Talk:Surfing Kinopio

Filename

Maybe we should go for a filename for this article, since that's better than a fan-name. The exact file that this Toad's sprites are in is called KNP_Surfing.Blue.bfres.lz. Every enemy and character in the game has a usually 3-character abbreviation (MAR for Mario, PCH for Peach, HEI for Shy Guy, SNB for Pokey, etc.), and the Surfing and Blue are to distinguish it from other Toads in the same directory. So it'd be called either "Surfing Blue Kinopio" or "Blue Surfing Kinopio." Would people be okay with renaming this article? Scrooge200 (talk) 23:26, January 23, 2020 (EST)

What color was KNP_Surfing.bfres.lz supposed to be, and does KNP_Surfing.Blue.bfres.lz include the icon? Otherwise my preference is the "Surfing Blue Kinopio", with "Blue Surfing Kinopio" as a redirect. LinkTheLefty (talk) 07:26, January 24, 2020 (EST)

KNP_Surfing.bfres.lz is just the model that the textures are applied to, it doesn't have a color. As there are no other surfing Toads in the game, I think "Surfing Blue" is kinda redundant and would prefer just "Surfing," but eh, I guess we have to go with it. The icon is not in the KNP_Surfing.Blue.bfres.lz file and I would assume that it's with the graphics of the world map. Scrooge200 (talk) 14:25, January 24, 2020 (EST)

Well if it is only used for one object in the game, and "Blue" is essentially just the palette, why not "Surfing Kinopio"? LinkTheLefty (talk) 17:22, January 24, 2020 (EST)

Yep, I'd like to go with that. All in favor of moving? Scrooge200 (talk) 21:47, January 24, 2020 (EST)

Sounds good to me. 21:49, January 24, 2020 (EST)

Hey so what was Surfing Kinopio called on the Mario Wiki originally before renaming him? I would like to know, Thanks! Shadic 34 (talk) 11:14, January 19, 2022 (EST)

It was just "Blue Chosen Toad", you can see it on the page history. Somethingone (talk) 11:21, January 19, 2022 (EST)
