I agree with NY. I think this page should be protected so only autoconfirmed users can edit it due to it's likeliness to be spammed. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User talk:Yoshario|Y]]'''oshario'''</font></span>[[ | I agree with NY.

:I think it means all ''new'' users can't edit the article (their account has to be a few days old first). I'll protect it now. Also, pertaining to your first question, "shit" ''is'' used in ''Conker's Bad Fur Day'', but I'm not sure if that's significant enough to warrant a redirect. Even so, not making it yourself is a smart move, as it might seem sorta shifty. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 18:32, 26 March 2009 (EDT) | :I think it means all ''new'' users can't edit the article (their account has to be a few days old first).

I wouldn't use that expletive around the wiki due to the fact that I expect we may very young users browsing this wiki and since a proposal passed that banned swearing. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User talk:Yoshario|Y]]'''oshario'''</font></span>[[ | I wouldn't use that expletive around the wiki due to the fact that I expect we may very young users browsing this wiki and since a proposal passed that banned swearing. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User talk:Yoshario|Y]]'''oshario'''</font></span>[[File:Yoshi Mario Hat SM64DS.png|30px]] | ||

I say we delete this article because it is not a specific topic, item, ect. If unneeded objects are getting articles then we should have an article on air since that actually plays a role in some games, sort of works like an item, it allows Mario to be underwater without drowning of lack of air since it replenishes his air intake. | I say we delete this article because it is not a specific topic, item, ect.

I think this article is pointless, and it is a big target for vandals. Even with Semi-Protection, we can just merge the content with the WarioWare article and a user who is autoconfirmed can still vandalize it if they "secretly" act like a good user until autoconfirmation. It just doesn't seem like an appropriate page for a wiki like this. | I think this article is pointless, and it is a big target for vandals.

General consensus seems to be that the generic things (poop making insignificant appearances game mechanically or story-wise) take the back seat compared to Arty Wario's usage of it. One possible solution would be re-writing the article to focus more on just that, wouldn't it? The other appearances could be formatted as notes, or as smaller entries in a dedicated "appearances" section. {{User:Young Master Luma/sig}} 23:59, 4 March 2014 (EST) | General consensus seems to be that the generic things (poop making insignificant appearances game mechanically or story-wise) take the back seat compared to Arty Wario's usage of it.

:::Well, Arty Wario's article nearly perfectly explains what the Poop projectile does, as other projectiles he creates (which do not get their own articles for some reason). By the way, that's not a definition of a stub: a stub is an article that lacks sufficient information.

::::Of course - I should have mentioned that it might've been an article so insignificant that it might've been better merged with Arty Wario instead of mentioning "stub length". Right now it seems to parlty be a case of the Arty Wario information keeping everything else in the article, and everything else keeping the Arty Wario information in the article. {{User:Young Master Luma/sig}} 13:55, 5 March 2014 (EST) | |||
I think we should delete this article for the same reason we don't have a page for "bone", for example: it is the projectile of [[Dry Bones]], [[Dull Bones]], it is in the [[Snack Orb]], it has appeared in many minigames ([[Chomp Walker]], [[Throw Me a Bone]]), microgames, it appears as platforms in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', it is what many enemies are made of, it is an area in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', etc. Having all this ''almost completely unrelated'' information in one page would make it cluttered just like this page is.

:@MegaKoopa I wouldn't even say it's ''almost'' unrelated, it's all related in some way. The info all centers around the same character and his own series: Wario. The info is talking about its role in the micro games and it's use when Artsy Wario creates it. I mean we've got articles about items that explains the different uses it has ([[Green Shell]], [[Mushroom]] etc), this is no different. Seems legit enough to me. {{User:Tails777/sig}} | |||
::Whereas Green Shells and Mushrooms are ''Mario'' objects that have appeared in numerous games with a similar function, poop is just a generic item that has appeared in some microgames and happens to be one of Arty Wario's many projectiles. The biggest distinction between poop and Mushrooms and Green Shells is that the Mushroom and Green Shell are a ''Mario'' object while poop definitely isn't a ''Mario'' nor a ''Wario'' object. There isn't a huge variety of poop either, nor does any poop have a proper name (such as Flying Fire Poop). It's like [[Pizza]] getting its own article because of its appearances and its role (it's one of the many healing food items in ''Super Smash Bros.'') and it appeared in a lot of minigames). {{User:Mario/sig}} 21:19, 5 March 2014 (EST) | |||
