Talk:Power Badge (Yoshi's Woolly World)

More Badges?

I absolutely know that there's 3 more power badges. But I can't find any sources showing me where they are, because I'm too lazy to play through Yoshi's Woolly World again to find them. So if anyone finds them, can they please upload them and edit the table so they're included? Monkehz 10:01, 27 September 2015 (EDT)

Should this be the "main" Power Badge page, since it's more important than the SS item? I'm reminded of Big Shell, which is the name of both a TOK useful item and a BIS clothing item, with the TOK item taking priority. Scrooge200 (talk) 18:19, June 21, 2021 (EDT)

Yes. We don't need an identifier to distinguish this from something that doesn't have its own article. 15:59, June 22, 2021 (EDT)

Split "Power up Ground Pound!", "See Hidden Items", and the watermelons

Title. "See Hidden Items" is comparable to Magnifying Glass (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island), which has an independent article from the Special Items. Meanwhile, since Power up Ground Pound! seems to affect each boss differently, it probably pays to have a spot to read them out all at once, and it's too tangential from regular Ground Pounds for me to want to burden that page with a list of all Woolly World bosses.

Actually, split the watermelons too, since "watermelon with a propeller on it" is distinct from "watermelon" and there are some key notes about what they do. Also, the way they're currently grouped currently leads to some mixups regarding game mechanics on the watermelon pages. Notice how Super whatever Watermelon and All you can eat whatever Watermelon are in the same paragraph and pretend they have the same mechanics when in reality the latter are not immediately in Yoshi's mouth? I'll fix it later, but keeping them merged because of only having "minor" differences seems to have created a problem. Salmancer (talk) 13:35, January 4, 2025 (EST)

I suppose since the distinction between each watermelon badge only which watermelon is on call, which doesn't really change the propeller, so the watermelon badges can all share one page. Salmancer (talk) 18:02, January 5, 2025 (EST)

Make a page for each badge

This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit this section or its subsections. If you wish to discuss the article, please do so in a new section below the proposal.

Make a page for each badge 5-0
It's simple, i think having a page for each badge is the right thing to do, as it's consistent with how we handle special items in SMW2YI. This way, we can see the name in other languages, the comparable for each badge, and we can go into more detail about each one. I have the physical game, so i don't have problem writing them.

Also, several lists have already created pages for each item listed. This is just following the change.

Comments

As much as I love the idea of "Pull items towards you with magnetic force!" being a page title, I think the badges in this game are most comparable to the badges from Super Mario Bros. Wonder, which we don't split. Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 04:06, June 25, 2025 (EDT)

Then maybe we can do a proposal to split those badges. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 08:53, June 25, 2025 (EDT)

I support PrincessPeachFan idea of also splitting the SMBW badges. Sorbetti (talk) 12:46, June 25, 2025 (EDT)

SMBW badges should absolutely be split. they have even more reason to be split than these, actually, considering they are also unique moves. — eviemaybe (talk / contributions) 12:02, June 30, 2025 (EDT)

I dunno if I like "has a proper noun name" as a valid argument for splitting pages, which is what "we can see the name in other languages" basically is. And is there anything stopping us from adding an extra column to the table for the comparable Special Items? Salmancer (talk) 15:21, June 29, 2025 (EDT)

Technically, yes, it is possible, but i personally find it much better to have it organized on each page, so the reader finds what they are looking for directly and precisely. Sorbetti (talk) 16:47, June 29, 2025 (EDT)

Power Badge already redirects to this page, so why the identifier? Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 21:49, August 16, 2025 (EDT)
