 So what I'm saying is, is it okay with you if I start a multi-option proposal for ''Mario Kart'' course naming conventions? I would suggest every naming convention we've cycled through over time, as well as my preferred option first and foremost. {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 22:48, February 9, 2022 (EST)
+:Take a look at [https://i.imgur.com/t25emOI.png this]: Console abbreviations are alive and well when it comes to the older console courses. I love that those line up with exactly what we have, and it makes our pages super discoverable for players searching what they see in-game (with no old game identifiers needed for repeated course titles - games they may have never even played [using a game identifier for content that appears in multiple games is not ideal]). So that system continues to deliver for us; there's no way we're moving all those again.
+:Regarding Tour: I agree, both Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Mario Kart Tour are currently "live games" (and oddly, Tour was released more recently), so all things considered, I think it makes sense for us to continue to prioritize Tour's normal course titles over the classic titles. So let's not move any Tour courses to a "Tour" prefix until that game is basically abandoned or unplayable (and when the Tour service does shut down, it's likely that the only way any of those courses will be playable at all is with a [https://i.imgur.com/IERykTC.png clunky prefix] attached, so it might not seem so weird then).
+:In conclusion, we'll keep the console abbreviations and keep Tour courses where they're at, the least changes possible. I really don't see this DLC as cause for another grand reshuffling of those pages; if there was some more radical change to the convention then I'd be open to it. I really believe this is the best course of action, and even if you disagree, I hope you can understand my reasoning. Thank you for reading --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 01:50, February 10, 2022 (EST)
