It's come to light that the name Hero Mode does not exist in an official capacity: instead it is a transliteration from Japanese and leftover from teasers pre-release where official names had not been announced. Many fan sites before release adopted this name, hence the proliferation.
The official name for single player is "Octo Valley" shown by the official website, Iwata Asks, and Prima. Therefore, the Hero Mode article should be merged and redirected into the Octo Valley article and all links corrected. This will include renaming categories Hero Mode to Octo Valley.
I can get my bot to do it so it won't take any editing time: however it is obviously a big change so a heads-up or discussion is necessary. User:Kjhf/Sig 13:42, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
A wiki that forgoes accuracy for the sake of people's inaccurate whims is an ugly sight to behold. I'm all in favor of using the correct name. Plus, changing the name won't really throw people in a loop. Most people I talk to just call it "single player". – EspyoT 13:44, 27 June 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I agree. I mean look at the map on the GamePad while you're in Inkopolis. What does it say; Hero Mode? I didn't think so.
