::If it's policy to use the newest English name, and their most recent English name is "Snifit Patrol", couldn't you just do the move?

:::This is more of an fyi than a request. If it wasn't already mostly a done deal, there'd be a new "move to Snifit Patrol" TPP, but given how it's been such a divisive issue with multiple TPPs and info slowly dripping in and being buried in walls of text and cross-talk, it's still better to make a last statement summarizing the facts. That makes it clear, when people look back on the talk page, why there was a move without a successful consensus, and it gives any dissenters a chance to (hopefully) come back and see the facts we now have and agree that the move is necessary - rather than just springing it on them in spite of the TPP outcomes. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 16:16, 20 April 2015 (EDT) | :::This is more of an fyi than a request.

::::In retrospect, despite the [[Talk:Snufit#Merge Snufit with Snifit|other]] proposal I had originally intended to prepare after the above one was satisfactorily done, I wouldn't particularly be in favor of merging Snufit with Snifit at ''this'' juncture, either... Given it was pointed out that we cannot ascertain if the police members are composed of Snufits or Snifits, the idea that Nintendo meant to or called them Snifits but a mere old guide typo got in the way is much weaker now than it was before, plus I'd forgotten that Snufits' floating ability actually does come into rather significant use at one or two points in the gas maze, which should at least make them different enough for their own article. So yes, let that be known as coming from a person who strongly supported moving the name of their police force. (Apologies for cancelling it beyond authority - I thought I remember reading that extended proposals renew the days a proposer can cancel of their own power, so it slipped my mind at the time to double-check.)
