This article is primarily linked to in citations of officially-licensed material like the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia or The Art of Super Mario Odyssey. However, the attributed publisher within the texts themselves is "Dark Horse Books" which is the actual arm of Dark Horse that publishes physical books, as opposed to comics and graphic novels. It may seem like a negligible difference, but the difference between "Dark Horse Comics" and "Dark Horse Books" is the same one between "Prima Games" (the specific publishing branch that is attributed in-text and published the guidebooks) and "Penguin Random House" (the parent company of Prima Games for most of the history relevant to our wiki).
Until the day they publish officially-licensed graphic novels for Mario, it would be more accurate and straightforward to just link to an article named "Dark Horse Books."
- Rename to "Dark Horse Books."
- Do nothing.
