| This is an old page, from back before color variations were handled with as much consistency as they are nowadays. Anyways, this indeed is a color variation, with the SMW difference being "one moves and one doesn't," which is the same difference for [[Koco]]'s colors [[Bazza's Blockade|except when it isn't]]. The only source seemingly to indicate they're separate was ''Mario Mania'', which iirc had some pretty random splits in it. Anyways, this should probably be merged.

| "But we don't merge gold versions!" you might be thinking. Thing is, this is a different situation: here we have two inorganic colors for an inorganic object that has absolutely nothing to do with coins in the slightest. Furthermore, the "gold" enemies we split have "gold" in the JP name as well, while this has a mere parenthesized differentiator. Also, the only source in English to split them was a book that split all color variations.

| #{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Per my thoughts above.
| |
| #{{User|LinkTheLefty}} With the possible exception of the Bowser Monument, the current Bowser Statue article is about statues based on Bowser in general, which may or may not act as obstacles. With the golden ones in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' (one of which, as mentioned below, is also generically called a Bowser statue in a mission title), this article does the same, except with an arbitrary coloration characteristic. Therefore, it makes sense to treat it as a color variant.
| |
| | |
| ===Oppose===
| |
| #{{User|TheDarkStar}} - Per Alex.
| |
| <del>#{{User|Toadette the Achiever}}I would actually argue that each different variant of Chargin' Chuck also be split, seeing as how we deal with the different variants of [[Shy Guy]].</s>
| |
| | |
| <s>{{User|Alex95}} - I'll say no because of their actions in ''Super Mario World''. As far as I recall, the regular statues don't move, aside from the occasional turning on their pedestal. They may be similar statues in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', but their role in ''World'' is what's making me hesitant.</s>

| @Alex95 The difference is they jump forward, which is no more different than the various Cheep Cheep or Chargin' Chuck behaviors (alliteration unintended). Also, as I mentioned somewhere else, an SMA4 level has both SMW Bowser Statues ''and'' the SMB3 Bowser Statue in the same room, so behavioral differences seem kind of moot in that light.

| :Do the statues that are in the same room act differently or similarly? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:28, February 12, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::Hang on, misremembered. It's the same level, but the SMB3 ones are in one room and the SMW ones in another. Regardless, they each act like their originator. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 11:39, February 12, 2020 (EST)

| Not all the golden enemies are exclusively related to coins or the Gold Mario form, however. For example, because golden versions of Goomba and Bullet Bill existed prior to ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', they get coverage on the Gold Goomba and Gold Bullet Bill pages, not to mention a few other non-RPG golden enemies have their own articles like Gold Mini Slump Bird, Gold Chomp, and Golden Gummit.

| :Gold Bullet Bill in Sunshine ''did'' relate to coins, and the others (usually for ''Mario Party'' minigames, and an SMRPG one as well in Goomba's case) had to do with extra points. Either way, JP name and how the ''Mania'' guide works in general are the clincher I feel.

| @Toadette Problems with ''that'' are that it leaves no "base" version for the game (the most basic behavior has the moniker of "Lookout Chuck") and that two versions don't have names in the source (the diagonal counterpart to Clappin' Chuck and the whistle-blower). And of course, this is additionally comparable to the Grinders in SMW2, which had like 6 behaviors and 3 names.

| :@Doc: Those are explicitly no longer credited as different versions of Ukikis. This has yet to be done with the Bowser Statues. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 16:57, February 17, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::Well, if we're considering the SMO ones in this article, it has, as they're called "Bowser Statues" in at least one Power Moon name. Also, can you tell me what source "explicitly" had those no longer relevant names? YNI didn' have an English guide, was i a YWW thing or something?
