I have noticed that across pages, the plural of Kirby is spelt as both Kirbys and Kirbies. While both are technically valid, I feel like we should be consistent with which was we spell it. I don't know if it would be worth having a vote or if it is not that big a problem, I just think we should be consistent with which terminologies we use. | I have noticed that across pages, the plural of Kirby is spelt as both Kirbys and Kirbies.

It should be noted that generally, the y to ie plural rule doesn't apply to names, but in the case of species names, (which one could argue applies to Kirby), it is sometimes the case.

:This is probably irrelevant, but when talking about Pokémon, if there's a plural of something, it would always be the same as if it was singular. "Wow, there are a lot of Pikachu here!" Perhaps that's the same here too?

::It was always either "Kirbys" or "Kirbies", never "Kirby".

:::So it turns out there is an event called "Kirbys on Parade", which may be official conformation that the plural of Kirby is Kirbys. Additionally, there are 8 pages on the wiki that spell it Kirbies, but 23 that spell it Kirbys. I'm thinking we should change all of them to "Kirbys", any objections?

== Adding some of Kirby's move names == | == Adding some of Kirby's move names == | ||
So I was recently discussing this on the Discord. In Kirby's series he has a copy ability called '{{S|Wikirby|Smash}}', which takes some of his moves from this game and makes them into his own copy ability. As is the custom for many Kirby games, those moves have been given their respective names as well. Now, today, I'm not suggesting we add all of Kirby's moves from his games that we can recognise, however I would like to add the ones that have been confirmed by this copy ability as of Planet Robobot: Vulcan Jab, Twinkle Star and Air Drop, for his jab, neutral air and up throw respectively. Further confirming that these are official names for the moves within Smash Bros is that the ability was renamed to 'Smash Bros' in Planet Robobot. To repeat, I'm not (yet) pushing to add all other recognisable moves from his copy abilities, only focusing on the Smash ability at this time. I'll be back to add these names in a few days if nobody opposes this. If you would like to learn more, take a look at the article linked in this post.
