[edit] Those Mergers

Honestly, what is the point? Who added them? Enker, Quint, and King, are entirely seperate characters to Wily, theres no reason to merge the articles with this one.

[edit] William?

- Just in case... is Dr. Wily's middle name William for sure? Is it really just fandom?

Dr. Wily's middle name is W. We don't know if it's really "William" or not - Capcom never said. --Boco XLVII 13:43, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] End

Zero was neither originally good, or killed by X. As shown in MMX4, Sigma (then the leader of the Mav. Hunters) confronted the maverick zero in a cave which was when he (Sigma) became maverick and (probably) a virus. Zero was sent back to base and modified, and becomes the leader of the hunters before MMX1. Zero, dying in MMX1 and MMX5, officially either seals himself away in an ending of MMX6 (MMX6 and later were not under Keiji Inafune's control, who intended to end MMX in MMX5 so he could start MMZ) or continues through the Elf Wars to defeat Omega (as shown in the RTRZ Telos drama tracks. This means that THAT Zero is already a clone) and sealing himself away afterwards. The latter conforms better to the MMZ timeline. Sotek 7 July 2005 15:24 (UTC)

[edit] 200X and 20??

A note about the dates for the BN and the Classic series...I don't really think BN and Classic are related at all. I think Capcom has stated before that BN takes place in an "alternate" universe (thus unrelated) from the other Mega Man games. Date-wise, the original Mega Man and MM2 take place in 200X and they don't say 20XX until MM4 and MM5, so if you did the math with those dates, we could figure out that the original Mega Man actually took place around the year 2008, which is kind of interesting (and that is what Capcom actually said it took place in, not that it matters). Just thought you might find it interesting. --Yahweh 05:05, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Quote a source where Capcom said that, please. --Boco XLVII 17:03, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wily's Age

I added Dr. Wily's age (57) since it says Wily is 57-years-old in the ROCKMAN & FORTE game manual (Japanese), since that is an interesting note to put in here. --Yahweh 17:35, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dr. Weil is NOT Dr. Wily

I have removed references to Dr. Weil (pronounced Dr. Vile) from this article. He is not related to Dr. Wily and hence does not belong in this article. Wolf ODonnell 14:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wily's reason to be evil?

I noticed that the article says 'Shortly after the completion of the eight robots, Dr. Wily turned evil and reprogrammed the six "-Man" robots to do his bidding'. However, it did not specify WHY he turned evil. I beleive it was because he thought Dr. Light was taking all the credit for their work. However, I might be wrong. May someone clear up this confusion for me?

Edit: Indeed, I've noticed in the Mega Man's article, it mentions Wily being jealous of Light. I'll edit Wily's article to go with this. Cronosonic 09:33, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name Trivia

• Wily's name is sometimes misspelled in different (language or machine) versions of the games. His name is sometimes written "Wiley" or "Willy". This led to several people preferring to call him Doctor Willy, which is closer to a first name than the "evil" adjective.

Okay, this statement made absolutely no sense so I rewrote it to make it sound a little more reasonable. (user:HannuMakinen).

• It is popular fanon to extend his middle name as "Wiley" in honor of early translations.

Sorry, but I have never, ever heard of this before. It's a ridiculous thing besides. "Doctor Albert Wiley Wily"?! Tch. So I've nuked it. ~ Joseph Collins 06:36, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zero's History and Origins

Alright. Let's be reasonable about this... You find me a some place that has direct quotes about the history of Zero and Wily and I'll remove the tag I placed up there. As it stands, there is no cited proof that Wily put any sort of virus into Zero and Sigma was most certainly not infected when he punched Zero in the crystal in the pre-X1 flashback shown in Rockman X4.(Sigma rebelled against humanity all on his own as seen in Irregular Hunter X) There's also no real proof that Wily "implanted special memory parts to manipulate (Zero) indirectly so as not to awaken rebellious feelings" It's all theory and hearsay. There's a few other things I'd like to point out, but I think you get the drift. ~ Joseph Collins 06:47, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Add to list of Evil Geniuses?

He fills the role! How else does did he think of those damned blocks! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.9.223.94 (talk) 00:37, 15 February 2007 (UTC).
