Actually "Pakkun Flower" means Piranha Plant.Knife (talk)

Before, it said "Pakkun FurawÄ", I removed the Ä, but I think it should be something else there. Whaddaya think? Furawa? Furawu? Furawe? Smiddle_sig_conangator.gif AAAA! æ 16:25, 2 January 2007 (EST)

Merge?[edit]

Seriously, its pretty much clear that the Pakkun Flower is just an ordinary Piranha Plant, given that it has it's Japanese name. Its name just got poorly localized.--Mr. Satran 11:29, 28 December 2007 (EST)

They look like Piranha Plants and actually behave like them. The name for most Super Mario Land enemies is unknown or conjectural, so I wonder where their English name came from. It's likely a Japanese source, so a merge should do it. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 12:23, 28 December 2007 (EST)
I'm not sure I understood you correctly, but the enemies' names are not conjectural. The (English) instruction booklet lists all the names (though they were not translated from the Japanese version). Time Questions 12:31, 28 December 2007 (EST)
Then I was thinking of Super Mario Land 2, sorry. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 12:43, 28 December 2007 (EST)
I agree with Mr. Satran, merge it. As Time Q said, the anme come from the Super Mario Land instuction booklet. I think one of the page on one of the enemy that appear in that game mention something about the translation being rushed.

Yes, it's the Chibibo page. I also agree to merge. Time Questions 12:58, 28 December 2007 (EST)


*ahem* Since the overal conscensus is to merge this article, and that all evidence point out that "Pakkun Flower" is simply the poorly localized named of the Pirahna Plant rather than a different species altogether, is it possible to merge the article without having to run it throught the proposal page? Blitzwing (talk · gnome work)

Yes. Generally, the proposals page should only be used when there's no consensus, regarding splits & merges. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 11:40, 25 January 2008 (EST)
