I don't remember if we actually had this discussion layed out of a page somewhere, but I can't find such a page in any case, so I'll bring it up here. I'd like to revisit the issue about the family and scientific names of the Pikmin 1 enemies, since nobody else responded to ShadowRaptor's talk page when he brought it up.... Where'd the names come from? Fans? Game guides? {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

:Well nobody here knows Latin (Or it is very unlikely). So it wasn't translated by someone. So it probably came from a guide...

::They were all added ages ago. For this page, it was added in [http://pikmin.wikia.com/index.php?title=Puffstool&diff=next&oldid=2339 this] edit. It seems most were added by The Pikmin God in early April 2006, so I have no idea where they could have come from. I found the names in other places too: [http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Wildlife-of-Pikmin#_ref-Blowhogs_0 here], they even have Pikmin God/Lord for Mamuta/Progg. Also: [http://www.gamehiker.com/entry.php?id=19&ser=pik], [http://www.gamehiker.com/wiki/index.php?title=Goolix]. No idea where they originally come from.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

::::The Gamehiker one was added 3rd November 2007 (added '&action=history' to URL). The Nationmaster site's encyclopedia seems to be an old version of Wikipedia (an image of every page from some time back), but the article no longer exists on Wikipedia, and I can't see if it ever did without admin access.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

::::::I think the only reason we didn't before was because we were in the process of adding infoboxes. I say we should remove them for now, and if it turns out that they come form an official source, we can always add them again. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
