As if the Galoomba confusion wasn't enough, the "Winged Galoombas" in ''Mario Clash'' are not only referred to as [http://nintendoagemedia.com/elements_nocache/284D55D8-CF1D-7AA0-029539BC19DEF8C1.jpg "Para-Goombas"] in the manual, but are given another name in the Japanese version, [http://nintendoagemedia.com/elements_nocache/21B26D2A-CF1D-7AA0-05CBE115DD51AF9B.jpg "Sharp Winged Galoomba"]. Since the growth of spikes on their head would also be an indication that they're really another sub-species of Galoomba, that should be reflected with a split.

As if the Galoomba confusion wasn't enough, the "Winged Galoombas" in Mario Clash are not only referred to as "Para-Goombas" in the manual, but are given another name in the Japanese version, "Sharp Winged Galoomba". Since the growth of spikes on their head would also be an indication that they're really another sub-species of Galoomba, that should be reflected with a split. On the other hand, if they're instead deemed one and the same, then naming policy dictates both articles would be called "Para-Goomba" (since manuals trump most other potential sources).

Comments

Ideally, the resulting article should be "Para-Goomba (Mario Clash)" since that's the only known official English name, but if Winged Galoomba and Para-Galoomba are considered acceptable (I think based on this proposal), then perhaps it can be "Para-Galoomba (Mario Clash)".
