The Fishy News: Issue 5
Today, April 2nd of 2021, marks the ten year anniversary of my having joined the Pikmin Fanon on this day in 2011, back from when I was only ten years old. I'm twenty years old now, and I am very grateful a fan site such as this one exists and am even more grateful that Pikmin, as well as its community, exists. I've met so many wonderful and creative people over the years, and want to thank you all for the good times and the amazing ideas. This site was and still is a big part of my life, and it means so much to me. I know the Pikmin Fanon currently may not be the most visually appealing, what with the broken article and file links, but I hope it's all sorted out in the near future so that new members can enjoy a clean, organized, consistently-structured Pikmin Fanon, maybe even after I'm no longer part of this world many long years from now. Again, I thank you all for the good times, whether you're an active user here or just a user browsing the wiki anonymously, and I wish you all the best, especially in these grueling times. And if you're an anonymous individual perusing the Pikmin Fanon, I wish you the best also and I hope you like what you see on this stellar website. Also, I'm taking a small break from the Pikmin Fanon to focus on other things in my life, and I'll be back to editing in a few days. Happy editing, and take care. Thank you for taking the time to read this message celebrating something so special in my life.

Happy Late Birthday, and to many more!

Question about Templates: how do I make one?
I see A LOT of different projects, including a number of yours, who have their own sort of template that says something like "This Article Contains information about a non-canon game, "insert name here", made by "insert name here"." Not sure if you're the one i should be asking this, but I'm just gonna anyway since you seem to have a couple yourself. How do I make one? Or at least how do i get one? I wanna one for Pikmin Eco and I don't know how to do it. Thanks you ^^. - User:Sapphire7

Game Flaw
I see you added something in the description of the Frigid Bulblax that said yellow Pikmin must be used to attack the beast’s eyes but sadly that’s before you discover the yellow Pikmin and besides there’s no need for it’s eyes to be attacked so I’m just gonna fix that User:Salem

Profile Professional
Hey I need to know to get a profile how do I do it. User:Salem

Hi there
I just want to say you are free to use any creature from Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers in Pikmin: Wide World. CarrotStilts1 (talk) 07:23, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm on the floor wasting away
BRUH its been forever and I still need u to fix the article Jammy Spectralid pls I’m begging u --Salem

Family creating/editing
So, I know you know I've been editing and adding creature family pages lately, but I want to know if I'm allowed to create families for the fan-made creatures here. You know, like the Quavershell's Adhesquirt family for example. Or is that something I'm not allowed to do? Just thought to check in ^^ ~ Sapphire7

hello
hello how do you put things into categories?Captenluigi (talk)captenluigi

Continuation of Espyo's User talk
Hello. Based on the page Bulbmin, are you specifically referring to the Technical information section? From what I can see and manage, the collapse table is working just fine. Additionally, the two infoboxes do not seem to be clashing in any capacity. Could I ask what skin you are using, as well as method of browsing (mobile, computer etc)? Thinking this may be an issue with specific visuals. Trig - 04:04, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Did what you asked
Ok I did what u asked me to do by using the show preview when making the article for the Jellyborb ~ Salem

Help...
Cheepy Cheepy Ive got a huge problem Espyo is here and he is the one responsible for blocking me from the Pikipedia!!! sorry we’ve just me and Espyo a sour history with each other so pls fix my problem I’m begging u Salem


 * I'm not sure you'll like my response, but I think the punishment Espyo gave you was justified. Pikipedia is strictly for information regarding official content in official Pikmin games, where fanon content isn't looked upon kindly and speculation is kept to an absolute minimum. I looked to see what you were punished for, and it was because you kept adding Pikmin 4 content to the enemy article, three times to be precise, even after being told to stop the first time. Yes, I understand Pikmin 4 was announced, but we know nothing about it beyond the fact that it is apparently in the making. Again, speculation is kept to an absolute minimum on Pikipedia. We don't even know what will be in Pikmin 4; maybe Nintendo will throw us a huge curveball and choose not to include Red Bulborbs in it! I assume Espyo set your punishment to last three months since it was a minor issue, and those three months are almost up since this incident happened a little over two months ago. And even if I did have a problem with the punishment you were given, I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. Espyo was only doing his job as an admin, and it's nothing personal. I've known Espyo for a little while, maybe not personally, but by what I've seen of him, he's a level-headed individual that thinks clearly. He doesn't hold grudges, so you have no need to worry about him not liking you. As for your block from Pikipedia, it's best just to wait a little while longer and see what happens. I wouldn't go pestering him about how much longer your punishment will last, though.

