Talk:Bad ending

Lowercasing the "Ending" in False Ending

I saw that there was a notice for this on the main page, so I've decided to address it. Should the "Ending" in the title be lowercased or stay capitalized? --Paistrie (talk) 00:36, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

I don't think that exact term or bad ending was officially used in-game. If anything, unless we find out otherwise in strategy guides and the like, we should probably leave the "ending" part lowercase. It only makes sense.

On a minor note, I've seen more usage of the term "bad ending" for these types of moments, not just in the Kirby series, so maybe re-name the article to "Bad ending" instead? Just spitballin' an idea here. – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 01:40, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Unless there is any official name for this (maybe in some guidebook?) I also favor "Bad ending" with "ending" lowercase. I think before we move it would be best to double check just to make sure we really have no official name, not even in Japanese. - Gigi (talk • edits) 01:47, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Agree with making bad ending the conjectural title. ---PinkYoshiFan 02:27, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Not a fan of "bad ending" purely from a psychological perspective, but given that this is essentially what it is and there doesn't seem to be an official name for it, then I support that as a name. In any case capitalization is unnecessary. ShadowKirby (t/c) a.k.a. your new overlord ShadowMagolor 07:10, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

You know, naming the page "Bad ending" seems to make even more sense than "False Ending"! Since there appears to be no official sources of the current name, perhaps the page could be renamed to that? If it wouldn't be too much of a hassle, of course. --Paistrie (talk) 16:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Generally agree that "Bad ending" is what should go here. It would be the least confusing for new readers. --Samwell (talk) 18:51, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
