Talk:World of Trophies
I think the beginning part of the story is kinda fanon.
- Actually, the trophy for the Ancient Minister confirms it. It isn't fannon. Paper Jorge ( Talk·Contributions)·
Oh. So I guess trophies play a large role in the game, huh.
- Very large one indeed. Paper Jorge ( Talk·Contributions)·
What is the source for the name? I know it has been called This World on the Dojo, but the World of Trophies?Knife (talk) 12:50, 6 April 2008 (EDT)
Article Name
Here is part of a message I put on User:Stumpers' talk page:
- I don't know if it's "this world" or "This World". The text written here says "In this world, trophies fight." But at the same moment, the header for the entry says "This World...". It may have been because they had to capitalize it because it was a header, but I still think it's signifying that it's the actual name of the place. So, while not 100% sure, I have moved the article to This World. I'll try bringing it up on the talk page again, to see what others' opinions are.
So, just checking if no one has problems about the name it is now, or if anyone has a good arguement to make it decapitalized. Marcelagus (T • C • E)
- There is that thing about the Ancient Minister trophy description: I hear it's the only "in-game" reference to the name of the world, and it's written, "this world" rather than "This World." The old Wiki standby has been to take video games above websites when it comes to these things, and considering thta the website used both proper and improper forms of the name, I think that, "this world" may be a better fit. Honestly, though, it's hardly an issue. Stumpers! 14:37, 6 August 2008 (EDT)
- Yeah, but when they decapitalize "this world", It seems like they're just talking about the particular world they are in(this world, that world). When non-capitalized, it's not really siginifying that it's the name of the place. Like, when I say "I live here", that doesn't mean the town I live is named "Here". But you're right, it hardly matters. Marcelagus (T • C • E) If we're going to name it "this world", however, we're going to need that conjecture template again, as it is not actually signifying what the name of the place is
- This name is pseudo-official. It's obvious that the world is intended to be nameless. I would go for World of Trophies. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:04, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
- Well... where does that name come from? Isn't it a fan word? :\ Marcelagus (T • C • E)
- We have conjectural titles, and this is one of them. It's descriptive. "This world" is nothing, it's not a name. It's only a phrase used to refer to the world, obviously not being its name. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:29, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
- o_0 Marcelagus (T • C • E)
- Ok; I glanced at the link and saw the title. As its seen on the top of the update, its called "This World...". --Palkia47 18:41, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
- And since the site's run by Nintendo we can say "This world" is canon... right? - Walkazo 18:45, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
- Cobold: Whether it's a name or not, it's official, if anything. "World of Trophies" is not. Marcelagus (T • C • E)
- "Official name" has two parts. Official, and name. "This world" is official, but it is not a name. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:55, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
- As its seen, though, the official name that was said was "This World" or "This World...". "World of Trophies" is not the exact name that is used for the Emissary. When first revealed, it was "This World..."; not "World of Trophies". Palkia47 18:58, 28 August 2008 (EDT) Made no sense, did it?
- "Official name" has two parts. Official, and name. "World of Trophies" is a name, but it is not official - Marcelagus (T • C • E)
- But we're looking for a name, and not an "official". This article will never be found by somebody looking for it because it uses a totally undescriptive phrase. When looking at the Dojo update, it's in fact part of the sentence "In this world, trophies fight." - Cobold (talk · contribs) 11:21, 29 August 2008 (EDT)
- Why does it have to be conjectural then? Why not just call it: "World of Subspace Emmissary," "World of Super Smash Bros. Brawl," or "World of Super Smash Bros." At least then you're avoiding conjecture as much as possible. Besides, Cobold: we can always make a redirect page at "World of Trophies" that would lead here. That's what we've always done previously whenever something has a name that few will get exactly (Super Mario RPG leading to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars for example).

how do you know its called "this world"? on reading the usage, it seems as if the writing "In this world, trophies fight." the writer is saying "in the world I am talking about....."
you see wot I mean? Lu-igi board 15:45, 10 March 2009 (EDT)
"World of Trophies" is both official and appears in the game itself, as a movie clip. At the first select screen of the game go to Data, then Movies, then Subspace Emissary, and the first movie is called "The World of Trophies" (This is actually the movie introducing the Midair Stadium, Mario, Kirby, Peach and Zelda as well as the World in general). -- AM666999talk 19:26, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- Therefore I think the article should be moved to World of Trophies & this page made a redirect.-- AM666999talk 19:35, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
