Category talk:Dinosaur Land

There's a lot of stuff here from Yoshi's Story. These shouldn't be in this category, because the Yoshi's Island in SMW and the Yoshi's Island from the Yoshi series are probably different Yoshi's Islands. And even if they aren't, Dinosuar Land was featured in SMW, so it should only be places in SMW in this category.

Dissection of this category[edit]

I noticed this category appeared to be in a less-than-healthy state, so I'm going to give it a dissection just like Camwoodstock did for the lookalike categories and Category:Thieves — though, as a massive majority of the articles here fall into a single group, this shouldn't take nearly as long.

Feel free to contest any entries in this dissection. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 21:05, January 18, 2024 (EST)

This is my take on this:

  • All levels and Worlds from Super Mario World - Remove. Yeah, thought MAYBE there were some cases that could be kept, but no.
  • The Donut Plains and Choco Island courses - Keep. Nothing much to say about this.
  • Everything else but the last 2 I agree on.
  • Super Mario World Star World - Keep They're landmarks, yes.
  • Switch Palace - Keep if split, otherwise agree. If the Switch Palaces from Super Mario World get split from the Cap Switch courses, then I would be fine with keeping them.

That's my take, if you want to have a friendly debate about my take, or your take, I will be fine with it. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 11:29, January 26, 2024 (CST)

Heh, no need for a debate — your take is basically the same as mine! I'll clean up this category with our feedback as soon as I can. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 12:51, January 26, 2024 (EST)
Heh, I was talking about the differences between our takes when I was talking about having a debate. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 11:56, January 26, 2024 (CST)
Adding my two cents, I would remove Switch Palace too. It's just referring to the general concept (akin to Ghost House), and the levels themselves have their own articles so they'll be kept under the SMW levels category. --Waluigi's head icon in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Well, I need to add MY 3 cents to this. The levels themselves can go, but the main Switch Palace article COULD stay, but only if the Switch Palace and Cap Switch concepts are split, otherwise it can probably go. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 12:07, January 26, 2024 (CST)

So, the cleanup is finished, but why were Fall and Star Road (Super Mario World) removed when SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) and I both agreed on including them? Is it because they're not directly locations? SolemnStormcloud (talk) 13:54, January 26, 2024 (EST)

I fixed that. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 07:48, January 29, 2024 (CST)
Thanks for that! SolemnStormcloud (talk) 08:49, January 29, 2024 (EST)
You're welcome. I see you made a few changes. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 07:54, January 29, 2024 (CST)
Yep, non-media categories go first. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 08:56, January 29, 2024 (EST)
