Yes, he ''is'' called "Manager Joe" once, but the fact can't be ignored that he has been given multiple aliases throughout the years, including "Pizza Joe" in ''WarioWare: Touched!'' and "Editor Joe" in ''Game & Wario''. He's even referred to as plain "Joe" in ''WarioWare Gold'', which already justifies a rename.

I question why the recurring minor supporting character from a ''Wario''-branded series has priority for the name "Joe" over a [[Joe (Mario Golf series)|three-time playable character]] from a ''Mario''-branded series. Shouldn't they both have identifiers? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 17:04, September 28, 2023 (EDT)

: Probably because the Mario Golf Joe is a really obscure character who has appeared in like two Golf games whereas this Joe has appeared in WarioWare games with a semi-major role. [[User:PrincessPeachFan|PrincessPeachFan]] ([[User talk:PrincessPeachFan|talk]]) 13:06, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

::The ''Mario Golf'' Joe was one of the four main characters in [[Mario Golf (Game Boy Color)|one of the games]], a hidden transfer character in [[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|another]], and a standard unlockable character in [[Mario Golf: Advance Tour|another]], being playable each time. The dog guy has never had any role other than "satellite non-player supporting character to Mona," so I don't see how it's more "major" other than appearing more recently.

:::The [[MarioWiki:Naming#Shared titles|naming priority policy]] doesn't say that priority is given to the more "major" subject, but rather the "clearly more popular" and "likely to be linked to or searched for", which would probably apply to WarioWare Joe seeing as he's appeared more recently and more often. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 12:08, December 2, 2023 (EST)
::::Um, why was the page suddenly moved with no consensus? {{User:Hewer/sig}} 02:53, December 4, 2023 (EST)
:::::Because I thought the proposal had passed. Sorry about that. This time, I'll start over with a proposal. {{User:GuntherBB/sig}} 12:12, December 28, 2023 (EST)
:::::Why would we have to move the page if it has both a redirection section, disambiguation, and the page itself automatically redirects to “Joe” anyway?? {{Unsigned|DrkLrdHmGree3856}} 3:51, January 11, 2024 (EST)
