 Considering Stanley is on here due to his debut in ''Greenhouse'', should the ''Doki Doki Panic'' characters that later appeared in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' also count? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 15:10, February 13, 2024 (EST)
+:The DDP characters never actually appeared alongside the ''Mario'' cast (not including the newly introduced enemies), so I'd say no. {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 06:52, February 14, 2024 (EST)
+::Never? [[File:Mario imajin doki doki panic.jpg|200px]]? [[File:DDP Promotional Poster.png|200px]]?? [[File:Doki Doki Panic Art 02.jpg|200px]]???

+:::The footer at the bottom of the template says that their appearances need to be "playable, interactable, or plot-relevant". Appearing in promotional artwork does not count towards that. {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 14:40, April 25, 2024 (EDT)
+::::The query I had was about the enemies.... there had since been a proposal on that matter, though. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:53, April 25, 2024 (EDT)
+:::::Oh, my mistake. Even still, I doubt that one non-Mario appearance versus a dozen Mario appearances counts as a crossover. {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 17:14, April 25, 2024 (EDT)
+::::::There's still the question on Stanley, then. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 17:37, April 25, 2024 (EDT)
+:::::::Stanley may have never appeared in a ''Mario'' title, but he certainly has appeared in a ''Donkey Kong'' title. Although he and Mario have never appeared alongside each other (as far as I'm aware), he is technically a ''Donkey Kong'' character, with the DK series being one of our main topics of coverage. Therefore, I'd consider him to be a first-party non-crossover character. {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 05:08, April 26, 2024 (EDT)
+::::::::For the Stanley thing, he can stay. In terms of plot relevancy of Doki Doki Panic characters, uhhh... all I can think about is Wart at this point. Hmmm...oh man this is hard to think about...at this point we might need a separate template...sheesh this is hard...the more I think the more I seem to be breaking down because of this...hmmm...¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

+:::::::::This has mostly to do with Stanley originating in a Game & Watch game that predated - but in some ways served as a prototype for - ''Donkey Kong 3''... in a similar matter to the DDP bosses + Subcons. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:52, May 6, 2024 (EDT)
+::::::::::Exactly. Maybe a separate template for those instances? [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)|talk]]) 15:00, May 6, 2024 (EDT)
+:::::::::::Why do we need a separate template exclusively for an essentially small set of characters? {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 15:19, May 6, 2024 (EDT)
+::::::::::::It's a suggestion. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&#38;K(B&#38;ATSA)|talk]]) 15:47, May 6, 2024 (EDT)
