:::::::Well, I was the one who [[Talk:Blurp (Yoshi's Story)#Merge Red Blurp with Boss Bass or split Red Blurp and Blue Blurp|proposed]] the ''Yoshi's Story'' Blurp be split in the first place, so it would need a new proposal to override it now. Looking back, I'd support a remerge for general consistency with [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive 18#Split the colored enemies|color variations]] (and to give Red Blurp greater distinction from Boss Bass by grouping the closely-related Blue Blurp together in the same article, as well as to better reference the representative of the Star Hole in ''Mario Golf'').

:::::::::In the context of the Jungle Puddle page clear narration, the Japanese name of the group that Red Blurp and Blue Blurp belong to is plainly "''Pukupuku''" (Cheep Cheep, despite regular Cheep Cheeps not appearing in that level). It is currently only mentioned in the Red Blurp article, but I think that is just a holdover from before the name of Blue Blurp was confirmed. It is obvious that the translators misread it as "''Bukubuku''" (Blurp, from ''Super Mario World''), despite getting the name of the regular Cheep Cheeps correct. At any rate, they are treated as big Cheep Cheeps that are color variations of each other. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 10:25, 18 December 2018 (EST) | |||
