:I was about to say that the "organic" Monkikki from ''Donkey Kong'' isn't as recurring and recognizable as Shy Guys, Ninjis, Fly Guys etc., enemies which have toy counterparts in the MvsDK series too. Also, for probably the same reason, we don't have separate pages for [[Nitpicker]] and its mechanincal counterpart, the "Bird". But I eventually changed my mind because the original Monkikki is inoffensive, while the MvsDK one can kill Mario. This is amplified by the fact that Monchee is mechanical, so it was "designed" to hurt, unlike the Monkikki, and this warrants a split. The Robot version should definitely have its separate page too. And since we are here, the same should go for Bucket Man/Dust Man, which are currently only mentioned in the [[Bin]] article. -- {{User:Super Radio/Sig}} | :I was about to say that the "organic" Monkikki from ''Donkey Kong'' isn't as recurring and recognizable as Shy Guys, Ninjis, Fly Guys etc., enemies which have toy counterparts in the MvsDK series too.

::The only thing is that Robokikki is basically the same as Monchee except it's just a little bit faster, so there's really not much else to say about it, though I suppose it's still different enough. On Bird, I think another split there would be unnecessary - after the Game Boy ''Donkey Kong'' birds (Kaibādo, Hōkusu & Kuro) were split from Nitpicker, the result became very confusing to navigate in my opinion. It makes about as much sense as splitting "alligator" from Snapjaw - even if they're known under generic names in the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series, it's pretty clear these enemies are visually, mechanically, and conceptually the same as the original ones from ''Donkey Kong Jr.'' On Bin, I think the part that should be definitely split is the ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' item, since it's obviously a different type of can (being three smaller drinking cans strung together). The enemy, eh, I think it's adequately covered in the article as-is; it saves us from piling on yet another foreign tag, and it's got conflicting names anyway.

:::Mind you, I have split the three bird species from Nitpicker because that's how it was done for other enemies in the Game Boy Donkey Kong | :::Mind you, I have split the three bird species from Nitpicker because that's how it was done for other enemies in the Game Boy Donkey Kong. [[Miira]], [[Penpen]], [[Aqua Man]], all behave absolutely the same. So do [[Chikuchiku]], [[Dotty]] and [[Rappy]]. But each was given its own article. Regarding Monkikki, yeah, I think we should split the original, inoffensive one from its dangerous toy counterpart. Robokikki as well, because it's a faster Monchee, therefore it has an additional quality, much like [[Firebird]] in relation to Nitpicker. -- {{User:Super Radio/Sig}} | ||
