Per [[MarioWiki:Naming#Name changes]] (specifically, the exceptions) and the [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive_51#Smash_Bros._Articles:_What_Stays_and_What_Goes.3F|recent ''Smash''-related propsal]], how about renaming this article either "Green Block" or "Green ! Block"? After all, that's what it's called in ''Mario 64''; "Metal Box" is a [[wikipedia:Beam me up, Scotty|Beam me up, Scotty]]-ism, as only the ''Smash'' series calls it that. | Per [[MarioWiki:Naming#Name changes]] (specifically, the exceptions) and the [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive_51#Smash_Bros._Articles:_What_Stays_and_What_Goes.3F|recent ''Smash''-related propsal]], how about renaming this article either "Green Block" or "Green !

#{{User|Ultimate Mr. L}} As we do not have articles for Red ! Blocks or Blue ! Blocks, ''and'' because Metal Box is more descriptive, ''and'' because Metal Box is an in-game name, while the other was taken from a booklet (not a huge difference in tier, but still a difference), I say we keep the current name. | #{{User|Ultimate Mr. L}} As we do not have articles for Red !

#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} I'd say that Metal Box is likely the more familiar name at this point. If we do get another ''Mario'' appearance for this block and gets "Green Block" as an official name, then we can reconsider. I don't consider it a "ridiculous" rename proposal, as bringing up our priority on Smash names vs. Mario names is a valid point. | #{{User|Bazooka Mario}} I'd say that Metal Box is likely the more familiar name at this point.

#{{User|Owencrazyboy9}} Per all. | |||
#{{User|Jigglypuff}} Although stated in Hazy Maze Cave in one of the signs that call the block "green block", calling it the Metal Box is fine enough. | |||
#{{User|rollerC}} Per Mr. L and Bazooka Mario. | |||
