Talk:Wario

message: The cited webpage claiming that Wario was created by Gunpei Yokoi is dead. It is in the Internet Archive, though. However, is an article telling about Wario's creation and not even mentioning the designer (Hiroji Kiyotake) reliable at all? Also, from the same author came the character biography of Donkey Kong falsely claiming "It would have Donkey Kong capturing a princess"... which makes me question the reliability of it even more. I mean, the creator's name is one of the most important facts about a fictional character, and for this we shouldn't cite an article that looks like to come from a fansite. There are several unofficial sites (fansites, blogs, wikis, forums) naming Gunpei Yokoi as Wario's creator, but that's it. Any opinions? --Grandy02 (talk) 18:39, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Read the descriptions of Warioware and felt it was very much "in universe".  At a minimum I think it would be far better to say *first* that the cartridge included gyro/tilt sensor and then after that if it is really relevant or notable to detail the in game story it but I'm asking here should the in game story really be included at all?  -- Horkana (talk) 18:17, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

message: I think you should be able to reference most of that section with the references in List of Wario video games. It would greatly improve this article. Blake (Talk·Edits) 17:34, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Okay, so someone posted here, as well as at Waluigi, that Mike Judge has replaced Charles Martinet as Wario's voice actor...so I googled this and came up with nothing...is this someone's idea of a joke? Black Yoshi (talk) 20:49, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Is the whole bit about him being shirtless in the Promotion section a joke or what?  It really looks like some kid just adding info for shizz and giggles.  Is the consensus that this belongs or should it be removed?  Not trying to start an edit war so figured take it to TALK.Gamekeeper7 (talk) 15:22, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Not only are there a much greater amount of Wario memes that some people might use to vandalize this page, but since all the other major Mario characters got their pages semi-protected, I think it'd also be more consistent to add Wario to that list.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.43.209.25 (talk) 04:02, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

message: Is SNL really the only notable reference to Wario in popular culture? I'd assume he's been significantly referenced in other notable creations. See the Wario Fandom Wiki for some examples, particularly South Park and MAD. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 23:39, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

message: I noticed that one of the pieces in Further reading comes from The Onion. While the inclusion of The Onion in Wario's article is so... Wario, I'm not sure if it belongs on Wikipedia, though one may argue that the inclusion of a satire website is fine for a Further reading section. Thoughts?

message: @Nathan2055 @Cukie Gherkin @Glades12 @Igordebraga pinging top 4 authors. GAR  will start soon. Given the popularity of this character, there are a lot of issues. Concept and design section contains failed verification/OR, since most of it were badly sourced and should be expanded more sicne there are still plenty of sources that wasn't used yet. There are also several unsourced claims at the Appearances section, and lastly the Reception section needs to be rewritten a bit (especially the listicles at last paragraph about Smash Bros.) and should be expanded more with existing sources after searching it on google.