Hello!
Dear Cheepy-Cheepy, I see you have edited my page for the Foundation (Formerly known as Tower) Dweevil. I don't actually mind- it's written far better than I could ever hope to do. I did actually notice some other pages of mine have also been re-named and re-written. was that also you? Were you the one to rename the Ice Segmaflutter to the Hailstorm Dandelfly, or the Skeeter Tsunami to the Icewater Skeeterskate? If so, could you by any chance think up a better name for the Refleci-Shock Crystasinge? or maybe Redraw the Omega Poofspore? Those are probably two of my worst done pages... Thanks so much for the help! Cp64

Hello Hello, Montgomery Montgomery
Thanks for the help with the Crystasinge, I was wondering two things: how do you remove the (unofficial) from an enemy's family name, because the skeeterskate's official name as stated in the Pikmin 3 Deluxe Piklopedia is Spitterspatter, but I can't seem to get it to say it IS official. PS: It's the Aerodentia family now, not Phosbat. ~ Cp64

Hola
Thanks! The title for the previous was a reference to A Series Of Unfortunate Events episode 5: The Reptile Room, Part 1. Also, I meant to also say earlier, is there some way to contact everyone on the wiki at once? due to the recent addition of the Piklopedia in DX, multiple pre-existing creatures from 3 were given new scientific names and their family names were revealed. I wanted to tell everyone about this and to help correct names. ~ Cp64

Breadbug invasion
Hey I’ve got an idea for new breadbug on Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs the idea of the breadbug is the Raisin Breadbug

Hey Look at this
Hey what do u think of this picture ~ Salem

8 minute race
Ok I’ve created the page on the Zombmin And it needs fixing so I’ll be expecting it in 8 minutes ok good luck ~ Salem

idea machine
Hey I’ve got an idea how about you fix one page get 2 weeks off repeat the process ~ Salem

Notable error
Per this image, your Cheepy Cheepy template for talk pages has broken. Trig - 02:09, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Try the following:


 * This should give you something similar--a random rotating quote each the box appears. I use a similar mechanism for Wikirby at the bottom of my userpage. Trig - 21:17, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Aloha
I don't know what to call the cave where you find the Spitball Dweevil and Calcifus Dweevil, as well as the Foundation Dweevil and their Elder Variant. I was thinking maybe the Dweevil Den, the Nightmare Den (Although it will require some disambiguation), the Worryful Web, or the Spider Shaft.

Cool name! Won't happen again, as you can see here:

Guild
I asked prior to making my sig, and here it is:

It's ok, my last attempt at making a Pikmin Fanon game was pretty bad anyways. I may be pretty stupid, but at least I know when I'm being stupid. I think I'll try something else. I moved most of the pages that did exist to the deletion area. Don't mess with any of my cool new Dweevils though, I like them and worked hard on them. I might even be able to make images for them soon, if my sister stopped playing Roblox on the only computer that has an art application for once. P.S: almost forgot my sig.

Halu
Sorry bout the templates, I made a few mistakes when making it, such as not realizing the word "Template" was going to be in the title, and forgetting to link my game. The templates that were on the pages that I had put them on weren't updating when I changed it.

Sorry...
It won't happen again. I'll go back and undo them.
 * No need. It has already been dealt with. Trig - 19:55, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Color me surprised
Or blue, apparently. I looked up what color best represented surprise, specifically to make this pun, and apparently it's blue. Anyways, thanks!

A possible notion
Would you be interested in possibly the creation of a Clean-Up like I have set up on various sites as depicted on my user page, most notably Pikipedia? I would not mind making one but would not want to infringe upon stuff like PikminFanon:To-do list‎. Trig - 03:52, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Updated several things. Otherwise, I will work on creating a separate page for some of the specifics. Trig - 16:11, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Grocery List
I was checking the Recent Changes and saw that you had edited a page I had never heard of before, the To Do List. Maybe we should move it to the Main Page? I don't think the main page has been updated in a while... Maybe also some kind of joke section that gets updated weekly, like: "What do you call a cross between a Grub-Dog and a citrus lump? An Orange Bulborb!"

Ok. I was thinking that the joke section would kinda seem a bit inviting.

just eyeball it
fair, but both of the ocular terrors have the name of _____ Orodye. Furthermore, the Birther Orodye was in the Ocular Terror family. Also, what happened to the other two? It says there are four Ocular Terrors, but I can only find two.

60$ plus Taxa
I admit that I messed up on the Pikmin Forever fossil's scientific names because I didn't know they were supposed to be the creature's ancestors, but everything else was spot on! I spent at least an hour going through P3DX's Piklopedia to make sure everything was correct, and corrected a spelling error.

