Talk:Worm hole

(First topic)

*yawn* So this article got recreated. Is there anyone else who has an opinion on this? I don't want to delete it again and make it look like I'm just taking advantage of my sysop powers in order to enforce my point. Time Questions 18:23, 20 May 2008 (EDT)

Talk:N Gang says all really. We don't need to repeat ourselves all over. Merge. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:31, 20 May 2008 (EDT)

To add, the Marioverse shouldn't even be mentioned here, or in any article. Use Mario (franchise) instead. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:36, 20 May 2008 (EDT)

I really have no objection. — Stooben Rooben 19:16, 20 May 2008 (EDT)

This article has alot more links now that i saw were needed and now this no longer only exists in just that one comic but even games.Δ ΔΔ Δ

...which still doesn't mean that it deserves its own article. Time Questions 02:07, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

Merge, I say.Knife (talk) 17:30, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

Soo... Was this ever decided? User:Pokemon DP/sig

Weellll... Don't these things appears in Super Mario Galaxy as obstacles? --Blitzwing 06:22, 15 June 2008 (EDT)

In DK Jungle Climber, worm holes have an important role (travelling to the odd worlds and Planet Plantaen) and are even named as such. The topic in general shouldn't be merged with N-Gang, since it isn't just for it, but game info needs to be added. --Grandy02 14:32, 15 June 2008 (EDT)

That's of course a different situation then. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 15:10, 15 June 2008 (EDT)

Did i make it worthy of not being a rewritten requested article?Δ ΔΔ Δ

Glorified disambiguation page

See the title of this section. This seems to be little more than a disambiguation page ramshackled together in prose. The ones that don't have articles themselves are for the most part entirely related to some other entity that does. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 03:50, April 15, 2019 (EDT)

Delete?

Came across this through random pages, and noticed the message above. Should we just delete this article? Technetium (talk) 21:55, December 10, 2024 (EST)

To us, this strikes us as more of a stub article. It's been around since 2008 (and funnily enough, its earliest version on record ALSO has it under questioning for potential deletion.) and hasn't grown much in that time. We personally think this is an article that should be expanded, given there are a few plot-relevant wormholes in the Mario series, namely the Squerp Hole in Super Paper Mario, the N-Gang comic "Freeze Frame", and apparently, DK: Jungle Climber is just littered with them, to the point where the final world is just titled "Wormhole". Though, there are a few questionable entries on this page, too, such as Vortex and Portal, which aren't really wormholes in the scientific sense, and also have their own articles already. ~Camwoodstock ( talk ☯ contribs ) 11:30, December 30, 2024 (EST)

I cleaned up the page; how does it look? Apikachu68 (talk) 03:59, January 30, 2025 (EST)

That looks a lot better! We'd be fine keeping it like this, honestly. ~Camwoodstock ( talk ☯ contribs ) 11:53, January 30, 2025 (EST)

Delete or move this page

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.

Delete page 10-1-0
There have been multiple attempts to delete this page, and the last one resulted in a rewrite that kinda makes it still look like a wastebasket disambiguation page. It also doesn't help that the world Wormhole from DK: Jungle Climber is named too similarly to this page, so I believe the best course of action is either to move Worm hole to have an identifier (most likely "generic") or just outright delete it.

Close up the wormhole (Delete)

1. Power Flotzo (talk) My first choice.
2. Wandering Overlord (talk) Initially, I was going to vote for the (Move) option, but after reading some of the below comments, I can see no reasonable basis for keeping this page around. Therefore, I believe the time has come for this article be vanquished from our galactic empire wiki.
3. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) - This article in a nutshell
4. Maw-Ray Hole (talk) Per all. They don't really differ that much from their real world counterpart, and ultimately seems pointless to give them an article.
5. Nintendo101 (talk) Per proposal.
6. The Dab Master (talk) Per all.
7. Altendo (Traitor • EX • Soul) Per Sheev Palpoplin Wandering Overlord.
8. EvieMaybe (talk) per all.
9. Camwoodstock (talk) We'd prefer a disambiguation, personally, but with only two subjects worth disambiguating between (Wormhole and Squarp hole) we'd definitely understand just using Template:Distinguish.
10. Mariuigi Khed (talk) Per all

Jump through the wormhole (Move)

1. Power Flotzo (talk) My secondary choice. As I stated above, my preferred identifier for this article would be "generic".

#Wandering Stargazer (talk) The page "covers" three different subjects, and only one is even officially called a "Worm hole." (As far as I can tell.) At best, I'd say we should get rid of the Super Paper Mario/Club Nintendo info, and make this page solely about the object from DK: Jungle Climber.

Comments (Worm hole vs. Wormhole)

does anyone know if the Jungle Climber wormholes listed in the article are a distinct gameplay object? if they are, i would prefer if this page was re-scoped to be solely about those, since the other two entries listed are a generic wormhole from a comic strip, and an object that already has an article. — eviemaybe (talk) 01:59, February 11, 2026 (UTC)

From what I can recall, the Spirowarp is used to open wormholes throughout the game that Donkey and Diddy travel through, and the Kongs enter and exit the first two levels of the Wormhole world through said portals at the beginning and end of the stage. If you want, I can edit one of the options or create an entirely new one. Power Flotzo (talk) 02:07, February 11, 2026 (UTC)

so the wormholes are just a byproduct of the Spirowarp? if so, they don't need their own article. — eviemaybe (talk) 02:16, February 11, 2026 (UTC)

Should have clarified: the ones in the first five worlds are a byproduct of the Spirowarp. The ones that bookend each Wormhole level are not. Power Flotzo (talk) 03:53, February 11, 2026 (UTC)

We feel like it'd probably be better to just turn this into a disambiguation page for Wormhole from Jungle Climber and Squarp hole, since that's... Basically what it low-key already is. ;P ~Camwoodstock ( talk ☯ contribs ) 05:46, February 11, 2026 (UTC)

Giving the page an identifier would be at odds with the result of this proposal, as "Wormhole" and "Worm hole" are not identical names. Hewer (talk · contributions · edit count) 12:19, February 11, 2026 (UTC)
