Talk:Dinosaur

Its common knowlege to know what a dinosaur is but what if someone wants the history and other facts and how they fit into the marioverse.

While I agree that a category would be better suited for this information, the category should be created before the article is deleted. This way, we can make sure everything is right where it should be. -- Chris 17:04, 1 June 2008 (EDT)

Clean up this page
It's a generic subject. With a list of notable characters and species. And an accompanying category. Yeah. Literally the only thing here that's non-generic are the dinos appearing in the Super Mario Bros. film, but other than that, there's nothing here that can't be covered elsewhere, such as T-Rex, T-Rex (character), Pterodactyl, and many more. This page should just be changed to include only the non-generic appearance I mentioned, since the rest serves no real purpose a purpose already achieved by the category I mentioned above.

Support

 * 1) Per proposal.
 * 2) Per proposal.
 * 3) Per proposal.
 * 4) I don't think a proposal is required for this at all. Fire up a talk page discussion questioning the quality of the article, then make the changes, rather than waiting 2 weeks. As this article is poorly made, I don't think you'll get contentious debate on improving the quality.
 * 5) Per proposal.
 * 6) Per Bazooka Mario and proposal.

Oppose

 * 1) Several non-specific examples with roles were in the SMW cartoon. In fact, many examples lumped in on the Rex page don't seem as Rex-like as the ones in Send in the Clown. Then, there are the obstacle ones from Dino Dino Jungle, which reappear in Mario Party 8.

Comments
I think perhaps this article could stay, but covering only the information from the film. The rest is generic and can be explained on other pages. -- 22:39, 11 August 2018 (EDT)
 * @Waluigi Time: Good point. I've changed up the proposal. 22:57, 11 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Add other meaningful generic appearances, like the SMW cartoon and Dino Dino Jungle, and I'll bite. I wouldn't consider those to be "generic subjects" as they have plot and gameplay purposes, respectively. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:42, 12 August 2018 (EDT)
 * I agree with Doc. 22:09, 12 August 2018 (EDT)
