This proposal is about merging Bill Gates with Shitamachi Ninjō Gekijō. It's true that what appears in Super Mario media generally gets its own article. However, the only time Bill Gates ever made an appearance in Super Mario media is in the February 20, 1996 broadcast of Shitamachi Ninjō Gekijō, which has not been archived and/or dumped; not to mention, it's a visual novel, not a video game where he has an interactive role or a role in a television skit or episode. Then if you look at the History section of the Bill Gates article, it's basically just a rehash of what's on the Shitamachi Ninjō Gekijō's February 20th section, because the entire broadcast is about him.
I'll ask another question for one's consideration: if Bill Gates has an article, why doesn't Windows 95? If the latter were an article, what would be the justification for merging it? The same reason could probably apply to the Bill Gates article.
Also, if we do merge the article, I think we can keep the Humans category, but I'll leave that for editors to decide.
Proposer: Super Mario RPG (talk)

Support
- Super Mario RPG (talk) As proposer.
Oppose
- Hewer (talk) The lack of archiving for this thing doesn't change the fact that Bill Gates made a major appearance in a piece of Mario media. This article feels just as justified as all the historical figures that showed up in Mario's Time Machine. And the difference with Windows 95 is that it doesn't actually appear in the skit (to my knowledge), whereas "Bill Gates" does.
