| I'm noticing that the Koopa Troopa Orb Shopkeepers ([[Kung Fu Koopa]] and [[Koopa Shepherdess]]) have their own pages, while the Shy Guy ones (Singing Shy Guy and Top Hat Shy Guy) and Goomba ones (Desert Goomba and Steel Goomba) do not. I'm not too familiar with the ''Mario Party'' games, what would be the best way to resolve this inconsistency?

| :::They're minor background characters that are dressed to fit the theme of the boards they're in. Kung Fu Koopas aren't just in shops, [[:File:Pagoda Peak - Mario Party 7.png|you can find one practicing sweet moves near the zone with the Duel Spaces]]. They get collectibles from [[Duty-Free Shop]], but they're just souvenirs related to the boards they're in; it's similar to getting, I don't know, ''Super Mario Odyssey'' collectibles. They shouldn't really get pages. {{User:Mario/sig}} 00:03, January 25, 2025 (EST)

| ::::Generally speaking, a character having a distinct appearance and name is enough to get a separate article (given the amount of ''Crafted World'' Shy Guy articles that are literally just a texture swap and a different file name...)

| :::::Not familiar with Crafted World, but from a glance of the article, at least those guys have distinct behaviors, gameplay behavior and equipment attached to them. These are Koopas are closer to [[Gallery:Paper_Mario:_The_Origami_King#Sprites_and_models|the costumed Goomba from Origami King]]. The Kung Fu Koopa isn't just running shop, another one is in the background to decorate the area that has a ton of Duel Spaces (it's more likely to land in a duel space near this Koopa just due to the clustering, but the Kung Fu Koopa there doesn't do anything in particular iirc). I played a lot of Pagoda Peak back in the day, with my sister... [[:File:Mic Space Picture.png|see this screenshot of that majestic nonfunctional Mic Space]], not so much [[Windmillville]] but it's the same idea. I assume [[Pirate Goomba]] has a page due to having a dedicated Happening Space event for them. Here's another question, should the married Koopas in [[Flower Shower (minigame)|Flower Shower]] get their own page? {{User:Mario/sig}} 00:22, January 25, 2025 (EST)

| :::::::They don't but I don't think the names don't make much difference. The current names aren't that specific, and they seem capitalized due to the souvenir styling. I think it's overkill to make articles on what's a souvenir in the Duty-Free Shop. {{User:Mario/sig}} 13:37, January 25, 2025 (EST)
