Talk:Ankoopa

Name
For future reference, the Prima guide for ML:SS refers to the Ankoopa as a "giant turtle". The term's consistent for a couple of pages, but it's hard to verify if it's consistent throughout.
 * The NP guide also refers to them as giant turtles. It's a very generic term, to the point where it seems silly to consider it an official name, but with a lack of a source for "Ankoopa", is it worth renaming the article?
 * What's the context? 16:41, 5 January 2016 (EST)
 * I can't speak for the NP guide (you'd have to ask Smasher), but for Prima:


 * "A giant Turtle[sic] blocks the passage to a cave to the right of the watering hole. (And, no, the Hammers the boys receive won't do the trick.)" (p. 58)
 * "Use Fire Tickle to make Luigi stiff-arm the giant turtles blocking the pathway." (p. 97)
 * "Barrel through the giant turtle to the east. Continue east. Knock over the giant turtle and take the yellow pipe back to the surface." (p. 98)
 * Those are the only mentions I could find.

generic or not, "ankoopa" is an invented name that makes No Sense. I'd rather have it changed. --Glowsquid (talk) 17:16, 5 January 2016 (EST)

Would it be reasonable to put in in if not put it in Big Koopa Troopa? 17:20, 5 January 2016 (EST)
