I saw that Wikipedia and Bulbapedia have it classified as a hybrid console not a home console. I changed it just in case Wikipedia and Bulbapedia are right, but somebody reverted my edits. I wonder if it is an error? I'm going to make a proposal for the change just in case Wikipedia and Bulbapedia are right (which are most cases is). {{User:Teh Other/sig}} | I saw that Wikipedia and Bulbapedia have it classified as a hybrid console not a home console.

#{{User|Hewer}} The way the article is right now already says that the Switch is a hybrid console but is marketed primarily as a home console, which I think is a perfect compromise. Also, as some general advice, "other wikis do it this way" is almost never a good argument because those wikis are completely separate from this one and have different rules. | #{{User|Hewer}} The way the article is right now already says that the Switch is a hybrid console but is marketed primarily as a home console, which I think is a perfect compromise.

Anybody else agree with some support that say that the Nintendo Switch is both a home console and a handheld console? {{User:Teh Other/sig}} | Anybody else agree with some support that say that the Nintendo Switch is both a home console and a handheld console? {{User:Teh Other/sig}} | ||
:I'd like to see the reasoning for the definitions made in Wikipedia and Bulbapedia; that they are simply present in those two wikis shouldn't necessarily mean we adopt them. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 17:30, July 22, 2022 (EDT) | |||
::@Teh Other There is a source in the opening paragraph which calls it a home console, which Nintendo seems to primarily market it as. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 19:06, July 22, 2022 (EDT) | |||

{{ProposalOutcome|passed|12-0|Split}} | |||
I think the Nintendo Switch Online section may be way too long. In this case, perhaps there's a possibility to split this page's "Nintendo Switch Online" section to the following: [[Nintendo Switch]], [[Nintendo Switch Online]]. | |||

'''Deadline''': August 12, 2023, 23:59 GMT | |||
===Support=== | |||
#{{User|GuntherBB}} Per proposal | |||
#{{User|Waluigi Time}} We already have [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] and [[Nintendo Network]] split, and the NSO section is more substantial than the latter page. I don't see why not. | |||
#{{User|DK Fan}} Switch Online has grown since launch. | |||
#{{User|Windy}} Per Waluigi Time. | |||
#{{User|Hewer}} Actually, per Waluigi Time, I didn't realise the previous online services were split and doing this makes sense for consistency. | |||
#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Per all, especially Waluigi Time. | |||
#{{User|ExoRosalina}} As agreed per Waluigi Time. | |||
#{{User|Swallow}} Wasn't sure at first but since we have articles for similar things, may as well with this. | |||
#{{User|PaperSplash}} Per all. | |||
#{{User|The Eggo55}} Per all | |||
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Per all. | |||
#{{User|Killer Moth}} Per all. | |||
===Oppose=== | |||
<s>#{{User|Hewer}} I definitely don't think it's long enough to justify splitting on length alone, and there isn't any other reason to split it.</s> | |||
===Comments=== | |||
I just have a broader question mark about the necessity of covering this service in detail. {{User:Mario/sig}} 20:53, July 29, 2023 (EDT) | |||
:I find myself having to link to it enough that I think it's worth it. It definitely qualifies as relevant to Mario, being necessary for online play in Mario games for the Switch, plus the [[Booster Course Pass]] is part of the Expansion Pack, and there's the various Mario games featured in its retro game libraries (which admittedly do have their own pages but it's good to have something to link to every time we say such and such is exclusive to Nintendo Switch Online and/or the Expansion Pack). Compare [[Nintendo eShop]] and the [[Virtual Console]], for example. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 16:41, July 30, 2023 (EDT) | |||
