazo 00:28, 19 February 2011 (EST)

I think they are like Troopeas; they are Bean Bean versions of them except their name remains unchanged from the normal species. When I first encountered them, I didn't think that they are a Boomerang Bro. Ray Trace^(T|C)

Since no one opposed, I split them. - Walkazo 13:53, 11 March 2011 (EST)

I feel this is necessary since the Japanese name for both simply calls them Boomerang Bro. also they share the same attack and it doesnt make sense to have them as two seperate species of the same name since we don't have anything else like that

Merge

1. Iggykoopa (talk) per my proposal
2. Reddragon19k (talk) Per him! Yay!

Keep Split

1. Walkazo (talk) - Per what I said in the section right above this one. ("They look nothing like normal Hammer Bros. [...] so I think we should give them their own article to reflect the fact that they're a different species. This is going by the same logic that split Dark Koopatrol (Super Paper Mario) from Dark Koopatrol, which led to similar splits of Dark Paratroopa and Dark Koopa.")

Comments

sorry if i did anything wrong im kinda new at this Iggykoopa (talk)

But those actually are different species since they have different names and please tell me is there an official source that says they are a different species and if not you must assume that they are the same sharing the same name and attacks Iggykoopa (talk)

They have different names in the French and Italian versions. Besides, just because something has the same attack doesn't automatically make it the same thing if it looks completely different: that's when you've gotta use common sense, rather than blindly going by names alone. If it quacks like a duck but looks like a peacock, odds are, it's not really a duck, and assuming it is one despite the obvious differences would be a bad idea. - Walkazo (talk)

Really so the official Japanese name which is mentioned as the proof in of point in a number of other proposals doesn't matter here is what your saying if the Japanese didn't intend for it to be the same species why would they give it the same name also your logic means nothing here since they share the same name in japan while the dark koopatrol has a totally different name in japan that means Shadow Koopatrol so tell me if it has the same name and has the same attacks why would it be a different species Iggykoopa (talk)
