Merge 10-0
So, in the game itself, Super Mario Odyssey explicitly considers this object to be a note, as evident right here. Per our own naming policies, this should take priority over the names in the accompanying Prima Guide, which is not even consistent. It is called a "song note" and a "music note" interchangeably with "treble clef". Further, in The Art of Super Mario Odyssey, a direct translation of Japanese text, it is also just called a note, not a treble clef. So, while certainly conceptually related to ? Coins, I think it is more accurate to consider the treble clef to be a type of note that just triggers a string of succeeding notes to appear. I do not think it is intended to be a separate object and it would be more accurate for them to share a page.
I can see this not being preferred by some. In the real world, a treble clef is not a musical note. But I don't think that's relevant here because the notes in Super Mario are themselves not "real" musical notes, are they? They are not on a page, their position in space does not influence the sounds they make, and the player does not reference them to play specific songs. They are just shaped like music notes.
I offer two options:
- Merge treble clef with note.
- Keep them separate.

Merge treble clef with note[edit]
- Nintendo101 (talk) Per proposal.
- Camwoodstock (talk) Per proposal--if the game itself calls them Notes, we don't see any reason to really refute it. Besides, if notes can be different colors, different shapes probably isn't too big of a stretch.
- Hewer (talk) Per proposal, the game couldn't be much more direct in calling these notes (and it's also strangely bold of this article to say that the name is "erroneous").
- Sparks (talk) Per all.
- FanOfRosalina2007 (talk) Per all.
- MegaBowser64 (talk) It is a VERY sad day for the musically literate. The treble clef will forever go down in history among Mario fans as a musical note (it is not), but alas, 'tis necessary to maintain a clearly organized wiki. Sometimes one must lie to keep the masses happy. Per all.
- Mario (talk) Calling this a "note" is as bad as a mistake as Smash Bros. calling their new recordings """remixes""". Anyway, this isn't the first time a score notation has been used as a "note", we had Catchy Tunes commit the same crime, and Bass AND Sharp ended up as casualties too!
- ThePowerPlayer (talk) Per all.
- Remembered Old Buddy (talk) Per all.
- JanMisali (talk) Per all.

Comments[edit]
@Mario clearly they do not let Koji Kondo into the room when they are naming these subjects. - Nintendo101 (talk) 21:51, April 3, 2024 (EDT)
