CVG To-do:
To-do list for List of characters in the Star Fox series: edit · history · watch · refresh
  • Make stub-ish descriptions of all the characters with standalone articles (e.g. Fox McCloud, and link the standalone article with {{main}}
  • Merge the Star Fox 2 characters out to the Star Fox 2 article?
  • Merge the members of Star Fox here? This needs to be discussed: do Peppy/Slippy/Falco need their own articles?
    Merge the remaining characters here? Only Fox, Andross, and Krystal currently have standalone articles.
  • Merge the characters who only appear in one game or only in the comic (Scales, Vixy, etc.) to the game/comic article?
  • Greatly reduce all of the useless clutter/speculation in some of the character sections.
  • Reduce the number of page-cluttering, fair use-violating images.
  • Rewrite plot summaries to be shorter and use an out-of-universe style (particularly present, instead of past, tense).
  • Make this article clean, clear, and believable.

[edit] Added info on Panther's Jap name

Apparently, Caluroso translates to hot, warm, enthusiastic, or energetic in Spanish. I dunno why they have to change it to English, but it fits Panther well. XD —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.107.85.202 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Leon?

Where's Leons picture? It has dissapeared! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.69.210.3 (talk • contribs).

It was deleted because the source URL could not be found. Thunderbrand 18:20, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kanji / Kana for Star Wolf?

Hmm it looks like the kanjis for the three members are missing. I thought they can be found in the Japanese sites?

[edit] Panther's name talk

I was told to see the talk page about this issue, but it appears there's no discussion about it. I think it should be listed as Caruso, since that is the most recent version of his name. If someone doesn't dispute this in the next little while, I'll change it. 199.126.137.209 05:35, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

See the archive link at the top of the page. It should probably be changed to "Caruso" as the offical site lists that too. Thunderbrand 13:59, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No more individual pages?

I see in the to-do list that it states the stub-inclusion of articles on all the main characters here, as well as links to the individual character pages, but now it appears as though the character pages have been changed into redirect pages, with far less information in the sections here as well. For example: The information on Falco's name source and his rivalry with Leon were both lost in the transition, and have not since been recovered or reimplemented. Is this the final form, or are things still being moved? Just worried since there was no discussion of this on Falco's talk page. --Blinkstale 04:04, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

There was a pretty big discussion about it in this page's archive. There is a link at the top of this page. Some stuff had to be trimmed down when it was moved here. The stuff on Falco was pretty much speculation, since his name origin wasn't sourced. His "rivalry" with Leon is a very minor thing. Thunderbrand 14:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
Ah, thank you, I wouldn't have thought to look there. Should there be anything linking to major discussions of the past on this page, kind of like a miniFAQ? That way, the same discussions don't continually rearise after you guys delete them from the discussion pages? Just a thought. --Blinkstale 00:03, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] do a barrel role

why does going to that page redirect to here? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 194.80.204.29 (talk • contribs).

Because Peppy's entry is here. There is no justification for its own page. Thunderbrand 14:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Do a Barrel Role is redirected to here because it is a trademark line for Peppy Hare dating back to the original Starwing on the SNES Guess who i am 08:35, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually, a barrel roll is not exclusive to Star Fox. It's an aircraft maneuver term.

[edit] Somebody clean up Leon's page.

It looks like a four year old wrote it. And wrote it poorly for a four year old at that. Gah.
