Talk:Coin ring

What is this name from?

Split Super Mario 64 (and DS) with Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World
Two things:


 * 1) Is the Super Mario 64 ring even called a Coin Ring? I think it should be called Water Ring because it comes from a Manta and the jet stream underwater (as if no source confirming the name is found)
 * 2) The coin rings in SM64 operate very differently than the coin rings in 3D Land and 3D World. The SM64 coin ring gives no coins but rather air and a secret number to get a Power Star while 3D Land and 3D World give the player 5 coins.

I propose a split, but I give you two options to work with along with an oppose vote.

Proposer: Deadline: October 13, 2016, 23:59 GMT

Move SM64 Contents Into Water Ring

 * 1) Per proposal. Very fond of this option as it makes the most sense.
 * 2) Per. (Will change vote if a source confirming "Coin Ring" for SM 64)
 * 3) Preferred choice, per all.
 * 4) Per all!
 * 5) I think this is a splitting of the two. per all.

Keep Coin Ring for SM64 but Move 3D Land and 3D World Contents to a Different Page

 * 1) Per proposal. Not fond of this option but a split should occur.

 * You can multi-vote per proposal if that is what you mean. -- 21:32, 29 September 2016 (EDT)

SM64DS Prima pocket guide: "You have to swim through five of the rings it trails behind it [the Manta] in a row." SM3DL Prima eGuide: "Many levels contain large golden rings called coin rings. These are typically used to mark suggested paths. Pass through a coin ring to collect five coins" SM3DW Prima eGuide: "Step through a Gold Ring to instantly snag three Coins without having to worry about a time limit at all."

That's all the guides I can access. 13:02, 29 September 2016 (EDT)
 * We got our source for the 3DS games but SM64 is vague and has no official name. -- 21:31, 29 September 2016 (EDT)

"Manta Ring" is not the best name for these rings. In Dire, Dire Docks, a jet stream spews out several of these rings. It would be better to call these "Water Rings" and use template to help readers guide to the appropriate ring. 14:17, 29 September 2016 (EDT)
 * I was thinking that as well. I agree. Makes sense. I'll make the change. -- 21:31, 29 September 2016 (EDT)
