 Wears a hat? That's a feather crest, and I don't see any sort of witch hat in there...--BJG {{unsigned|Blackjack Gabbiani}}
+:You don't see the resemblance to a witch? I'm surprised. It is supposed to be a crest, but it's also supposed to be a pointed witches' hat. Heck - even it's tailfeathers are shaped like the bristles on a witches' broomstick. The whole design comes off as a witch/crow combination. - Zeta {{unsigned|Zeta}}

-== Name Origin ==
 I'm pretty sure that the "Mur" part of the name is derived from the word "murder", which is the name for a group of crows, not "murky". Anyone else have any input?--[[User:Yoshi1001|Yoshi1001]] 03:38, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 :Murk. Crow. Say it fast. Murkrow. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">T</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">T</span>]][[wp:Echidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">E</span><span style="color:#0000FF;">chidna</span>]]''' 10:12, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

+Is there such a thing as a gold Murkrow? A friend of mine said she saw one in Eterna Forest. [[User:Inker|Inker]] 04:20, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

-== Murkrow the steel type ==
+==Murkrow the steel type==
 just pointing out that under the listing of murkrow's attacks, steel wing is listed as having a STAB effect which doesn't make any sense unless murkrow was a steel type. [[User:Darkcloud1111|Darkcloud1111]] 06:09, 27 July 2008 (UTC)Darkcloud1111
-== Gold Sprite Backwards ==
+==Gold Sprite Backwards==
+Why does the Gold sprite appear to be facing AWAY from the opponent. It's backwards...Was that a Nintendo whoops moment or is its eye facing the opponent so it's ment to look like that? [[User:Bttsstewart|Bttsstewart]] 01:37, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

 :I'm guessing it was flipped, alot of the sprites have this issue. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Smarter than the average bear!]] 01:49, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
-== Heart Gold Location ==
+==Heart Gold Location==
 Correction to Murkrow locations for Heart Gold. It need not be traded. It can be found in it's normal haunts from G/S/C as well as in the Lake region of the Safari Zone on Cianwood [[User:Chromehawk|Chromehawk]] 10:35, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 :Considering all HGSS location updates were unable to be completed before we discovered that stupid app, it's understandable. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#DAA520">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#C0C0C0">chidna</span>]]''' 02:07, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
-== "Hat" Size ==
+=="Hat" Size==
 Murkrow's "hat" seemingly doubles in size in Generation IV. Is this Trivia-worthy? --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] 19:35, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

-== French name ==
+==French name==
 In the "Name in other languages" section, it says Murkrow's French name is "Corboss" wich is Honchkrow's. And i don't know Murkrow's French name.--[[User:Mamutepeq|Mamutepeq]] ([[User talk:Mamutepeq|talk]]) 13:54, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
