Anyone whoplays banjo-tooie here? This stage has the same name as a world in this game. This trivia-worthy?--LandFish 20:12, 3 October 2008 (EDT)

The Banjo-Tooie level is actually called Jolly Roger's Lagoon, so no. -- Booster


Additional Images?[edit]

Why does this article have the needing more images thingy? It has plenty of images. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

Okay, what[edit]

So, for stars four and five, we mention their placement in the DS version in the description, while for star 6, we mention it in the title? Is that not confusing? We do things like this is various other pages as well, unless there's some logic behind it.

Article should be rewritten[edit]

This article should be rewritten like the rest of the other articles for the other courses in Super Mario 64 and its remake. Here is an example of how the article should look like. -TheUnknown67 (talk) 19:29, 22 June 2016 (EDT)

"Like in that course" phrasing in lead[edit]

I altered the phrasing in a section of lead from "like in that course" to "similar to that course", then it was immediately reverted back. I very strongly believe starting a sentence with "like in" rather than using another phrase (such as "similar to" or "as in") or alternatively joining the two sentences, is unclear and unprofessional. I would like some others' opinions on the matter, thanks. Dishwasher (talk) 01:40, August 7, 2023 (EDT)

If the sentence were to start with "similar to that course," the subject following that phrase would need to be the course that phrase is referring to, not the course's music. Otherwise, the sentence would say that the course's music is similar to the first mentioned course, which would be grammatically incorrect. Dwhitney (talk) 02:10, August 7, 2023 (EDT)
How's "as in", then. Dishwasher (talk) 02:15, August 7, 2023 (EDT)
Probably not, but maybe "similarly to" would work. Dwhitney (talk) 11:26, August 7, 2023 (EDT)
"Similarly to" suggests the courses' music/music mechanics are "similar" between themselves rather than one and the same. "As in that course, [this course]" is more clear. Dishwasher (talk) 18:32, August 7, 2023 (EDT)
