I don't think Toad Town is actually the confirmed location in Super Mario Galaxy, which is used in the infobox. I think an image of Toad Town in either Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Origami King or Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story would be a lot more accurate. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 16:49, August 18, 2020 (EDT) | I don't think Toad Town is actually the confirmed location in Super Mario Galaxy, which is used in the infobox.

Following some responses from the discussion I started above, it seems like all mentions of Toad Town in these games are better off removed. There do not seem to be any official references that the areas in these games are labeled as Toad Town, and the area in the first game is labeled as "Castle Gardens" (which even has [[Castle Gardens|its own article]]) in the pause menu. The article itself even speculates it being Toad Town. | Following some responses from the discussion I started above, it seems like all mentions of Toad Town in these games are better off removed.

#{{user|Doc von Schmeltwick}} Per LTL in the comments, the closest thing to a "direct" name is "Peach Castle Town," itself resembling an alternate Toad Town JP name anyway. | #{{user|Doc von Schmeltwick}} Per LTL in the comments, the closest thing to a "direct" name is "Peach Castle Town," itself resembling an alternate Toad Town JP name anyway. | ||
#{{user|LinkTheLefty}} What I said below: it seems more prudent to merge Castle Gardens with Toad Town, but that'll be a separate discussion at this rate. | #{{user|LinkTheLefty}} What I said below: it seems more prudent to merge Castle Gardens with Toad Town, but that'll be a separate discussion at this rate. | ||

::At the same time, TOK uses a different JP name in-game than any previous ones. I think "using a concept so similar that having them separate is splitting hairs" and "assuming continuity" are two completely different things.

:::Thing is, this page is already pretty big, splitting hairs would benefit the readers if they look for information only on ''Paper Mario'' or ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', but creating pages about concepts? I can see the point of it, more than once this was discussed, but I think that with the current wiki structure pages that put together a lot of related objects to deal with concepts only create humongous pages. It’s an interesting idea, and I personally like seeing the evolution of these concepts over time and the different takes the various development teams had on those, but we need a better way to do that.—[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 20:30, August 27, 2020 (EDT) | :::Thing is, this page is already pretty big, splitting hairs would benefit the readers if they look for information only on ''Paper Mario'' or ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', but creating pages about concepts?
