Creating a Cannon page for the Mario Kart series
In my first day of life in this wiki, I proposed to make a Cannon for the Mario Kart series. Look at this (the last section). I proposed it 3 weeks ago, but none looks at it. It's time to make a proposal for it. We definitely deserve this. Oh, and if you are not OK with this, look at the description of the second image in Airship Fortress: it says that Peach is being shooted away by a Cannon Pipe. Well, it could be a Cannon Pipe in that track, but the one in Maple Treeway is clearly NOT a Cannon Pipe. The same the one of DK Summit, as seen in the bottom. Because DK Mountain's cannon is the same, neither it is a Cannon Pipe, proving that the majority of the cannons are NOT Cannon Pipes. Cannon Pipes are simply Pipes that shoots high into the air. VERTICALLY. The ones in Mario Kart games shoot DIAGONALLY. And those Pipes (the one in Airship Fortress and Cloudtop Cruise) are different from Cannon Pipes: in the real ones, you can enter only from the TOP (files at bottom). In the Mario Kart ones, they are only decorations, since you enter from the BOTTOM. And normal Cannon Pipes have NOT a ramp before it, while the ones in Mario Kart have. EVERY ONE. We can assume that Mario Kart Cannons are NOT Cannon Pipes, but are a different type of Cannons. They need their own article. And their own images, as there isn't any image that clearly show them. In a nutshell...



See the difference?

Propser: Deadline: August 1st, 2014, 23:59 GMT

Make a page for it

 * 1) Per proposal.
 * 2) Per proposal, they're barely even similar.

Don't make a page for it

 * 1) Standard oppose vote, per rule 15. You don't need a proposal for "creating, expanding, rewriting or otherwise fixing up pages". Either be bold and make the page or take it to the collaboration forum first.

Comments
Because there is a thing like this that appears in Rainbow Road, are we doing an article based on MK Things like that in general, or just particular ones like Maple Treeway? - 04:37, 25 July 2014 (EDT)
 * Of Mario Kart in general, possibily listing all appearences.
 * What would the name be? - 05:01, 25 July 2014 (EDT)

@Ghost Jam: I was already about to make it, but I wasn't sure it was OK for a such page and I made the proposal. And if you read the last section of the talk I linked, Ninelevendo writed "Though I want to see what others think." This is what I am doing.
 * I didn't particularly mean a proposal, asking a more experienced user was also an idea, but hey, we're here now. I'm just not (and still not) to sure on the name, as some of those "Cannons" aren't actually cannons. - 06:51, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
 * If you'd like to poll the crowd on something that is questionable proposal material, we have a collaboration board on the forums, or you could even hop in the chat and ask for a few opinions. I'm rejecting on principle, but I do agree with your point. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]]Ghost Jam[[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 14:15, 26 July 2014 (EDT)

Not choosing either side, because I agree with the proposal, and Ghost Jam's opose. -- 14:01, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
 * Well, I don't have a forum account. At this point, I could even make the page and delete the proposal, but I'm not sure. I'll see what to do...
 * Firstly, I encourage you to join the forums. It's one of the major social centers of our community and we'd love to have you. Secondly, if you think you can pull it off, just right to the article with our blessings. You might want to make it in your userspace or on the forums first if you'd like feedback before committing it to the wiki. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]]Ghost Jam[[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 22:05, 26 July 2014 (EDT)

"I wasn't sure it was OK for a such page and I made the proposal"

That's where "being bold" comes in. :) 20:58, 26 July 2014 (EDT)


 * Ghost Jam: We can just delete this per our freshly fang-sharpened Rule 15, y'know. It doesn't even need to be a normal archived affair or anything, just axe it. - 22:17, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
