I feel that the article for Sonic the character should be the article titled Sonic the Hedgehog and the Sonic series should be labelled as Sonic the Hedgehog (franchise), as this is what is done for Mario and his franchise. 2601:243:C901:4600:4006:2415:2EF7:D279 (talk) 01:49, 8 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
The current title was set by consensus in 2016. Personally I don’t think consistency with Mario counts for much, as for any multimedia franchise the due weight of the named character versus the franchise as a whole can be completely different. Although gauging that can be difficult, I’ll point out this is an article with over 550 citations, which should say a lot about the noteworthiness of the franchise.

Yes, I said something similar to one of this IPs similar suggestions elsewhere; different articles have different disambiguations for different reasons. But those reasons override observations like "Mario does it differently". Sergecross73msg me01:20, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not done I believe it's because we don't have any sales figures for those titles. For this edit request to work, you'd have to provide the figures and reliables sources that prove them. Sergecross73msg me15:05, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
