:Considering that it would only be a few sentences at best, I don't think an entire section is necessary. However, I would suggest against specifically saying Larry is 13. It's never said in the DMs that Larry ''is'' actually 13, only that his actress was told to voice him ''like'' he was 13, and it should be worded very carefully to reflect that. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 12:10, November 9, 2020 (EST)

::Ah yes, of course, that only makes sense, heheh. I would say if she was asked to talk gibberish like a 13 year old boy, then that is likely their vision for his age, however, it is important to reflect the way the actual source is written as opposed to going off the rails of trustworthy (kinda like the Mario statue goes off the rails of trustworthy- okay I'll stop with that) as this is just they asked her to voice him like a 13 year old rather than him being outright stated as 13. --[[User:GoldyFish110|GoldyFish110]] ([[User talk:GoldyFish110|talk]]) 12:13, November 9, 2020 (EST)

== Cheatsy Koopa ==
Hello… why does my edit was detel ? Larry is the second oldest in cartoon but the youngest in games [[Special:Contributions/90.3.147.74|90.3.147.74]] 10:50, March 19, 2022 (EDT)
:Do you have proof for this? {{User:Swallow/sig}} 12:12, March 19, 2022 (EDT)
:Well… that the actual canon, Larry is the youngest in video games and the second oldest in cartoons [[Special:Contributions/90.22.240.13|90.22.240.13]] 09:19, March 30, 2022 (EDT)
== That Super Mario World German Guide ==
Heya, so I added to the fourth point in Trivia how the source isn't a good source because the same source claims Lemmy Koopa to be the youngest even though Larry canonically is, and my edit got reverted for being an "informal unnecessary comment" but I disagree. I feel like this is worth noting. Is there a more formal way of letting people know that the German Guidebook isn't a canon-accurate source? Because obviously I can't really type "formal" or "professional" at all, and I personally don't want users to come to this wiki, look at the fourth trivial bullet point, look at the source, find the part claiming Lemmy to be the youngest, and then say Lemmy is the youngest because it was in a source referenced by the Mario wiki, even though he factually is not, because Larry is the youngest.

:It's not our job to tell people which sources are "accurate", since that's subjective anyway (see [[MarioWiki:Canonicity]], Nintendo hasn't established a clear canon so all licensed material is on the same tier). All we can do is provide the information and note discrepancies where they appear. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 18:27, October 19, 2022 (EDT)
