Organization
Is it just me, or is this article highly unorganized? 11:34, 6 February 2009 (EST)

Well it is a bit, but nothing that will take long to fix. -- 11:40, 6 February 2009 (EST)

Actually, as far as sections go, this article is in line with the new article organization standard. Everything in the History section is listed by, first, major series, and then by games in the series or episodes, all according to release date. Remember, seperating "other media" into other sections is considered speculative and POV, so all appearances are arranged according to series and release date, just like the Mama Mario article. --
 * I see. Well, in that case, the SMRPG section should be under the "Super Mario series" section, correct? 12:19, 6 February 2009 (EST)


 * I always considered Super Mario RPG to be an "independent" title, as it does not follow the same gameplay mechanics as Super Mario Bros. and its adapted form in Super Mario 64. Basically, the Super Mario section is for platformers that emerged out of Super Mario Bros.  Series are a combination of naming and gameplay, and Super Mario RPG clearly does not fit into the platforming gameplay of other "Super Mario" games.  Does that make sense? --


 * Uh oh. I think I lost the SMW2 section, creating some confusion.  I'll have to add it back in. --


 * Nevermind. There was no SMW2 section, so I moved the Super Mario RPG section before Yoshi's Story, as it should be. --
 * Alright, I understand that perfectly. It was just that SMRPG has "Super Mario" in its title, so I figured that it belonged in that section. I can understand why it wouldn't though. Thanks for clearing things up. =) 12:28, 6 February 2009 (EST)


 * Yeah. Do you think we should make a Super Mario (series) page?  (The Mario (series) page would then, like it does now, cover all forms of the Mario franchise.)  I would consider the main series to be Super Mario Bros., both versions of 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, Super Mario 64 (DS), Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy.  This is somewhat based on the images FLUDD flashes at the beginning of Super Mario Sunshine, showing a link from SMB to SMW to SM64 to SMS, establishing all four are in the same continuity, and by extension that would include all the "Bros." games, and Super Mario Galaxy (as it acts like a sequel to 64 and Sunshine).  Super Mario World 2 would also be included, but note that this game also acts as a "formal" beginning to the Yoshi series.  What do you think? --  P.S. Mario Bros. would be considered an "ancestor" to the series, but also its own independent title, as the gameplay is radically different.
 * I would see no problem with making a page for those titles. But going by that theory, we would have to create a Super Mario Bros. (series) page, which would cover SMB, SMB:TLL, SMB2, SMB3, SMBDX, and NSMB. Technically the Super Mario series would be a sub-series of the Mario series; but in the same aspect, the Super Mario Bros. series, would be a sub-series of the Super Mario series. And in that same light, we may want to consider making such pages as Super Mario World (series) and Super Mario Land (series), as they would be technical sub-series of the Super Mario series as well. 12:46, 6 February 2009 (EST)
