== B ==
Wouldn't it be a bit easier to say that Kirby copys his opponent's B attack? Just saying. =D [[User:LOL|LOL]] 15:43, 29 April 2007 (EDT)
:That would be easier, of course. But I don't know if all character pages have listed their moves correctly yet. - [[User:Cobold|Cobold]]

== Tables ==

Does the forms section look better with the tables or without it? {{User:Great Gonzo/sig}}

==Forms==
Shouldn't his froms be moved to [[Swallow]]? {{User:Great Gonzo/sig}}

I don't think so, because after he uses his swallow technique, his ability becomes different and changes him physically, as well as replacing his Swallow ability. I think the neutral solution is to keep it here.{{User:Knife/sig}} 13:49, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
:'K Sounds good. {{User:Great Gonzo/sig}}

== Kirby Hats ==

Does the Kirby Hat trophy info belong here? -[[User:Dodoman|Mr. Dodoman]]

Sure, go ahead.{{User:Knife/sig}} 15:17, 12 August 2007 (EDT)

== Ball Kirby and Fighter Kirby==
The corisponding thropies, as well as the aformentioned Kirby hat trophies, should go here. [[User:Lego3400|Lego3400]] 21:59, 3 September 2007 (EDT)
:Agreed. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

== Form Pictures? ==
Should we add pictures for the various forms for Kirby? [[User:Panugget|Panugget]] 07:54, 20 December 2007 (EST)
:It would be good, but only the most recent forms, from Brawl (or from Melee if we don't have a Brawl picture yet or the character doesn't appear in Brawl). - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 08:45, 20 December 2007 (EST)

Ill try to get the hat pictures but they will be hard to track down.--Chibizombie

Ok, so I went to the official Japanese ''Melee'' site and found these four. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 20:29, 14 February 2008 (EST)<br>

A few more, also from ''Melee''... {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 20:40, 14 February 2008 (EST)<br>

Finally, there are countless ones for ''Brawl'' [http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/kirby.html here] on the DOJO site. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 20:42, 14 February 2008 (EST)

==FA==
Is this article good enough for FA? {{User:Super mario fan/sig}} 16:22, 20 February 2008 (EST)
:I don't think it qualifies for FA, when substracting the lists at the end it's rather short, but it can't be any more expanded. (Smash Bros. is not an argument though, the [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] article got featured) - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:25, 20 February 2008 (EST)
::Yes, it's short, but in no way is he a minor subject.  The definition of minor was Spiny Shroopa, so... but I am aware that it would be one of the shorter articles.  Is that bad, though?  Anyway, I haven't read the whole thing over yet, but what I've seen is good. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 16:27, 20 February 2008 (EST)
:::I don't know much about Kirby's role in the "Marioverse", but at least some info about his [[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]] comic appearances is needed in order to make him FA (I'm working on it). {{User:Time Q/sig}} 17:11, 20 February 2008 (EST)
::::No,it's OK, I was just wandering if Kirby could be one, because Kirby is only in the Super Smash bros series in the marioverse. I'm wandering if something can be a FA but not be part of the marioverse. {{User:Super mario fan/sig}} 07:41, 21 February 2008 (EST)

== Forms ==

Shouldn't the list of forms be at the {{fake link|Inhale}} article? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:09, 22 March 2008 (EDT)

I agree with you ''[[User:Blue Koop|<font color=navy>Blue</font color>]]''[[File:Strikers Blue Shell Artwork.png|35px]]''[[User Talk:Blue Koop|<font color=lightskyblue>Koop</font color>]]''<sup>[[Special:Contributions/Blue Koop|C]]</sup>
:I now see that this was already discussed above. Any different opinions to that? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:17, 22 March 2008 (EDT)

==Forms images==
I know this was mentioned before, but should images of Kirby's forms be on the article? Or Inhale? One of them? Now that many have been revealed on the Dojo. {{User:Garlic Man/sig}}

Haha! I uploaded every Brawl form! =D I'm not sure how to get the Melee ones though. =| You could ask [[User:Greenpickle|Greepickle]]. {{User:Mcoolister/sig}}

Fix your signature. It's screwing up the page. {{user:Mario jc/sig}}

==Ultra Sword picture==
Shouldn't someone add a picture for Ultra Sword? I put that  there a while ago. {{User:SKMM}}

== Melee Exclusive forms ==

I think we need better quality (or more zoomed in) for some of the Melee only forms {{User:ChillGuy}}

