This article is messy. While ostensibly about the Yoshi color, it doesn't know if it really wants to be about the character or the species, which have enough overlap as it is. A third article about practically the same subject is unnecessary and infringes [[MarioWiki:Once and only once|once and only once]]. This proposal will turn Green Yoshi into a redirect for either Yoshi or Yoshi (species). If it passes, I also suggest deleting its gallery, as much of it is already used in the character or species galleries, or both. There will probably be a follow-up proposal to determine what to do with the other Yoshi colors, which are merely an aesthetic difference in the vast majority of appearances. | This article is messy.

#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Second choice, as i don't want the rest of the colored Yoshis be merged to Yoshi (species). The rest REALLY deserves their own article. | #{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Second choice, as i don't want the rest of the colored Yoshis be merged to Yoshi (species).

#{{User|Yoshi the SSM}} After a bit of thinking, I decided on this: if I was wanting to search for Green Yoshi, I would want to be taken to a page with Yoshis of the color green. And since the character Yoshi is green, I wouldn't mind this redirecting to him. | #{{User|Yoshi the SSM}} After a bit of thinking, I decided on this: if I was wanting to search for Green Yoshi, I would want to be taken to a page with Yoshis of the color green.

#{{User|Toadette the Achiever}} Ehh, while I ''do'' wish we were able to deal with every colored Yoshi article in one fell swoop, this page in particular duplicates the [[Yoshi (species)]] page, and should probably be merged there instead of the base [[Yoshi]] page. | #{{User|Toadette the Achiever}} Ehh, while I ''do'' wish we were able to deal with every colored Yoshi article in one fell swoop, this page in particular duplicates the [[Yoshi (species)]] page, and should probably be merged there instead of the base [[Yoshi]] page. | ||
#{{User|Baby Luigi}} Per Waluigi Time. None of the Yoshi colors are great standalone pages and any info they may have can easily be organized in their species page. | #{{User|Baby Luigi}} Per Waluigi Time.

:Also, the rest of the colored Yoshis aren't factored in this proposal, and if I do make a proposal about them, I'll include an option to leave the basic three from ''Super Mario World'' alone.

::I'd argue for a merge for those three too, actually. The gameplay abilities each have are as unique as the fruit preferences in Yoshi's Story or their stats in the Mario Baseball games in that they can easily be described in a paragraph or chart. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 22:40, 8 March 2019 (EST) | ::I'd argue for a merge for those three too, actually.

:::I would too, but I figure it's a safe option. Anyway, it seems I'm getting more support than I thought I would for the other Yoshi colors. | :::I would too, but I figure it's a safe option.

@Yoshi the SSM: There are other green Yoshis besides ''the'' Yoshi character, you know. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 09:29, 9 March 2019 (EST) | @Yoshi the SSM: There are other green Yoshis besides ''the'' Yoshi character, you know. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 09:29, 9 March 2019 (EST) | ||
