Shouldn't this page be renamed? "Warp Pipe" isn't used nearly as often, and most major in-game appearances that actually bother to name then simply call them "pipes". Off the top of my head, both ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'' and the ''Super Mario Maker'' games simply refer to them as pipes. Furthermore, not all pipes actually let you travel to other locations, so the name isn't really fitting.

:I'm pretty sure Mario & Luigi: Dream Team is the only game I recall the "Warp Pipe" name being used, referring to the ones used to fast travel around Pi'illo Island. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 14:31, January 2, 2024 (EST)

::A pretty recent instance of "Warp Pipe" in official media is in [https://www.nintendo.com/us/whatsnew/mobilenews-wiggler-joins-mario-kart-tour-as-a-driver-in-the-pipe-tour/ this news article] on nintendo.com: "''Navigate an underground network of Warp Pipes and watch for Piranha Plants in new course '''Piranha Plant Pipeline'''!''"<br>Just throwing this out there. I'm all for moving the article to "Pipe", though. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 18:51, February 1, 2024 (EST)
:::Yeah, and this would help acknowledge the fact that the main pipes in the ''Super Mario'' franchise aren't generic, but rather a specific kind. [[User:Super Mario RPG|Super Mario RPG]] ([[User talk:Super Mario RPG|talk]]) 18:54, February 1, 2024 (EST)
::::I agree with '''BubbleRevolution'''. Why call every pipe a "Warp Pipe" if only some pipes actually ''warp'' you? {{User:Mariofan28047/sig}} 16:08, April 4, 2024 (EDT)
I forgot when I left my previous comment that Paper Mario: The Origami King also uses the name "Warp Pipe", though primarily for the Musee Champignon pipes which role is similar to the Dream Team Warp Pipes. {{User:Nightwicked Bowser/sig}} 17:29, April 4, 2024 (EDT)
Wouldn't it be a better idea to split Pipe from Warp Pipe instead, then? Not all pipes do let you warp, but the term "Warp Pipe" has still been in use as late as last year, so... {{User:Arend/sig}} 12:56, April 14, 2024 (EDT)
:As I've mentioned [[#Pipes are not warp pipes etc.|here]], it seems that "Warp Pipe" was supposed to be "Warp Zone" Pipes or ones that travel great distances. I don't know if they refer to any (usually under/above-ground) transporting pipe. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 21:38, April 15, 2024 (EDT)
