Talk:Ridley

DRAGON???
How is Ridley a dragon? He looks more like an Aerodactyl gone bad. Oh, and dragons don't get reincarnated as robots. Georgedrake Z

I fail to see how Ridley looking somewhat similar to an Aerodactyl does not make him a dragon. Also, after he was beaten, Ridley was rebuilt with cybernetics, not reincarnated. -- Sir Grodus 01:22, 2 August 2008 (EDT)

Split Ridley into Ridley and Meta Ridley
Meta Ridley should really have his own article, as he is a separate entity from Ridley; it's really no different than Dino Piranha and Fiery Dino Piranha, or Gobblegut and Fire Gobblegut.

Support

 * 1) Per my proposal.
 * 2) Else articles like Midbus and Blizzard Midbus aren't split, right?
 * 3) It's more consistent with them split because Fawful is split from Dark Fawful, Fire Gobblegut is separate from Gobblegut, Cackletta from Bowletta, etc. Plus, aren't they two different creatures?
 * 4) Per all.
 * 5) Per all.

Oppose

 * 1) I am Zero! I get what you're saying but those monsters are separate creatures, not the same. Meta Ridley is a medically, biologically, advanced creature with cybernetics version of Ridley, they're not separate creatures, and currently we are merging a lot of alter egos together, but overall I think we should leave that for the Metroid Wiki. Zero signing out.
 * 2) Let's split Behemoth King from Behemoth as well then? Per Zero.
 * 3) - Per all. I'd like to see those other "forms" merged with the main articles anyway. Let Metroid Wiki focus on the many facets of Ridley: that's their job, whereas our coverage of his role in SSBB in both his forms is perfectly fine with this one article.
