Should we update it to the [http://www.dkwiki.com/File:DK-DKCR.jpg more recent] version? JC's old.

:I had a long debate with Blue Ninjakoopa on this one.  His argument is that we should use the art from the character's last major game to precede the character's most recent appearance in ''Smash''.  I would say that we should use the more recent version, however.

==Console of origin==
According to ''Donkey Kong Country'', Cranky Kong is the original DK in the arcade. Donkey Kong in Smash Bros is modeled after Donkey Kong in ''DKC'' seeing as he can ground pound, who is Cranky Kong's (original DK) son, meaning the console of origin for Donkey Kong (current Donkey Kong) is the SNES?

:I think we have to say arcade for origin, since it's the origin of the character, not the origin of the incarnation of the character. Like how only OoT, WW, and TP versions of the Zelda crew appear in Smash Bros. (as playable), yet their origins are stated as NES.

==Change content to what is in the [[True Donkey Kong]] page==
I made that page as a sample of what I think the Donkey Kong page should look like and am making this proposal for the other pages contents to be moved here and then the other page to be deleted.  See the edit summary of the other page for details.

:Smash pretty much conflates the "original" Donkey Kong (DKC Cranky) with the "modern" Donkey Kong (DKC onwards), and uses them interchangeably. We cover them on the same page just as our NIWA affiliates Mario Wiki and DK Wiki do. Smash does the same kind of thing with other characters, like equating NES/Wii Little Mac and the wireframe challenger from the arcade Punch-Out. There's no basis for removing content the way you're suggesting (and furthermore, please don't draft articles in the mainspace).

::How do you create non-mainspace user pages? You have a sandbox page and page listing all the source games. What do you do to get those? Besides helping me, this would also help this user in the future by giving him a place to work on stuff without it "clogging" the mainspace. <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[Image:{{NameToIcon|Ness}}Head{{#if:|{{{cl}}}}}{{#if:SSBB|{{#ifeq:SSBB|SSB4|SSB4-U|SSBB}}}}.png{{#if:16px|{{!}}16px}}|link={{#if:|{{{l}}}|Ness{{#if:SSBB|&#32;({{#switch:SSBB|SSB4-U|SSB4-3=SSB4|#default=SSBB}})}}}}]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 10:58, 19 August 2015 (EDT)
:::Make it with a slash. For example, a subpage for you would be named "User:John3637881/(insert page name here)". It's that simple.

==The DK Dab==
I'm not sure how Donkey Kong's dab in Mario Kart is relevant to this wiki. --[[User:Meester Tweester|Meester Tweester]] ([[User talk:Meester Tweester|talk]]) 23:49, September 25, 2019 (EDT)
