Talk:Door

=From deleted page=

SMB2J
In the FDS version of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, when Mario beats Bowser in W8-4, he finds a door and goes inside to find Princess Peach. Can this be counted as a door that should be mentioned in this article? 05:07, 1 March 2012 (EST)


 * Of course!

Slam the door on this article
Check this proposal out.

"MarioWiki is also not a dictionary. We don't need articles on real world objects. I believe we should set a restriction for which of these generic articles can and can't be created. We should only allow articles on generic subjects that have a function which is different from the real world counterpart."

From what I can discern from this article, here's what a door does:


 * Allows passage.
 * Locked doors require a key.

Thank goodness for MarioWiki. Otherwise, I would've never figured out how to leave my room. D:

Special doors, like Trapdoor, Dorguy, Thousand-Year Door, Secret Door, and even the door from Mario vs. Donkey Kong have their own page already. Also, any special qualities a door might have, such as being a portal for Subspace, doesn't pertain to the door itself. The doors still act like... you guessed it... a door.

Close

 * 1) This article is messy, dumb, and everything. Besides, it's incomplete. Where are those poor, marginalized car doors? And Bridge is filing a complaint letter responding to this blatant discrimination.
 * 2) Though I think the article has partial merit from a certain standpoint (how many doors do you know that are created via magic potions?), the article as it stands now is really useless, and any information that could potentially be useful can be found in a more informative manner on another article (such as Magic Potion).
 * 3) We'll close this door article like the door in that major league locker room in TTYD; it'll never open again.
 * 4) As said in the proposal, there is nothing useful on this page.
 * 5) Let's lock it, per all.
 * 6) The real world thing are pretty bad. This is the worst.
 * 7) Pointless article.
 * 8) Lock and shut the door, and throw away the key.
 * 9) Per all
 * 10) Per all.

Leave it open

 * 1) I think it actually has potentially useful information.
 * 2) Doors are very prominent in the Mario series by now, just look at the gallery and see how many games use doors. If this was a very minor subject I'd say yeah, delete it, but this is pretty important.
 * 3) Per all.

For those of you who think I'm gone, the blacklist that disables access to this website on my computer takes effect at midnight tonight, so I'm still here... for now.

Tell me what the "useful" information is? 19:29, 11 March 2014 (EDT)

I've always been fascinated by the doors in the game, and I never even knew this amazing page existed! It has pictures of all the doors in the game, which I find really cool, but the only way I'd be okay with this is by putting all the pictures and some information on another page.
 * So... you like this article because of the images?
 * I think all those pictures of those doors... they feel just pointless. Also, this article is missing doors from nearly every other Mario game and media, like Mario Party; what makes these doors more worthy to have their own pictures? 19:42, 11 March 2014 (EDT)

This article is mostly these lines below.


 * "A door makes a small appearance in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. After Mario beats Bowser in World 8-4, he walks into a door, where he finds Princess Peach and saves her."
 * "In Super Mario 64 and its remake, Mario uses doors to explore and visit different areas of Princess Peach's Castle and different levels."
 * "Many doors appear in Luigi's Mansion and Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon."
 * "Doors also appeared in other series of games, such as the Donkey Kong series, Wario series, Paper Mario series and Mario Party series. Doors appeared in Mario cartoons, movies and comics as well."

The doors about "Subcon" are deviants, created by Magic Potions, but the doors still act like regular doors. I don't expect people to be confused once they see a door pop out, so they research this wiki to find out its purpose. Plus, these doors are linked to Magic Potions, and as I said before, special doors already get their own page, making this article more pointless.

Just look at the gallery of this page. The way the article presents all these doors as if they're significant... it's laughable. 19:42, 11 March 2014 (EDT)

So if this passes, shouldn't Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong) be moved here?-- 15:00, 12 March 2014 (EDT)
 * I guess so... but... I guess so. If THAT article is significant enough. 22:42, 13 March 2014 (EDT)

 * Page history has been deleted.

This article name is conjectural but I don't know the template.

I have the image file, but I can't upload it...

