This is just one of the castle's secret stars, which aren't named and do not have articles. We have articles for the mini-courses that house some of them, but not the stars themselves. I don't see a reason for this to be an exception, especially since the title is unsourced.    00:22, January 23, 2021 (EST)

It's possible the title is from Nintendo Power or Prima, but yeah, the other Castle Stars don't have articles because they have no in-game name and aren't considered the main objective of the area.    00:27, January 23, 2021 (EST)
I think we should delete this until a name is sourced; if a name is sourced, then we can recreate it as a redirect to a list of secret stars.  Xiahou Ba(the Nasty Warrior) 01:52, January 23, 2021 (EST)

OK, I spoke with the article's creator and he told me he just got the name from the wiki itself, specifically the Super Mario 64 DS article. I checked the edit history; apparently the name's been there since 2007, added by an editor who hasn't been active since 2009. I'm guessing the name is either made-up or comes from an obscure or dubious source. Whatever the case, this does not need its own article.    22:13, January 25, 2021 (EST)

One more question: Would this be worth keeping as a redirect to the Castle Secret Stars list? No one has confirmed the name as official, but as I stated it's been on the wiki for a very long time and we have other unofficial names like "Ankoopa" as redirects. However, I'm not sure if this one is notable enough to keep.    14:53, January 28, 2021 (EST)
Agreed with deleting, no harm in keeping it as a redirect.   Mario JC 19:23, January 30, 2021 (EST)
