For the last 3 guides these have been called Sumo Bros. by Prima and regardless of your preference towards Prima they are still the official source for game guides of Nintendo games. Now the question is should we consider this a new name and to that I say yes (otherwise I wouldn't make this proposal) Think about it when Prima makes a naming mistake they usually don't make the same one multiple times in a row. But with these they have called them Sumo Bros. consistently in the last 3 game guides. I believe that this is enough evidence to say that they have been renamed Sumo Bro. because unlike other instances where a creature is renamed such as Fishbone being called Wet Bones this one is consistent. | For the last 3 guides these have been called Sumo Bros. by Prima and regardless of your preference towards Prima they are still the official source for game guides of Nintendo games.

'''@Koopa K''' And I say that's wrong because of the fact that 3 straight manuals have called them Sumo Bros. while only one manual (and possibly some books) call them Sledge Bros. So what I'm trying to say is that there are two types of Sumo Bros. much like how there are two types of Boomerang Brso. {{User|Raven Effect}} | '''@Koopa K''' And I say that's wrong because of the fact that 3 straight manuals have called them Sumo Bros. while only one manual (and possibly some books) call them Sledge Bros.

:I say it's right. Still every single other website refers to them as Sledge Bros. Only Prima refers to them as Sumo Bros. Also, if we create the article we would have to make the regular [[Sumo Bros.]] article {{ | :I say it's right. Still every single other website refers to them as Sledge Bros. Only Prima refers to them as Sumo Bros. Also, if we create the article we would have to make the regular [[Sumo Bros.]] article {{fakelink|Sumo Bros. (Super Mario World)}} These are completely different from Sumo Bros. Oh, and what does the game refer to them as? Sledge Bros. I would guess, because the Superstar Saga Boomerang Bros. where officially referred to as Boomerang Bros. '''IN THE GAME!''' So yea, you think Sumo Bros. I think Sledge Bros. neither of us are particularly right until the proposal ends. {{User|Koopa K}} | ||
::Wait which official website calls them Sledge Bros. 0_0 and also Sledge Bros. are never called Sledge Bros. in the game they are called Sledge Brothers in the manual of SMB3 the only time a game has ever called them that. While there have been 3 straight games that have officially called them Sumo Bro. and once again whether you like Prima or not they are the official makers of Nintendo game guides what they say is canon unless it conflicts with other more reliable sources like a Nintendo Power guide or a game. Also I would like to point out that at the edit was made that said a guide had called them Sumo Bros. Prima was considered an unofficial source (or at least every one before 2007 was) and New Super Mario Bros. was made in 2006 which means that the guide that calls them Sumo Bro. would most likely be a Nintendo Power guide. {{User|Raven Effect}} | ::Wait which official website calls them Sledge Bros. 0_0 and also Sledge Bros. are never called Sledge Bros. in the game they are called Sledge Brothers in the manual of SMB3 the only time a game has ever called them that.

:::I never said official I just said websites. I know Prima is the official source for game guides, but that doesn't mean they don't make mistakes, as stated above XSXNX's comment. SMB3 refers to them as Sledge Bros. the only game with Sledge Bros. before Sumo Bros. were invented. Just because something is an official game guide, doesn't mean the cannot make mistakes, three times. {{User|Koopa K}} | :::I never said official I just said websites.

'''@KoopaK'''The thing that is confusing me, is that you and a few others switched to support just because that was the most likely to pass, seriously show some spirit.... if you believe that this shouldn't pass, you don't have to support it. Stick to your beliefs, I don't mean to be rude, but it kind of got on my nerves. '''@Raven Effect''' I provided the Zelda Example because it was a case similar to this one and I was giving an example. --[[User:XXSuperXXNintendoXx|XXSuperXXNintendoXx]] Also, we need to stick to which name is more commonly used. Why do we need to complicate it, we don't always have to go by the newest name.... I wouldn't search for Sumo Bro (NSMB), I would instead search for Sledge Bro. because its the more common name, not by games, but its more used by the users of this wiki. Don't complicate it for this wiki's viewers.

'''@ xXSuperXXNintendoXx''' READ THE <bleep>ING REASON BEFORE YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT! I changed to''keep consistency'' of all the stuff that has been consistently renamed, NOT BECAUSE IT WAS MORE LIKELY TO PASS, THAT IS A DUMB REASON I WOULD NEVER DO THAT!!! It's about consistency, this has been consistently renamed just like the Goal Pole. IT WAS THE FREAKIN REASON I SUPPORTED THE GOAL POLE TPP! I suggest next time you read my supporting comment before you criticize me. P.S. Sledge Bro. would still be a redirect. {{User|Koopa K}} | |||
