Editing Category talk:Items

Okay, a few proposals having to deal with items in general... Single notes, note nests, and treble clefs are all the same thing, just in different amounts. I think we should just merge the articles into one ''Music Note'' or ''Musical Note'' page, maybe with a plural title. Also, same thing with egg and feather nests: way too specific, not very useful.

Double Honeycombs and Air Bubbles aren't really items, they're more like attributes, and I don't think they deserve their own articles. Bubbles could be included in the ''Swimming'' article or whatever, and Double Honeycombs...well, actually, that's kind of a big spoiler by itself. I think we should mention it sparingly and only under a Spoiler tag, like in the ''Top of the Tower'' article or something. Same goes for the giant egg and feathers, actually.

Finally, I'd like to divide these articles into at least two categories...well, two really, since I can't think of another one. ''Collectibles'' for things that are put into an inventory, like Glowbos, Notes, etc., and something like ''Ability Items'' (you know, something along those lines, only less stupid sounding) for items required to execute an ability, like shoes and pads (flight, shock, and split-up). Eggs and feathers would go into both categories I think, since they can be stocked and used to perform abilities. I'm not totally sure where to put other interactable objects like batteries and hatchable eggs...I think we already have an ''Objects'' category for those, but that's a pretty vague name...

Oh yeah, also, I was going to mention this in [[Category talk:Characters]], but I might as well mention it here since I've already started the page. What do you think about a ''Technology and Powers'' category? Thing that would go in it would be like Warp Cauldrons, BOB, Chuffy, and some other things which don't easily fit into other categories. {{User:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

Well? {{User:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
:Yes, merge all item articles as you mentioned..except I think the red honeycomb energy deserves its own article. And the categories you mentioned are good too. But will all articles still go into the items category? Cheers, <tt>[[User:Chicken7|Chicken7]]   <small><small><sup>>[[User talk:Chicken7|talk]]</sup></small></small></tt> 06:06, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

::I'm a bit worried about the spoiler aspect of Double Honeycombs, although it wouldn't be the first time an entire article was a spoiler... I think it would fit appropriately under [[:Category:Secrets and Easter eggs]], at least. As for the ''Items'' category, yeah, it could be a supercategory for ''Collectibles'' and ''Ability items''. Actually, now that I think about it, pads and shoes could probably go under ''Objects''....but I'm kind of wondering what else would go in there. The floaty things, I guess. I mean, like I said, the word "object" is really vague when it comes to describing things. I dunno. {{User:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

	:::Yes, I think the secrets category is a good place for red honeycomb energy; it isn't really a item anyway. Cheers, <tt>[[User:Chicken7\|Chicken7]] <small><small><sup>>[[User talk:Chicken7\|talk]]</sup></small></small></tt> 06:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
