Thunder Rage Disscusion
Should we make this a sub-section of thunderbolt? You know, merge it or something? HK-47 15:48, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

I don't think so. They are two completely items from two different genres of video games. --Son of Suns 15:50, 14 June 2006 (EDT) Ok, they just seemed similar. Wait! Isnt there a thunderbolt in Paper Mario!? That would make them even more similar! HK-47 15:52, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

Actually. Yes there is a Thunder Bolt item. So...it's your call. There is also a Thunderbolt page for the item in the Mario Kart series. --Son of Suns 15:58, 14 June 2006 (EDT) I.... (ponders ramifacations of each option).....(ponders how to spell ramifacations correctly)... I think we should merge all three. I, however, am not confident enough to do this myself. Nor have I yet assertained(sp?) the knowledge required to complete this task. HK-47 16:03, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

I think it more easily acssessable(sp) here. HK-47 16:16, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

Just wanted to move it here. Is that okay? HK-47 16:15, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

Smooth Move
Alright dude! HK-47 16:13, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Ummmm....is this better? --Son of Suns 16:25, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Yes it is. Did the title "smooth move" throw you off. It meant that the merge went well. Thanks! HK-47 16:31, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * No, I understood the title. I just didn't know if you saw the last, final edit I made. I wanted to know your final approval. :) --Son of Suns 16:35, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * I think its great. But you need not my aproval(sp). You're the sysop. Not me. You have more experience. I think its great. But its still your call in the long run.HK-47 16:41, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * While I am a sysop, I am here simply to facilitate other users. I want others to make the calls, not me.--Son of Suns 16:44, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Okay. Did that offend you? I ask only because I can't read emotions through text. I hope it didn't. Sincce I'm calling the shots on thunderbolt merge project, I say.... it sucks. Just kidding. This is much better than before. HK-47 16:48, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * No, I'm not offended. Just reaffirming your importance. :) --Son of Suns 16:51, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Ok cool. I found this site with some maps and sprites from a lot of games. I have to go, but if you could handle setting up some of these into some articles (like bandit's way) it would be a load off my back. Can you help? HK-47 16:54, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

The site with sprites and is here: Just in case you answer this. I must leave for now. I will be back later. HK-47 16:59, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

The original,and wider-used name is Lightning
The original name for the item is Lightning! Just one game calling it a "Thunderbolt",and you call it that! I'll move it to "Lightning".-- Xt e  r  r  a 1 18:30, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Just delete the current Lightning page and move it there,alnog with minor changes.-- Xt e  r  r  a 1 18:33, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Mallow's Thunderbolt
Should it be mentioned in this article, or have it's own article? - Smashgoom202 08:36, 3 September 2008 (EDT)
 * It's a special move and not an item, so it should have its own page. - 09:13, 3 September 2008 (EDT)

Shrunken players
While shrunk the player's size doesn't matter. That info can from the offical player's guide of the game. I made an edit mentioning that. I just wanted to state the source of that info here. User:Mechayoshi

Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser: What to do with it.
Talking with User:Toadette the Achiever on talk page and her responding on mine we came to a disagreement on what to due with it. Me wanting to have them together, while Toadette the Achiever wanting to have them split. We made our arguments on these talk pages, but I will give you a summary.
 * Toadette the Achiever
 * doesn't have the Lightning icon (in the history of this page)
 * it's not confirmed IF it's the same Lightning (in the history of the M&LSS template)
 * Green Star was strongly opposed until info about them being the same appeared
 * Having them together is having Fire Bros. (move) and Fire Flower together
 * Me
 * it does have a similar icon (thunderbolt)
 * they behave similarly to each other
 * same object to fall from the sky
 * having them split is like splitting the Poison Mushrooms base on appearance or Banana Peels from Bananas
 * Fire Bros. (move) and Fire Flower (in the same series) are visibly different and its usage (buttons and every or one enemy) was different too, unlike this
 * Even more similar to each other than Green Stars (Toadette the Achiever disagrees)
 * Mario Kart item, but action is the same (and has exact same effect for teams)
 * My main argument is this: It never was in the Mario & Luigi series, so it's kind of hard to say that it is different. Judging by what is in the series (thunder) and what this object does, I say that it is Lightning (main article) in the game.

Having neither of us agreeing, this became a proposal to determine what to do with this.

Proposer: Deadline: Janurary 12, 2018, 23:59 GMT

Have them together

 * 1) Per what I said.
