:I'd also like to say if it's really the developer's intention to make this item distinct, I'd argue that this is also a case for keeping it split, as they're really going for a distinct item. Super Mario Galaxy plays by different rules than the traditional 2D Mario platformers (hell, even Super Mario 3D Land and the future Mario games), and having a separate article for its different invincibility power-up as opposed to simply using a regular star demonstrates that. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 22:37, 30 April 2016 (EDT)

::But it was only changed so it wouldn't be confused with a Power Star. And, besides, the Invincibility Barrel isn't star-shaped, is it?

:::I've already acknowledged that my example is a bit extreme, but saying that "they're both star-shaped" isn't a strong argument, considering that it's an incredibly vague point, as well as the bunch of other star-shaped objects that are split off for different reasons. And you've ignored what I said: different name and appearance is a strong argument for a split. The Rainbow Star doesn't even have the trademark eyes from the star. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 22:54, 30 April 2016 (EDT)
