Hello! I'm a supporter of DKWiki merging with Super Mario Wiki. At the suggestion of {{user|Alex95}}, I came here to point out some good articles from the DKWiki whose Mario Wiki counterparts would be significantly improved if they had the others' information: [http://www.dkwiki.com/Bonus_Level Bonus Level], [http://www.dkwiki.com/Funky%27s_Fishing_(minigame) Funky's Fishing] and [http://www.dkwiki.com/Crosshair_Cranky Crosshair Cranky]. Just some help with the job. Many people agree with the proposal and there's currently no opposition. My question is, what's gonna happen to DKWiki articles that are equally as good as their MarioWiki counterparts? Would be a pity to delete them simply. -- {{User:Super Radio/Sig}} 11:28, 27 March 2018 (EDT)

:In regards to the merging process, I am planning to systematically review all articles on DKWiki. After an article is reviewed on DKWiki, a review indicator will be applied to that article (either a template will be added or the page will be deleted; I haven't finalized the review marking method.) During that review process, many of the articles will have no new information or be identical (i.e. likely copied from Super Mario Wiki). These can be safely marked as reviewed. Another group of articles will have new information, or obviously improved formatting, and will be integrated into Super Mario Wiki's version of the article. For the rare case where the information is comparable, but the style is incompatible, a judgement call can be made on which style to retain. Most articles will not have this problem; the information and style of DKWiki is relatively comparable to Super Mario Wiki.
