While I understand why "Stompin' Chomp" can't be relied on as an official name, this enemy ''does'' have an official English name, which ''is'' present right there in the level's title, which is just "Chomp" — this is also backed up by both the Nintendo Power and Prima guides, as mentioned by LinkTheLefty in the above discussion. It unfortunately seems that while this enemy has an official name, it's a pretty indistinct one, which we actually have precedent for from the same game, in fact, with [[Gargantua Blargg (tall)]]. Per the [[MarioWiki:Naming|naming policy]], this should be moved to its in-game English name, which in this case is just Chomp. | While I understand why "Stompin' Chomp" can't be relied on as an official name, this enemy ''does'' have an official English name, which ''is'' present right there in the level's title, which is just "Chomp" — this is also backed up by both the Nintendo Power and Prima guides, as mentioned by LinkTheLefty in the above discussion.

Move?[edit]
There's really no evidence these are called Stompin' Chomps. As I said here, the only source for this name is Rompin', Stompin' Chomps, which is most likely meant to read "Rompin', Stompin' Chomps", not "Rompin', Stompin' Chomps". I'd suggest moving this to Bound Wanwan, as it's the only directly confirmed name. Niiue (talk) 06:57, March 25, 2019 (EDT)
- Not so fast! I've asked to LinkTheLefty, and i'm yet waiting for his answer. Let's just probably wait until he finds name in both guides. --

- Let's see what will he answer for us. -- FanOfYoshi 08:12, March 25, 2019 (EDT)
- Since the article says that they are prominent in Rompin', Stompin' Chomps, I checked the info there. In the Nintendo Power guide, they are referred to as "bouncing Chomps" and are differentiated from Incoming Chomps, although it also refers to the Chomp Shark as both an "Incoming Chomp" and "Chomp". In the Prima Games guide, those three are more generally referred to as "Chomps" in that section. However, earlier on page 16, it is mentioned that Winged Clouds can be "smashed with a rolled Romp Chomp", although that appears to just be an alternate name for Chomp Rock, which the rest of the guide seems to get right.

- It's hard to tell wether "Stompin' Chomp" was intended to be taken as a name, or if it was only a generic descriptor. -- FanOfYoshi 03:04, March 28, 2019 (EDT)
- Since it is only ever alluded to in this one level title, it seems like neither. LinkTheLefty (talk) 19:55, June 25, 2019 (EDT)

Move to Chomp (stomping) 5-0
While I understand why "Stompin' Chomp" can't be relied on as an official name, this enemy does have an official English name, which is present right there in the level's title, which is just "Chomp" — this is also backed up by both the Nintendo Power and Prima guides, as mentioned by LinkTheLefty in the above discussion. It unfortunately seems that while this enemy has an official name, it's a pretty indistinct one, which we actually have precedent for from the same game, in fact, with Gargantua Blargg (tall). Per the naming policy, this should be moved to its in-game English name, which in this case is just Chomp.

Vague. How about "Chomp (stomping)?" Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 18:27, August 9, 2023 (EDT)
- Sure, that's fair enough. I see the problem you're addressing. I'll update the proposal. Pseudo (talk) (contributions)
