Talk:Bean

Article?

The article says that the yellow bean are Hee Beans, but I think it's called Tee Beans? What do you think?Knife (talk) 15:38, 11 August 2007 (EDT)

Hee. Official name. Max2 (talk)

Map

I think we should have a map for every area you can find beans underground. Mainly for P.I.T. & B.I.S. Because they have maps (I dont think S.S. has maps) so we just add an X anywhere a bean is. Nihaho13 18:00, 4 October 2009 (EDT)

Nope, leave that to walkthroughs.--Knife (talk) 19:05, 4 October 2009 (EDT)

Split

With the recent proposal in mind to split other RPG items, would anyone complain if I split the Beans into individual articles? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

The Superstar Saga and Dream Team ones as far as I know definitely need a split. Partners in Time can stay here. Not sure about the rest, though! It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:21, 18 January 2016 (EST)

If memory serves, Pit's Beans are referred to as just "Beans", so it'd make sense to leave them here. However, I'm willing to split the Bowser's Inside Story Beans: even if they share a sprite, they have different properties, are found in different locations, and have different names, so I'm all for giving them different articles. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

How to split this page

I know there was already a proposal to do this a while back, and I wholly support this. However, it has come to my attention that there is some information that would potentially not belong in any one split article (such as the beanhole lists), so I think there should be a gentleperson's agreement on this: either we split M&L:PiT Bean into its own article while keeping the base article (option 1), remove nearly all information barring M&L:PiT (option 2), or do nothing (option 3). I'm fine with any option, though a tad uneasy towards the first and third.

All other necessary splitting from this page won't directly be affected by this proposal.

Option 2

1. Toadette the Achiever (talk) My preferred option.

Option 3

1. Waluigi Time (talk) I don't think the Partners in Time beans are different enough to be split from the other Mario & Luigi ones.
2. TheDarkStar (talk) - The PiT beans are beans you dig up. The only difference between the PiT beans and the regular beans is that one is used for currency (in a shop run by Fawful, a Beanish person, implying that these are the same beans, just used in a different context), and one is used for stat boosts. Either way, this proposal really needs a rewrite.
3. YoshiFlutterJump (talk) They're still beans, they're collected in the exact same way, and a clear intended reference. They're just not different enough to warrant a split...unless we split all the other kinds of beans from other games, which could be a viable option if a tad unnecessary. I think it's just better if the page remains as-is.

Comments

Shouldn't there be an option to do nothing, in line with most multi-option proposals? TheDarkStar 15:32, September 25, 2019 (EDT)

Yes, there should, especially since I don't even understand what the purpose of this proposal is. The other proposal already passed; those specific kinds of beans should have been split a long time ago. There is no reason whatsoever to split the PiT beans, since there are no specific kinds in that game and a simple change in purpose (buying badges instead of increasing stats) does not warrant a split. 15:34, September 25, 2019 (EDT)

Option added. ^(T|C) 16:57, September 25, 2019 (EDT)

I'm still confused as to what this proposal is trying to accomplish. I've already explained why Option 1 is a bad idea, and Option 2's wording is extremely vague. "Remove nearly all information barring M&L:PiT?" What information exactly? Are you just trying to say "split the different kinds of beans?" Because the old proposal already called for that. Also, what do the beanhole lists have to do with this? They're separate articles, they shouldn't affect this in any way. This proposal desperately needs a rewrite.

Here's what the options should be:

• Split the beans, including the generic PiT beans.
• Split the beans, but leave the generic PiT beans on this article.
• Leave the article as is (don't split anything).

18:39, September 25, 2019 (EDT)

Like I said, it's already been decided that the beans in every game except PiT get articles. That's a decision I'm not going to touch here. ^(T|C) 21:47, September 25, 2019 (EDT)

If we split the Partners in Time beans, it would be consistent to split all the other variations (Woo Bean, Hoo Bean, Heart Bean, Stache Bean, etc.). I'm not really sure that would be necessary, but we'll see. Even then, the beans from PiT are even less distinct than the Woo Beans and Heart Beans. They are just called "beans", are yellow instead of green, and are used as currency. --DeepFriedCabbage 18:05, September 25, 2019 (EDT)
