Huh? Why is it a seperate article...? :\ My Bloody Valentine
The proposal to split the tracks was made a long time ago and was voted in favor of splitting, I volunteered to do all this and I am. It'll be all set soon. Mario Gamer 03:20, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
...Could you provide evidence, please? Like, a link to the proposal? uper-Yoshi
It was somewhere back on page 7. I brought it up in the Pipe Project thing a long time ago but no one said anything at all. So I went ahead based on that. Besides having seperate pages has a lot more pros then cons. You can have a lot more images of a track (which I plan on doing) without as much of a clutter. You can have info boxes for more organization. As I've started to do here. I'm also planning on adding more info to the pages going over shortcuts and such. Anyway, I don't expect any help from this, I'm planning on doing this all myself so all you have to do is sit back and watch. And if it's really truly a big deal, I can revert them back. But I think that this looks better then this clutter. Something that was apparently shared in that proposal.

Uh, but the tracks in the different games are basically the same, aren't they? Thus, no need to split. Time Questions 05:52, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
They have different layouts, sure. But they are still the same race course, are they not? Star Hill appears in both Super Mario RPG and Partners in Time, and they have very different layouts, but do THEY have seperate articles? I didn't think so. The Luigi Circuit article is there for a reason; Making seperate articles isn't entirely neccessary, especially since the original article can just be fixed in the case that it's "untidy" or "cluttered up". My Bloody Valentine While I AM impressed with your work on this, Mario Gamer, I still don't think they should be seperated.
I agree with Pokemon DP that it seems better to have them NOT separated but rather in one article. He made some good points above. Hey, you never agree with my points, DP!
Look at Mario Kart Wii. It contains three "Mario Circuit" racetracks and three "Bowser's Castle" ones, which are all totally different in layout. Nintendo just likes to put in courses that represent characters in the Mario Kart games, and they use a similar theme each time, but the courses themselves stand out on their own. I know the geography of Mario's world changes constantly, and that we don't have a seperate "Mushroom Kingdom" article for each game it appears in, but for secluded areas such as racetracks, it's more organized this way. After all, Luigi Circuit is a Luigi Circuit. -- Booster
Well the new opinions seem to unanimously agree in one page, so I edited the Luigi Circuit page to what it would look like if I merged anything. Before I start redirecting pages to it, is this what we want? I have no problem changing these back, there were only three or four that I changed in the first place. But on another note I think Sherbet Land should be seperated into maybe a Sherbet Land (Racecourse). Since it's variations are for two different purposes, and I think they're different locations all together.
Lemme know what you think. I'd be adding galleries to each of the Luigi Circuit version to include some actual screen shots.

At the very least, split up all the places that serve as racecourses/tennis courts/baseball stadiums, etc... , such as Luigi's Mansion (location). Maybe from there we can reach an agreement of some sort with the others. -- Booster
Okay well it should all be fixed now. Time to get back to work.
