Trim and merge Smash spirits and stickers
Just like what we did with trophies, I propose we do the same and remove all non-Mario series spirits and merge the rest with Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate). If the spirit just so happens to not be from the Mario series but includes a Mario reference in the background or whatever, it also gets to stay. Same applies to Sticker_(Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl), the article gets trimmed to only include Mario-themed stickers.

If the proposal passes, the following changes will be implemented:
 * 1) 1-500, 501-1000, and 1001-1500 get trimmed and merged with Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate) to only include Mario-related appearances.
 * 2) Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl) gets trimmed the same way as spirits.

Feel free to comment if you've got any issues with the proposal, I can always edit it.

 * 1) Mario Wiki.
 * 2) Let's keep the focus on Mario. The 501-1000 Spirit list has nothing Mario-related in it.

Merge every Super Smash Bros. stage into game-specific lists
It's official, the premise is that the Super Mario Wiki is not a Super Smash Bros. wiki. I was wondering if we can merge every stage into game-specific lists:

Oppose

 * 1) You have made zero effort to elaborate on various aspects of this merge, such as whether this merge involves minutiae like pertinent images, song tables, profiles etc., but most outstandingly, the proposal, intentionally or otherwise, makes a tacit statement that the Mario series stages themselves would also be merged together with the others, which is basically where my opposition is most strong. I assume this is a follow-up to the fighter proposal, which would imply that it aims to round up non-Mario Smash subjects of a particular nature into one page, in which case even a simple statement along those lines would have gone a long way towards clarification. You're basically relying on your voters' guesswork to sort this thing out.
 * 2) Per Koopa con Carne, and lumping 3DS and Wii U into the same page is also a strange decision since they introduced almost completely different stages to each other.
 * 3) Per Koopa con Carne, this needs some serious elaboration rather than just "merge everything".
 * 4) Proposal fails to even mention Mario-related stages and what would be done with extra information.
 * 5) While I like that we're cutting down on Smash Bros. content, those lists of fighters give me flashbacks of the Banjo and Conker series pages, so I don't want the stages to be given that treatment. I'm honestly quite confused about which non-Mario characters gets their own pages and which ones are sections of the fighter lists. And it's unclear with this proposal about what happens with the Mario stages.
