About the 'Gameplay' part in the Zelda OoT section, I think that it is not quite necessary, because this is a MARIO wiki. We can include the time limit and the fact that there are two save files, but I think that the Gameplay section is totally unneeded. Shall I remove that part? Akfamilyhome 08:18, 10 May 2012 (EDT)

one, this proposal name is hilarious. Anyways, as you can see above, this article has been in varying levels of questioning for 12 years now, and at one point last year, it had a delete template put on it with no corresponding discussion. So, this will serve as its corresponding discussion!

Basically, Masterpieces are widely irrelevant to Mario. Their coverage is a byproduct of a pre-Smash Wiki era where we covered Smash unconditionally, which has definitely passed; yet for some reason, this article remains almost fully intact. While there are some Mario games in this, they are by no means the only games, and it makes us wonder how necessary any of this really is. We can think of three things to do:

  • Delete: Plain and simple, delete this article. Masterpieces will, at most, receive a minor mention on the articles for Brawl and for Wii U as an explanation for what they are. Masterpiece (microgame) could also likely just be renamed to "Masterpiece" without a Masterpiece article.
  • Merge info to Brawl/for Wii U: The list of Masterpieces featured in the two games are instead placed on the articles for Brawl and for Wii U respectively, while this article becomes a disambiguation page pointing to those and the Masterpiece microgame.
  • Do nothing: Self-explanatory; we just leave this article as-is and don't delete it.

  1. Camwoodstock (talk) This is our personal preference. Given the shifts in our coverage policy, it seems only fair to nix this entirely.

Merge to Brawl and for Wii U's articles

  1. Camwoodstock (talk) Our secondary option; we feel like this might be a bit unnecessary for a Mario wiki, we can see the merit in at least listing the games in a table form on the games' articles.

Do nothing