K, sorry. I didn't know, and I generally prefer continuity.

Specifics
How do I specify which area of a page a link is going to, such as my particular version of Green Pikmin in Green Pikmin (miscellaneous)? Thanks.

Oh, and speaking of which, can I make a new page for Lubricant to replace Oil? It's pretty outdated, and there are plenty of other things that are slippery besides oil.

Actually, I'm working on that right now. I'm currently trying to find assorted sources for it, such as enemies.

While we're talking of hazards, there are two pages for environmental hazards.

Actually, the hazards Metal Poisoning, Polluted Water, Dark Nebula, and Rain need work too.

Fusion Earrings
Technically, shouldn't the assorted varieties of Bulbmin be in both the Pikmin and Grub-dog families? Also, shouldn't that apply to other creatures that have fused into one or share an enemy page due to teaming up permanently and never being seen without the other that are in different families?

Currently as far as I can tell, there are no such examples. However, it isn't unthinkable that multiple sapient creatures could pack-bond and work together, never being seen apart. Perhaps a new user will create just such a pair or more of creatures. We certainly have the capabilities as humans to do so.

Or maybe some form of Sporovid that produces spores that essentially causes | Day to Break (but without the sun becoming death) and has creatures (Possibly including itself) fusing with each other left and right.

WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL! Look at what we have here! LOOK AT THE Stong Aristocrab & Golden Bloyster! *MANIACAL LAUGHING IN ALL CAPS*

Oneion for All
Hey Cheepy, It's me again. I have a few suggestions. I honestly prefered the old master rank icons, because these new oes just look like someone just put them in MS paint and used paint bucket with purple. Maybe some form of spicy spray appearance would be better. Not only that, but All implies that you can get a rank before getting the one previous, and that you simply need to obtain all the ranks and not do anything special. Perhaps Onion rank would make more sense. Lastly, What about a new rank entirely: Nectar Rank. You have not only improved your own writing but have helped others around you! If there's anyone who'd apply for Nectar, it'd be you.

Re:Userboxes
Happy to help! Speaking of cleaning up, I think I edited a few pages, Chameleon Bulblax being one of them, put them in categories, and other stuff like that, but I can't quite remember which. Did they get removed from the list?

That's the one. Thanks!

Jeopardy!
Hey, I realized that there was no category for enemies that help out other enemies, like the Powerasite family and the Foundation Dweevil. Can I make one? Also, there's no category for enemies that copy other enemies, like the Plasm Wraith, most mimic enemies, the Spitball Dweevil, and the Shifty Elementick. Can I make one for that, too?

Kay.

But there IS a need for the Enemy-harming enemies category! That IS quite important, and that knowledge can have quite the impact on somebody's playthrough! For example: the Volatile Dweevil can knock the Foundation Dweevil off balance, and as such, with good timing, you could finish a speedrun much quicker! That could mean the difference between a world record and a new personal best!

Sure, but unlike the Pikmin, who can have wildly different abilities that aren't necessarily dependent on their color, each version of an enemy doesn't have a new page, because the differences are usually very minor, like spawn location, or health. If ANY version of the enemy can harm another, the enemy in general should be labelled as such. If an enemy already has a certain attribute but not certain others, you can be certain that somebody will eventually create a version with all of it's other attributes.

Cool. Also, I have a wildly different idea for Magenta Pikmin. Is it okay for me to make it a Misc article?

Almost forgot, if you're vorking on cleaning up the Pikmin family category, you should start by either lumping all the Ice/Cyan/Light Blue/Snow/Whatever Pikmin into one page, or moving the articles from the Pikmin Family category into the Pikmin family category. Somehow somebody made a whole new category without anybody correcting them until it was really big.

Re: Inspiration
Sorry, I know. I don't actually know how to do much more complex "fancy brackets" coding than a sig, so I actually do just copy and paste other stuff and then change it so it looks how I want it. I'm still working on both the Achievements and Nav, and all that coding takes a really long time and several corrections whether copy-pasted or not. I'll try to have it done soon, and by then it should be much different.

Thanks man! I intend to continue with my work on that front!

Plants
I think i got all of them done now

You, THE one and only Cheepy-Cheepy, made questionable and low-quality articles? NONSENSE!

Ok those do sound kinda dumb buuut you could probably find an interesting use for either.

