User:ShadowKirby
Hii! I am ShadowKirby! I'm just your average eccentric editor, obsessed with easter eggs and trivia. I have some experience as a FANDOM wiki editor, and now I'm here!.. Making typos every other edit (I swear I don't do it on purpose).

Games I have played
ShadowKirby wonders if the unknown reader has played these games... | |||

Kirby's Pinball Land | 2 | Top score | I thought there was an extra mode. |
Kirby's Adventure | 2 | Main Mode 100% Incomplete Extra Mode |
Played on Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition |

Kirby's Dream Land 2 | 2 | Main Mode 100% Boss Rush |
Played on Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition |
Kirby's Block Ball | 1-2 | True Ending (without all top scores) | The easiest of last century's spin-offs, yet it's still hard. |

Kirby: Canvas Curse | Technically 1, practically 5 | 100% (without perfect Sub-Games) | It's fun until you realize you need high ranks for medals. Not a fan of the Sub-Games, Story Mode is fun though |

Kirby Super Star Ultra | 3+ | Crown% (with Helper to Hero) | The easter eggs keep me interested |

Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition | 3+ | King Trophy (not all optional races complete) | Dream Collection was a great game, a special game, a great game, a special game... |
Super Kirby Clash | ~1 | Level ~20 | Taking this slow and steady. |
Kirby and the Forgotten Land | 1 | 100% (without max upgrades, with Target Times; Spring Breeze) | I'm so glad I did this. |
Never forget
Serious editing
Some content was modified with the intent of bringing it back if the situation calls for it, so to make sure it's fresh in everyone's memory, here it goes, with no harm to the maintenance pages:
- "Glitches in Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe" and "Glitches in Kirby's Blowout Blast" removed from games' and glitches navboxes. Should regularly check if anyone actually finds a glitch.
- Glitches in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Glitches in Kirby's Dream Course have several editor notes explaining why the maintenance templates are present.
- Notes for a name meaning request left in Kurron and Peperon pages until further notice.
- User:ShadowKirby/Notable sandboxes contains a large portion of WiKirby's public drafts and therefore is subject to frequent updating.
- As for mine, see User:ShadowKirby/Sandbox for a hub.
