==Grubba being a Spike==
On the Super Mario Wiki (as of 2017), it is stated that [[Grubba]] (from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'') is a [[Spike]] (a turtle-like creature that tosses [[Spiked Ball]]s which first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''). This however, is false as Grubba shares little similarities to a Spike, Grubba is most likely a [[Clubba]] (a larger sub-species of [[Spike]]) given his appearance resembling a Clubba more, not to mention that regular [[Spike]]s didn't appear much in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series at this point. His name theming also seems to indicate that he is actually a Clubba (as the two names sound similar).
 
==Kamek's name being Magikoopa in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games==
On the Super Mario Wiki, [[Kamek]] is referred to as [[Magikoopa]] (his species name) on all sections relating to his roles the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. (series)|New Super Mario Bros.]]'' series due to being referred to as "Magikoopa" in the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' Prima Guide. However said guide has been known for using conjectural, dubious, and generic names for several enemies and the "Magikoopa" naming seems to fall under this category, the Super Mario Wiki treats Magikoopa as his name in the entire ''NSMB'' series due to the guide's mistake without considering the possibility that it may just be an error. Other sources such as Nintendo Power as well as the game's internal files have named him as Kamek which confirms that Kamek is his actual name even in these games.
 
The illegitimate English [[Mario Portal]] has referred to Kamek as "Magikoopa" in the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' section of the site however this source has been proven to be illegitimate as it has given many enemies incorrect names or the name of a completely different species such as incorrectly calling the [[Snufit]] a [[Snifit]] and calling the ''SMG'' [[Monty]] a [[Rocky Wrench]].
 
==Kersti's "Unused" Dialogue==
Line 90 ⟶ 95:
Some fans believe that [[Mario]]/[[Luigi]] (depending on who is playing) punches [[Yoshi]] to get him to stick out his tongue in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This however is false as upon closer inspection, it is shown that [[Mario]]/[[Luigi]] is actually pointing. The graphics make it look like he's clenching his fist but upon closer inspection, a finger is visible. This is even more clear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' and onwards, an official artwork of the game also shows that Mario is actually pointing and not punching as some people believe.
 
Some people also believe the myth after an article was published in September 2017 showing that Nintendo stated that Mario was originally punching Yoshi in ''Super Mario World''. Many fans believed that this was Nintendo confirming that Mario was actually punching Yoshi however the article actually states that that was actually a [[beta]] concept where they were originally going to have [[Mario]] punch [[Yoshi]] but theyit thenwas changed itin development to pointing so he doesn't seem likemake anMario animalless abusermean so as a result, Nintendo actually confirmed the opposite. This misconception was most likely stemmed from people not reading beyond the article's title.
