I believe that we should rename this page Snifit Police because while most of the copies of Mario Party 2 for the N64 called them Snufit Police some called them Snifit Police and more importantly the virtual console version of Mario Party 2 calls them Snifit Police therefore I believe that, that is the official name and that, that should be the name of the page. | I believe that we should rename this page Snifit Police because while most of the copies of Mario Party 2 for the N64 called them Snufit Police some called them Snifit Police and more importantly the virtual console version of Mario Party 2 calls them Snifit Police therefore I believe that, that is the official name and that, that should be the name of the page. | ||

Alright let's try this again. In Mario Party 2 these characters apparently have two English names with some copies of Mario Party 2 calling them Snufit Police and some calling them Snifit Police (although I've never actually seen a copy that calls them Snufit Police). But the virtual console version of Mario Party 2 calls them Snifit Police therefore in accordance with this proposal [[http://www.mariowiki.com/Talk:Bowser%27s_Castle_(world)#Revert_the_SMB3_worlds_to_their_.22Land.22_names|1]] they should be called Snifit Police because that is not only the most recent name used but the name for the Virtual Console version. | Alright let's try this again.

Looking at the above, it seems this proposal lost the first time, gained enough support the second time around, but then it was dropped due to the Snufit article name and I guess the discussion just sort of petered out. Snifit Police is used in most versions of ''Mario Party 2'' (I should add that, looking through the page history, it was quietly changed as a minor edit in 2006 because "[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Snufit_Police&diff=56104&oldid=56103 they are snufits]"), so it makes sense that it would be considered the name of the group here. Whether or not Snufits are actually Snifits, I feel, is another topic altogether (just look at Galoomba's para-/winged sub-species using their old yet official "Goomba" names for an example) - and we can figure that out later. | Looking at the above, it seems this proposal lost the first time, gained enough support the second time around, but then it was dropped due to the Snufit article name and I guess the discussion just sort of petered out.

To all opposers - do you have a copy of the game that actually calls them the Snufit Police (considering that ''is'' half the reason I made this proposal)? As SmokedChili keenly demonstrated, there isn't even a solid indication that they're the ''Super Mario 64'' species, so that makes the nine year old minor article move because "[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Snufit_Police&diff=56104&oldid=56103 they are snufits]" hold even less water. Also, I'd like to add something - the article currently states that they're called the Snifit Police, Snufit Police or "Snifit Patrol" depending on one's copy of the game. Looking at Virtual Console footage again, it's actually [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvdWvQCkknI&t=8m22s Snifit Patrol] that's used...

:[https://youtu.be/OwwjChXqP4I?t=435 And here's another video]. That would make the current name "Snifit Patrol," and not "Snufit Police" or "Snifit Police," which would make this proposal incorrect, right? {{User:Time Turner/sig}} | :[https://youtu.be/OwwjChXqP4I?t=435 And here's another video].
