The Pink Coins from this game obviously have different functions; Maker's are for collecting to obtain Keys, and Run's are collectibles that actually count toward 100%'ing the game. I say we split these into their respective game articles, and keep this page as a disambiguator.

Proposer: Toadette the Achiever (talk)
Deadline: January 3, 2017, at 23:59 GMT.

Support

1. Toadette the Achiever (talk) Per proposal.
2. Andymii (talk) I don't think the developers were thinking of referencing Mario Maker when they put the Pink Coin in Super Mario Run. Per proposal.
3. Owencrazyboy9 (talk) Per both, especially Andymii. Plus the fact that the pink, purple and black coins are collectively known as Challenge Coins, so of course they function differently than the other pink and purple coins.
4. Green Mario (talk) The only real similarity between the pink coins in Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Run are that they're, well, pink coins. They don't even have the same emblem in the two games. Per proposal.
5. Mario jc (talk) Per my comment here. The two are more drastically different from one another than the Purple Coins, and I agree on the high possibility that they never intended to reference Mario Maker's Pink Coin with Mario Run's.
6. Quizmelon (talk) Per all.

Oppose

1. Wildgoosespeeder (talk) I find this case to be similar to Green Star and Green Star (Super Mario 3D World). Should we split Coin where Super Mario 64-like collecting games are different from Super Mario Bros.-like collecting games? How about splitting because some games use it as currency? No split.
2. Yoshi the Space Station Manager (talk) While typing my fourth comment on Talk:Purple Coin, I realized that to the general person (this includes number IPs) would want to search for pink coin. I don't think they should be taken to a page with two (or more) options. They should be taken to a page with both the information they want, and some other information they may not have looked at if it was on a separate page. And in the future when there are more than two games with different mechanics, pink coin should include all of those mechanics. (basically per Wildgoosespeeder)

Comments

I am not sure quite yet which I am going to take. But I have an question. Couldn't you wait until after the other proposal to be completed or at least more into it? Yoshi the SSM (talk) 00:00, 20 December 2016 (EST)

What would happen if pink-colored coins (look like normal coins, but are pink) appear in future games? It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 22:11, 20 December 2016 (EST)

We can always cross that bridge if we come to it.  ToadettetheAchiever 10:30, 21 December 2016 (EST)
