Merge relevant information to Nintendo GameCube. As an aside, 'warp pipe' redirects to this article. Seeing as 'warp pipe' is a plausible search term, a redirect might be in order. -- Jelly Soup (talk) 08:18, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Further, while it may not be relevant to the AfD process, interested editors might find it interesting that a disambiguation page for the term 'warp pipe' was redirect to the aforementioned article. -- Jelly Soup (talk) 08:21, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Comment - I'm [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=wn&q=%22warp+pipe%22 seeing] a bunch of stuff come up, though I cannot and will not vouch for any for the sake of WP:RS which is what is required for WP:N. Also, Warp pipe should probably be redirected to Mario (series)#Recurring gameplay elements... --Izno (talk) 01:39, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Merge for reasons above. -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^T ^C 03:19, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Comment Expanding on Izno's thought, it might be better to just reestablish Warp Pipe as a disambiguation page and link it to Mario (series)#Recurring gameplay elements and Nintendo GameCube respectively. -- Jelly Soup (talk) 22:18, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

:Is there really any need for that? It seems a bit trivial, linking no full article. Haipa Doragon (talk • contributions) 00:06, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

::True. Just seems to me that Warp Pipe is a plausible search term for a few things. Might be better to just redirect Warp Pipe to the aforementioned section on Mario, and add a 'Warp Pipe redirects here, if you're etc, etc, etc' love note to the start of the section. -- Jelly Soup (talk) 21:57, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Stubify - Content is unverified, but external links contain two reasonable interviews. Propose stripping content down to stub, and leave open for expansion using these sources, per WP:V. Marasmusine (talk) 19:21, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
Keep, stubbify, etc. - Those news articles look pretty good. Merging is not a good idea because it's a separate entity whose scope differs from that of the Nintendo GameCube article. SharkD (talk) 01:06, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
