Editing Talk:Wendy

Uh.... Wow. This article is just terrible. It's filled with about 90% useless things, and is all presented in a very confusing and incredibly disjointed way that barely makes sense.

While the facts are here, they are cobbled together and is incredibly bad.
I don't even have the time or patience to set about fixing this, but if someone could re-write this from scratch, it'd probably look a heck of a lot better than it does.

== Sprite ==

For the Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga section, I thought that this [[Image:WendyMLSS.jpg]] was the correct image not this [[File:SPP Beta - Wendy Animation.gif]]. {{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} P.S. That's why I uploaded the image!

== Wendy '''O.''' Koopa == 
What does the O. stand for?  {{User:Time Turner/sig}}

:It is never revealed, but she's named after Wendy O. Williams, a famous musician whom she gets her named after. Ludwig von Koopa is another good example, he gets his name from '''Ludwig von''' Beethoven.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
::So what does his O. stand for? {{User:Time Turner/sig}}

:::Nothing I guess, and do you mean '''her''' O.?--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
::::Yes I mean her. My bad. {{User:Time Turner/sig}}

:::::Wait, wasn't he Ludwig '''Van''' Beethoven? {{User:Supermariofan14/sig}}
::::::Actually, [[Wikipedia:Ludwig van Beethoven|yes]]. And Williams' "O." stands for [[Wikipedia:Wendy O. Williams|"Orlean"]]. {{User:Time Q/sig}} 07:22, 3 January 2010 (EST)
:::::::So her name could be Wendy Orlean Koopa. But that is speculation which is not allowed on this wiki so the O. will remain a mystery. You could ask Nintendo if you want. [[User:Technickal|Technickal]] 10:13, 4 December 2011 (EST)-

==Princess?==
Since Bowser is king, wouldn't that make Wendy a princess?
{{User:Dry Bowser rules!/sig}}

WRONG! Remember Shigeru Miyamoto did that little interview and said that the Koopalings were actually '''NOT''' Bowser's children? {{User:InvincibleZtar/sig}}

:Depends on the definition of Prince/Princess (and yes, there other types of Princes/Princesses besides those who are next in line to kingship/queenship due to blood ties). If you go by the definition of simply a person who rules over a sector of a kingdom and reports to the ruler without necessarily being a relative (in other words, similar to a Governor), she would technically qualify as a princess under that. [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] ([[User talk:Weedle McHairybug|talk]]) 07:05, 4 November 2012 (EST)


Also because she is King Koopa's daughter in the show  she can keep her princess status that way. ([[User talk:jawsisra|talk]])

== Reference ==

The second reference takes you to the Japanese website.{{unsigned|Magic Koopa Guy}}
:And there's a translation in the reference. {{User:LeftyGreenMario/sig}} 18:40, 10 May 2013 (EDT)

==Can she have a chinese name?==
If there is a chinese name, I think 温迪 should be good. --[[Special:Contributions/220.255.211.219|220.255.211.219]] 00:49, 5 September 2014 (EDT)

:We don't ''make'' the names, we just report them. Unless a Chinese version of a game (or a tie-in website or whatever) she's in has actually provided 温迪 as her name, we can't add it to the page. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 11:20, 5 September 2014 (EDT)

== New voice in games ==

Regarding a recent edit that was made, the voice for Wendy was different in Mario Kart 8.  This is the actress' resume, which lists the role in Mario Kart 8 <http://www.ashleyflannegan.com/#!documentary/ck0q>.  I haven't seen any of the Koopalings in Smash so I can't attest to Ashley Flannegan being the latest portrayal or not.

== The 30th anniversary books' bios of Wendy O. Koopa ==

After a hiatus, I'm finally adding the bios for Wendy O. Koopa from the 30th Anniversary Books! Of course, like before these are just transcriptions with a bad tentative translations based on online translators, so help is needed! There she is called ウェンディ.

'''Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.'''

