Merge into Ground BGM (Super Mario Bros.)[edit]

A Yellow Block from Super Mario World This talk page section contains an unresolved talk page proposal. Please try to help and resolve the issue by voting or leaving a comment.

Current time: Friday, October 31, 2025, 18:57 GMT

This page is already extremely short and is a rearrangement of Ground BGM. I see no reason to keep them seperate.
(Apologies if I have messed something up or otherwise made a mistake, this is my first time doing this so I might make an error!)

Proposer: Ihavenoideaboyo (talk)
Deadline: November 13, 2025, 23:59 GMT

Support (Merge pages)[edit]

  1. Ihavenoideaboyo (talk) Per proposal.
  2. Martendo (talk) Per proposal.
  3. Rykitu (talk) Per proposal.
  4. Ground BGM (Super Altendo Bros.) (Game Boy Advance) The only other instance of a souvenir being a rearrangement (I don't even think it's that distinct) is Wrecking Crew, whose main theme doesn't have a page yet (if it does, the souvenir page should get decommissioned like this one).
  5. The A Ground block Master (talk) Per proposal.

Oppose (Pages are left seperate)[edit]

  1. Ground BGM (Super Altendo Bros.) (Game Boy Advance) Per Salmancer in the other proposal. We don't want to have subpages or redirects in navigation templates.
  2. Camwoodstock (talk) Per our vote over on Pumpkin Panic's proposal for the same thing. We'd prefer to think about this a bit more before going for the merge.
  3. The A Ground block Master (talk) Per Altendo
  4. EvieMaybe (talk) this is a page about the souvenir, not about the song it plays.
  5. Arend (talk) Per Evie. If you think this page is pointless, maybe merge all the WarioWare Twisted record souvenirs into a single page?

Comments[edit]

@The Dab Master I don't think you switched your vote over here despite agreeing with the opposition on the other proposal (which aims to do the same thing). Just reminding you in case you forgot; you don't have to change your vote here. Altendo 20:29, October 30, 2025 (EDT)

I was doing other stuff, sorry. The Dab Master 20:34, October 30, 2025 (EDT)
It's fine. Altendo 20:35, October 30, 2025 (EDT)

I think my opinion is being misunderstood. If we merge this page with Ground BGM, it shouldn't change Template:WarioWare: Twisted! souvenirs because "Ground BGM" and the song "Super Mario Bros." are actually the same song. When the articles are merged, "Ground BGM" is still an article about the song "Super Mario Bros". Therefore it doesn't trip the proposal in question. Now I guess you could say "the WarioWare: Twisted 'Super Mario Bros.' record is distinct from Ground BGM" but we did not treat the items that play songs as distinct entities from the songs for the WarioWare Gold records so I don't think that specific argument works. The reason merging "Ashley's Theme" and Pumpkin Panic (record) is a problem is because "Pumpkin Panic" is a distinct thing from Ashley's Theme; its an arrangement and those have different identities from their original versions.

Yeah, what Salmancer said pretty much. He explained it a lot better than I could have. Ihavenoideaboyo (talk) 14:20, October 31, 2025 (EDT)
