This category lists places from both Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins and Mario Party 2, as if these two Mario Lands were the same place. They're not. Since both Mario Lands are unrelated one-off locations, game-specific categories can cover them just fine. This is a category without a purpose.

  1. Camwood777 (talk) Instead, I feel like we should split the two; one for the articles related to SML2, and one for the articles related to MP2.

Comments[edit]

There's technically a proposal that already calls for its deletion. While it relates more specifically to categories that only cover a given location's characters, it may also be applicable here. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 16:38, 9 August 2017 (EDT)

I'm honestly not seeing what that proposal has to do with this one. That proposal specifically pertained to residents of a given place, which is not the same thing as categorizing different parts of a major region. For instance, Category:Delfino Locations lists all places on Isle Delfino, which aren't necessarily from Super Mario Sunshine (e.g. Delfino Square, Delfino Pier, Peach Beach) or exclusive to it (e.g. Delfino Plaza). This category, however, not only fails that test, it doesn't even focus on one specific Mario Land, but two completely different places that happen to be named that.

I must point out that this should've followed this proposal but we somehow overlooked it. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:33, 15 August 2017 (EDT)