Characters' pages bio<br />
おしゃまでおてんば。紅一点のクッパ七人衆のひとり。<br />
''Precocious young girl [that acts as a] tomboy. The only female of the Koopalings.''<br />

Super Mario Bros. 3 enemies section<br />
W3のボス。画面内を飛び回るリングを使って攻撃してくる。<br />
''Boss of World 3. Attacks with a ring that flies around the screen.''<br />

Super Mario World enemies section<br />
チョコレー島のボス。レミーと同じだが、部屋のバブルが増えている。<br />
''Boss of Chocolate Island. Same as Lemmy, but in the room there are Zigzag Lava Bubbles.''<br />

New Super Mario Bros. Wii enemies section<br />
W4のボス。画面内を跳ね回るリングを出してくる。<br />
''Boss of World 4. Throws rings that bounce around the screen.''<br />

New Super Mario Bros. 2 enemies section<br />
W3のボス。部屋を水で満たし、踏めないようにする。<br />
''Boss of World 3. Fills the room with water to avoid getting stomped.''<br />

New Super Mario Bros. U enemies section<br />
フローズンだいちのボス。氷上を<span class=explain title="すべ">滑</span>りながら、リングを飛ばしてくる。<br />
''Boss of Frosted Glacier. While skating [literally, sliding] on ice, she throws rings.''<br />

'''Super Mario Memorial Book'''<br />
クッパ7人衆の紅一点。女の子らしく、頭に水玉もようの大きなリボンをつけている。<br />
''The only female of the Koopalings. Girlish, she wears a big bow with polka dots on her head.''<br />

Now, I had troubles with 「おしゃまでおてんば」 and 「女の子らしく」, the first should state that she's both a precocious girl (「おしゃま」) and a tomboy (「おてんば」), the second appears to state something like girlish, even though the Encyclopedia underlines that she's a tomboy.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 17:13, 14 April 2016 (EDT)

==What does Wendy say at the end of her battle in the Japanese version of ''Paper Mario: Color Splash''?==
We now have also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMpkExKh1Bg the Japanese video of the battle with Wendy], and this time there are no big surprises. Still, it would be interesting to understand what Wendy says in the end:<br />
<br />
「でもアンタ、<br />
けっこう見どころがあるわね。<br />
さすが マリオってかんじ。<br />
まあ せいぜい<br />
がんばりなさいよ。<br />
フフン、じゃあね!」<br />
<br />
If I'm reading it correctly, Wendy says that she likes Mario, but I would like to know if I'm getting the meaning correctly.

== Um....==
Who Is She Referring To In Her Quote? Can't someone please edit it?
{{unsigned|108.46.243.200}}
:She's referring to [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] and [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]]. But the quote only links to Mario, so something should be done about that.

== Some questions were attempted ==
{{closed|
Wendy is not wearing lipstick, it's most likely the colour of her lips. Just because they don't match the colour of her muzzle doesn't mean it's lipstick. [[Special:Contributions/90.216.251.105|90.216.251.105]] 11:37, February 25, 2025 (EST)
:The page is only pointing out the resemblance to lipstick, not actually stating she wears lipstick. "gives the impression that she is wearing pink lipstick" {{User:LadySophie17/sig}} 14:38, February 25, 2025 (EST)

How does it point any resemblance to lipstick!? [[Special:Contributions/90.216.251.105|90.216.251.105]] 14:47, February 25, 2025 (EST)
:...I mean, for one, it's a completely different color from her muzzle (which is pale yellow-ish). That part is kinda obvious if you ask me. If she were (alluded) to have no lipstick, it would either have to be the same color as her muzzle, or they would have to be a more saturated version of her muzzle's color (maybe a bit orange-y, like with [[:File:Daisy Render MP6 2.png|Daisy]]). Why do you think these are supposed her natural lip colors? You think the same in regards of [[Candy Kong]]? {{User:Arend/sig}} 15:25, February 25, 2025 (EST).

Please revert repeated attempts of questions by this user rather than respond. Thanks! {{User:Mario/sig}} 11:37, April 12, 2025 (EDT)
