Can we get proof/citation that Toriel is the biological parent of Asriel?

That is stated nowhere in the game, nor does Asriel ever appear in the game.

Edit: I was referring to Deltarune. Fivework (talk) 01:56, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

About toriel

Is toriel the queen of Undertale 61.245.169.154 (talk) 17:07, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why as 3D render?

This render appears nowhere in either game, nor in any notable associated materials like trailers or store pages. To be blunt, the jokey #D render used in the trailer has more relevance to the canon character. Shouldn't we replace it with her pixel art sprite? Harmonia per misericordia.

I think I found a pretty good source.

I just found this Brazilian source which is reliable (Universo Online) and gives a lot of significant coverage about Toriel specifically (even mentioning her in the title). It should count as "proper examination or discussion of the character". Skyshifter ^talk 16:42, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What makes Universo Online reliable? - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 01:15, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One of the biggest Brazilian websites, it is part of Grupo Folha, the second largest Brazilian media conglomerate, existing since 1921, which also publishes the largest paper of the country, Folha de S.Paulo. Skyshifter ^talk 01:34, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:BLOGS and WP:NEWSBLOG. That page you referenced is an opinion blog by what appears to be a columnist (Fabricio Aguiar). ... blogs may not be subject to the news organization's normal fact-checking process ... At best, you could say that "Fabricio Aguiar writes..." Tarl N. (discuss) 04:32, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I didn't consider that. I guess the source doesn't help much then. Skyshifter ^talk 04:38, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like Aguiar has written column pieces and articles on this publication for years. As a presumably professional writer, I don't think it's a bad source. Just not quite as strong as it would've been if it hadn't been labeled as an opinion piece, but we are talking about fiction here. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 06:41, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do we know any of the author's expertise or credentials? - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 18:08, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't able to find anything about them outside of this publication, so yes, that's pretty weak again. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 06:59, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pointless-ness of Waray editions of these articles.

Someone from the Waray Wikipedia created 3 articles for Toriel, Sans, and Flowey: they all look really bad, and besides, they don't even have an article for Undertale itself there despite making articles for those 3 characters in it. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 01:39, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

good, discuss that there. the english and waray wikipedias are separate projects cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 11:25, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
