There isn't currently a discussion for moving Monchee to a new name, and there won't be in the near future--but I have created a section concerning the legitimacy of the "monkey" thing. I'm actually curious to hear your feelings on the points I made. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 17:42, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

I know, I was referencing that very proposal in my summary. February 16 isn't too far away (unlike The Thousand-Year Door, we have a date for Mario vs. Donkey Kong), and honestly, I think it's a little fruitless to argue for or against it in particular until then. Considering the same development team seems to be in charge of the remake, I'm really not expecting many radical changes English-namewise, and I personally interpret this is as one-off by a promoter who didn't phone in and coordinate with the developers. Confusing "source wars"(?) comment aside, I don't think IP was too off base. But, maybe you're right, and this could very well be a sign of things to come. We'll have to see. We can afford to let it sit still for a while. Maybe there's a broader discussion to be had about the proper identification of generic descriptors for wiki use, but that's more complex as it's often been case-by-case.
