Category talk:Deceased people

Split the Mario's Time Machine historical figures into a separate category
Although we agreed that the Mario's Time Machine historical figures are both characters and people, there's something off about Hiroshi Yamauchi being stuck between Henry Ford and Ho Ti. I think that it'd be more valuable for the people (developers, actors, etc.) who had a direct hand themselves in the Mario franchise to receive more attention than the fictionalized appearances of a smorgasbord of figures in a single obscure game. I can guarantee that the vast majority of readers who look at this category are more interested in the former category than the latter; one shows the genuine history, for lack of a better term, of the franchise, and the other is a trivia point. In short, I propose that a new category be created to house the historical figures that exclusively appear in Mario's Time Machine. All of them may be people as per the wiki's technical term, but it's a bit disingenuous to treat them as equally relevant.

Support

 * 1) Per proposal
 * 2) Per proposal
 * 3) Per proposal, and per the reason this category was split from the deceased-character category in the first place.
 * 4) Per proposal. Long term, I'd be in favor of trimming the historical character articles out completely and just linking off to Wikipedia as needed.

You mean like something listing the characters from the game? Because we already have a category for that. 23:57, 9 November 2018 (EST)
 * I said to split the historical figures from this category, making it distinct from this one. The Mario's Time Machine category also lists characters outside of the historical figures, but that's besides the point. 10:46, 10 November 2018 (EST)
 * Yeah, but it's not like that category Toadette the Achiever listed is cumbersome to navigate. 17:06, 11 November 2018 (EST)
 * It's for the purposes of this category, which I'd say is cumbersome to navigate with it being bogged down by fictionalized representations of historical, long-dead figures. 19:16, 13 November 2018 (EST)
 * Since there are only three completely fictional characters (at least) that appear in Mario's Time Machine, I'd say it's not cumbersome. At least it's not to me. 20:01, 17 November 2018 (EST)
 * This category is cumbersome. The Mario's Time Machine category has nothing to do with this proposal. 21:18, 17 November 2018 (EST)