Dandelions in Disguise
Hey Cheepy, I had an idea. Basically, in each area of Pikmin: Dual Worlds, there, whenever a new Rock Pikmin is sprouted from an Onion, there is a 1/10 chance that it will be a rare variation of a Rock Pikmin that has a different texture based on the surrounding environment. For example, in Latitude Lavaflow, you would maybe get a magma textured one, or in Quinacridone Quarry you'd get a lavenderish gemstone textured one. No functional differences, just texture changes, but it could be cool for a new player to the series who thinks that "Oh, this game can't be cool, my mom bought it for me," only to realize "Hey, this is kinda fun! Hold on, that Rock Pikmin is different! That's so cool!" kinda like those old video game easter eggs you'd find by chance. One- actually, two problems, but we'll get to that later, should I do interesting rocks from the area in general, or gems/ semiprecious stones? Now for the second one, should I do a rare Rock variant for the Dark version of Infinite Ivory, known as Ebony Empire, which is the final area of the game, and have there just be two 20 Pellets in Ivory so that you can use one in Ivory and one, after making it through the absolutely grueling maze, in Ebony, or should I throw out that second 20 pellet entirely and just put a 50 pellet there?

Ok, thanks!

Criss-cross
I think somebody messed with the ways links are set up, because now all my links with different text (for example, the area links from above) need to have the page it's linking to on the left side, instead of the right.

Huh, weird. Now I think it, I should check my other links to see if they work, because I could've sworn on my life that they worked the other way before.

DMs
Hello Creepycheep this is Glubbfubb, is this the usual spot where people DM you because I always want to do things right

Yes, people usually DM others at the bottom of the page unless they're continuing a discussion from a previous DM, in which case they DM them at the bottom of that section. Also, if you don't have a sig already, you need to sign your messages with 4 tildes (these things: ~). They're probably next to your 1 key. I can make a sig for you if ya want.

deletion
is it alright if i can clear out the categories that need to be deleted?

Fleshing Out Hazards
I'm making a orginal hazard called Mold, it's a combination of Poison and Puffstool spores, I even made a Moldstool boss that uses it, does it looks fleshed out enough to you, I'm looking for feedback.

goodbye
well i am very sorry i couldn't fully clear out the fanon category but i have to return my laptop some time this week

back
Well hello guys i am back for now

It has been done
There you go the fanon category is down to one thing left but that is a protected page

Onion O's
Shouldn't the old Story Serials be part of the fanfictions category too?

Don't forget about the garlic marshmallows!

Sup
It's been a while, jsut wanted to let you know I'm back and working on Pikmin E again. Also turns out I've been at bud rank for, like, a long time without knowing it ._. I'm CreatorofPikminE, and I own Pikmin E! CreatorofPikminE (talk)

The Fishy News: Issue 6
Ahoy mateys, just wanted to let you all know, a few days in, that I'm currently taking a little break from editing on the Pikmin Fanon. I know I was active today, but that was because I wanted to take care of things that needed attention. I suppose that if it wasn't obvious already, I do take periodic breaks from this wiki, although that doesn't mean I don't keep an eye on this place. So if I disappear, that's probably what's happening. But fret not, I'm never gone for long. When I come back to editing in a few days, I'll be clearing up several articles I need to look at, including two company articles, location articles pertaining to Pikmin: The Return of the Puffmin, unused content articles, starting with the Stamping Long Legs' and then some other unused content articles, a collection of other location articles, the hazards pages I need to finish up at some point, and lastly, other miscellaneous articles I come across that need cleaned up. I'll even get back to updating and detailing Pikmin: Wide World content because, man, I'm passionate about working on it, even if I do get burnt out on it. Best wishes, and take care!

Pikmin: Wide World update #1
This isn't my first update about things to come with Pikmin: Wide World, but this is the first one I recorded officially. I just wanted to say that, when I'm done with the hazard articles, I'm going to be writing lots and lots about the things in the game on the Pikmin Fanon! I have a wide selection of enemies that have notes written for them and are ready to have their articles officially have a section for their appearance in my proudest Pikmin-related project. I like to do things this way, through notes, so I can prepare my notes for everything in my game before I get to writing the articles or sections themselves so I can have all the information I need prepared, organized, and ready to go, which makes writing easier and faster. Get excited, because there will soon be much to read over! I will also be fixing other little minor things with Pikmin: Wide World because I want the game to be absolutely perfect. EDIT: I neglected to mention pictures! Those will be done in due time. I'm just so busy with other stuff in real life and on the Pikmin Fanon that I don't much have the time to do them right now, as much as I'd love to, but do know the last pictures I were working on were of the Fiery Bulblax, Icy Bulblax, and Chemical Bulblax, which were all given brilliant designs in my humble opinion.

