Talk:Elvin Gadd (past)

No medical experience? Should this be moved to Young Elvin Gadd then? 19:39, 9 July 2011 (EDT)
 * One, I don't see where it says that in the article, and two, you don't need medical experience to be a professor. --Reversinator 14:27, 31 July 2011 (EDT)

Merge with normal E. Gadd
Should this page just be inserted into the normal E. Gadd's page? I don't really see the need in making up a really short page for a past version of a character. --Cevan
 * Yeah, I agree. His appearance is short and minor, he doesn't coexist with his modern self (unlike the babies) and literally the only difference is hair colour. --Glowsquid (talk) 20:28, 28 March 2013 (EDT)
 * Hm, what do you think of Toadsworth the Younger? 20:53, 28 March 2013 (EDT)
 * Toadsworth the Younger at least coexists with the older guy. This guy doesn't.

Merge Young Professor E. Gadd with Professor E. Gadd
Disagreement may come to the table here, but I have some logical reasoning why these should be merged. Listen very carefully.

1. The babies or young counterparts appeared along side their older counterparts. Young E. Gadd didn't.

2. The only notable difference is the hair. Yes, the hair. Toadsworth the Younger had some personality differences, like caring less about Peach or not having to hold a cane. The babies were more playful than their older counterparts for obvious reasons. Young E. Gadd just has slightly different studies and his fabulous hair, but we could easily put that in the history section of E. Gadd's article.

3. This guy doesn't have a real name. I mean, we could say that about Dr. Toad, but at least he's different than Toad or Dr. Toadley. This guy is just...Young E. Gadd. Yeah, not a different character or anything. Just E. Gadd with good hair that may bring all the girls to the cave.

4. This article is short. It's not a stub, but most babies or young character articles have at least a couple of paragraphs or so. The last sentence admits how needless this article is just to say, "Hey, I'm short, so let me say how worthless this article is in my final sentence". It's so short, even a Bowseritis article could be longer than this article (Just a FYI, nobody should make a Bowseritis article here).

Now that you have read my four points, say your opinion on the subject. Choose whatever choice you like; just remember to think carefully before making your final choice.

 * 1) They are different characters. The page length is not a valid reason.

Well, I don't think the naming is a problem... Yes, he has no official name, but adding "young" in front of the name is just about as good as throwing "Baby" before Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy etc. for those babies, and we can't really do anything much about the name.
