== Archeops == | |||
Look, obviously you think of yourself as the best, most unbiased, most knowledgeable Bulbapedia editor ever. So I'm not actually going to change anything from the name origin section of Archeops because it's really tiring to turn a fun thing into a discussion with an unresponsive wall. Heck, I won't even look at what you reply here (if you even take the time to reply to an under educated, substandard editor wannabe thing like me). | |||
But I will say this just so that you "try" to be a bit less judgmental next time: | |||
1. Name origin section is exactly that: a guide to try to clarify the origins of pokemon names. The suffix ops in Archeops is obviously taken from dinosaur names in order to make it sound more "dinosaur-like", like it or not. Yeah probably they didn't think about what it meant, but when naming a fossil pokemon, real dinosaur names is the first source they will use. | |||
2. There are only two possible scenarios with your correction of my correction: either I'm right about the origin of the name and you're too near-sighted to see it, or you're right and it has nothing to do, but at the same time you're a hypocrite for thinking just for one second that a completely obscure connection to Egyptian "Cheops" is more plausible than a bona fide taxonomic dinosaur name. {{unsigned|Tailswalker}} | |||
:If you looked at the most recent edit I made, you would see I did not dispute your addition of the -ops suffix nor the removal of Cheops. I merely rearranged the parts of the section to make the obvious Archeopteryx origin the most prominent and to downplay the "this is literally where the name comes from" segment, given that Pokemon names virtually universally are created by wordplay, not literal translation.
