Page should be combined with Sidestepper page. New Page made for Donkey Kong's fishing crap as it has no relation to other mario crabs nor sidesteppers.

Crabber

Aren't the crabs from Super Mario Galaxy named Crabbers, according to a mission in SMG2? If they are, the part in this article about them doesn't belong here. Fawfulfury65

Yes, they are Crabbers. --FREAK ~Game GameBros.png Freak~ OUT!
So, why don't we split it? ArendLogoTransparent.pngrend (talk) (edits)

I think we should split it. Hank J. Wimbleton from the Madness Combat Internet Series. The legend of zelda rocks(talk|edits) ShyguyYakuman.gif

Delete?

Does this actually need a page? It's just about crabs as background objects that don't affect gameplay, enemies based on crabs, and things that look like crabs. Binarystep (talk) 00:42, 18 April 2015 (EDT)

The majority of this article is generic crap and borders on the same type of crap Sun used to have. The information about the Crab for the fishing thing and as Mario Kart obstacles might be reason enough for it to stay, though. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS.

I think the DKC bit alone is enough to justify the article (obtainable item with a clear effect). Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Okay, let's face it: this article borderline fails the generic subjects policy. We already have numerous articles on specific crustaceans, such as Sidestepper, Clawdaddy (including King Clawdaddy), Huckit Crab, Scurvy Crew, the list goes on. The only non-generic crab on this list is the one from Mario Kart 64, though since they're replaced with Sidesteppers in later appearances, I have three options to suggest:

  1. Trim the article to only include Mario Kart 64 information.
  2. Delete the article and relocate the Mario info to the Sidestepper article.
  3. And finally, do nothing.

It may not be quite a bad as some of the other generic subject articles that I've seen, but it still needs to be evaluated regardless.
