Talk:Animal Friends

I'm unsure what category to put this page in, maybe characters and allies? Also should Banana Birds be counted as Animal Buddies? -- Sir Grodus

Maybe Category:Terms would do? And yes I would consider Banana Birds animal buddies because Animal Buddies are Animal Buddies or Animal Allies and don't even have to be playable to be considered one.--Knife, the guy who just asks questions, but does nothing on the wiki 00:10, 8 December 2006 (EST)


 * Banana Birds are not animal buddies. Banana Birds are collectibles that don't help in the actual levels. -- Son of Suns

I could maybe include them in the "Others" section, as they do aid you at the end of the game and you can ride them. -- Sir Grodus


 * When do you ride Banana Birds?!?!? -- Son of Suns

If you get the games "best" ending the Banana Birds will pick you up and take you to the Banana Bird Queens lair. -- Sir grodus

You must remember, Animal Buddies don't just have to help, they can be damsels too so it is an animal buddy. Since I'm here, want me to create a Template for you?--Knife, the guy who just asks questions, but does nothing on the wiki 23:26, 12 December 2006 (EST)

Maybe, it could probably be seperated into three sections: rideable, unrideable and other. -- Sir Grodus

Nah maybe I'll separate it into just Rideable and Other. Other and Unrideable are pretty much the same thing.--Knife, the guy who just asks questions, but does nothing on the wiki 23:32, 15 December 2006 (EST)

Jungle Buddies
DK Jungle Beat refers to Animal Buddies as Jungle Buddies.

This could be mentioned in the article and a redirect could be made. -- Sir Grodus


 * So no move? I thought that we moved pages to their latest names.

Well, the term "Animal Buddy" is still widely used and has been used in at least a dozen games, while "Jungle Buddies" has so far only been used once, we could make a redirect and maybe have an "also known as Jungle Buddies thing" in the opening paragraph. -- Sir Grodus

Template
Shoudn't there be an template for animal buddies?

Name
Shouldn't the article titles have their full name, such as Salvo the Slime? 16:11, 1 September 2007 (EDT)

Ghost Rope
I think we should take the ghost rope off the list of possible animal buddies. First, it's not an animal or character, it's just an object with a face that makes sounds. Second, a lot of them appear on the same level and third, the ghost barrels are technically the same thing yet they are not in the list.
 * I agree. It's just some rope that regularly disappears to make the level more difficult, not a "buddy" in any way. --Grandy02 14:42, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Something I've always wondered
Why are the animal friends' article names "X the Y" instead of just "X"? RickTommy (talk) 16:36, January 21, 2020 (EST)