Lander, Sea Dragon, and Why?
Hey, I just noticed that your Dolphin Lander Doesn't have a page yet. I know you're kinda busy with the whole "Project: Cleanup" thing, but once I'm done with dinner I can take over for you if you so choose and you tell me what categories you intend to fix up! It'd certainly be more cleanly (or at least more organised) if you compiled all it's dialogue! Thanks!

Where am I…
Hey Cheepy Yo might have been wondering where I was the reason why because got attached to my Nintendo switch for a while but now I’m back in business ~ Salem

Return of The King
Wraith is back! He's returned! He's even made multiple edits!


 * Haha, I don't think of myself as a king. 80% of the time... ;) But yeah, I'm back! Glad to see that you make regular edits. I hope you have been doing well! Feel free to shoot me a message to talk anytime. I think I need to figure out how to receive e-mail notifications for my talk page. You wouldn't happen to know if I can do that somehow, do you? Anyways I am glad to be back. I look forward to talking with you in the future. 18:13, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

Hey, it's not my fault! That's all Salem!

I've heard about the cleanup effort and I am willing to help out however I can. Just let me know what I can do. I might be a little bit rusty with the whole wiki thing, but I'll do my best. Let me know, 20:48, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

pets
what pikmin enemy would you like to have as a pet?

About the cleanup project
Wow, there seems to be a nearly endless amount of things to be done. It's kinda overwhelming. I'll do my best, but for the time being I'm not feeling so well. I should be back in action soon though. 02:31, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

Hey Cheepy, I think you should Archive this one. You're at 50 Sections now.

Do enemies need to be moved to pages with (Game Name Here) at the end? I created an enemy for my game and wanted to be sure. Also, there are so many things to be done with project cleanup, that I'd rather you tell me which specific thing requires immediate attention. I tend to need to focus on small chunks, having ADHD and all. Thanks. 12:32, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

I'm sorry I haven't started helping with Project: Cleanup. I am very timid about this, and am afraid I will mess something up. You've been maintaining this site for the past half a decade and I can't help but think I am way in over my head. I've looked back at my past actions and feel I had such an ego before, I flaunted my status. I've been trying to be more humble, and a part of that humility is admitting when I have no idea how to help... :/ 21:21, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

Re: Bomb rock Pikmin
Fair enough. It annoys me, as I have this deep seated belief that Bomb-Rock is the correct way, but canon trumps my inclinations. 02:29, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Hey, Cheepy, could you please leave a Redirect after you move an image? Whenever you don't, the image link on it's page doesn't work. Thanks!

Sorry. I didn't know.

It's ok, everybody has bad days every once in a while.

Thanks
I appreciate you cleaning up my images and templates. I guess I don't always get it right on my own, so the help is cherished. I'll try in the future to get it right in the first place. 22:08, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

New Logo
Hey Cheep! I am trying to make a new logo for our site, so I'd love some feedback on Talk:Main Page. In reality I want to give the whole skin and main page a fresh coat of paint. Let me know on the talk page if you have any suggestions! 16:56, 9 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Also, do you have a discord? It's a lot quicker to talk over there, so I was wondering if you have one. I still will use talk pages for major things but discord is good for minor chatting. Let me know! 19:52, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Hey Cheepy, can you add me too? Thanks!

Fine, lmao. My tag is xXxKingBoo69xXx#4844.

You have been instrumental in keeping this wiki alive. You have now been granted the merit of Bureaucrat. Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication. 18:36, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

suggestion
could there be a mosquito like enemy in pikmin wide world?

I'm Back
Hey I'm planning on coming back, is this the correct site and how you been doing

Yeah its changed a lot, good to hear from you again, I'm going to try being more active, anything I can help with.

Ok wow that is a lot, I will try to get started on it. For the files page, do you need drawings done of enemies and stuff?

Tournament of Drawing Implements
Honestly this drawing contest seems really fun! I have to agree with you though, I think that other people should have their works redrawn too. Maybe we could create a list of everyone who is ok with their works being drawn, and a list of people who want to participate? If we do that, we can assign everyone who is ok with their stuff being redrawn a number and use an RNG to decide who's work is being redrawn, and then they can choose which thing of theirs is drawn? It seems like a good enough system to me. Anyways, I like Salem's idea. If we are doing this though, and this is an official thing, I think it should be on the main page, and that there should be some kind of thing you get for being voted the best submission. I hope this whole idea is worked out and implemented soon!

