Mario Party 9[edit]

Wiki policy states that we use the info from the First the first English speaking region that it is relased in so we use Kamek not Magikoopa (although it should still be on the page but only as a reference to the fact that Kamek is called Magikoopa in America) Raven Effect (talk)

So this means it can't even mention that Magikoopa was in ONE version of MP9, it has to only be under kamek? No offense to you or mariowiki, but that's kind of stupid. It should still be able to mention on his page that, in one of the versions, that's what the character was called.

Policy is policy and like I said it should still be referenced but it should only say that in the American version of Mario Party 9 Kamek is renamed Magikoopa since Mario Party 9 hit Europe first so we use the names from that version of the game in order to preserve fairness since this is an international wiki not an American wiki it's all explained here [1] and here [2] Raven Effect (talk)
It's how we've done it ever since that proposal passed one article get's the large amount of infomation and the other one is just a reference because there isn't any reason to have two pages with the exact same info Raven Effect (talk)
