[edit] Cleanup?

Why? It just looks like an underdeveloped article to me. --gakon5 (talk)

It being underdeveloped makes it look poor. -- A Link to the Past 00:38, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Acquired Abilities and Wikis

I think that the abilities should be descriptions instead of wikilinks. Several go directly to disambig pages instead of articles themselves, and while the needle attack may resemble sewing needles... I don't believe that the wiki itself accurately describes it. The wikis can be used in the description, but shouldn't be the only thing there. ie "Needle - Kirby's needle attack looks like a bunch of sewing needles flying from Kirby to the target"

Any thoughts? --Syrthiss 18:27, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Ugh, sorry, no. Whenever the GCotW is applied to an article, it gains these huge freakin' lists. - A Link to the Past (talk) 18:32, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

There, User:Larsinio handled it. Made it a paragraph instead of a big list. :) --Syrthiss 18:50, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Things

Umm, I did something for the worlds but I think it could be better-ed. Also any ideas for what might be some good screenshots or if one screen shot is sufficient woould appreciated. Oh yeah, does anyone know the intent behind the innovations section? I've left it blank so far. rydia 07:47, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Well, generally the Innovations would be what entirely new aspects of gameplay were introduced with this title. I think that it was added as a general boilerplate for videogames so people could have a common style, but obviously if we don't have anything to fill it we can toss it. --Syrthiss 12:05, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
There are innovations such as the assortment of mini games, and random stuff like the museum to gain powers, these details should be inlcuded --larsinio 15:19, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
The ability to steal powers originated here. - A Link to the Past (talk) 20:32, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Plot

we should include details about the overarching plot of the game, and how it builds upon Kirby's Dreamland --larsinio 15:19, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Concerning the move list

Is the move list completely appropriate? I think the list in itself is fine (although it's getting to be kind of large), but isn't outlining how the moves are performed going against WP:NOT? -- gakon5 (talk)

Agreed. I think it'd look better as a simple paragraph or two (e.g. Super Mario 64)... even though I'm actually the one who expanded it. KingTT 22:37, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
I could turn it into a paragraph if no one objects to it; it would make the article look better anyway. -- gakon5 (talk)
Oh, whoops, I went ahead and did so. If anyone objects to why that section should be a list instead of a parapgraph, do say so. In addition to the move list, I went ahead and sort of rearranged the article. I think it looks better than it did before; it was basically a process of putting some sections under others (the main ones now being Story, Gameplay, In-Game Areas, Trivia, and External Links), in an effort to better organise the article. -- gakon5 (talk)


[edit] Change 'Final Stage' to 'Fountain of Dreams'

I think that in the list of in-game levels, the Final Stage should say Fountain of Dreams. In the game, at World 8, it says Fountain of Dreams as the name of the world. Should this be changed? -- Dasune 06:37, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Abilities

I noticed the abilities when invoking the Roulette actually cycle through in a specific order. Thus from any mix it is theoretically possible to select any ability provided someone's timing is perfect. I've updated the article with this info. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.179.63.230 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] romanji

Added the romanji in italics for the Japanese name [星のカービィ夢の泉の物語]. I figured some people who cant read Japanese might want to be able to actually read the original name ;)

p.s. i'm new with editing, if i botched it i hope someone fixes it for me, thanks

[edit] Slowdown

This game had a lot of slowdown throughout the game. I think this should be referenced in the article.

[edit] Glitch

There's information about a World 1-2 glitch to see HAL but I've never heard of it and can't find any information on how to get it. Clarification?