Pikmin V Pikmin merging
Why is it that you want to dissolve Pikmin V/Pikmin types into the Pikmins' individual pages? I like it as a way to see and compare all of the types in the game together. -- En  Passant  07:38, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * What makes it better? Is there a problem with having the info on both Pikmin V's Pikmin page and the species' pages (which is already the case for Orange and Clawed Pikmin)? -- En  Passant  04:50, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Your thoughts don't answer my question, though, which is why the information can't exist in both places as it does now (the Pikmin's article and the Pikmin V subpage). I don't want to add all of that onto the main Pikmin V page to avoid bloating and be consistent with the Enemy/Treasure sections below it. -- En  Passant  04:18, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Pikmin Fanon has kind of stopped notifying me about new talk page messages, so I didn't know I even had a reply from you, and I wasn't active on the wiki since until someone (possibly you) asked me to start making pages just yesterday. Anyway, that reasoning makes a lot more sense, but I'm still hesitant about it. Paradoxically, the written portions I have on my Pikmin are short enough that they could fit on the page without issue - it's the infoboxes I'm concerned about for bloat. It feels weird to have "summarized" versions on the main page when the small pieces of technical information in the infobox are the only thing that are exclusive to the Pikmin's own article. I know that's what you do for Wide World, but, and it does look nice, I just don't know if it's necessarily better or should be standard. -- En  Passant  06:48, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Other users doing it for their games doesn't make it the best way to format, just the one with the least work. The many wiki cleanup attempts exist because the way a lot of people formatted things wasn't very good...
 * Regarding canon vs. fanon, since this is a fanon wiki, it's implied that everything here is fanon unless stated otherwise, right? We have headers at the top of the pages that state when they're canon content, with links to Pikipedia. The "In fanon games" header is pretty redundant and messes up the table of contents, so that's why I've been changing them. My personal opinion is that we don't need to have the canon game notes for enemies at all since we don't cover the canon games on this wiki, but since it's not actively harmful, I sectioned them off with the label instead of deleting them.
 * The same applies to the "In other games" header, as if only one game can claim ownership of an idea. I really don't like how you re-arranged the Pellet Poser page to make it seem like the idea was Scruffy's first and I just borrowed it, when, as I already noted on the page when it was made, we came up with it completely independently. There's nothing categorically distinguishing this page from the many, many repeated colors of Pikmin or elemental hazard enemy reskins, so do you plan on making the first sections of those the "default" ones, giving those creators credit for the idea when it's definitely not that original, and placing every one other in an "other games" grouping? I even undid that on my own Clawed Pikmin page. I've never seen a wiki ever claim an enemy, item, etc. as "belonging" to their original game.-- En  Passant  07:38, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * That's sort of my point about the section thing. What time the information was added to the wiki has no bearing on where or when the idea actually originated, and it's not fair that whoever gets around to writing it on the wiki first gets their game's version specially featured as the source of it, above the table of contents and with their game banner plainly visible at the top, when it isn't especially likely that it's true. In addition to the issue you mentioned about past edits (which is absolutely in the realm of possibility for our userbase, even if you haven't found hard evidence), this formatting would create another one for future ones: It would highly incentivize the wiki version of "first" comments, where someone makes articles for their stuff without adding anything of value to them just so they get the coveted spots at the top of the page.
 * I think the formatting for both canon and fanon content could be done the same way, having an overview of what the thing is generally like at the top before going into the sections for each of the fanon games. In cases where something performs radically differently between games, it might be appropriate to split the article, like what was done with the Orange and Green and Black Pikmin articles. I think the only reason notes sections stuff up articles is when it gets to the X.Y.Z.W level of hierarchy, of which removing the "In fanon/other games" sentence chops off a whole layer. While it is technically more convenient to have more canon info accessible at the top of the page for canon content... the Pikipedia article is only one click away, and the more info we have here, the more we have to update with new releases and such, which is something we are notoriously bad at. -- En  Passant  20:07, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Why do you think those sections are necessary? I'll concede that an "appearances by game" header is standard for recurring content on wikis for other franchises, but since very few fangames are officially released and most get updated substantially over time, Pikmin Fanon content doesn't really recur in that fashion (and that's why I think attempting chronological organization is a bad idea). Each game's section within an article is basically its own article, operated by the game's owner and capable of having its own subsections if need be (like Pikimon's movepools), and they're all simply placed on the same page since most are very similar and small so it prevents page bloat from repeated info. I think, when coupled the idea of keeping specifics of canon enemies on Pikipedia, that the beginning section of articles should be more of an abstract, a landing describing generalities that the different games' versions share, rather than the actual start of content. -- En  Passant  06:00, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Erm, I meant the "In fanon games"/"User versions" headers. I don't have any problem with the "Appearances by game" gallery. I'm not seeing where you explained the necessity of these, other than that users sometimes make content not associated with a game. I feel like that's arguably a case against the headers, in situations where both game- and user- versions exist for the same idea: either you'll need two separate sections, which seems pretty unnecessary when the content in the article itself isn't any different, or neither header will be entirely accurate to the content.
 * I also don't understand what you mean by the family categorizing. If you mean enemy genealogy, I don't see the problem with listing an enemy under any families it has been classified under in various games, as long as each family's page mentions that it is only classified there in whichever specific games. -- En  Passant  23:38, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I'll use Pink Wollywog as an example of why I want these changes, then. Even disregarding the first comment thing, the entry at the top (from Redemption) talks about how the Pink Wollywog is a unique species of Wollywog that doesn't attack but instead spawns other, more dangerous Wollywogs. I was left wondering if PikHacker really included that in the mod, and then I scroll down and see that 251's Pink Wollywog is nothing like that. The only common element between the two versions is that they're pink. Either one being at the top is very misleading for the other, and therefore neither should be at the top.
 * This may sound obvious, but I wrote Pellet Poser the way I think articles should be formatted, before it got changed. It described what the Pellet Posers were (Creeping Chrysanthemum meets Pellet Posy), then had the section for Pikmin V and Pikmin Forever for all game-specific behavior. There was no need for an "In fanon games" header because it's not a canon enemy. I'll also note that the two versions are in separate families, and it really doesn't mean much because they're just the two different ideas we came up with for taxonomy. Both families will only show up with the other enemies in that family in their respective games (just CC for V, but PF doesn't have CC and it does have a few others, so I think it's rather important to have them grouped outside of the Piklopedia page). I seriously don't understand what's confusing about it... whether an enemy behaves differently in two different games is a separate issue from this. I think it's only worth disambiguating/article splitting if the page is getting cluttered with entries; I don't think Pink Wollywog needs to be split. -- En  Passant  02:55, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Have You Seen This Man
Hey where have you been I haven’t seen you in a while ~Salem

