This thread clearly shows that there are two kinds of people on this wiki: Those who think Cactus should be separated, and those who are wrong.

That's a joke. Please don't hate me.

I wonder if PopCap realizes what they've done...

Anyway, I don't have time to read every response here, but my argument for Cactus being separated is as follows:

In each game, Cactus has a completely different use and strategy. Sure, they both shoot spikes and change size, but the reason for doing these things is completely different. For example: Stallia and Perfume-shroom both create puffs of perfume. The purposes of each of these perfumes are completely different. But they both create perfume. So should we merge them? No! Slowing zombies and charming dinosaurs have nothing to do with each other. Neither does popping balloons and stabbing zombies.

Not to mention that the page's merge is reeeeeally forced. You can clearly see that each section is awkwardly sliced in half in order to contain accurate information about each game. If we separate, yes, there may be some redundancy in appearance and etymology, but it's a very small price to pay for organizing these messy sections into two organized collections of sections. It's a lot like factoring in math: (3x + 5)(32y - 3) is much more organized than 96xy - 9x + 160y - 15. And for the redundancy of certain sections, we can create templates for use on both pages, like for example, that contains the entire section.
