Talk:Scuttlebug

Offical Artwork?
Is there any offical artwork we could put instead of the scuttle bug's stand? Just asking. We could make the article look better if there was offical artwork. If you find any offical artwork, post it here and I'll put it onto the article.

The Gold Scuttle Bug
Should we make a page for the Golden Scuttle Bug, which appear in a minigame in Mario Party DS ? It can seems stupid but, look: almost all the golden version of normal enemies have a page: http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=gold&go=Go Fire-Luigi 06:20, 18 April 2012 (EDT)

Klamber's Name
Even though "Klamber" is listed as "Scuttle Bug" in the Nintendo Power guide, he's still technically a different enemy. His name is カサカサ (Kasakasa) in Japan. Vent (talk) 15:23, 10 August 2012 (EDT)


 * Then it should get a different article.

Spoing and Sprangler
Who decided they were Scuttle Bugs? Not only are they not named "Scuttle Bug" in the only existing English guide, their names in Japan are バネグモ (Banegumo) and ツリグモ (Tsurigumo). Vent (talk) 15:30, 10 August 2012 (EDT)

This article is a mess.
Cmon guys, just because they are all spiders doesn't mean they are the same thing. That is like shoving goombas, toads, and super mushrooms into one article e_e

Split Spoing, Sprangler and Klamber from Scuttle Bug
I was looking around the wiki when I noticed Vent's comment above: Spoings and Spranglers are not named Scuttle Bug in either the English or Japanese guide versions, which indicates that they are both separate enemies, regardless of appearances. The other comment he made was that Scuttle Bug/Klamber(currently Scuttle Bug due to naming priority policies) was named differently in Japan. Even though I believe that the English name takes priority over the Japanese name, I figured: "Why not just kill two birds with one stone?" I'm suggesting 4 courses of action here: 1.Split Both(Spoing/Sprangler into one article, Klamber into another) 2.Split Spoing and Sprangler Only 3.Split Kalmber Only 4.Do Not Split

"in the case of Klamber, the NA Nintendo Power guide takes priority over the Japanese guide(I believe-if I'm mistaken, please correct me.) "

If a creature has a different name in the Jp script and looks/act reasonably different, they get a separate page even if the English name is the same (ex: Goomba (Super Mario World)). I feel the SMS "scuttle bug" looks and acts differently enough to be one of those cases. --Glowsquid (talk) 23:16, 20 October 2012 (EDT)
 * Alright, thanks for clearing that up. I'll change my vote.--Vommack (talk) 12:39, 21 October 2012 (EDT)

The only thing that I'm wondering about is the name of the page for the Klmaber/SMS Scuttle Bug. My guess is that it's name would be Scuttle Bug(SMS), based off its official NA name.--Vommack (talk) 16:17, 23 October 2012 (EDT)

I'm withdrawing my vote for the time being, as I want to clear up some concerns first.


 * 1) Why are you splitting Sproing and Sprangler into a combined article? If they're both officially named, don't they both deserve an article?
 * 2) As pointed out by Vommack above, the article concerning the Klamber will be named Scuttle Bug (Super Mario Sunshine), not Klamber, correct? That would be right by the Naming Policy. -- 1337star (Mailbox SP) 16:58, 23 October 2012 (EDT)
 * The SMS Scuttle Bug(That's it, that's what I'm calling it from here on out, whether you like it or not) should be called that, yes, and if that's what it takes, I think we can get Sproing and Sprangler separate articles.--Vommack (talk) 17:03, 23 October 2012 (EDT)
