Talk:Elevator Key

Merge?

Note: These discussions were moved here from the former "Elevator Key (X-Naut)" talk page.

Do we really need this? We already have the Elevator Key page, which is an item of the same name in the same game. We can easily merge them together by saying "The Elevator Key is the name of two items found in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door." And then we'd go into each of them as usual. This would eliminate a short article and a stub by putting them in the same place. Redstar 14:29, 21 December 2009 (EST)

I think this would be useful, albeit they have the same item name and are in the same game, they don't look the same. They both serve the same purpose in both Riverside and the X-Naut base. Why not merge them? GigaMetalLuigi (talk)

Merge Elevator Key (X-Naut) with Elevator Key

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.

merge 3-0
They're essentially the same item. Also, look at the above discussion. We should do as Redstar says: "...easily merge them together by saying "The Elevator Key is the name of two items found in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. And then we'd go into each of them as usual."

These are so obviously different items that I don't think I need to detail exactly how they're different. Yes, they have the same name - should we also merge the tennis player and the golfer for having the same name? If you want to make the case that the keys aren't notable enough to deserve individual articles, there's an entire category that disagrees with you. If you want to make the point that these keys shouldn't have articles in the first place, this is not the place to do so (and take note that this has been attempted at least once before). Right now, let's make things consistent with the rest of the wiki and give these individual articles. One final point: You do not get rid of stubs by lumping a bunch of articles together. It's like trying to get rid of dust by sweeping it under a carpet; you've done nothing to actually alleviate the problem, you've only made it look like everything's fine.

(There is a case to be made for keeping the two X-Naut Fortress keys together, so that option will be presented alongside an option to split all three of them.)
