===Courses based on Courses===
<span style="color:red;font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:150%">MERGE THEM 2-14</span>
Hey everyone it's [[User:MC Hammer Bro.]] again. This time I've noticed things like Super Smash Bros. stages and Mario Kart courses that share names with courses in games that they are based off of. Mainly I noticed how Article: [[Tick Tock Clock]], course 14 in ''Super Mario 64'' is seperate from [[Tick Tock Clock (course)]] but...[[Rainbow Ride]] from ''Super Mario 64'' and Rainbow ride (Rainbow cruise) stage from Super Smash Bros. Melee are in the same articel. So my question is show the articles be merged or seperated?

====Split 'em up====
#Courses of the same name from different games should stay split because, well, they have their own qualities.Besides, SSB stages are usually a "very rough" version of the real stage. {{User|Goldguy}}
#{{User|Zafum}} - I think it would be crazy to merge these together, because they really are two different things. I mean, wouldn't it be confusing if you clicked rainbow ride on a template trying to get to the ssbm level, but went to the sm64 world instead? Of course you would have it on that page, but not as the main thing, but as a side subject. I say we ''Split 'em up''.
====Merge 'em together====
#{{User|Tucayo}} - I say merge, beacuse they're supposed to be the same place
#{{User|Son of Suns}} - I would merge article titles that have the ''same name''.  As we now seperate history sections by appearances, articles could have section titles for each game the topic appears in.  For example, Luigi's Mansion could have a section under the title "Luigi's Mansion," then a section titled "Mario Kart series" with the Luigi's Mansion from Mario Kart, which would then state the differences between the original and the MK versions.  Finally, the article could have a "Mario Tennis" section for the mansion's appearance in Mario Power Tennis.

#{{User|MC Hammer Bro.}}- Per Sos. It's a great idea and I guess there are more articles with this delemas than I though.
#{{User|Lu!g!}}.-i think merge for the same reasons as SoS but also some articles are very small and even if we merge all of their realated articles it still wont be nealy as song as say... mario's article so yes MERGE!! DEFINATELY MEEEEERRGE!!!
#{{User|Yoshario}} - Per SoS.
#{{User|Yoshi Boo 118}} - Per SoS.
#{{User|Sonic64}} - I think that we should merge all articles on the same topic. However, we should not go as far as merging Rainbow Ride with Rainbow Road, only articles on things with little to no notable differences, like the Mario Circuits.
#{{User|Randoman123456789}} - Per Son of Suns.
#{{User|YourBuddyBill}} - i like sos's idea. per above.
#{{User|Betaman}} - Per SoS.
====Comments====
Zafum: It will take you to '''both''' things, so i dont see whats wrong {{User|Tucayo}}
:Also, links can be directed to sections, instead of the top of the article.  So say you specifically want to link to the Luigi's Mansion in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.  You simply turn the link into <nowiki>[[Luigi's Mansion#Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Luigi's Mansion]]</nowiki> and you will go straight to the Smash Bros. info, passing by the other sections. -- {{User|Son of Suns}}
Idk, it just seems......as a "bad example" to new users.Who knows, probanly they'll say, "OMG y don't they put seperate articles 4 it!ZOMG they suck!!!lol.I'm leaving." or something like that.{{User|Ninja Yoshi}}
:Well that would be ''their'' loss, now wouldn't it? You can't always get what you want, and if you storm off just because you disagree with some policy somewhere then you're gonna be unhappy for a very long time; it's better to just be flexible. - {{User|Walkazo}}
