Okay, so this has been on my mind since the proposal to move several different Mario Kart tracks to their MKT names and it's still on my mind based on the B Dasher Mk. II's name change: the status of the Turbo Yoshi. As of Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit, it is called the Super Yoshi, which makes it the most recent name. However, Mario Kart Tour is still introducing colored variants of this kart, all of which are still going by the Turbo Yoshi name (Red Turbo Yoshi, Blue Turbo Yoshi etc.) The first thought would be to move this page and really, I wouldn't make a proposal otherwise, as several other topics got moved without proposals, but that got me thinking; is the Super Yoshi actually the Turbo Yoshi or is it a similar looking kart? Based on looks, I think it's clear that it is the same kart, but I don't know if the names for the Super Yoshi are different in other languages than the Turbo Yoshi's. So I think a proposal is necessary for this, as there's also the idea of the colored variants in MKT to take into account. If anyone could look into the names of the Super Yoshi in MKL:HC, that's be awesome (as I know very little about proper translations).

Move Turbo Yoshi to Super Yoshi (kart)

1. Tails777 (talk) I feel there's a lot of evidence suggesting that they are meant to be the same karts (same appearance primarily and a similar name), but I'm willing to change my vote if proof arises that they could be different. Identifier obviously since Super Yoshi is also a power-up name for Yoshi.

Comments

I would like to ask, since we don't have pages for the Home Circuit specific karts, if the split one wins, what would we do? WildWario (talk) 21:44, December 26, 2021 (EST)

I think this proposal needs more time in the oven, figuratively speaking. Since Mario Kart Tour is still ongoing, and there's still a chance this will be referred to as the "Turbo Yoshi" as opposed to it's Live Home Circuit one-off name, it would have been better to hear other opinions from other users.

That said, I think the "Super Yoshi" name is a mistake, much like "Ghost" referring to Polterpiranha, and thus should not be moved to that title. ^(T|C) 00:02, December 27, 2021 (EST)
