Talk:Mona's Pets

Merge the individual Yum Yums' pages here?

The bear's page is tiny, 4.1 and 4.2 only appear in one game, and the elephant, pig and monkey almost always appear together. Considering characters like Kat and Ana, Dribble and Spitz, Ashley and Red don't have separate pages, I think it would make sense to merge these too. Blinker (talk) 09:24, November 20, 2022 (EST)

Merge all Yum Yums here

Okay, the idea is to merge the pages Mona's Elephant, Mona's Pig, Mona's Monkey, 4.1 and 4.2, and Mona's Bear here.

• The Yum Yums are pretty much always seen together, and they function more as a group than as individual characters for the most part.
• The pages for 4.1 and 4.2 and Mona's Bear are really short, and the others' aren't that long either, so the resulting merged article shouldn't be overly long.
• Their Japanese names are basically "Monaers No. 1", "Monaers No. 2", "Monaers No. 3", "Monaers No. 4.1", "Monaers No. 4.2", and "Monaers No. 5", emphasizing their... "groupness" rather than their individuality.
• Other characters like Kat & Ana and Dribble & Spitz are merged, and those are main, even playable characters.

This page will also be renamed "The Yum Yums", as that is how the name is presented in-game "Mona's Pets", the most recent name, used in Get It Together! (thanks, Hewer).

7. Mario (talk) Most of these creatures are generically named anyway (with 4.1 and 4.2 referring to just the collective 4th members), and the first three animals have highly overlapping page content, so the merge shouldn't have too much issues.

1. SeanWheeler (talk) Honestly, I don't really like it when individual characters share a page.

Comments

Now that I'm looking a bit more into this (that is, looking at the cast rolls on YouTube), I'm noticing that the "Yum Yums" name only seems to be used in Twisted! and Touched!, and it's technically "The Yum Yums", so this might need renaming. But also, in Touched!, the names appear listed as "The Yum Yums", then "4.1", then "4.2", implying "The Yum Yums" only refers to the original three? But that's probably because "The Yum Yums" also replaced the first three's names in Twisted!, where they were the only ones. It's kinda confusing, but hopefully the merge is still okay. But is it okay to rename to "The Yum Yums" too, or do I need to edit the proposal to include that? Blinker (talk)

No, I think it's okay amend the proposal for that small bit. The reason we discourage editing proposal is concerning large edits that rewrite the entire intent of the proposal. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:50, April 22, 2023 (EDT)

Alright, thanks. Blinker (talk) 17:36, April 22, 2023 (EDT)

The most recent name for the group seems to be "Mona's Pets" from Mona's intro cutscene in Get It Together (capitalised as such, so no more a generic name than the animals' names themselves). Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 07:16, April 23, 2023 (EDT)

Oh, you're right! I just looked up the Japanese version too, and it uses the "Monaers" name there too! Sorry, I'll correct the proposal, again. Blinker (talk) 07:31, April 23, 2023 (EDT)

Perhaps a silly question, would "The Yum Yums" be a redirect just in case? ~Camwood777 (talk) 15:15, April 25, 2023 (EDT)

Good point! Yes, it would. Thanks for the reminder! Blinker (talk) 17:26, April 25, 2023 (EDT)
