Article split

The original article was a disjointed mess trying to talk about three different video games at the same time. I instead split the article, so now there's a page for the arcade game and a page for the Famicom title. These two games are more notable than the computer games. There are some sources for the computer game, and if someone wishes to they can make a separate page for that. Harizotoh9 (talk) 17:03, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly object to your recent changes. The games under discussion are very different, with the PC game being of special notation because it was released directly in conjunction with the film. Unless you are prepared to make a separate article for the PC release, then I must Undo your deletion (only once in protest; no further Undo will be made).

Well, the solution might be to make a third article for the PC game. I know that it was reviewed in various PC gaming magazines at the time. Also there's this Hobby Consolas overview of all three games. That should be enough for a start. Harizotoh9 (talk) 15:51, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Willow (Capcom arcade game) → Willow (arcade game) – was well where it was. In ictu oculi (talk) 18:51, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:40, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@In ictu oculi: A message further up in this page seems to say that there are 3 videogames called "Willow" or similar. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:43, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@In ictu oculi: About moving Willow (NES) to Willow (video game) and Willow (Capcom arcade game) to Willow (arcade game) :: better get this matter discussed properly. Those 2 pages are currently at Willow (video game) and Willow (Capcom arcade game). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:55, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No strong preference the article was stranded at (arcade), as the result of previous moving around. This seems to be the only arcade game, but I'm not expert on the topic and was merely cleaning up. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:35, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In ictu oculi if so can you consider withdrawing this request and saving the community some time ? --DBig Xrayᗙ 15:59, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I said no strong preference as to the options, but it couldn't stay at (arcade) and not sure why it should be at (Capcom arcade game) but happy to withdraw and leave it at (Capcom arcade game) if you feel that is better. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:35, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
