Talk:Tiki Tak Tribe

Tiki Tak Tribe leaders have names or not?
Retro's gone through the trouble of naming all the other enemies and bosses in the game, but why not these guys? So if these seven (the three maraca ones are made up of one Tiki commander) aren't named, then what to do?


 * They get conjectural names.
 * If that's the case, it would be wise they be named after the instruments they're modeled after. BooDestroyer 18:01, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I thought about it once, if this is applicable:

 * World 1 = Kalimba (was NWR so sure about this one?)
 * World 2 = Maraca Trio
 * World 3 = Gong
 * World 4 = Stringy
 * World 5 = Piper
 * World 6 = Marimba (African type of xylophone)
 * World 7 = Bellows (the stretchy pumping part of an accordion)

So, Tiki Kalimba, Tiki Maraca Trio, Tiki Gong, etc? Anyways, the red-blue one seems to be a cross between a drum and a so-called kalimba (if I'm right), and the guitar-like is surely a banjo. "Piper" looks like a cross between a flute and an air horn (or something).

I don't think we need to create separate articles for each member. There isn't much to type about other than their appearance and which boss they possess.-- 21:27, 26 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree with Knife on this. --
 * Well, we have an article for each Star Spirit, Koopaling, etc. Why not for each Tiki dude?
 * Both of those appeared in more than one game and have individual characteristics (Attack pattern, power, ect). The tikis just appear to posess someone else and that's it. --Glowsquid 21:36, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Is it possible to just make an article for all those Tiki "ambassadors" at once? I mean with this, to cover Those instrument-like Tikis in one article, or so.

Okay yeah, now we got this. The Tiki Tak Tribe are a COLLECTIVE, are they not?

Just like the Koopalings. In which case, they should have just one article and sections within on each of them.

We don't need sections either. You can't compare this to Koopalings or Star Spirits because they all have official names, a different role in the story, different abilities, and unique personalities. These enemies aren't even officially named individually and they don't have any characteristics separating each other besides their appearances. I don't think creating a new collective article is a good idea either since the only thing separating these Tikis from the rest of them is that they possess enemies rather than fight themselves. Not to mention that the collective article would have to be conjectural as well.-- 23:49, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

I agree with Knife on this. 23:54, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I see now. In that case, no article.

Well, if they went through all that trouble to name all the other enemies and bosses but not these guys, then that's Retro's own fault. BooDestroyer 02:18, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
