I'd rather split one page for a good reason, then merge several for a decent one.

@Alex95: I think we should merge back enemies that only have Paper forms in the first place. So if Tower Power Pokey has only a paper form, Paper Tower Power Pokey should be merged back to Power Tower Pokey and redirected there. I don't think there's much point into having two articles about pretty much same character. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 17:15, 17 November 2017 (EST)

Merge into Sombrero Guy

Proposal.svg This talk page section contains an unresolved talk page proposal. Please try to help and resolve the issue by voting or leaving a comment.

Current time: Saturday, May 18, 2024, 15:26 GMT

Yep, I cancelled the other proposal. It seems that this is the only article on a paper enemy that has never appeared outside the Paper Mario series. Look at Tower Power Pokey. He has only ever appeared in Sticker Star and Paper Jam. We don't have an article on Paper Tower Power Pokey for this reason. Sombrero Guy has only appeared in Sticker Star, Paper Jam, and Color Splash. So why do we have this page? I propose we merge this page into Sombrero Guy. Who's with me?

We actually don't have an article on Paper Tower Power Pokey, which is one of the main reasons why we should merge. But if this proposal fails, we're also splitting Paper Tower Power Pokey and Tower Power Pokey. I don't exactly like that idea, but it's better than the way it is now. -YFJ (talk · edits) 17:21, 17 November 2017 (EST)
