Do we really need an entire paragraph dedicated to bowsers penis?

Utterly ridiculous that this is in a wikipedia article. I fail to see why it needs inclusion. I understand its to highlight the extent of Nintendo's copyright claim system, but this is a childrens video game character. We do not need to be graphically talking about fetish porn.204.107.221.1(talk)21:54, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

American name origin

There’s nothing in here about what exactly the name Bowser is supposed to mean and why it was chosen as his American name. I’m interested in etymology so I always want to get to the roots of names. Has no one ever explained how it was picked?Alexandermoir(talk)06:59, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