== Vote to unfeature? ==
Shouldn't that bit be removed from top of page? {{User|Garlic Stapler}}
:The proposal isn't finished. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}

== Alien? ==

I recent edit of Kirby put it in the category 'Aliens'. This was reverted and whilst I do see the point for the revert, it has got me thinking is Kirby an alien. I mean he isn't from the Mushroom world, or Earth, he does live on a completely separate planet, so I was hoping for some other users thoughts on this. {{User|Yoshi876}}
:He's more of a cloud like creature, so I'll just undo my edit until an answer is given. --{{User:A Paragoomba and the Koopa Bros./sig}} 17:59, 8 June 2013 (EDT)

::I would consider nonhuman characters from other planets to be aliens. [[User:SeanWheeler|SeanWheeler]] ([[User talk:SeanWheeler|talk]]) 15:30, 18 June 2014 (EDT)
:::What ''exactly'' is the definition of "Alien"? The source from the category page states, "Aliens are creatures from outer space or planets other than the [[Mushroom World]] or [[Earth]]." and I find it to be an ''extremely'' broad definition of an alien. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 15:35, 18 June 2014 (EDT)
::::If that's the definition used by this Wiki then yeah, he's an alien (alongside several other Nintendo characters like [[Samus]]). [[User:Peanutjon|Peanutjon]] ([[User talk:Peanutjon|talk]]) 15:39, 18 June 2014 (EDT)

== Pics for the Kirby abilities ==
I asked this on {{user|Shokora}}'s page, but I figured I should get more than one response for this. I'm updating the list of abilities Kirby gets from the characters in the ''Smash Bros.'' series, but I'm wondering if the pics I use should include ''every'' variant of the character from all five games, or just the most recent showing of the character (for example, Mario's would show from ''Smash Wii U'' whereas Young Link would show ''Melee'''s). The pics that don't end up being used would be moved down to a Gallery. Of course, this would mean that we'd have to update the pics every time a new Smash is released, but I can work on that if no one else feels up to it.

This isn't something I think I should make a {{tem|TPP}} on, as I would like to get started on this, so thoughts? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 23:06, 26 November 2016 (EST)
:I think a recent showing of the character is a good bet, even if we're going to have pictures from Melee and having to update every now and then. Heck, we can even go through upload revisions if we're concerned about bloating the amount of Kirby images we have. And no, this likely won't need a talk page proposal. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:09, 27 November 2016 (EST)
::Uploading a new revision is fine, but I'd like to show other games variants as well. [[SmashWiki:List of Copy Abilities|Or should that be left up to the SmashWiki]]? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:12, 27 November 2016 (EST)
:::Showing all game variants sounds like a tad overkill, but I'm not against that. If you wish, it's best to stick it to a gallery. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 15:31, 27 November 2016 (EST)

::::I personally think that unless the same form changes drastically in appearance between one game and another, we should just be showing an image from the latest game (favouring the higher-detailed Wii U screenshots over the 3DS version's, if available). Any separate screenshots of forms from earlier games should indeed be kept to the gallery. Showing screenshots from all games would be a nice thing to have, but honestly our NIWA neighbor SmashWiki already sufficiently covers this. So I think that we could something a little different here, and place <tt><nowiki>{{seealso|SmashWiki:List of Copy Abilities}}</nowiki></tt> at the top of [[Kirby#Forms]]. Thoughts?

::::{{User:Shokora/sig}} 17:42, 27 November 2016 (EST)
:::::I'll agree with you both. Having pictures of all variants would be cool, but yeah, SmashWiki already covers this well enough. It's decided then, I shall use the most recent Smash pics for the list and link to the page on SmashWiki. Thanks for the input! {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:46, 27 November 2016 (EST)

== Splitting this history ==

This page can be split, but he is from his own series. Should we give this page a pass? {{User:Derekblue1/sig}} 23:29, December 2, 2023 (EST)

== Latest appearance in Kirby series? ==

Should we have Kirby series in the latest appearance? We have the series in first appearance. [[User:XXMeta KnightmareXX|XXMeta KnightmareXX]] ([[User talk:XXMeta KnightmareXX|talk]]) 16:21, February 15, 2025 (EST)
:Seems like we already list third party characters' appearances in their respective games outside the Mario franchise like in the Sonic page. I included the information. {{User:Mario/sig}}
