#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} Considering all of the "History of X" articles that have been written, why don't we ''keep'' the separate articles, but ''rebrand'' them as "History of X in ''Super Mario Bros.'' (1993)"? Maybe down the road, if Illumination gets enough content, we'll think about if we want to do "History of X in film" or "History of X in cartoons" or something. This'll satisfy the proposal's condition while lightening the load. Plus, this'll save the headache of merging the character infoboxes (unless the idea was to keep them intact in film sections). | |||

#{{User|SeanWheeler}} The 1993 movie was an awful adaptation that changed too much. I would want [[Bob Hoskins]]' Mario to remain separate from the the games' Mario. President Koopa is clearly very different from Bowser. | #{{User|SeanWheeler}} The 1993 movie was an awful adaptation that changed too much.

#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} I'm still okay with this, too. I know ''we'' don't make canonical judgments, but when ''creatives'' do on the rare occasion, that's where I think we should stand. After all, "This Ain't No Game." Per [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/44#Oppose 8|myself]] in the old proposal. | |||

:::You see, while the 1993 Mario movie characters are drastically different from their mainline game counterparts (or namesakes), the same can''not'' be said about the Paper Mario characters, which stay relatively close to the source material in comparison. Sure, the first three games gave most enemies a couple of design quirks that stand out from the mainline games, but they are still recognizable as those enemies.<br>Same deal with the 2023 Mario movie counterparts; they have some differences, but are still clear and recognizable as the same characters. {{User:Arend/sig}} 17:41, April 5, 2024 (EDT) | :::You see, while the 1993 Mario movie characters are drastically different from their mainline game counterparts (or namesakes), the same can''not'' be said about the Paper Mario characters, which stay relatively close to the source material in comparison.

::::I never really nailed down how it would work, but wouldn't be as full splits. Maybe something along the lines of how we now have "History" articles split from their sections. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 09:45, April 12, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Regarding Iggy, unused scripts on the SMBMovieArchive website show that originally, there were other Koopaling-named characters (like Morton and Wendy as announcers), showing Iggy was an intentional reference.
