::::::In fact, we had a [[MarioWiki talk:Naming#Make an exception to source priority for articles with identical names|whole other proposal about that]]. [[Snow Cheep Cheep]] is in a similar boat: that and "Cheep Cheep (Snow Kingdom)" are perfectly valid in-game names, but the former is more appealing because it lacks a parenthetical identifier. Simply put, "Peach's Castle (Past)" is not a very practical name, not just because it relies on an identifier to distinguish it from Peach's Castle of the present, but also it ''doesn't'' distinguish it from Peach's Castle of the past ''before'' the Shroobs conquer it. In fact, that's seems to be what the name "Peach's Castle (Past)" refers to - just the general concept of Peach's Castle in the past, rather than the Shroob-conquered version of it specifically, making it not only clunky but outright misleading. "Shroob Castle" gets the point across much better. It's not like we're gonna move the ''SMB3'' worlds to "World 1 (''Super Mario Bros. 3'')", "World 2 (''Super Mario Bros. 3'')", etc. just because those are more immediately visible to the player than Grass Land, Desert Land, etc. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 03:25, March 24, 2019 (EDT) | ::::::In fact, we had a [[MarioWiki talk:Naming#Make an exception to source priority for articles with identical names|whole other proposal about that]].
