I always found it interesting that the "G(al)oomba/Bob-omb/Cheep Cheep in a Bubble"-type enemies seemingly never had separate articles at any point. Maybe it's just because nobody got around to it, but I seem to remember giving them articles to be dissuaded. With that in mind, why? For starters, the enemy variants do have official names (at least in Mario Mania): the Galoomba is "Goomba in a Bubble", the Cheep Cheep is "Fish in Bubble" or "Bubble Fish", and the Bob-omb is "Bubble Bob-omb". Names alone aren't enough to warrant splitting them, sure, but because of the Bubbles, their behavior is different; with the bubble, they act differently than they would without it. After it pops, they might "return" to normal enemies, but the wiki's no stranger to giving separate articles to enemies with characteristics that don't last forever, such as, say, the [[Winged Goomba|various]] [[Koopa Paratroopa|winged]] [[Parabuzzy|enemies]], the [[Para-Goomba (Super Mario World)|parachuted]] [[Parabomb|enemies]], and even [[Balloon Goomba|Goombas attached to balloons]]. It really seems to me that the bubbled enemies, by all means, should have separate articles. {{User:Time Turner/sig}}

Why isn't the bubble from Super Mario Land 2 included here? That was a pretty significant bubble. Buddy Christ (talk)

I always found it interesting that the "G(al)oomba/Bob-omb/Cheep Cheep in a Bubble"-type enemies seemingly never had separate articles at any point. Maybe it's just because nobody got around to it, but I seem to remember giving them articles to be dissuaded. With that in mind, why? For starters, the enemy variants do have official names (at least in Mario Mania): the Galoomba is "Goomba in a Bubble", the Cheep Cheep is "Fish in Bubble" or "Bubble Fish", and the Bob-omb is "Bubble Bob-omb". Names alone aren't enough to warrant splitting them, sure, but because of the Bubbles, their behavior is different; with the bubble, they act differently than they would without it. After it pops, they might "return" to normal enemies, but the wiki's no stranger to giving separate articles to enemies with characteristics that don't last forever, such as, say, the various winged enemies, the parachuted enemies, and even Goombas attached to balloons. It really seems to me that the bubbled enemies, by all means, should have separate articles. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Sure, why not. - Walkazo 15:59, 7 July 2015 (EDT)
