*'''[[Necrodeus]] is not confirmed to have created the [[Sun Stone]]s.''' As above, this misinformation stems from [[List of HAL Laboratory Miiverse posts - Kirby: Triple Deluxe|a Miiverse post]], in which [[Shinya Kumazaki]] theorizes that the Sun Stones could have been created by "someone who dislikes the sun", robbing Floralia of sunlight by turning it into jewels; he never specifically names Necrodeus.<ref>{{Cite|In this game, you cultivate the Dreamstalk in order to progress. This requires Sun Stones and Grand Sun Stones - jewels that contain the power of the sun's rays. So the sun, which is of course a star, is a key item in this game! Perhaps someone who dislikes the sun has tried to rob Floralia of its light by transforming that light into jewels..?|[[Shinya Kumazaki]]|[https://web.archive.org/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKmEi-SK-A Archived Miiverse post]}}</ref> Necrodeus dislikes light and wishes to steep the world in darkness. However, the quote specifically focuses on ''sunlight'', relating to ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''{{'}}s recurring theme of stars and celestial bodies (i.e. the sun and the moon), rather than light in general. Furthermore, when addressing sunlight, it specifically mentions the sunlight of Floralia, and does not mention darkness as a factor at all. These aspects point to the quote more likely referring to Queen Sectonia, who is heavily associated with moonlight and jewels, and has a more obvious motivation to control the sunlight of Floralia specifically (to prevent the Dreamstalk from growing).

*'''There is no confirmation that [[Gigabyte Grounds]] is [[Onion Ocean]] but dried-up.''' While it could be inferred that Gigabyte Grounds is some ocean or sea of Popstar but dried-up due to the song name "[[Dried-up Sea (theme)|Dried-up Sea]]", this is simply a theory, and hasn't been confirmed, and there is no particular reason to believe that Onion Ocean specifically is the ocean that dried-up.
*'''There is no confirmation that [[Gigabyte Grounds]] is an existing sea from the series, but dried up.''' It is commonly theorized due to the name of "[[Dried-up Sea (theme)|Dried-up Sea]]" that Gigabyte Grounds could be the dried-up remains of a previous ocean level, such as [[Orange Ocean]], [[Secret Sea]], or [[Onion Ocean]]. However, this has not been confirmed. Since Popstar's geography changes regularly from game to game, there is no particular reason to believe that any of these oceans specifically are the ones that dried up.
