Super Mario Wiki is one of my favorite wikis and is quite excellent, so I only made this account to correct what I feel are minor mistakes.
As you can tell from my name, yes, I initially signed up to argue that Yoshi's Island/Yo'ster Isle (SMW, ヨースター島 in Japanese), and and Yoshi's Island (YI, ヨッシーアイランド in Japanese) are two separate locations, as that was the most glaring mistake to me on the wiki. Eventually, I stuck around for other reasons.

| Meaning | Yoster = Possibly a combination of "Yoshi" + "Easter" and/or "Yoshi" + "Star" Tou = Japanese word for "island" |

| Alternate English names | Yo'ster Isle (Super Mario RPG) | |
