As you can see, all these names are differently formatted, and I only pulled 6 examples. My proposal is to create a uniform page name for all race courses to keep it consistent and spare confusion. '''All''' race courses from Mario Kart will have the same format; even new courses from Mario Kart 8 like Water Park: This would be ''Course (Game abbreviation)''. Here are what the previous examples would look like:

<s>I don't think a proposal is necessary. [[MarioWiki:Naming#Shared_titles|The naming policy's section on shared titles]] already says that for ''Mario Kart'' games, console abbreviations are used to be consistent with the retro course naming convention, so this is something we'd end up doing automatically. {{User|Mario4Ever}}</s>

@Stonehill In your proposal, could you add creating a page entitled {{fakelink|List of Parts in the ''Mario Kart'' series}}? I think this would also help with your idea and it would keep all parts on one page. {{User:Mario7/Sig}} 13:47, 5 June 2014 (EDT)

What Ninelevendo said. For the most part, a proposal isn't necessary to create and article, just make it if you think you can pull it off. If it doesn't work out, people will step in and it'll be handled. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]][[User:Ghost Jam|Chris]][[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 17:10, 5 June 2014 (EDT)

#{{User|Billy-Luigi}} I think it's okay but we can maybe call it {{fakelink|List of Nintendo hardware and Mario-related games at the Electronic Entertainment Expo}}??

#{{User|Peanutjon}} I don't see why not. After all, we have a page for [[Nintendo]], which is just as Mario-related, and (possibly more accurately) the Wii U and 3DS.

#{{User|Trainiax}} I think it should. After all, I started creating pages for the E3s themself. This, we shouldn't: {{fakelink|List of characters in Mario Kart 8}}
