This proposal aims to do exactly what the header indicates: split the locations that, while not always accessible from the world map, have official names, just like [[Melody Bay]], the [[Coal Mines]], [[Belome Temple]]. etc. These are:

The original [[media:Super Mario RPG Worlds Final Edition.jpg|Shogakukan guide]] considers Yo'ster Isle to be its own world, consistent with it having its own section on the overworld map, and bringing the total number of worlds to the standard eight; the [[media:Super Mario RPG Worlds Player's Guide.jpg|Player's Guide]] instead considers it part of the third world and throws off the remaining worlds. It would be one thing if the guide was consistent about it, but closer inspection shows that it's not. For example, it claims that Kinklink and Terrapin appear in World 1{{hover|*|which could be technically correct if you believe the first visit to Bowser's Keep isn't World 8}}, Frogog and {{hover|Shyper|actually Shyster according to stats and being grouped in enemies instead of bosses}} appear in World 2, Chow, Fink Flower, Shy Ranger, and the Double Punch appear in World 3, Stinger and the Chomp weapon appear in World 4, the Hand Gun and the Sticky Glove appear in World 5, Fautso appears in World 7, etc. This is probably where the "Drill Bit is listed in World 5" mistake comes from; it's actually referring to Shogakukan world order, which would place it in what the Player's Guide considers World 4, as suspected. Due to the Shogakukan guide's overall greater sense of consistency as it doesn't shuffle the world numbers, this proposal will formalize the decision to give precedence to the world numbers used in Shogakukan. The discrepancies between the Shogakukan guide and the Player's Guide will still be noted in the worlds' own articles, however.
