Okay, so the colors of the walls are all well and good when talking about [[Bowser's Dark Matter Plant]], but other than that, we've got a problem here: if you look at this pic from the end of the first mission in the [[Rightside Down Galaxy]], you can see that, not only do purple walls not pull [[Mario]] upward here, but the gray walls have also been completely eliminated. This point aside, the Types of Walls section says nothing about how red walls also pull Mario upward, not just purple walls, which happened even in many areas of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', before this galaxy ever appeared in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Though this is easily fixable, how do we say that purple walls can either pull Mario upward or to the left, replacing either red walls or gray walls respectively, without having confusion as to which walls we're talking about?

Perhaps it would be better to simply remove that section. All it's trying to do is find a correlation between colors and directions when there really is no clear correlation.--{{User|Knife}} 09:55, 11 March 2011 (EST)

:I know, I'm not saying it's a bad section, I was just trying to bring to light the fact that the colors of the walls don't always universally apply...

I'm conflicted on whether to count these background walls in the [[Center of the Galaxy]] and [[Secret 2D Treasure]] sub-areas. While they have novel appearances, they serve the same purpose of marking the extents of gravities in 2D. However, the walls in the latter sub-area feel more tenuous to me. They double, and arguably mainly act, as the safe area that Mario must stay within. Their cloud decorations are also much more imprecise at marking the gravity boundaries: the flip just before the pictured planetary section is indicated with a single inverted cloud, with no change in wall color like in every other case. And if these are gravity fields, then surely so is the final upside-down section with the Power Moon—but we can't just say that any place with an atmosphere and properly rotated clouds or bushes is a gravity field. The sections before and after the planet-walking challenge are consistent in behavior with many undecorated 8-bit areas throughout the game, so claiming that the clouds make these into gravity fields doesn't feel right. These few walls are far more fluid between mechanics and aesthetics, so I struggle to pin them down as counting or not.
