The Japanese name for these levels is "[[Slider]]," a name that is also used in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' to describe [[Tall Trunk's Big Slide]] and the [[Rolling Coaster Galaxy]]. Should the coverage be expanded to include them as well? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 16:10, March 12, 2020 (EDT)

:Additionally, the minigame [[Bobsled Run]] from MP1 and MP2 has this name, but not the music in either iteration.
