==Big Monty Mole and Mega Mole being the same==
Shortly after the release of ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', the Super Mario Wiki treated the [[big Monty Mole]]s in the game as [[Mega Mole]]s and put them in the same page as them up until sometime in [[2019]], when ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' released.
Big Monty Moles and Mega Moles share nothing in common besides being enlarged [[Monty Mole]]s. While Mega Moles have unique properties such as being able to be stood on and not chasing the player, big Monty Moles in ''Super Mario Maker'' function the exact same as their regular counterparts, only bigger. Additionally, big Monty Moles look like normal Monty Moles in the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style, further proving that they are not Mega Moles. It was also further proven that big Monty Moles and Mega Moles were separate
==Blue tuxedo Monty Moles==

For the longest time up until mid-late [[2021]], the ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' section on the [[Monty Mole]] page in the Super Mario Wiki incorrectly claimed that there were Monty Moles wearing blue tuxedos that appeared in the penultimate issue. However, these were [[Mega Mole]]s wearing blue tuxedos and not Monty Moles as they were bigger and had the Mega Mole design features. Notably in the first page of the issue, one of the Mega Moles wearing blue tuxedos can be seen along with a Monty Mole wearing a red tuxedo.

==Cheep-Chomps, Boss Basses, and other large Cheep-Cheeps==
On the Super Mario Wiki, the [[Bubba]], the ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' variation of the [[Big Bertha]], and the ''[[Mario Kart DS]]/[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' variation of the [[Boss Bass]] were merged with the [[Cheep-Chomp]] (mostly due to the enemies sharing similar Japanese names (although this can only go so far as it would mean that the enemies could share the same name but are a separate species as we've seen several times in English releases)). Despite the fact that not only do all the enemies have different appearances, they also have different names. The ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' version of the [[Boss Bass]] remained it's own page (despite the other renditions of the Boss Bass being confirmed to be Boss Basses by the games, guides, and even Nintendo Power). [[Big Bertha]] was also merged with Boss Bass despite her Japanese name being slightly different.
Line 34 ⟶ 38:
However Grand Goombas and Mega Goombas are completely separate as not only do they have different names in most other languages, the Mega Goombas are confirmed in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'' to be standard Goombas enlarged by [[Kamek]] (in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', it is stated that the Mega Goomba was enlarged by eating a [[Mega Mushroom]]<ref>''New Super Mario Bros.'' Nintendo Official Player's Guide pg. 14 - Looks like a Goomba got into the Mega Mushrooms! Regular stomps won't cut it this time, but you can Ground-Pound the Mega Goomba by leaping from the rising platforms or using wall jumps.</ref>) while the Grand Goombas appear to be naturally large, additionally, while Mega Goomba's appear to be larger than Grand Goombas, the Grand Goomba's trophy description in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' has confirmed that Grand Goombas and Mega Goombas are different.<ref>Giant Goomba Trophy Description - A giant-sized Goomba, as the name suggests. In ''Super Mario 64'', punching and kicking had no effect on this brute. It could be stopped like normal Goombas--by jumping on it from above. A colossal Goomba appears as the boss of world four in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', but that's a Mega Goomba, not a Giant Goomba.</ref> The [[Hefty Goomba]] was also merged with the "Big Goomba" page before getting it's own page in early 2019.

==Monty Mole Swoopers falling into lava==
[[File:Proof the Monty Mole Swoopers did not fall in lava.png|thumb|300px|Proof that the Monty Mole Swoopers did not fall in lava, and rather Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi fell into the lava instead]]
When the sections on the [[Monty Mole]] page discussing the Mario manga were summarized, one piece of info it stated was the [[Monty Mole Swooper]]s from volume 5 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' fell into [[lava]] after being defeated by [[Mario]] and his friends. This is false however, as the Monty Mole Swoopers forfeited the fight when Mario and his friends backed them into a corner, with the Monty Mole Swoooers telling Mario and his friends where the pipe to [[Bowser's Castle]] is. However, other pages discussing the Monty Mole Swoopers though do not mention them falling in lava. This misinterpretation was likely caused from the editor not reading through the manga or skimming through the original section prior to it being summarized and poorly written. It could have also been confused with the part at the end of the chapter where Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]] falling into the lava, and confusing that part for the Monty Mole Swoopers falling in the lava instead, which does not happen.
