-*'''Donkey Kong Wiki''' still lacks level articles for the most recent Donkey Kong game, ''[http://www.donkeykongwiki.com/DKCR#Levels Donkey Kong Country Returns]''. In fact, some vandals copy pasted some articles from MarioWiki, which still aren't completely cleansed.

 *'''Icaruspedia''' could use some assistance in covering ''[http://www.kidicaruswiki.org/Kid_Icarus:_Uprising Kid Icarus: Uprising]''. It's cool how Kid Icarus' comeback reflects the wiki's comeback.
 *'''Wikirby''' is short some articles on ''[http://www.wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby%27s_Return_to_Dream_Land Kirby's Return to Dreamland]''. If you love 2D Kirby that isn't yarn related, you'll love this game.

+:''Brawl requests''
+:And how is this something new? Or problematic for that matter when users are contributing?
+:''User page/Sub page edits (hello SSB4 roster fad)''
+:This is nothing new at all. Userpage edits have been around forever and will continue to be. And again, as long as the Wiki is being constructively contributed to, there's no problem with this.
+:''Minor edits to existing articles''
+:There's no problem with minor edits, and this is false anyway [http://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Anti_Planking&curid=30145&action=history ] [http://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Camping&diff=412062&oldid=411790] [http://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Falco_%28SSBB%29&curid=809&diff=414659&oldid=414657&rcid=122501] [http://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Glancing_blow&diff=next&oldid=414116]
+:''What I'm trying to address is that our community's heart is certainly in the right place, just not the right time.''
+:It's always "the right time". Just because others Wikis are lacking doesn't mean this Wiki shouldn't be contributed to.
+:''At the same time, several other wiki affiliates are lacking information.''
+:That's their problem, not ours. Do not berate the users here for those Wikis' lack of activity.
+:''but remember what wikis are for.''
+:Despite your claims, users are still contributing constructively to the Wiki, with minor and major edits. Just because it isn't all work is not a problem.
+:Now bring the lack of information problem to those Wikis themselves, not complain to the users here about them. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 23:59, 5 April 2012 (EDT)
+::I do agree to the looks of things, Wiki Brawling has been going around for a while. Wiki contributing is still pretty ok I guess as long as they edit something useful to the wiki.
