Talk:Menma Namikaze

Family
Aside from the obvious additions, the family section in the infobox has to be corrected. He obviously isn't married to Hinata or father of those two brats. • Seelentau 愛 議 16:38, September 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * Can we please start discussing things before we add headaches to smw? ~SnapperTo 16:48, September 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * What? :O • Seelentau 愛 議 16:50, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * @Snapper, he is indeed called 'Menma Namikaze' in the credits, so in a way, he's a new character.--Omojuze (talk) 16:54, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Why does this article exist? Why can't whatever information that will go into it be a trivia point somewhere else? Infoboxes have enough problems correctly processing information that is "real" in the series. Is an additional layer of problems for "fictional" information also required? ~SnapperTo 16:55, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * It could, tbh.--Omojuze (talk) 16:59, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Article looks good. That'd be one hell of a long trivia point otherwise. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 17:02, September 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * The article exists because he's a new character. It's not my fault that the wiki can't correctly process it. • Seelentau 愛 議 17:06, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * There's still the whole notion of adding Hinata as an user of Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven and creating a Salamander page for Hanzō's Summoning. Fillers like these just make you scratch heads.. :) --Omojuze (talk) 17:07, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Why? It's all a dream. Hinata can't use that technique the same way Neji isn't alive. • Seelentau 愛 議 17:08, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * There are things like Starch Syrup Binding Rope and Middle-Aged Attack which are added tho.--Omojuze (talk) 17:09, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * So? The Hinata in the filler is the normal Hinata, but the Hinata in the filler's dream is a different Hinata. Just like it's not her personality in the real world, it's not her technique in the real world. • Seelentau 愛 議 17:13, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * The other techniques aren't also used by the normal counterparts. We should do something that groups everything in the same way and not 50 this/50 that.--Omojuze (talk) 17:15, September 3, 2015 (UTC)

Well, essentially, we have three characters: Normal, movie and dream. Each has their own specific traits (Movie Menma using a Spiraling Ring, dream Hinata using the Kaiten), putting them together would be plain wrong. • Seelentau 愛 議 17:26, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Treating them like the same character would be wrong. Putting them together might be manageable, depending. ~SnapperTo 17:32, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Article-wise, yes. Infobox-wise I'm not so sure... • Seelentau 愛 議 17:34, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Other than alternate-specific jutsu, what snafus are likely to emerge? ~SnapperTo 17:40, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh, so that family problem was solved, I see. Well, for example, Menma Namikaze apparently isn't genin, but chunin? At least Kushina said he wasn't jonin yet, indicating that it would be the next rank he'd achieve. Also, that Menma isn't jinchuriki of all tailed beasts etc. • Seelentau 愛 議 17:50, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Menma might need to be kept separate from Naruto for sake of convenience. Would there be issues with mentioning Tenten's Menma in movie Menma's article? ~SnapperTo 17:57, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Whats the issue with keeping this article separate? Its not gonna kill anyone as it is now. --Bio havik (talk) 18:03, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Menma Uzumaki and Menma Namikaze are the same person. --Sharingan91 (talk) 19:27, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Not to take sides, but the credits credited him as "Menma Namikaze" while the movie offcialized him as "Menma Uzumaki". Now I take YOUR side that they are the same person like Tenten was sent to the RTNverse with minor changes or whatnot, but that's what the credits say. Could be a typo Shock Dragoon (talk) 19:33, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * I think that, we should combine the two pages, calling "Menma" and write this difference in trivia. --Sharingan91 (talk) 19:50, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
