We do have the 3RR working against us (no more than 3 reversions per article for 24 hours.. that gives us 3 more edits than him, though!!)TIGHT

Kinda funny. I just had a Wiki-P fiasco with Kirby-centric happenings!


I was paging through the KDL enemies list to get reminded what Coner and Peezer looked like when I ran across Skuller's entry. It said,

"A well armored foe that throws blades at Kirby."

Funny, that sounds like Sir Kibble, methought to me-self. Sure enough, I look an inch higher and notice, in Sir Kibbie's entry, the exact same description was present. A victim of copy+pasting neglect, a common scourage I am all to familiar with. Luckily, I eventually remembered that I could fix the quip ("Oh, right, I work here!"), but here's where it gets funny:


Now, it having been a while since I've played Dreamland, I couldn't remember what Skuller did. So, I Google it. Naturally, the two top entries pulled were KRR and, of course, Wikipedia. Surely, they could tell me what Skuller did... right?

"A well armored skull that throws blades at Kirby."

Way to make it not look like blatant site harvesting, hapless Wiki-adder. Way to go! >:/


Needless to say, I fixed it at both ends of the spectrum with the assurance of a game FAQ at, well, GameFAQs. I doubt anyone will question it. After all, it says the same thing as it does at KRR, and they didn't question it before!

Hey, unless I am mistaken, isn't there some official Squeak Squad art of Dedede?

We could put that on his page, couldn't we? I already updated Kirby's image, and I was just wondering, as I can't seem to find the image that I am thinking of.

I've got the Dedede pic, I'll scan it...



I can get it bigger. Will this do?


And what do we do about the Lolo/Lala/Lololo/Lalala thing? Just make a Lolo and Lala page with a sub part about it about Lololo and Lalala? I mean the only difference between the characters is the name...

Hey Ivyna, didn't you say you put up a summary about metaknight's battle tactics? What happened to it?

I wonder if summaries like that should be done for all bosses?

Maybe not? I can't edit a wikipedia to save my life, just make suggestions.

And I did a little bit of the different fighting styles for guys like Kracko that appear in multiple games, but the games really aren't my area of expertise!

I'll read it, thanks.

I guess you're right, re-occuring bosses would be easier than the stand alone's huh?

- The picture size is fine; I'm going to edit and resize it anyway...

- I'm not entirely sure about the Lololo/Lalala bit. You'd probably have to go and find some images of how the two originally looked like (as Lolo/Lala), and then talk about their original series, blah blah etc.

Sorry about not being around for the Wikiproject thing if that's still gonna happen-- I had like, and still do have, 1000 pounds of Physics homework to do. And that's not including the geometry I don't get. E:



For Lololo and Lalala, I mean, they're important Kirby characters, but as Lolo and Lala, they still had games even up to 1999 or so, I believe. I don't think two seperate articles would be effective and just get merged anyways.


I'm guessing make it Lolo and Lala, and have sections about Appearances in the Kirby video games and Appearances in Kirby: Right Back At Ya!, and hunt out someone who's played Eggerland that can help fill in the first parts. I would note somewhere that today they're best recognized and known for their Kirby series appearances (might need citation that obv. doesn't exist?), in the very intro to the article.


And on the talk page, "Has it actually been confirmed that Lololo and Lalala are the same characters as Lolo and Lala, and not simply references? 199.126.137.209 09:34, 7 February 2007 (UTC)"

no clue



EDIT: http://www.wikiknowledge.net/wiki/Image ... andBox.jpg

A 2000 game box? The fact a difference in appearance is maintained might imply they're not the same..

" Waddle Dees are some of the most common enemies in Kirby games and have appeared in nearly all of them, usually as enemies but occasionally as friends."
(Waddle Dee page)
I might be wrong, but I thought Waddle Dees where in all of the games, not nearly all of the games. Could someone tell me what games they weren't in? Please?

_________________

Maybe they're being nit-picky about the fact that N-Zs were used in K64 instead of Waddle Dees. Still, there's the Dee you befriend at the end of stage one, so Wiki DID screw up on that one. They also might be counting Smash Bros as a Kirby game, which is wrong. Curse you, Wikipedia.

i noticed a lack of names of the games when they were released in europe. just a suggestion

lololo and lalala in Fun Pak look pretty similar to the anime...

Buh? What Wikipedia are you looking at?

All of the games that have different names in Europe instead of the American title have the European title listed on the page.

anyway, i've written something for the romk page lol.

I noticed that on Wiki, Chemeleo Arm is listed as Ghemeleo Arm. C is cooler than G.

HOOYA!!

If you look closely at the boss's name in the Arena, you'll see in the American version they spelled it with a G.

It's Ghameleoarm originally too...

That's the most idiotic thing I've ever heard. There are some detailed articles about Japanese games.
Take these for example.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_Ultimate_Stars
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu%21_Tat ... eat_Agents

granted they're really popular imports, they were released in Japan and have an article. In fact, pretty much ALL of the Japanese release only games have some sort of short entry. Just cause it wasn't released overseas doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I officially hate that guy.
