Literally the only reason this character has a page is because they are friends with [[Gary (Super Paper Mario)|another goomba with a throwaway name]]. They don't look different, they don't act different, they have minimal story relevance at best and they don't even have a name. [[MarioWiki:Minor NPCs|our policy]] for minor characters discourages page creation if they lack a name, and even if this guy did, we don't cover every single X-naut on a unique page because one of them (in a scene where a hoard of them were present) was named "Johnson". Not to mention the big MPA character merge that happened a few months ago which merged most MPA characters to their species articles despite much more relevance than this Goomba and official (albeit generic) names. So why does this random Goomba deserve a separate page when those others I mentioned can't?

#{{User|Ahemtoday}}: For consistency with the MPA merge. Though, actually, I think this info might be best on the Gary article, though I have no clue how to incorporate it there.

#{{User|Tails777}} Per all.
#{{User|Tails777}} Per all.
#{{User|Swallow}} I don't really agree with Ahemtoday's idea of covering this in Gary's article, though it would be suitable for the main Goomba article.
#{{User|Killer Moth}} Per all.
#{{User|7feetunder}} Per proposal.
#{{User|TheFlameChomp}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Wikiboy10}} This is just about a throwaway generic character. This is the Koopa (''Mario Party DS'') situation all over again.
#{{User|Camwood777}}: Per everyone else, our solitary request is this man totally deserves an archive on BJAODN. At the very least, the fact this somehow went uncontested for about half a decade is amusing enough, even if this doesn't deserve a mainspace article at all.
#{{User|Ray Trace}} any info here can be covered in goomba's article so whatever
