:LinkTheLefty's argument above is outdated, as the naming policy was updated in January to prioritise official websites over guides. Of our three sources for this enemy's name, Portal wins both recency and source priority, so why shouldn't we use it? This is nothing like Banzai Bill using that name in a ton of games for years - our only source for "Moneybags" is one old, "rife with mistakes" book. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 11:24, April 30, 2024 (EDT) | :LinkTheLefty's argument above is outdated, as the naming policy was updated in January to prioritise official websites over guides.

::No more rife with mistakes than portal, which has just as many blatant misspellings per available word as the guide does. The singularization this time is a potential mistake; "moneybags" is essentially slang for a rich person, like the Spyro character and how the Monopoly guy is named Uncle Pennybags.

:::In that case, Portal should take priority per naming policy. This is a case where I feel like there's no way of knowing if it was truly a "mistake" or not, since both of the names make sense, and I'd rather just go with the much more recent and higher priority name than pick favourites. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 11:53, April 30, 2024 (EDT) | |||
