Change how RPG enemy infoboxes classify role
So for SMRPG, the Paper games, the M&L games, and M+R:KB, the bestiary infoboxes have a weird arbitrary system where name formatting (bold, italic, underline, etc.) is used to convey what type of encounter an enemy is (enemy, miniboss, major boss, boss helper). Not only is this useless without the keys at the top of each bestiary page, but plenty of enemies have multiple roles at different points that this system cannot handle, and it completely leaves out "training" battles (ie the "timed hits" Goomba from SMRPG; Bowser, Fawful, and Hammerhead Bros. in Superstar Saga; and Bowser, Jr. Troopa, Goombario, and Eldstar in Paper Mario) that occur to teach game mechanics and otherwise don't really fit with the other categories (a "boss" that cannot be lost to is hardly a boss, ditto the unwinnable Bowser in PM). What I propose is to turn this into a standard listing like everything else covered on the tables, as this solves all three problems.

Merging non-Mario Smash Bros. series bosses and the remaining enemies. Round 3!
Good evening!

I think this is going to be my last Smash Bros. proposal, see the other two here and also [https://www.mariowiki.com/MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/59#Merging_Smash_Bros._objects:_Round_2! here too].

The Super Smash Bros. series has had several bosses and enemies. Most enemies have already been merged a long time ago, however, some still remain and should probably be merged as well. I also propose to merge bosses that have nothing to do with Mario (Giga Bowser and Giant Donkey Kong (the page is yet to be recreated at the time of writing this per another proposal) will be untouched). It was also previously established that cameo appearances do not justify keeping a page. Some bosses like Dracula appeared in Captain N, but it's a guest appearance, so it doesn't count. Also some bosses have quite a bit of information, but I did check how it'd look as one page and it looks alright.

As always, if I made a mistake or you want something removed/changed/added from/in this list, leave a comment and I'll change this proposal accordingly. Also feel free to comment asking for a new option to be added.

List O
The following bosses will be merged into a collective article:
 * Duon
 * Marx
 * Dracula
 * Ganon
 * Crazy Hand
 * Dharkon
 * Rathalos
 * Galleom
 * Master Hand
 * Galeem
 * Rayquaza
 * Porky Statue
 * Porky
 * Tabuu
 * Master Core

Non-bosses:

The other two pages will be merged with this section, simply because I have zero clue where else to put them, and they really feel out of place considering every other enemy got merged. Leave a comment if you have a better idea:
 * Fighting Polygons - merge with Battlefield
 * Fighting Alloy Team - merge with Battlefield
 * Fighting Wire Frames - merge with Battlefield
 * Fighting Mii Team merge with Smash Run enemies list
 * Shadow Bug
 * False Character
