If we just had one source that said "Spikes", I'd agree with you. I specifically waited until I had a second source as confirmation before moving the page. Dean Sitton just said that he didn't remember and couldn't find it in his notes. - [[User:Hivebrain|Hivebrain]] 03:38, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Spikes

I found two independant sources which referred to this as Spikes - the Sonic the Hedgehog Annual and the packaging for some collectible figures. I wouldn't have moved it if I wasn't sure. - Hivebrain 02:40, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Iron Sonic had apparently not found any instance of the name in the Annual, which was the primary basis for the renaming of the article. Are we sure that the collectible figure packaging is a credible source for the name of the enemy, though? As I recall, Dean Sitton explained that Yadrin in particular never had an official localized name, and it certainly wasn't listed in any manual. We would need to determine the credibility of the packaging before we could make any solid judgments as to whether or not it's fit to determine the name of the article. --Tweaker 08:49, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
