The plant is now a completely different entity that has enough content to support it's own page. Why, for the sake of the arguement, does PvZ1 and PvZ2 Pea-shooter remain merged after this rule? STRATEGIC IMPLICATION. They are both used in the exact same niche (cheap starter tower), exact same attack method along with the same weakness (AoE-less for example).

The Strategic Value is constant, and having both iterations in the same page would cause less clutter than the aforementioned Cactus and Balloon Zombie.

With the new abilities of both, the strategy needed to combat/use effectively is drastically different and therefore can constitute a new page.



 "It would  still  be easier and less time-consuming to keep the two articles together to explain the differences more concisely."

And how is that? Most pages that concern two massively differing iterations will have sections clearly split between the first and second games. See again, the Cactus article shows this the most.

And when split, what effect will it have? Dividing a large, relatively bloated page into two normal sized pages that would have navigation to allow for maximum efficiency for those who are looking for information.



"As for the primal plants..."

They will remain separate. They have different qualities and effects that differentiate themselves from their "Modern Counterparts" They create new strategy and have different use. Other than aesthetics, they share little to no correlation between each other.



"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."

This quote needs to be here to finish off my counter argument, as it shows the bias exerted by Brain in this post. Labeling something as "just to stupid and pathetic" to explain why not to put effort into more articles is LAZYNESS. Splitting articles requires effort, but in long-term provides more accuracy, clarity and ease of use to those wanting information.
