Decide what to move Super Mario Galaxy 2 worlds to

don't rename 1-0-1-8
The worlds in Super Mario Galaxy 2 have names, but each article for the six main worlds is named "World <#> (Super Mario Galaxy 2)" while the article for the special world is called "World S". The good news is I was wondering if there's a possibility to decide what to rename the worlds. There are four options to choose from:

Option 1
Create the {{suffixed title}}, {{SMG2 world}}, {{SMG2 world-link}}, and {{SMG2 world title}} templates (the {{suffixed title}} template works like {{prefixed title}}, with the small text being placed after the first parameter, while the {{SMG2 world}}, {{SMG2 world-link}}, and {{SMG2 world title}} work like {{classic}}, {{classic-link}}, and {{classic title}} respectively, with the skeleton being "World <#>: <small><name></small> and the example being World 1: The Great Space Journey Begins) and move the following pages to the world number and name:
Option 2
ONLY move the following pages to the world number and name:
Option 3
ONLY move the following pages to the name:
Option 4
Do nothing.

Option 1

  1. GuntherBB (talk) My primary choice.

Option 2

Option 3

  1. GuntherBB (talk) My secondary choice.

Option 4

  1. Nightwicked Bowser (talk) These names are only displayed on the save file and are not shown while playing the game itself. Even if you go to a different world and save the game, the name on the save file doesn't change and is still the name of the world you should be on. Then there's the fact that when doing the green stars, the save file name is "the green star challenge is on" and when the game is completed 100% the name is "master of galaxies".
  2. MegaBowser64 (talk) Per my fellow Bowser
  3. YoYo (talk) the names you've assigned to each world are actually the names for the "chapters" in the game's progression, not the names for the worlds themselves. it would be like naming each kingdom from Super Mario Odyssey's page after their first moon.
  4. Nintendo101 (talk) These are not the names of the worlds. They are subtitles provided to the player for narrative context.
  5. FanOfYoshi (talk) Per all, especially the Bowser Bros.
  6. OmegaRuby (talk) While the other options would be what I personally use, they are not the actual names of the worlds themselves. Per all.
  7. Sdman213 (talk) Per all.
  8. Camwoodstock (talk) Per all, especially Nightwicked Bowser and Yoyo. These don't seem to be the worlds' actual names, just a status on the save menu. There's definitely a better way to convey this information about the save menu descriptions than to clumsily bake them into the world pages' names!

Create a {{visible anchor}} template

canceled by proposer
I've come up with an idea for a sub-template for the {{anchor}} template. A {{visible anchor}} retains its behavior like {{anchor}}, with the only difference being that the first parameter will be visible text on the page. You can go here to read the documentation on Wikipedia. Do you have any thoughts that there's a possibility create the {{visible anchor}} template?

  1. GuntherBB (talk) Per proposal

Oppose

  1. PnnyCrygr (talk) Redundant and unnecessary for a fan wiki which tries not to be like Wikipedia. If that so-called visible anchored is templated onto any link, that should create any visual mess. Enough said...
  2. Camwoodstock (talk) This is redundant for our purposes. Per PennyCrygr. This is redundant for our purposes.
  3. Hewer (talk) Per all, the proposal makes absolutely no argument as to why we should have this feature and how it would help us beyond "Wikipedia has it".
