I tried to move this page to {{fake link|Dr. Mario (character)}}, but it was reverted due to the above proposal. So I'm making a counterproposal. To start, the above proposal's reasoning is flawed. Dr. Mario is not a major character on par with regular Mario, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong. He is a mere alter-ego most comparable to Paper Mario, who is also an alter-ego (of sorts) with a game and series named after him. Paper Mario only has an article due to his unique role in Paper Jam, in the same way that Dr. Mario has an article only because of his unique role in Smash. And Paper Mario still doesn't hold identifier priority like Dr. Mario does, and that is a problematic inconsistency that needs to be solved. There really isn't much to it. The other doctors also got their pages deleted due to having no unique roles, and Dr. Mario only holds a page due to being a separate fighter in Smash, so it makes little sense to prioritize him over the game following that as well. The above proposal was made five years ago, with no precedent; now, with the existence of [[Paper Mario (character)]] and the deletion of the other doctors, moving this page to an identifier seems like the most reasonable thing to do. | I tried to move this page to {{fake link|Dr. Mario (character)}}, but it was reverted due to the above proposal.
