::I disagree. "Banandelion" is a name specific to this type of dandelion. Calling it a "dandelion" outright is too far general and can be easily confused for [[Floaty Fluff|another object]], which is also generically referred to as such on page 247 of Prima's ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' guide. Banandelion is a consequence of localization materials giving only giving a specific name to this dandelion in a ''Donkey Kong'' game, making it somewhat comparable to the Fright Mask/Jar situation.

::: I still say that these flowers should be referred to as "dandelions" in the appropriate sections for Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 because 1. It's the name given in the official strategy guides and 2. Nintendo of America and Prima most likely weren't aware that these things were supposed to be from Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.

::::The name's fine as it is, since the development team for the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games was ostensibly the same one behind ''Donkey Kong Jungle Beat'', and thus the dandelions likely were intended to be the same thing from the start. {{User:Archivist Toadette/sig}} 11:39, July 3, 2022 (EDT) | |||
