I don't see why this template exists. So an enemy wasn't named in ''one'' game, why does their name there need to be established as "conjecture" when there's already a well-established official name for them? It makes no sense to randomly establish a long-standing official name as conjectural for a section if it wasn't named in ''that one game''. That just sounds ridiculously picky and asinine. Imagine this: Nintendo names an enemy the same for ten games straight. Then, because they expect us to pick up on the name at this point, they don't name it in the eleventh game. We label it as conjecture for that game's section. <s>People stop regarding us as a good Mario wiki, simply because we couldn't stand to use common sense.</s> It goes on, until Nintendo labels it with a name again. My point is that insanely picky templates like this actively make the wiki worse. {{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 02:59, July 30, 2019 (EDT) | I don't see why this template exists.
