Cactus gets to attack THREE zombies at once instead of just ONE at a time? THAT'S VERY DIFFERENT!! Ha-ha, no. Oh, but instead of stretching up, they duck down! Yeah, so? Is that even strategically reliable? It actually appears that a ducked Cactus is weaker than Spikeweed despite costing more sun. This would theoretically mean that Torchwood is different for not giving peas AoE power or Puff-shroom is different for having a timer.
 * I agree that these should not be classified as characters (hence why I support using gender-neutral pronouns even for things like Ladder Zombie and Bikini Zombie whose genders are unambiguous). That said, this would be inconsistent with every other PvZ2 plant, since the PvZ2 plant is meant to be a returning plant. Splitting them would suggest that said plants are one and not the same.
 * It would still be easier and less time-consuming to keep the two articles together to explain the differences more concisely. As for the primal plants, guess what? Said information has also been transferred where necessary and abridged otherwise, as is the case when Potato Mine's article lists Swiss Family Robinson as inspiration. Also, is it really that hard to make an internal link to a blog on the website let alone this wiki(a)? I have more grammatical nitpicks I could do, like how you said "a disambiguation," but that would be off-point. :3
 * Cactus not countering Balloon Zombie may either be seen as:
 * an oversight on PopCap's end, a.k.a. not intended despite users here going about it as if it was deliberate, or
 * an attempt to avoid alienating players who don't own the requisite counters, which would be Cactus and Homing Thistle, both of which are premium plants. Homing Thistle being a gem-bought premium plant does not count, since it could very well take absurd amounts of time to obtain the plant for newer players.

And no, Balloon Zombie and Newspaper Zombie should not separated. The former is too fundamentally similar to be split, and second is just stupid and pathetic to begin with.

To quote Wayside School on this one,

"The easiest way isn't always the best way."

The thing is, while Torchwood and Puff-shroom do get changes, they still serve the same basic purpose. Cactus doesn't. We don't know if this is an oversight or not. We can't use "mights" when running a wiki. We have to stick with what we have unless confirmed otherwise.
