**In fact, just look at the [[Bee Trap]] enemy. That wasn't actually named, but the conjectural name we gave it now suits it very well. Did it "break teh canon!!!11" of the Mario series?

Is this name official?Tomz123 (talk)
- That question could be asked for a LOT of enemies. As for this one, I'm not sure, but I can't find proof of it being official. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
I'm fairly certain this is his official name. If you read into the trivia section, it will explain that the name originated from Prima (I do not know why that is considered trivia though).--Knife (talk) 01:59, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Prima issn't official though. I'm pretty sure theres a Nintendo Power guide that is official out there. 
Since when? Nintendo Power doesn't write strategy guides anymore. Ever since they stopped, we consider all Prima guides as the official strategy guide.--Knife (talk) 01:15, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
But Prima has every fact wrong. It calls swoopers bats, whomps thwomps, Mega Goomba the boss, "Giant Goomba", and it says Wario came from the WarioWare series and that Dry Bones first appearence is Super Mario World. Plus, this is unmario related, but they call Resident Evil 4 Ganados, Zombies which they clearly aren't, which is CLEARLY read the first time you kill an enemy.
I am aware of that, but Prima is more of a last resort source of information. They do screw up names a lot but if there is contradicting info from a better source, we tend to ignore Prima. Since this name is the only official name for this boss, it'll have to work. Prima is also considered the official strategy book by retailers so that adds a little credibilty. Let me discuss with the other admins though.--Knife (talk) 01:09, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
I know that Prima can be used as a LAST resort, but if theres better ones we should use them. I'm am content with Giga Lakitu, I see nothing wrong with that. I just think Prima is the absolute worst guide out there. But if theres nothing left we can use that. I have no idea why its the official strategy book by retailers though. I mean, it seems not to have been proof-read or anything.
