:If they deleted the first one, you can bet they'll delete any others you make. Wikipedia doesn't need to go in-depth into topics which have their own wikis. It's likely that they frown upon such advertisements. I don't know what their policies are exactly, but perhaps it would be possible to sneak a link to the Pikipedia into the [[wikipedia:Pikmin|Pikmin]] or [[wikipedia:Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]] pages. Chances are those will be deleted as well, but you never know. Either way, if someone's interested in the wildlife of Pikmin (and are internet-savvy), they can find their way here.

::Crystal, go away.

:You need Java, Quicktime or VLC to play the embedded OGG files here - click 'more' to choose which you have.  As for why we can't use the YouTube video, it's not as legal as using the file with [[template:audio|this template]].  I'm sure there's no real problem, but it also introduces a dependence on that video not being removed.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
::Trouble with OGG is that basically nobody comes here with the software to play it - only after asking why the hell you can't hear the music do people usually learn about it. This was actually brought up on Wikipedia, but OGG supporters couldn't really come up with any advantages over using that format over more common WMV, MP4, or MPG formats, and yet still refused to budge from their standpoint, saying "How hard is it to click a link and download a file?" not realizing that people shouldn't be ''expected'' to have to download extra crap which they're NEVER GOING TO HAVE TO USE ANYWHERE ELSE OF THE WHOLE FRIGGING INTERNET just to listen to ten-second clips of music. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 20:23, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
:::No, the reason it's used is because it's free, and really the only decent lossy free format.  Wikipedia won't use proprietary format's as the encyclopaedia itself is free, and it's a non-profit organisation, and would incur fees or something.  And there's no need for any Ogg-playing software: the player uses Java, which the majority of internet users have, or optionally Quicktime or VLC, which many don't.  Only problem is Java's slow; a flash-based Ogg player would be nice, but I don't know if MW has any such extensions.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
::::Whoops, hm, for some reason I was thinking video.... Anyway, fees for using MP3's? From who? It's just a file format, and it's used by like every media player, but the same can't be said of OGG. Windows Media Player doesn't come equipped to play music on that format, and I'm not sure about you, but I wasn't able to play it on Firefox either the first time I encountered it, despite having Java ''and'' Quicktime. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 18:51, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
:::::No idea why you had problems with it, but that's a problem with the plugin rather than the format.  And yes, MP3 is a proprietary format and, as such, is owned by some company that does actually charge fees for large-scale implementations (maybe MP3-player-makers have to pay?).  Not sure why Windows doesn't support Vorbis out of the box, though maybe it just doesn't like to support things that seem 'unofficial' or non-mainstream, the only reason things are that way being because people have in their minds the concept that if you're not paying, it's not a good product.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
::::::The problem is that the format isn't mainstream enough, which isn't bad in of itself, but it does mean it isn't as widely accepted by media players as other, more common formats. Also, I'm amazed someone can actually own the rights to a file format, but I guess you learn something new every day. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 07:27, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
==Enemy Strategies==
I have noticed the lack of differences between all the enemy strategies. I felt this was the best place to talk about it. Anyway, when I'm looking at pages for enemy strategies, 9 times out of 10 I find one of these two strategies:
*:A: Throw Purple Pikmin at it.
*:B: Swarm it with Purple Pikmin.
We need some variety here! The boss pages usually don't have this, but pretty much all regular enemy pages do. We should try and fix this. [[Special:Contributions/67.165.116.102|67.165.116.102]] 20:19, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
:Those are the two strategics that work most often, although swarming is a bad idea, as you can lose a lot of pikmin on certain enemies very fast. Do we have a page for the Dwarf Bulborb Sweet Spot? [[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[File:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 12:30, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
::They should have strategies for when you don't have purples, though (apart from Waterwraith, obviously), especially since a few might need to apply to Pikmin 1 as well.  And yeah, sure, go fix them.  For a lot of enemies, specific strategies without purples do exist.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
==It is not Pikmin 1==
On most pages of this wiki, PIKMIN, the game, is called Pikmin 1. There is not one in the title and I'm sure that if people paid attention to how the word is used, they'll figure "They're talking about the first Pikmin game". I want to get replace the parts where it says Pikmin 1 to Pikmin or PIKMIN, whichever you prefer.------

:First, it's not PIKMIN; a lot of games have capitalised names on the side of the case.  Second, I think it's better to use 'Pikmin 1' than be a bit ambiguous.  Clarity over preciseness, IMO.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
I call it PIKMIN on habit, I can't help it. And I guess you're right, it's going to bother me when I see Pikmin 1 though. Oh and can you tell me on my talk page how to get rid of the dashes when I post my signature?{{User:Pikmin1254/sig}}

