 * Looks fair, considering the templates we have on SML and SML2. Go for it. - 17:02, 11 October 2007 (EDT)

Missing info in Mariogames?
Also considering the possibility of editor oversight, shouldn't contain what this template has in terms of games? 00:35, 9 January 2016 (EST)


 * I support the proposed addition.

Merge with
Per comments above. Surely this template is the blue whale in the crowd in terms of consistency. Therefore, I propose we merge this template with so as to allow individual templates on games in the Dr. Mario series to be created.

Support

 * 1) Per proposal.
 * 2) Per proposal.
 * 3) Assimilate the whale!
 * 4) Per proposal.
 * 5) Per all, this doesn't appear to be a particularly useful template.
 * 6) Per all, assimilate the whale.
 * 7) Not sure why this was made in the first place. The "related to the series" section seems like an attempt at justifying this template's existence by making it a little bit bigger, since no other game navbox does this.
 * 8) First of all, Dr. Mario is just an alter-ego of Mario. Secondly, the Dr. Mario series isn't even counted as a spin-off franchise of its own; it's just one of many subseries within the larger Marioverse.
 * 9) If the other sub-series are merged into it, I don't see why Dr. Mario shouldn't be.
 * 10) Per all.
 * 11) I do want to split the whole template into smaller templates like this one (that only have the series' games in the template, making this a replacement template for every single game instead of giving them their own templates is very silly) as discussed on the template's talk page, while putting those templates on this templates for better organization, however as that has not happened yet merging this template this makes sense for the current moment.

Comments
I'm not so sure. Template redirects usually tend to be deleted. -- 02:22, July 15, 2019 (EDT)
 * I don't see why following policy and deleting template redirects is bad. Please explain. 12:02, July 15, 2019 (EDT)
