: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. | :If they deleted the first one, you can bet they'll delete any others you make.

::Crystal, go away. Breadbug, I suggested on another page somewhere that the entire Piklopedia article be rewritten to better match the in-game Piklopedia, since the enemies here are not in the same order as those in the in-game one, and we have a number of things which aren't even there (Pikmin, Spiderwort...). So yes, I (still) think it should be redone with the correct order and numbers. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} | ::Crystal, go away.

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.

: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?

::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}} | ::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.

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.------ | On most pages of this wiki, PIKMIN, the game, is called Pikmin 1.

: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.

::::I don't think I was quite clear enough. I meant the little images in the Pikipedia that show pictures of the wildlife. Like if you go into the Piklopedia and you haven't discovered an enemy yet, a number will be there. Once you discover the enemy, the number is replaced by a picture.

::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.

:::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/ | :::I agree with Espyo.