== Piklopedia vs Enemy ==
I think it's dumb to make this article double as an article about enemies and an article about the Piklopedia. In other words, we should have an '''Enemy''' article. We have a ''very'' sloppy list of enemies here, and it should be fixed. Besides, we have enemies mixed with plants and... the whole thing is a mess. Same thing should happen with [[Treasure Hoard]] vs Treasure. '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 10:41, 22 March 2011 (EDT)
:What would you put on an enemy article that isn't here and isn't about specific enemies?  What's sloppy about this page?  Why do you need a list of enemies not mixed with plants?  And Treasure Hoard contains only treasures, so I don't see the need for another article. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>
::Well, shouldn't an article that explains what enemies are and how they behave exist, for the sake of completion? There are a couple of things that can be said about the other creatures that roam the planet that aren't Pikmin. As for the rest... I should probably read the article again before describing some of its problems... I don't know, it just doesn't feel right to not have a page specifically about enemies - one of the games' major aspects. '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 12:09, 22 March 2011 (EDT)
:::I agree with Espyo. The first time I saw this article I was surprised at its lack of relevance to the Piklopedia. The Piklopedia doesn't tell the HP, weight, Story Mode locations, or Challenge Mode locations, and yet these are listed in the article. The "Pikmin 1" section would look better as a list, and the "Pikmin family" section seems out of place here. I also suggest that the [[Olimar's notes]] and [[Louie's notes]] articles be linked to from this article, preferably in a separate section about notes. The table should be changed to a numbered list. A page about enemies could include the table as it is now, maybe showing each enemy's [[Forum:Enemy hitpoints|code names, regeneration speeds, and attack power]]. Listing caves would also be nice. The table could also be taken out all together, as most, if not all, of the info on it is included in infoboxes, or it could be moved to a separate page called something like "Comparison of enemy statistics". {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}
::::Yeah, it seems like this page was intended to serve as a sort of collection of every living thing in the games.  As it says at the top, ''This article also doubles as a list of enemies in the ''Pikmin'' series''.
::::So, you're saying this page should be about the in-game Piklopedia and just give a list of entries in it?  And so we'd need ''enemies'' and ''plants'' pages with tables like the one here.  Yeah, okay.
::::I think, then, that we should keep "Pikmin family" under "See also", here, and make a note about there existing ''Pikmin''-only enemies not in the Piklopedia and link to [[:category:pikmin 1 enemies|the category]].  I think the only thing in the first part of the "Other" section not related to Piklopedia entries is ''egg'' (unless you think the Honeywisp's sack things are eggs), and so we could keep that as a list, maybe? <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>
:::::Right, I knew I had a reason to call this page sloppy. Volatile reminded me: we have ''Pikmin'' enemies mixed with ''Pikmin 2'' enemies! That's certainly not what a Piklopedia article should be about. That said, it seems the general opinion here is to make this page talk about the Piklopedia, how it organizes enemies, etc. and create another page for enemies. Correct?

::::::Yeah, that's what I was thinking. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}

==Abbreviate locations==
I think we should write, eg.

Why don't we compare the two styles in the Sandbox? Other than that, my thoughts are: the current style is okay, but it still looks kind of messy, considering how those tables you added are so full. It's still neater than it was before, though. -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])
==Game Icons==
A Pikmin 2 game icon has already been added, as you can see. However, there an icon for the first game has yet to be implemented, and before I blindly stumble into adding it in and having the edit immediately reverted, I would like to discuss. The in-game Treasure Hoard is Pikmin 2 only; however, we have also added in the enemies from the first Pikmin game. My question is this: do we leave it with just the Pikmin 2 icon, in tribute to the in-game Treasure Hoard, or do we also implement a Pikmin icon, representative of the creatures from the first Pikmin game that we have put in of our own accord? -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])
:''This article also doubles as a list of enemies in the Pikmin series. ''
:Somebody explain this to me. I don't even see all the enemies from Pikmin 1 listed here...--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}}
Strange... I automatically assumed that Pikmin 1 exclusive enemies would appear under "other", but I guess not. I'll add it when I have more time (with your approval, of course... Do you approve?). But anyway, many enemies in Pikmin 2 also appear in Pikmin 1, so my point still stands. It's slightly more wobbly than before, but it still stands. -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])
:Although this page is called the Piklopedia, which was taken right from the actual Piklopedia from ''Pikmin 2'', enemies from other games (e.g. ''Pikmin'') are included here as well. So even though it mainly relates to ''Pikmin 2'', this page also includes enemies from ''Pikmin'' (and in the future, ''Pikmin 3''). So yes, I'd add the icon for the first ''Pikmin'' game as well. {{User:PikFan23/sig}}
::To me, it feels a bit wrong that this page should include non-Piklopedia stuff, given its name.  Some of the stuff under ''Other'' could be put in ''See also'', and the Pikmin family bit should be removed.  It might be nice to have a separate page for ''Pikmin'' enemies - all it would provide is a table with some data, though, so maybe we want to think again about [[User talk:Greenpickle/2#helpful idea|this]]. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 06:02, 8 July 2013 (EDT)

== Locations ==
Do we ''really'' need a table by location? If somebody wants to know where an enemy is, they can go to its article. You could argue that this table is useful to see which enemies are on an area, but then you can just go to an area's article. Plus, sorting the table (which isn't even available on mobile, by the way) by area won't really work well, because of the way we list the areas. It's ugly, a bit arbitrary, and useless. I say we get rid of it. While we're at it, we don't really need a list of "other" creatures. This is a remnant from when the Piklopedia article used to explain enemies and serve as a general "list of enemies and creatures" article. The article should only be about the Piklopedia; the rest of the info is now organized in its own articles, like [[enemy]] and [[vegetation]]. I'll do this cleanup in some days if nobody objects. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:14, 1 October 2015 (EDT)
==Dying Enemies==
The Hermit Crawmad will die if a small one is petrified and has enough Pikpik Carrots thrown at it, due to a glitch. The Female Sheargrubs, Male Sheargrubs, and Shearwigs will all die if they fall in water. The Volatile Dweevil will... explode. Can anything else die? Also, does the Dwarf Bulbear really gitch? {{User:Mariotime315/sig}} 16:24, 6 November 2016 (EST)
:Weird. I tried doing the Hermit Crawmad thing and couldn't pull it off. How long do you have to do it for? I was chucking carrots for a good five minutes.
