If the unique Japanese name is anything to go by, the ones in the ''Galaxy'' games are derived from Jammyfish, and not the other way around, and ergo, may need split. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 03:15, 22 March 2018 (EDT)

:I agree. This idea is further matched by the filenames, where Jammyfish is <tt>Jellyfish</tt> and Jellyfish is <tt>JellyfishElectric</tt>, so it's most definitely the intent here. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 03:42, 22 March 2018 (EDT)

Ok. During the occuring bee proposal, i'd like to start this. This page is essentially just a list of Jellyfishes. They don't have any relation with the real world Jellyfishes. But neither [[Jelectro]]s, [[Jellybeam]], [[Jammyfish]], and some other Jellyfish articles, and we have those split. Admittedly, [[Preying Mantas]] have a generic Japanese name.

#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} If the (big) ''Yoshi's Story'' bees get split, then it only makes sense to do the same with jellyfish. As for ''Super Mario Galaxy'', see the above discussion (additionally, Jammyfish shouldn't be the derived species of a generic, real world subject).

#{{User|Doomhiker}} The SMG series Jellyfish's Japanese name calls them Big Electric Jammyfish, clearly intending them to be a parent species of Jammyfish, a non-generic enemy. As for the YS Jellyfish, they also have a non-generic Japanese name and in this case they look quite different from other generic Jellyfish (It should also be noted that [[Jellyfish (Donkey Kong Jungle Beat)]] are split from regular Jellyfish, and that they also have a unique look and Japanese name even if their English name comes from a internal file that was most likely called "Jellyfish" for convenience).
#{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} Per my thoughts in the above section and on similar proposals.

I honestly don't see this proposal as necessary, at least in regard to the ''YS'' jellyfish; the bee proposal is on the verge of passing, and the frog one already passed. I would have just waited for the bee proposal to pass; the precedent that would be set by those two proposals would justify splitting the ''YS'' jellyfish and clams without having to wait two whole weeks, since the reasons for splitting them are exactly the same. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 21:43, 28 January 2019 (EST)
:@7feetunder there might be a disagreement if that happens (case in point: Bazooka Mario). --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 05:19, 29 January 2019 (EST)
::Yeah no one is convincing me that Japanese names in of themselves necessitate splits. I don't see the reason to oppose this time though. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:56, 1 February 2019 (EST)
