Editing Talk:Diddy Kong

Shouldn't there be a section that talks about Diddy Kong Racing DS since it's already out? We don't need it in future appearances anymore do we? --[[User:Taj The Genie|Taj The Genie]] 23:42, 10 February 2007 (EST)

== Nephew or friend? ==
Is Diddy Kong Donkey Kong's friend or nephew? {{User:Knife/sig}} 16:10, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
:I'm pretty sure hes his Nephew, I could be wrong though. {{User:Xzelion/Signature}}
::He's both. {{User:Plumber/Pignature}} 16:14, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

:hmmm... Wikipedia says he's his "little nephew wannabe", whatever that means. Also, how can a gorilla be related to a chimpanzee? Different species.{{User:Knife/sig}} 16:16, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

:Does anyone have access to the Donkey Kong Country manual, preferably the original? It might have something that could settle this debate once and for all in it. -- [[User: Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]]

:I remember Diddy calling DK his uncle once on TV. {{User:Plumber/Pignature}} 16:30, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

:Diddy Kong is DK's nephew, "little buddy", and his sidekick in the games. They are both apes however, so they can be related. [[wikipedia:Ape|This article]] says that gorillas and chimpanzees are part of the same family, making it possible for them to be related. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|What's with all the monkey-business?}}
::Diddy can't be a chimpanzee nor another sort of ape. Apes don't have tails, or at least no tails as long as Diddy's, so Diddy is a monkey. I wonder why he is called Donkey's "nephew". --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 10:27, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
:::It wouldn't be the strangest thing for two species to be in the same family.  Think of Peach: in Super Mario RPG she has relatives who are Toads.  Anyway, what we need is a quote regarding their relationship rather than speculation over whether it's possible in the real world.  I used to try that but it gets you nowhere... trust me. :( {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 21:30, 1 June 2008 (EDT)

:There's no evidence that Diddy is DK's nephew in the video games. Maybe DK is Diddy's "uncle in arms" or something. {{User|SavedPrincess}}
::Someone included [http://web.archive.org/web/20020819225350/www.rareware.com/the_site/rare_games/new_games_digest/dk64_digest/dk64_cl_copy.html this] as a reference for him being a nephew, but we can't access it, so it shouldn't be included. [[User:Tyciol|Tyciol]] 19:35, 15 January 2012 (EST)

:The species have nothing to do with relation. For all we know they just were lazy to think about this kind of thing. {{User:Mario64fanatic/sig}}

:THEY'RE KONGS!  They aren't apes, monkeys, chimps, etc.  They are just Kongs. {{unsigned|Doddfather}}
::Actually I would say that 'kong' would be the name of a simian subspecies that includes both apes (donkey) and monkeys (diddy). [[User:Tyciol|Tyciol]] 19:35, 15 January 2012 (EST)

==Finished Wikifying?==

Since there's no tags on the article, is this article done being SMWikified? {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|If Diddy sang, would he sing a ditty?}}

== Remove/ Re-Write Mario And Sonic At the Olimpic Winter Games Category? ==

All it says is "Diddy Kong Will Appear in This thriling sequel." Should we delete that? All I heard about was that [[Donkey Kong]] Will be in that game.
{{User:Mariofan459/sig}}

Yes, unconfirmed data should be deleted.--{{User:Knife/sig}} 14:55, 28 September 2009 (EDT)

== Dixie ==
Wait... if Diddy is Donkeys nephew and donkey is dixies cousin wouldnt that make dixie related to diddy? - {{User:Yoshi104/sig}}

[[Dixie Kong#Interactions_with_Other_Characters|Dixie's page]] says that she is is [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]'s best friend.
{{User:DK and Diddy Kong vs Bowser and Bowser Jr./Sig}}

Where does it say Donkey and Dixie are cousins? Dixie is cousins with Chunky and Kiddy. But if Diddy is Donkey's nephew, and DK Jr. is the real DK's kid, that means that Diddy and DK Jr. are cousins!--{{User:DKPetey99/Sig}}

'''Yes''' - I think Diddy kong is DKs nephew, Alot of sources say it. --[[User:123johnpaul|123johnpaul]] ([[User talk:123johnpaul|talk]]) 20:36, 20 December 2014 (EST)123johnpaul

::Just so we're clear, the current edit doesn't remove sources indicating that Diddy is DK's nephew or try to deny that it happened at a certain point or two, but when it's got just enough (if not more) sources contradicting the notion or finding it inconclusive, then it should probably be cleaned up and left in a less broad section of the article rather than scattered around pretending to be a defining attribute. It pertains to his relationship to DK, so it's there. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 22:54, 20 December 2014 (EST)

-== Why has a section for Dr Mario World not been added yet. ==
-He is in the game now so I really don’t know why that hasn’t been added the article still includes it in the other appearances section even though he is now been officially added to the game.

-What is Diddy's theme instrument on the character selection screen in Diddy Kong Racing?[[Special:Contributions/73.84.81.28|73.84.81.28]] 07:58, January 3, 2021 (EST)
-== Should there be more images? ==
-I honestly think this page is lacking a lot of images here. Take for example the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|DKC]]'' section which do not even show ''screenshots'', which in some instances, show more of the character than their official artwork. I'm tempted to place a More images template on this because I feel it needs it.
