The result was merge to Beetlejuice (video game). While the merge target is currently a redirect from an incomplete disambiguation, I hope the participating and interested editors can do the needful in structuring out the merge. (non-admin closure) Lourdes 05:28, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

PROD'd with the rationale: Unlike the other two Beetlejuice games, this one received very little coverage. I was unable to find anything besides the stuff listed on MobyGames, which leaves a lot to be desired. PROD was removed by the article creator with the reasoning being this was the result of an article split, and I even managed to find cover art for this subject. I still believe the video game fails WP:GNG unless more sources can be found. Anarchyte (work | talk) 04:29, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Merge – All three Beetlejuice games are stubs and have a handful of RS reviews each out there, should 100% be merged into a single Beetlejuice (video game) article for the three platforms. In fact I'd go ahead and go it myself right now if it wasn't for the fact there is an open AfD I'd rather not shortcircuit. Unsure why Steel1943 decided split such a skinny stub into even more skeletal ones. Ben · Salvidrim!  13:27, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per Salvidrim! as an alternative to deletion. For what it's worth, the reason why I performed the split was after seeing how this revision of the original combined article was confused in itself. The article was a combination of the 1991 NES game and the 1990 MS-DOS game with the 1992 Game Boy game being a separate article during the entirety or majority of the article referenced in the diff's existence. That, and more than likely, all of these articles should be combined into a yet-to-exist Beetlejuice (franchise) article, but that may be a conversation for another day.

  • FWIW, I also support a merge. I would withdraw it, but the the rules for withdrawing aren't the easiest to understand. Anarchyte (work | talk) 23:58, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
