These are just generic obstacles you'd find in almost every game (hence why they're plain-and-simply called "obstacles") with nothing unique about them; do we really need a page for this? Lucina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 05:42, January 15, 2023 (EST)

I believe yes, as this specific object with this design appeared in several games. If it only appeared in Paper Airplane Chase, it would be too generic, and I wouldn't consider making a page about it. What also makes it more unique is that walls do not actually damage the paper plane in this game. They only change its directory (unlike obstacles). Obstacles appear in different sizes depending on the difficulty, and the page could also be expanded with patterns the obstacles appear in during Endless.

Is it an official name for the subject in the page? Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 07:07, January 15, 2023 (EST)
Yes, it is consistently called an "obstacle" in the help section in-game Spectrogram (talk) 09:57, January 15, 2023 (EST)
