I don't consider this citogenesis. It's clearly a case where a popular fan name became part of a game, perhaps through the wiki's influence, but it's still in an official Mario game nonetheless. It's not like the Encyclopedia where tons of information was blatantly copied from the wiki with no regard for how much sense it actually made to use it. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 13:21, 17 November 2018 (EST) | I don't consider this citogenesis.

:It should be noted that Square Enix appears to have outsourced the English translation to Keywords International Ltd. Rather than the localizer blessing the fanbase with a nod and a wink, it is much more likely that the translator just didn't have a Nintendo reference file at the moment and did a quick online search to get what seemed to be the official name for an obscure ''Wario'' villain that only gets a passing mention. The fact that it is in-game shouldn't matter (I'm fairly certain the same thing also happened to Cape''d'' Mario to a lesser extent).
