Split Vampire Wario and Vampire Bat Wario into separate articles

Settledproposal.svg This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit any of the sections in the proposal. If you wish to discuss the article, do so in a new header below the proposal.

NO QUORUM 2-0

Vampire Wario and Vampire Bat Wario (aka Bat Wario) are extremely similar, but as the latter suggests, Wario only gains the powers of his bat form. Moreover, the transformation in Wario Land 4 doesn't apply to two categories at the bottom of the current article: Shapeshifters and (necessarily) Undead, which is more of a fit for the Wario Land 3 incarnation. It's not too different from, say, Raccoon Mario and the original Tanooki Mario, where they have the same basic powers but one has an additional move over the other.

Support

  1. LinkTheLefty (talk) Per proposal.
  2. Mario (talk) I think a split is pretty much needed since being a vampire that can transform to a bat and being only a bat are two slightly different, but noteworthy things.

Oppose

Comments

Just for clarity, are we going to mention Vampire Bat Wario in both articles, or are we moving relevant information from Vampire Wario to Vampire Bat Wario? Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:23, 11 December 2014 (EST)

Basically, since Vampire Bat Wario is really a similar but separate form in Wario Land 4 (especially since there's no actual "vampiric" transformation involved like in Wario Land 3), the idea is to move the Wario Land 4 info away from the Wario Land 3/Dr. Mario 64 stuff. Although it may not be be a bad idea for the articles to have a note at the top saying that they're not to be confused with each other. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:01, 13 December 2014 (EST)
