[edit] Danger-Like

I'm just the king of bringing up minor issues on years-abandoned talk pages, aren't I? So I looked at the history of this page, and it looks like a while ago, StarFox added the fun fact that "Dangeresque" literally means "danger-like". DeFender1031 removed it on the grounds that "HRWiki is not a dictionary". While I agree with this, and I don't think every word should be defined on our illustrious wiki, I would argue that this is actually a valid fun fact, if maybe worded a little different. I doubt that everyone knows that "-esque" means "-like", and I personally think it's a little bit funny that Dangeresque has this cool-sounding name that actually makes no sense. How's about you's?

I agree with this one. It's totally a fun-fact and should be included. TheThingé 20:49, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
