This alleged "Prima name" can barely even be called that. The context is that Prima's gold enemy listings simply group the variants together. The illustrations of the Gold Goombas, Gold Paragoombas, and Gold Goomba Towers are listed under a single header, with the name "Gold Goombas" referring to gold Goombas as a whole rather than any specific variant. For that reason, we should not take this as an official name. I've already made preparations to have the Towers moved since they're named in ''Puzzle & Dragons: SMBE'', but we don't have such a convenient source for the Paragoombas. We do, however, have a Japanese name. Let's use that (and do the same for any other instances of this). {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 21:49, April 4, 2020 (EDT)

:That's entirely unnecessary. The Prima guide also says "'''all''' varieties of Gold Goombas" - this implies that '''all''' enemies pictured are variants of Gold Goombas, meaning that the name "Gold Goomba" refers to '''all''' of the enemies pictured. By this logic, we can say that "Gold Goomba" is in fact an official name. Plus, using common sense, using the name "Gōruden Patakuribō" would be ''extremely'' user-unfriendly and make the article nearly impossible to find. {{User:JoeRunner/sig}} 22:27, April 4, 2020 (EDT)

This alleged "Prima name" can barely even be called that. The context is that Prima's gold enemy listings simply group the variants together. The illustrations of the Gold Goombas, Gold Paragoombas, and Gold Goomba Towers are listed under a single header, with the name "Gold Goombas" referring to gold Goombas as a whole rather than any specific variant. For that reason, we should not take this as an official name.
