::::::I also have a question for you, explain how the information in this article can't be put in the Great Maze article? None of you have yet to explain how the article is better itself than in being in the Great Maze.

::::::And why you're at it, learn how to argue better. Each of your posts basically consist of unsupported claims of this being "the community's consensus", claiming yourself as correct (with a very poor and unsupported argument) while I'm wrong and should accept the view of three users as the view of the community, and how Tabuu is the "final boss" and therefore gets an article on something that every other boss has but don't have an article. <span style="font-family:Vijaya; font-size:12pt">[[User:Garo108|<span style="color:brown">Garo</span>]][[User talk:Garo108|<span style="color:lightgreen">108</span>]]</span> 11:50, 9 November 2010 (EST)

Just because there are "accepted standards" and "things are the way they are" doesn't mean people aren't allowed to question them, although pretty much everyone hates it when such happens, because it leads to these kinds of arguments where there's no real proof on either side. So, here's how things look right now:
 
*Currently, there is a "Tabuu's Residence" page. It's almost stub-size, though it is not a stub.
*Like Final Destination, Tabuu's Residence:
**...is a stage by the definition of the term.
**...is the location where a final boss is fought.
*Unlike Final Destination, Tabuu's Residence:
**...can be argued to be part of a larger whole (the Great Maze), though it is not clear whether it is part of the Great Maze or simply "next to" it.
**...is, like most other boss stages in the Subspace Emissary, connected to other stages (as in, you can get to/from it through a door).
**...is almost identical in shape and size to other boss stages, making it less unique.
**...is viable as a subsection of a page.
*Most established editors claim that the fact that this is a seperate page is good enough to validate it as deserving one ([[wikipedia:Grandfather clause|grandfather clause]]). This reasoning isn't the best, and could be seen as an "excuse" for not wanting change.
*Another popular claim is that "final boss stages get articles". I think this is more of a coincidence than a "standard". Final Destination is a playable stage in SSBM and SSBB, so it gets a page without question. It's less clear in SSB64, but it's still its own stage, and non-playable stages get articles (like [[DUMMY]]). So all three Final Destination incarnations get a stage page, and it's not because they're final boss stages. So that argument is weak.
 
So, I say this page gets merged with [[The Great Maze]]. The only thing unique about it is that Tabuu is fought there, and that's not really the best way to claim it deserves a page as shown above. The other consistency-implementing option is to make seperate pages for all boss stages, and that's a bigger change than just deleting this one.

:Looking at all this opposition, I can see that the only reason I didn't want this deleted is because of how popular it is and I'm opposed to this kind of change. Merge it.--<span style="font-family:Forte">[[User:Megatron1|<span style="color:maroon">Mega</span>]][[User talk:Megatron1|<span style="color:silver">Tron1</span>]][[User:Megatron1/Laughology|<span style="color:blue">XD</span>]]</span>[[File:Decepticon.png|20px|:p]] 21:00, 9 November 2010 (EST)
