message: I'm also moving it. It doesn't seem appropriate that it should be in the beginning of the Biography part, since his other three main adventures were before that. Abby724 04:21, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good idea, especially since a New Beginning, not technically a prequel to begin with -- it's a reboot; ignore everything that the series has established up to that point and start all over from the beginning.  --Stratadrake 07:44, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Spyro the Dragon (character) might be a better name for this article, especially since that's how he's referred to in the bolded title. See: Sonic the Hedgehog (character). Tezero (talk) 04:16, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merging sections 

message: I think that the lead should begin with  rather than , but  disagrees (see our discussion about it on his or her talk page—if you can handle the layout).
Seeing as the article is titled “Spyro (character),” not “Spyro the Dragon (character),” and the character is referred to as simply “Spyro” throughout the article, I don’t think that it makes sense for only “Spyro the Dragon” to be the bold name in the lead.
Spyro is referred to as both “Spyro the Dragon” and “Spyro,” but his most common name is simply “Spyro.” If anything, the lead should say “Spyro,” not “Spyro the Dragon,” but I don’t think it’s redundant to mention both, as both of them are his names.

replies: text: Per everything I stated here, there is no good reason to repeat the "Spyro" name in opening sentence more than once. It's already quite obvious from this page's title that he's more often referred to as that than "Spyro", or it would be titled "Spyro the Dragon (character)" instead of "Spyro (character)". There's also the idea of not using "the Dragon" at all in opening sentence when that's more part of the 1998 game's title than it is part of his name. On a side note, I'm a male user, just so you know. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:22, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spyro’s name in the lead 

message: The current image is from Enter the Dragonfly but a render from the original game would make more sense, possibly complemented by picture from the Reignited Trilogy as it's the last major change to his appearance in the franchise. Anyone else agree? Manes (talk) 17:32, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Changing the character image 

message: The relationship section as it is now doesn't really serve any purpose. It doesn't relate to Spyro's personality but rather reads as a synopsis of the original trilogy. It should either be deleted in its entirety or rewritten to better reflect how these relationships inform Spyro's character development. Manes (talk) 20:55, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Relationships section needs work 

message: The Relationships section as it is now states that there is an implied mutual attraction between Elora and Spyro in Ripto's Rage. I don't see why we need to speculate on the nature of their relationship when it was barely even addressed in the game and certainly not important to the plot or Spyro's personality (and I wouldn't be addressing it here if it weren't for the fact that my attempts to remove it have been reverted twice by the same user). Spyro failing to notice Elora puckering up for a kiss in the epilogue is not an implication of mutual attraction by the developers. It was a end-game joke that at best could be interpreted as Elora having feelings for Spyro that were evidently unanswered - which was made even more clear by the text "Spyro missed his chance with Elora". This article needs a lot of work and adding bits of original research here and there doesn't help. Manes (talk) 18:08, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
