The result of the move request was: Move. Jafeluv ( talk) 03:11, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
Princess Daisy (Mario) → Princess Daisy (character) I am requesting a RM as per declined G6 (technical deletion in prevision of an uncontroversial move) of Princess Daisy (character) ( see discussion); rename from an over-specific disambiguator when a broader one is preferred by WP:NCDAB, specifically to avoid proper nouns and using more generic "classes". Simple correction of the mistake done by the creator of this article when he converted from a redirect; he simply seems to have been unaware of the guidelines and converted the wrong redirect into a full article.

Found here. Wasn't sure if this was worth mentioning, as it's a very specific instance in the German translation of a game, but I thought I'd throw it out there and see what others think.-- YoureAGhostBaby ( talk) 00:36, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
This source, linked in the header, doesn't return any hits for Daisy or Super Mario Land. Telemachus12389 ( talk) 09:48, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
I don't know if it's important but I think her change of skin tone should be notable because of it changing throughout the series going from tan to light to tan again. RoseWaterSkies ( talk) 17:44, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Want to get it dealt with as people are doubting its WP:GNG for months. Grandmaster Huon ( talk) 05:26, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
I already tried to reach out to the admin who reverted the edits in question and got no response after a couple days. I've explained the reason for removing the first source under the negative receptions paragraph is due to the article currently insinuating the IGN article was a simple ranking of the characters on a scale of 1-10. It's specifically about ranking the female Mario characters on how worth rescuing by Mario they are. So, it isn't what it seems, currently. It's more convoluted than simply ranking the characters on some numeral scale. On top of that, the article is filled with incorrect information like referring to Daisy as, "Super Smash. Bros.' Daisy" at a time when she wasn't even playable in the series yet. It also includes Daisy's image under Pauline's section. And finally, it specifically was written to center around asking readers to take the given rankings as a means to cast their votes between the characters. The voting system is a dead link and no such results are even given.
It's for all of the above reasons I tried to remove this source. Additionally, I tried to point out another negative source referring to Daisy as Peach with brown hair was erroneous because Daisy's hair is officially orange according to Nintendo, and in my personal opinion the character is plainly a redhead. This was also reverted.
Finally, I had added a source concerning her reception in relation to Luigi. This was removed, being sighted as unreliable, which I find odd and without reason because it's from DualShockers, a gaming website established around 2009. I'd appreciate any additional comments or input here, as the admin who disagreed with me on all this has not returned comment for further discussion.
