-'''Benny''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. Benny operates one of the [[Benny's Chairlifts|chairlifts]] in [[Razor Ridge]], alongside his twin brother [[Björn]]. Benny and Björn may be named after [[wikipedia:ABBA|ABBA]] members and songwriters [[wikipedia:Benny Andersson|Benny Andersson]] and [[wikipedia:Björn Ulvaeus|Björn Ulvaeus]], and björn is the Swedish word for "bear."
+'''Benny''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Benny operates one of the [[Benny's Chairlift|chairlifts]] in [[Razor Ridge]], alongside his twin brother [[Björn]].<ref>"''These two identical twins run the ski lifts on the mountains.''" - Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble instruction booklet, pg. 20</ref> Benny and Björn are named after the {{wp|ABBA}} members and songwriters {{wp|Benny Andersson}} and {{wp|Björn Ulvaeus}} respectively. Benny's dialogue during his initial meeting with the Kongs also references the ABBA song "{{wp|Take a Chance on Me}}".
-Benny assists [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] in their journey by allowing them to use his chairlift at no charge to cross over [[Barbos]]' lake in Razor Ridge, which connects the levels [[Buzzer Barrage]] and [[Kong-Fused Cliffs]]. Unlike the other bears, Benny has no real problem that the [[Kong]]s can help him with, nor does he have possession of a [[Banana Bird]] or hold the key to solving a puzzle.
+Benny has a minor role, more than the other Brothers Bear, as he does not have a problem requiring [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]'s help to resolve, or is a key for solving a puzzle. He allows the [[Kong]]s to use his chairlift service at no cost, which the Kongs are required to use to cross over the lake and continue to the next level.
