I'm not exactly sure what goes into this template? We have [[Clubba]], [[Koopeleon]], [[Spike]], and others. Shouldn't we just merge everything just as how {{tem|Mariogames}} puts everything into one nav template? This template is supposed to be a dumping ground for miscellaneous Koopas, but if that's the case, I think it's rather misleading since there is hardly anything in this template that indicates that, giving it an incomplete look. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 19:47, 3 November 2015 (EST)

I'm confused. Was this template meant to be for Koopa related species or Koopa characters?Knife (talk)

Uhh...both? Paper Jorge

Whys the text so small? Its barely readable. Mario riding YoshiXzelionETC

It's probably just to save space in the overall template. I can read it fine, but I guess it could be enlarged. YELLOWYOSHI398

Buzzy Beetles

Should we include them? They're not too far off from Spinys (which are included); plus there's Bony Beetles, which are somewhere in between. The Buzzy article also says they're more like Koopas than Beetles... - Walkazo

Nevermind, it says their "Koopa creatures" in their SSBB trophy so I'm including them. - Walkazo

Confused by this template

I'm not exactly sure what goes into this template? We have Clubba, Koopeleon, Spike, and others. Shouldn't we just merge everything just as how {{Mariogames}} puts everything into one nav template? This template is supposed to be a dumping ground for miscellaneous Koopas, but if that's the case, I think it's rather misleading since there is hardly anything in this template that indicates that, giving it an incomplete look.

I supose we could change the header to "Miscellaneous Koopas", but imo, the fact that it does only have Koopas that won't fit in any of the other templates in itself makes it clear that it's meant for these sorts of misc. Koopas. It's worked perfectly well in that capacity for seven years (since this unanimously supported proposal) with only two attempts to add representatives of other major species groups and one attempt to re-add Koopa Troopas, so evidently, it's not that confusing. I don't really think that merging all the templates into one giant directory is a good idea; if it were just species to deal with, perhaps it could work (I once made one like that or fun on my userspace), but with all the characters, it'll get pretty unwieldy.
