Talk:Goomba (Super Paper Mario character)

Delete.
Literally the only reason this character has a page is because they are friends with another goomba with a throwaway name. They don't look different, they don't act different, they have minimal story relevance at best and they don't even have a name. our policy for minor characters discourages page creation if they lack a name, and even if this guy did, we don't cover every single X-naut on a unique page because one of them (in a scene where a hoard of them were present) was named "Johnson". Not to mention the big MPA character merge that happened a few months ago which merged most MPA characters to their species articles despite much more relevance than this Goomba and official (albeit generic) names. So why does this random Goomba deserve a separate page when those others I mentioned can't?

 * 1) It's borderline ridiculous that I need a proposal to do this but this page was apparently created from a proposal on Gary's talk page so, yeah.
 * Can be easily merged to Goomba's SPM section on the Goomba article. Plus, the Lakitu from Bowser's Minions never received an article either despite his promience.
 * For consistency with the MPA merge. Though, actually, I think this info might be best on the Gary article, though I have no clue how to incorporate it there.
 * 1) Per all.
 * 2) I don't really agree with Ahemtoday's idea of covering this in Gary's article, though it would be suitable for the main Goomba article.

Comments

 * Does this really need a talk page proposal? I mean, we never gave the Lakitu from ML: SS + BM a separate page despite his prominence in the story and with the aforementioned MPA character merge, I'd say just go ahead and merge to Goomba's section.

 * This page was created from another talk page proposal so yes, the rules say you need a proposal to revert a proposal. 09:31, February 12, 2023 (EST)