Merge this article with Door
In the Help Mode of the game, If the player touched the Door, The game will describe about the Mini Mario and The door with a title of "Mini Mario & Door", Meaning that that door is named " Mini Mario & Door" → "Door".

Proposer: Deadline: January 14, 2013, 23:59 GMT ; January 21, 2013, 23:59 GMT ; January 28, 2013, 23:59 GMT ; February 4, 2013, 23:59 GMT

Merge with Door

 * 1) Per my propose.
 * 2) Regular doors don't appear in this game.  They act pretty much the same way.
 * 3) Per BowserJunior.
 * 4) Per proposal. They are basically doors, and this is currently a stub.
 * 5) Per proposal.
 * 6) Blue Coin is not split into Blue Coin (Super Mario 64) and Blue Coin (Super Mario Sunshine), just because they act differently.
 * 7) They're doors. There's nothing special enough about them to warrant being separate from the main Door article.
 * 8) - Per all.
 * 9) - Per proposal.
 * 10) ...Just because Mini Marios walk into the doors doesn't mean it should be another article. (rolls eyes) Also, per SWF.

Keep it as Mini Door

 * 1)  These are special objects that have diffrent functions to doors, doors just take Mario to a diffrent part of the, Mini Mario Doors are doors were you have to get all Mini Marios though to clear the level.
 * 2) Per NSY.
 * 3) Per NSY
 * 4) Per NSY.
 * 5) Per NSY.
 * 6) &mdash; Per NSY.
 * 7) Per NSY.
 * 8) Per NSY.

Creating Redirects
I see that we should -After Merging it- create 5 redirects "Mini Mario Door", "Mini Peach Door", "Mini Toad Door", Mini Donkey Kong Door" and "Mini Pauline Door". Discuss about creating redirects here :

Megadardery, remember to add   to your proposals.--

New Super Yoshi, I see what you're pointing to... but In Game description, it says that they are just "Doors", If you find a resource for the real name just point here..

It's not name that decides what goes in each page, it is the function that decides, if this passes I will propose a reverse and then people will understand why it needs it's own article.


 * Remember you can do that only after four weeks, as per rule #7. -- 03:52, 11 January 2013 (EST)

Ok I may actually have an idea, if the game refers to them as simply "Door" but they function differently, maybe move the article to "Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)" or something like that.


 * I agree with that. -- 19:36, 22 January 2013 (EST)
 * And me too. -- 08:08, 23 January 2013 (EST)
 * I also agree. --King Pikante (talk) 12:51, 28 January 2013 (EST)
 * You have my vote! =)--.

After This proposal gets settled, Someone should create another to move it to "Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)".
 * So maybe you should close this proposal and make a new one? Just a thought?

Move to "Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)"
The game refers to them as simply "Door" but they function differently, so we should move the article to "Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)"

Proposer: Deadline: February 20, 2013, 23:59 GMT

Support

 * 1) Per my propose.
 * 2) Per proposal and NSY's comment above.
 * 3) Per proposal.
 * 4) Per all.
 * 5) Per all.
 * 6) Per proposal.

Oppose

 * 1) Per my reason given in the first proposal (specifically that they're not special enough to warrant this sort of distinction).
 * 2) - Per Mario4Ever.

...Oy you guys aren't gonna let this one go, are ya?

Rename to Mini Door
In the article itself it says Mini Doors are doors that Mini Marios enter to complete the level in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!. They are yellow-colored in the first two games, but in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! Yet the title is Door. It should be moved to a more proper name.

Proposer: Deadline: May 21, 2013, 23:59 GMT

Support

 * 1) It needs a more proper and appropriate name.  Per proposal.

Comments
Note that this is overturning the first proposal on this page.
 * The first proposal failed to reach consensus, though, so how is it overturning it?
 * 19:51, 7 May 2013 (EDT)
 * And you should be able to move this article to Mini Door anyway, because the first proposal did not pass anyway.
 * 19:53, 7 May 2013 (EDT)

Hm, I think you meant the second proposal. In that case, the name in bold should be revised to fit the change, but it didn't happen yet, so that's why the bolded name is inconsistent.
