Mario Teaches Typing 2
Hi! Was wondering can you help expand the Mario Teaches Typing 2 article? via the existing sources. Timur9008 (talk) 09:54, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- The sequel isn't notable, but I can try to help with the original. QuicoleJR (talk) 13:25, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
I was going to consider redirecting it to the parent article,a s I feel the reception is just far too weak on its own. But I noticed you'd been working on it a little last month too. Do you feel it meets notability, or would be better redirected for now?-- Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:29, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- I would say it appears to fail notability, although BOLDly redirecting it is very likely to be contested. QuicoleJR (talk) 16:33, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- I'll at least try it for now. I would rather avoid a AfD in case somehow later it does get notable coverage, as smaller subjects like these tend to suffer the worst from those.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:36, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
It seems like you are a Kirby fan or something, but have you got some sources for Meta Knight for its notability. If not, then it might be send off to AfD soon by editors. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 23:52, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- I think the article already proves his notability, but I found a few more sources on the web. I even found this source on Google Scholar. QuicoleJR (talk) 00:12, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Good article reassessment for Meta Knight

If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 14:21, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
RE: Recent revert
The article in question, as well as Laura Bow, were reverted by an IP who was also the sockpuppet of a banned user who keeps coming back through various IPs/socks. While I get your good intentions there, the policy is citing "if editors cannot agree" and pretty sure there's no other party involved in this particular mess. Per WP:BLAR, a revert does not mean "it must automatically go through AfD now to proceed".-- Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:39, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