Cheepy, this is urgent
The alt's been compromised. The only way I'm talking through this is because I selected "Keep me logged in" on the computer I registered my alt on. I need you to find some way to terminate this account.

UPDATE: My cousin is the one who compromised the account. He's planning to use it to grief Pikmin: Wide World and Pikmin E.

Hey.
So, I discovered there's a LOT of broken/empty links on Pikmin Wide World's page. I'm gonna work on fixing those, so if you see edits to the page, I'm not doing anything too important. I'm CreatorofPikminE, and I own Pikmin E! CreatorofPikminE (talk)

Hi
Hello it's been a while

I'm Back
I'm back in this community, joining the Pikmin Discord really helped renew my interest with the franchise, and I came to say that I may have some new stuff up my sleeve

It’s been a while
It’s been a while since I posted something on the pikmin fanon but now I’m back in business ~ Salem

Pain Brush
Why is the Spitball Dweevil a disguising enemy now?

Mm. Yeah, that's fair.

We Wish You a Merry Pikmas and a Happy
Cheepy, why didn't you just make the Pikmin 2: New Year enemies sections of pre-existing ones? They all seem to have the same behavior. By the time you're done that game alone will have probably increased the enemy pages count by a thirty-second! Also now I think it does the Main Page's article count have some sort of template that counts the content pages? It doesn't seem to have changed since the last time I've been on here.

Ok so minor problem
I think you broke the Infobox: Enemy template and now things are no longer in their assigned families. Most obviously, the Breadbug and Grub-dog families have well below a third of their total members. I'd guess about half or even more of our total enemy count has been removed from their families. Quite a few, mostly those later in the alphabet, are empty. Whatever you did, you should probably undo.

Hey uh, is the whole "Families aren't determined by the infobox" thing permanent? Would it be possible to make a "Custom Family" part of an infobox that would show your decided family, but not cause the whole categorizing bit?

update
So is this new layout of the wiki better with this update or worse then the older layout?

Yo...
Why did you delete the page: Template:Pk  ? All I said was this is the preferred abbreviation for Pikipedia...

EFD Subcategory
What do you mean by "Find a suitable enemy subcategory for this enemy to go in." in the To-Do Template on the E.F. Dweevil's page? It's already correctly categorized, as far as I can tell. (Also I like the new mascot for the Welcome template.)

New redirect?
Should I redirect the page, Help:Contents  to Category:Help? 20:35, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

I need some help
I haven't been here for quite some time due to other things, and I need some ideas. What should I do? (Also maybe making a custom character or something)

What is the new cave layout
I was about to make a new cave, but then I saw that the layouts have changed. Where can I read about these altered page layouts? CarrotStilts1 (talk) 23:51, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Subject:
Hey, did you know that the recent changes page got updated? 01:16, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Userboxes
You know, I created many unique ideas no one else has ever done, and it's probably a record. Maybe I could receive some userboxes on creating lots of new stuff? I am a creative person, you know.

