Is Mantas singular or plural? Both are used in the article, but if it's the latter, this page should be Preying Manta. Phoenix Rider 18:44, 11 July 2009 (EDT)

Definitely plural, I'll change the article (you can move it and delete this page) - Marioguy1 (talk)
Additionally, shouldn't it be spelled "Praying Manta" instead of "Preying Manta"(as it is a pun on Praying mantis)? Someone should check the instruction booklet to see how it is spelled. YosharioYoshi holding Mario's Cap artwork from Super Mario 64 DS.
I don't have the game (or the booklet) but on google, one of the sites says it's preying, should we trust it> - Marioguy1 (talk)
What site is it? Not all sources are reliable. YosharioYoshi holding Mario's Cap artwork from Super Mario 64 DS.
[1] does that help? - Marioguy1 (talk)
That seems like it could be an error on the author's part. Phoenix Rider 20:00, 11 July 2009 (EDT)

Based on my findings at Wikipedia Japan, the jellyfish enemy that appears in SMG and SMG2 is not a Preying Mantas but a different enemy called ユラリ Yurari. Should this be made into it's own page? Vent 14:45, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

I also think Jammyfish should have a separate page. They are clearly not the same enemy. BubbleRevolution (talk) 16:13, 30 July 2015 (EDT)

French name source[edit]

Where have you found the french name? I putted a citation needed, since the source is unknown. The one who putted it isn't active since a few years (i checked the history), and there's no source for it. Maybe it's on a specific french guide? --Green Yoshi FanOfYoshi 12:24, 29 October 2018 (EDT)
