Do we really need this article? It seems pretty useless. This info can be found on Luigi's page. Just because his name is mentioned once doesn't mean he gets an article. It's just a random generic name they threw in because his buddy needed to call him something (same thing with this guy). He doesn't deserve an article anymore than his partner (Larry?) does. As a matter of fact, we have quite a few articles like this that I'm really not sure about.

OK, thanks, but now I have another thing to say. The Minor NPCs policy also says that if an unnamed NPC has some sort of improtance to the story, they should also be given an article. So should Template:Conjecturaltext (Gary's friend) get an article? Or would it be redundant since he serves the exact same purpose as Gary?
