Boss?
Would Kuribo be considered a boss, as Mario and Luigi are forced to battle it?

Not really seeing that the boss music doesn't play during the battle.

Necessary?

This article doesn't seem altogether necessary, especially as the trivia states that "Kuribo is still referred to as Sockop" in battle. There's nothing notable or interesting about this particular Sockop of the group except that it was named in localization as a throwaway reference to Kuribo's Shoe. It makes more sense to redirect to Sockop or Goomba's Shoe. LinkTheLefty (talk) 10:25, October 20, 2019 (EDT)
The info can easily be merged into the Sockop page for sure, but as for the redirect: while I lean more towards Goomba's Shoe being the target, this might be a case of disambiguation, though I'm not 100% on that. --

- Per MarioWiki:Minor NPCs, Kuribo does in fact warrant an article. --
