Hi, I like Kirby, and I like consistent information, thus I like to make people have consistent info about Kirby.
You will see me mostly adding certain specific things of a certain game, but you will also see me putting files around, and maybe writing some articles and stuff.
My native idiom is Spanish, so you will see me around Names in Other Languages Spanish things and such. I am not perfect with English, so you may see me doing some grammar mistakes on that side. :D

Game completion
Here is/will be my first table that I probably make/made from scratch.
As you can see this will cover which Kirby games I have completed and such.

Archive of things to have in mind
A list of notes about wiki editing, consisting of either mistakes that I made before to prevent me of doing them again, or things that certain people have noted somewhere, while not necessarily correcting an error of mine. I would recommend you checking this, mostly if you aren't so fond with WiKirby's way of doing certain things and/or you aren't so fond with some English grammar specifics.
There are a lot of things that people have noted that I haven't put here. I will try to make this a long list of specifications to have them somewhere. I will be updating this later.
- From a revision of Megaton Punch: "pits" is grammatically correct.
- From a revision of Boss Battle (theme from Kirby Super Star):
- When referring to the theme that that same page if describing, it is mentioned as "the theme" instead of "this theme".
- The unplayable, movie-like scenes on Video Games are called "cutscenes" and not "cut-scenes".
- Album numbers on theme pages probably shouldn't be added.
- From a revision of Kirby Pupupu Train Eki-melo Collection: "a unique" is correct, instead of being "an unique". (proof, proof and proof: This is because what determines the usage of "a" or "an" is not exactly if the letter itself is a consonant or a vowel, but instead if the sound is of a consonant or of a vowel, as the "u" syllable in "unique" is pronounced with a "yu/yoo/yew" sound, thus the letter to take in question is the "y" and not a "u".)
- File names shouldn't contain punctuation and special symbols, especially on the end. (Credits to Vipz)
- Files that aren't, but will be used could either be given the Not-unused template, or be used in User pages to prevent them to be deleted. (Credits to StarPunch for the former and Vipz for the later options)
- Pages that you want to create, but of which you don't have too much info yet, could be pre-created on personal sandboxes. (I have seen this applied several times, but MetaDragon directly recommended that to me, so credits to her)
- From help regarding two revisions of Shooter Cutter:
- Words following colons (:) could start either with or without captions, both are valid; but a colon is not normally followed by a capital letter in British usage, though American usage often prefers to use a capital
(even though both usages are in the same idiom). (Credits to StarPunch about the fact that both are valid and to University of Sussex by confirming that and about the British/American thing) - A semicolon (;) sometimes works better than a colon, but using a semicolon means turning the text following it into a complete sentence to make it correct. (Credits to MetaDragon about the first fact and StarPunch about the second one)
- Using an em-dash (—) can be used to separate sentences while keeping the section following it a fragment instead of a complete sentence, unlike the semicolon. (Credits to LeoUnlimited and StarPunch) (Leo mentions that "this kind of punctuation is more informal by nature" while The Punctuation Guide mentions that "the dash is less formal than the colon". I suppose that Leo was referring to the usage of the em-dash, while TPG was referring to the sentence itself)
- Words following colons (:) could start either with or without captions, both are valid; but a colon is not normally followed by a capital letter in British usage, though American usage often prefers to use a capital
Things to do
A lists of things that I want to do. If you are searching for something to do, and are evading the existence of Maintenance, know that help with any of this is appreciated ;)
- See if there is a version of the cover of Kirby Pupupu Train Eki-melo Collection bigger than 770 x 774.
- Structuring an argument about the you-know-what thing that bugs you on both Green Greens (theme) and Kirby's Triumphant Return, and then use that argument to discuss it on a talk page or plainly doing the edits yourself.
- If the argument is complex enough to be discussed on a talk page, then also figure which talk page of the two would be the more ideal one for that.
- When editing those pages with the respective info, take advantage of being in "Kirby's Triumphant Return" zone to state in the Havoc Aboard the Halberd page that the former theme is featured in the later. But state that in a stylish way, probably in a new "Composition" section.
- Also, rolling around themes that feature a triumphant return of a pink demon to see which aren't mentioned in said page. Both Rainbow Curse's arrangement of "Crystal Field Area" (and thus, of "Green Greens") and Planet Robobot's arrangement of "HAtH" naturally include "K'sTR", but not of them are mentioned in the article page. "A Dream of Clouds" includes it too, but not "Dreaming of Skies at the Fountain of Rainbows"; the "A Dream of Clouds" sections stops before dicing into "K'sTR". The final section of "City Trial: Rowdy Charge Tank" before looping (which could be said that it is the fourth main section, I think) is similar to "K'sTR", but it could just be a heavily remixed version of "Green Greens"' second segment instead, so figure which of the two is it; this segment isn't present in Kirby's Air Grind's theme, for instance. Both "Green Greens"' second section and the first main melody of "Rainbow Resort" are very similar to "K'sTR", so see if the later is indeed inspired by some of the formers in some way and put it in the page. Browse around to see if there are more of said cases, and insert them in.
- Capture and select good images of the Rainbow Islands and the DL3 Popstar areas in Slam Hockey. This exists, also.
- Get a high quality, centered version of this thing
(or steal that one if there isn't other option)and upload it on Kirby: Planet Robobot Original Soundtrack at least. (I suppose that we could alwaysextortkindly ask the original uploader to scan a better version of it)
Insert images on the respective pages
There are some "groups of images" that feature a lot of images of characters or items, but those images aren't in the page of the respective characters of items. So the point is including every of the next images on the pages of the things that they represent (for example the Qbby sticker is already on the Qbby page, so the point is doing that with every image.):
- The Keychains (Inserting the Simirror Keychain on the Simirror page, etc.)
- The Planet Robobot Stickers (Inserting the Number 5 Sticker on the- Wait.)
- The Super Clash Stickers (Inserting the Maglor Sticker on the
MaglorMagolor page, etc.) - The Celebration Pictures (Inserting Bad Boss Brothers in the Dark Matter, Yin-Yarn and other Final Bosses, big etc.)
- The Kirby JP Twitter commemorative illustrations (2016/2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021) (Inserting this thing on the Nago and others page with some cute, but still serious description, very long etc.)
- Doing that on Kirby and the Rainbow Curse/gallery, but in reverse: Track every image of every thing across different pages, like renders and screenshots of characters, and put them in the gallery (like, not even Elline's images are there). Also, creating captions for the images at the beginning of the page.
- The same thing with Kirby Star Allies/gallery, but primarily with stage screenshots. (Rainbow Curse have stage screenshots but lacks renders. Star Allies have renders but lacks stage screenshots. Huh.)
- Kirby Mass Attack, my belovehated:
- Capturing images of every stage, from Green Grounds - Stage 5.
- Writing stage overviews for every stage of the game from the one above.
- Check the game's gallery for every image that is there but not in the articles, like this thing that isn't in the Bigger Stactus page.
- Figure if that PBS is actually pink, or is one of another color that is just flashing pink because it is getting pumelled.
- Inspect some weird website images that have pre-release content, like this thang in where Whispy Woods's stage has a star that isn't present in the final game, or that Pink Bigger Stactus image linked above that have a background not seen nor in the normal fight, nor in the Survival Rush fight. There is also that one web game that have the Grapes artwork, the Icy level artwork on this t h i n g, the demo, and pain.
- Roll around images of Kirby's Dream Land 2 by almost the same reasons as Mass Attack, as so: Diving in game pages to put images on the gallery, flying through the gallery to put images like these on game pages, and bamboozling through the game's image category aaa to put images on both.
