:SuperHamster is correct. Official names given by Nintendo (in English) should always be redirects to the appropriate article. Because if Nintendo said it, people may search it. Nobody will search something pointless that Nintendo never used. But as this is the official name to anyone living in Europe, they wouldn't dream of searching "Dr. Mario Express" {{User|Marioguy1}}

Against deletion[edit]

The editor who tagged the redirect for deletion stated, "if the person is wanting to search a little bit of dr. mario, they will see it in the search box where different results come down." That is the entire point of redirects, though, which is to guide readers to the proper article, which in this case is Dr. Mario Express, an alternative name for A Little Bit of Dr. Mario. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 00:26, 7 February 2011 (EST)

SuperHamster is correct. Official names given by Nintendo (in English) should always be redirects to the appropriate article. Because if Nintendo said it, people may search it. Nobody will search something pointless that Nintendo never used. But as this is the official name to anyone living in Europe, they wouldn't dream of searching "Dr. Mario Express" Marioguy1 (talk)
