Something missing

Where's the koopa shell in Supporting Items?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by ‎161.97.140.17 (talk).

It was in the standard Items segment, but it makes more sense for it to be in Supporting Items, doesn't it? I have moved it. 13:39, 21 February 2017 (EST)

Spelling error

Special Worlds named after Mario Kart Nitro Cups?

I just found out that the names of each special world in this game (Mushroom, Flower, Star, Crown) correspond to the Mario Kart Nitro Cups. Should I add this to the trivia section, or is this just a coincidence? 15:46, 26 August 2017 (EDT)

Not necessarily the case. The usage of Mushroom, Flower, Star, and Crown isn't specific to the Mario Kart series (used in many other Mario Sports games as well). While it does originate from the Mario Kart series, using these items to symbolize ranks is a too common use for it to be specific to Mario Kart any more. Ray Trace^(T|C) 15:54, 26 August 2017 (EDT)

Decide what to do with the tables

This has been discussed on MarioWiki:Featured articles/Unfeature/N/Super Mario 3D World, but it seems that there isn't a good agreement on what should be done with the tables.

Enemies and Obstacles: I think that the enemies and obstacles should be written with galleries instead of tables. This makes it much smaller and easier to read, and it works properly on mobile (although it may be long on phones). The problem with this though is that it removes the descriptions. In my opinion, the descriptions are not necessary for the enemies because a user who wants to learn more about the enemy can just go to the enemy's article. It seems pointless to have large amounts of info on this page when it is covered in each enemy's article, and people are probably looking to see at a glance what enemies are in the game, not scroll through a long list with detailed descriptions of each of them.

Items: However, I do think it is a good idea to have very short (1-2 sentence) descriptions of the items, but is it worth keeping the bad table? Is there a better way to do it?

Change Enemies/Obstacles to galleries
