Talk:Music references

From the Super Mario Wiki

Is it just me, or does "Musical Sightings" sound weird? :| — Stooben Rooben 00:19, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Srsly. Super-Yoshi^{Talk? C???}

Would anybody object if I moved this to "Musical References"? — Stooben Rooben 00:23, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

I think people listens to music instead of seeing it (Unless if it was a music video.) (I don't mind.) :P Grapes

Yeah, but it fits quite well with all the other Sightings pages. Time Questions 08:59, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Then maybe it's the sightings that have to change. "Sightings" makes it sound like Mario is Bigfoot or something. ;) Maybe it should all be changed to "References." So, we'd have Video Game References, Music References, etc. Stumpers! 11:25, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Good point. Should we make this a proposal? — Stooben Rooben 11:44, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

I'd agree with it too. Time Questions 11:59, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Consider it done. Stumpers! 12:17, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Does Super Mario RPG Rawest Forest Song count as a Music References? Grapes

Is that a fan creation or was it featured on a soundtrack? Stumpers! 13:49, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

Well it a song on You Tube. So I guess it fan made. :O Grapes

No. It was first on Newgrounds and stuff, then put on YT :P. It's fan made. Super-Yoshi^{Talk? C???}

Everything have been moved from sighting to References per proposal. n_n Grapes

[edit] About Nico Nico Douga Medley...

There's more than one. ChibiRaikou simply posted it on YouTube. The correct name is "Kumikyoku". There's also another one with Mario in it, "Monogatari".

Plus, a japanese musical artist named Hyadain made this:

I can't believe why you haven't done this yet.

AND WHY THE HELL HAVEN'T YOU MENTIONED RAWEST FOREST YET?! --A.R.K. 11:03, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Its fan made. Grapes 13:00, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Yes, but still, if you made a song about Mario, it means you're probably a fan of him. That would make ALL of these fan-made. Or do you mean on the internet?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by A.R.K. (talk).

If I've got my rules straight, we don't list references in nonprofessional media-- Although songs like "Game Gonna Cost a Fee" and even "What It's Like in Japan" are clearly made by Mario fans/people with some interest or knowledge in the Mario series, they're distinguished from the run-of-the-mill internet tribute in that they're professional, commercial works. On that note, I think "Nico Nico Douga Melody" and "The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny" should be removed as nonprofessional. YellowYoshi398