Banner Request
I asked Username where to find someone who can make a banner for Pikmin: Spark and they said you are the main one who makes banners, could you make a unqiue banner for my fanwork Pikmin: Spark tell me if your interested, thanks

Hello!
It's been a while since we talked. I'm an administrator on another wiki hosted by Grifkuba. It would be very much appreciated if you gave me admin tips. 04:38, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Probably about the deletion. 15:00, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Question #?
Am I banned on the Discord server? I'm literally serious, man. Why is my account renamed? 03:20, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh... that phishing scam I accidentally clicked on and fell for it, yep. And I have control of my account, again. Lemme re-enter pls. 04:17, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I am 100% certain I can even explained what happened. I'm sorry for everything that happened, you don't have to let me back in if you want.

A Long Long Long Reeeeaaaaaallllly long break
Ok im gonna be leaving the pikmin fanon for a while but I’ll back soon not too soon but soon ~ Salem

Need some icons for enemies
Why not make ones for say, the Strumbug, Watery Bubblimp or Bright Jellovid? (I already wrote that in the Bright Jellovid's article if you didn't notice)

How do I edit my game template?
I just noticed you gave me one, so how do I change the color or add decorations? also it's my birthday, yes it's april 1st

sorry
sorry for being kinda late to say this but it's cool seeing that this wiki got past 4.000 pages

Request
I'm making a new enemy infobox for Pikmin: Neo seeing that the current creature template is not really that for my idea, problem is I don't know how to make an Infobox, I wanted to add habitat which describes which biome the creature lives in and rarity to describe how hard to find this creature is. I also wanted to make the infobox green to stand out, could you help me on that. The link to the template is here Template:Infobox Pikmin Neo.

Navbox
Hey how do you create a navbox, I want one for my game, where do I make that for Pikmin: Neo.

Nintendo Land Seeds
Just a reminder I made articles for the Nintendo Land seeds. Since they were canon information I didn't know how to word them so I would like to ask if you could fill in the placeholder text if you can. I also made a fan made family for them called the Power Pod if your interested in having their own distinct family.

Re:Hello!
Two things: How can I detect copyright violations on a file? And what the heck does Housekeeping mean? (Also, sorry for late reply.) 02:41, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I should've been more specific. I meant what does housekeeping mean on a wiki? 16:25, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Idea
Pellet cannon

Small question
I have tried uploading svg files, but each time it prevents me from doing so and yet says I can upload them for some reason. What is the cause of this error?

Weird glitch
So I was playing Fortress of Festivity in Pikmin 3 Deluxe and for some reason my Purple Pikmin carrying an apple in a corner hadn't been getting it out for some reason. Around the 27 minute mark of After Hours, I had noticed when I put 9 Winged Pikmin and a White Pikmin, they were actually lifting it INTO the corner instead of carrying it out, even after I managed to make Brittany nudge it out of the corner. I had to quit, hopefully it won't happen again.

Yes
i never actually dunked myself in paint and screamed

i confusion
I thought that Bonnie image on your userpage was a protogen or something

The Family Categories
What happened to the family categories and why are they so blank now? Should we refill them? CarrotStilts1 (talk) 01:47, 28 May 2022 (UTC)

Whoops!
It seems as is you added the "Pikmin-altering enemies" category to the Scatterstool page, the spores are not meant to infect Pikmin like its relatives do, though it might be a good idea to let them destroy the spores. And I'll fix a typo.

yeah
I fell down a few days ago while walking at school and hit my elbow and knee. I was a lot more sensitive than my classmates, I was in a lot of pain and I came walking to my teacher crying and we eventually put an ice pack on it. Later that day I checked both in the bathroom, my knee was normal but I noticed my elbow had a huge cut on it. I immediately told the teachers and we put bandages on it a few times. It has healed a bit already, and school ended today, also I got to buy new markers so it'll be easier to draw good images and atleast I'm happier now. I'm going to our vacation home with my grandparents in a few days, so don't expect me to be online for some time. (crap how long did i make this)

Also I don't want my SVGs to be turned into PNGs please

hello, lol
it's my birthday today!

happy birthday

The Knight used: Unusual Terrain
Two things: would it be interesting for the SK to be able to change the shape of the arena somehow, and should there be a category for enemies that can do so? Maybe the SK can pull down some of the stones in the walls or something?
