::I mean, those are just cases of unconventional formatting being made conventional, so I can 100% understand the leeway given to those. ALL-CAPS writing is relatively typical in nameplates, labels, headings etc., so yeah, it was silly to have those MP3 subject names lifted in that exact state. "Mr.Kipper" is a result of a technical limitation, and Indo-European grammar dictates having words separated by space, so obviously that couldn't have been carried over like that either. Most importantly though, neither of these things lived on in material made for the games' reissues--and, hey! that's exactly what happened with CSF/BB. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 20:04, March 3, 2023 (EST)

: I would like to point out that we've fixed numerous errors that strategy guides have made such as Sledge Bros. being called Sumo Bros. for three New Super Mario Bros. games and Prima's New Super Mario Bros. 2 Strategy Guide calling Scuttlebugs "Spiders" and Crowbers "Ravens" and that latter one had a proposal that passed unanimously that Crowber was the actual name and not "Raven". Fixing an error that a manual made and the 3DS manual never bothered to correct for some odd reason is right up there with fixing Strategy Guide misnames.

::''Yet again'', those errors you point out were isolated and there's a considerable amount of material to contradict them. Scuttlebugs have been established as such in many games; a minor diversion in a guide is not enough to sway anyone on that. This level we're talking about has been given an English name in a grand total of only ''two'' (2) manuals, and said name is consistent across them. The situations that the precedents discussed on this talk page revolved around are simply not on par with this one. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 22:08, March 3, 2023 (EST)
