Forums: Social Media?
Hey again Nerdy! I am back from my trip, and I have a question. On the comments of this blog, you stated that the forums are for Wiki/Kirby-related discussions only; looking into it, the official policy states that forums cannot be used for off-topic conversations. I feel that our current forum may be bending that rule quite a bit. I don't want this to inevitably get to the point where you may have to step in and be the bad guy here, so I thought I'd ask: is this a bad thing? Should we take these conversations elsewhere somehow? I do truly enjoy our chats, but I just don't know what to do. Paul2    Wrong holiday.  20:54, November 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * This falls into the same realm as the RP, though it's somewhat more forgivable here IMO. Both are conversations that don't further wiki progress and serve as distractions. The reason I haven't taken any measures to stop it is that unlike the RP, which attracted people who had no intention of editing mainspace content, these social media discussions are primarily being used by regular editors who are still active. They're being social and blowing off steam in between actual editing sessions, which is exactly what the RP was missing. Heck, I spent 45 minutes writing about my personal thoughts on Kirby Fighters Deluxe earlier today--occasional distractions aren't inherently a bad thing.


 * Kirby Wiki isn't a strict factory where you're told to keep your head down and work silently all day long. At the same time, however, the rules and policies were set up as they are for a reason. Kirby Wiki does have finite resources, and casual conversation is best saved for a Facebook, Twitter, or some other social media outlet. You may have noticed that I only engage in casual conversation in personal blogs. These are essentially an extension of my user page, so I'm using my own resources rather than the important forums.


 * Sorry for the long answer. Ideally, the forums would be left alone until there's a topical, productive discussion. I haven't stopped it because the people supporting it do such valuable work. To use an analogy, I let the other construction workers chat during their coffee breaks.

 * Understood. Thanks for the thorough answer. We're making attempts to begin to limit the amount of forum usage by us through using platforms such as Discord or Skype currently. Hopefully this'll help. Paul2  [[File:K64 Mumbies sprite.gif]][[File:K64 Keke sprite.gif]] [[File:K64 Mopoo sprite.gif]]  Wrong holiday.  14:08, November 30, 2016 (UTC)

The Lor
OK, so by a sprite of the Lor, do you mean like an icon of it or what? MetaKirby23 (talk) 22:46, December 12, 2016 (UTC)


 * The sprite I'm talking about can be seen in the upper left-hand corner of this image. The Energy Sphere sprites beside it would also be nice if you can get them, but not if it's too much work.

 * Ooh, I see what you're talking about now. I'll rip the sprite, no maybes about it. MetaKirby23 (talk) 01:51, December 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * Awesome, thank you! That really made my day. =] NerdyBoutKirby  [[Image:Mass Return.png|link=http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Kirby_games#2011|HAL was on a roll in 2011.]]  A massive return to form.  01:59, December 13, 2016 (UTC)

10th Anniversary: Gioku
Hey there Nerdy! As you may know, we're planning to begin voting on the track order of the 10th Anniversary soundtrack tomorrow, Dec. 17th, meaning this is the last planned day Gioku will have a chance to give her suggestions. She hasn't edited since August 21, but I still have hopes we can reach out and give her one last chance today. Would you be able to pop her an email or contact her through some other means to see if we can get her two cents on this today? Thanks. Paul2    Wrong holiday.  14:00, December 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * I sent her an email, but I doubt she'll get to it in time. If you have a Twitter account, you could try to message her using Kirby Wiki's Twitter. (I dunno how that would work, though, since I've never sent messages on that site.)

25th Anniversary Concert
Hi NBK, I'm not sure if fellow wiki members are aware, Kirby is getting a 25th Anniversary concert in Shibuya.

Since Gioku changed the announcements system I'm not sure where to put this >.<

 * Thanks for the information! I'll figure out a place for it. Perhaps a description of the news could go here. NerdyBoutKirby  [[Image:Mass Return.png|link=http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Kirby_games#2011|HAL was on a roll in 2011.]]  A massive return to form.  22:07, December 16, 2016 (UTC)
