Talk:Koopa (Nintendo)

message: Noting an absence of reference to the "Dry Bones" undead Koopa character here, I inadvertently found it in the Koopa Troopa article.  I think it will take a stronger argument than I can produce to keep these two articles separate and distinct; already they are largely redundant, with no solid distinction made between Koopa Troopas and the non-Troopa variety of Koopa.
:I agree the two articles needed to be merged. I have taken the liberty of doing that. - 07:20, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You were right that my merge eliminated a lot of important information.  I have edited the "koopa troopa" article so that it only discusses koopa troopas.  The information that it contained about other types of koopas I have already transferred to this article.04:55, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That makes sense.  Good solution.  Indrian 05:54, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

text: OK, the two articles should not be merged. They are two different subjects. This article just has a lot of information that should only be specific to Koopa Troopas, and that may be causing some confusion. I am going to clean some stuff up. --Kaleb.G 07:50, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Um... it seems pretty unlikely that thise noises are actually translatable, so this section is pretty misleading. Especially as in most cases Koopas appear to speak the same language as everybody else anyway. I suggest the section is removed.

message: I was reading the Koopa Troopa page on MarioMonster.com > http://www.mariomonsters.com/archives/character.php?id=246 and well it says that some people say that they are an entirely different species due to them being armored.  But due to they fight for Bowswer and walk on two legs, they are a close relative to the Koopa Troopa.  Mr. C.C. 18:01, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
