Okay, I think that we've all been living under a misconception for far too long here: Light Blocks and Glow Blocks aren't quite the same thing. Like the [[Talk:Pink Coin (Super Mario Maker)#Split into Pink Coin (Super Mario Maker) and Pink Coin (Super Mario Run)|Pink Coin proposal]] I initiated over three-and-a-half years ago, these are two different objects with straightforward differences: Glow Blocks are portable, whereas Light Blocks are not. Plus, some Light Blocks can be activated by using [[? Switch]]es, a trait not shared by Glow Blocks. Given these two major differences, I'd say there's enough merit for a split.

Actually, "Glow Block" and "Light Block" are used in the trading card and the Prima guide for the same object in NSMBW (光るブロック), but the big ones are different, "Light Foothold" (光る足場). There's thus no English name basis for a split, since "Light Block" has been used interchangeably of both objects.

:Well, I was afraid of that... In that case, wouldn't the article's title be something like {{fake link|Light Block (portable)}}? {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 10:00, July 15, 2020 (EDT)
::I'd say this probably falls in line with [[MarioWiki talk:Naming#Make an exception to source priority for articles with identical names|source priority exception]], i.e. use the unique name despite it being lower priority.
