Thought I might give a heads-up before going on another editing spree; I'm going to be replacing links from Template:Super Mario Bros. 3.

^Done, all that's left is for an admin to delete the redirect

It wasn't even finished... but no matter, I just went and fished it off and deleted the redirect.

My proposal has had a bunch of repercussions that I never thought of.

That's the danger of open-ended proposals - now you see why I didn't support even though I agree that a lot of names could do for regulation. Of course, a lot of the changes had to (or should) be made eventually anyway (replacing crappy names, merging various templates, fixing orders, etc.), so as long as we give ourselves wiggle room, it should work out for the better.

  • I would've preferred if the main post of the topic had goals and tasks to do right at the start to reduce the confusion immensely.
  • I went in and thought: "That's the whole list?", and then I scrolled down and saw Walkazo's list and got confused.
  • While I was tackling Template:Gadd by replacing it with Template:Gaddgets, I didn't realize the content has to be merged to Template:MPA until Walkazo just halted me in time.
  • I like projects that have structure, and a clear goal line, and how to reach it; those that don't have it will lose track of progress.

I've never seen an editing pattern like this...

Hahaha! It's as if you guys are bots yourselves! I barely appear on that because I took more than on maintaining the pages themselves than just replacing the template name.
 
Perhaps the first post can be edited, with templates we decided not to move slashed out, and moved templates being checked off with "done" messages or something (or both types could be taken out or moved to separate lists or whatever).

Like I said, I'm busy. Feel free to edit my post yourself.

Actually, I was literally just about to do them (been planning to since yesterday)...

OK, then sorry to butt in. (I kind of announced last-minute)
 
Well, I didn't announce it yet, so it's not like you could've known.

Also, I added some more templates to the list, and upon further reflection, it's also probably fine to abbreviate things like "Hotel Mario" and "Mario Pinball Land" after all, since this is going really fast, and we have worse templates already ("WBFB", anyone?).
 
I'm gonna take Template:JBK, i merged it (sort of). Now since walkazo is great with Navigation templates stuff. could you check this

EDIT:Barrel Blast need to be merged with DKBB not moved to
