Name[edit]
Why is this "Golf: U.S. Course" rather than "Golf: US Course"? English Mario Portal uses the latter, and it seems to match the Japanese name too. Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 06:20, January 21, 2025 (EST)
- Probably because of how it's written on the title screen. I'd prefer we nix the periods, myself. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 09:40, January 21, 2025 (EST)
Decide on the periods[edit]

This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit this section or its subsections. If you wish to discuss the article, please do so in a new section below the proposal. |
Remove the periods 6-0
Per the above section. While periods do appear in the game's title screen in-game, both the box art and the Mario Portal use the variation without the periods. Because of this, I think this page should be moved to Golf: US Course, and the current title is used as a redirect.

End the period[edit]
- Nelsonic (talk) Per proposal. Preferred option.
- Rykitu (talk) Per all.
- Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) - Yeah, it's not "supposed" to be read with the periods. Same reason the alternate version should be called "Special Course" rather than "Prize Card."
- Jdtendo (talk) Per proposal. It's also dotless in the logo used at the back of the instruction booklet.
- Hewer (talk) Makes sense. Golf: US Course is already a redirect, by the way.
- Kaptain Skurvy (talk) Makes sense to me

Split 7-0
I honestly don't think I need to say much. This proposal basically explains everything I could explain here. The comments were talking about starting a proposal for splitting this too, but nothing happened, so I just thought "ahh...I'll do it myself."

Support: Special Course[edit]
- Kaptain Skurvy: Special Course (talk) Per proposal.
- Rykitu: Prize Card (talk) "If I had a nickel every time Golf: US Course was the subject of a proposal, I would have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice, right?" (Also, I think the page should be called "Golf: Prize Card", per Doc von Shmeltwick's comment.)
- SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) Per all.
- Camwoodstock (talk) Unique version of the game with a unique distribution method. Makes sense, per proposal.
- Nelsonic (talk) I was actually gonna make a proposal about this myself as soon as my other ones end and are implemented. Per all.
- Platform (talk) Per proposal.
- Daita (talk) Per proposal, i guess.

Comments: Special Course[edit]
@Rykitu - "Prize Card" also refers to the JP competition ones, though, so this is more specific. Also, this fits more with the thematic naming of "Golf: [word] Course" (and we already prioritize "US Course" over the title screen's "U.S. Course" per the previous proposal) "Special Course" is what it says on the disk and the scorecard. (EDIT: the disk actually does have the words "prize card" included on it, I was wrong. Sorry about that! Still though, I have seen "Prize Card" used as a catch-all for the disk fax bonuses, I'm pretty sure in an official capacity, so I would prefer to do it this way for clarity. Not to mention avoiding confusion with "Golf: Professional Course" also being "G:PC.") Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 18:13, May 19, 2025 (EDT)
