Talk:Dipper Pines

Organization
This page really needs some work. First off, it's very unorganized (ironically it's Dipper we're talking about here). I think it would be best if in the 'History' section, we only add the 'Arrival at Gravity Falls' part. A character page should talk about the character only, not the whole plot from this certain character's point of view. That's what the episode pages are for.

Also, 'Social Life' should just fall under 'Relationships' as the only topic under it seems to be his relationship with Wendy. It should also be very brief and not completely detailed on each and every interaction they had. Just a quick summary on how things are currently going between them. (Sort of like the pages in the Adventure Time Wiki). Then under the 'Relationships' section, I think it would be better if we also include a very brief description of his relationships with other characters he interacts with throughout the series (Soos, Robby, etc.).

Then there's the arrangement of the sections. A character page aims to tell the readers what the character is like. So I suggest you put 'Physical Appearance' first, followed by 'Personality' and 'Abilities', then all the other stuff like 'History', 'Relationships', etc.

Oh, and one last thing, the first bullet in the 'Trivia' section should actually fall under 'Personality'.

Update
'''I'm looking at all the character pages and they seem to be updated episode to episode. Which is good. It actually is nessesary expaining the character's point of veiw in plots. However, i'm looking at dipper's (who is in fact the MAIN protagonist of the series, beleive it or not) page, and i see that it hasnt been updated since irrational treasure. its also disorganized as his biography is out of order. Please, who ever updates character pages, put some effort into dipper's page. its irritating how empty it is. even robbie's page is more up to date than his.'''

'''Also, on a side note, the relationship section should not only include his family. it should also include his friends and enemies.'''

Even though it's unorganized, it is a good article though. ILikeCheese DON'T LIE! 9:09, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

Rodrick
Guys! Dipper's real name is Rodrick! in the episode Irrational Treasure, The former President called him Rodrick and Dipper was about to say "Uh, Actually I go by Dipper".
 * No, he says "Uh, actually, uh..." and Trembley cuts him off.[ EvergreenFir]   [ Talk][ Contributions]03:23, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Dude....he's name is not roderick,but dipper wanted his name to be tyrone during the ep.double dipper because he mentioned tyrone is his favorite name.So he's name is not tyrone or roderick,but rather just dipper.


 * actually I'm pretty sure Dipper is not his real name. In Double Dipper, Wendy says it was his NICKNAME. His true name is still a mystery though. Lightningstrike of RapidClan 15:31, April 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok so I heard some people saying the Bledin Blendon is actually Dipper from the future. Foughts on this?


 * That would be impossibe, as Blendin Blandin is from twenty-snyeventy-twelve, which is probably a future so far off that they had to make up numbers to count the years, which means Dipper would be long dead by the time Blendin Blandin was around. Unless technology to live forever is created in the very near future, I really doubt this. 68.40.63.200 20:17, May 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * It may be Rodrick, but we will have to see if it is true in future episodes. MY PRECIOUS!!! 15:39, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

May I change Dipper's picture to this?

 * We vote on image changes in Forum:Infobox_Image_Replacements. Typically, we like a screencap for the infobox. 00:18, April 28, 2013 (UTC)

Voice
Why is the voice he had in "Voice Over" ("Bottomless Pit") listed?! We don't have the voice the ghosts had when they possesed Mabel on Mabel's page. And I don't even think that "Voice Over" is canon. 68.40.63.200 20:22, May 1, 2013 (UTC)

When they possessed Mabel, that wasn't Mabel's voice. But Dipper actually changed his own voice, he wasn't controlled or possessed at all. Voice Over IS canon, even if it is a true story or not, Dipper told it in the episode and he was voiced by another. -One dies and one survives. Then the one who died-didn't die. And the one who survived-survived when he got $-12, which he didn't.

'''Then should the possesed voice be the ghosts' page? 68.40.63.200 00:55, May 2, 2013 (UTC)'''

Pine Tree
Shouldn't "Pine Tree" be added to the other names list? (it's what "Bill Cipher" calls him) I don't know how to add it in Source mode.Olssonk (talk) 12:09, July 14, 2013 (UTC)

Dipper Nickname
The Gnomes and Gideon call Dipper "boy". To me that's kind of like a nickname. Gideon: "Oh you'll see boy, you'll see" Replacing "boy" with Dipper. "Oh you'll see Dipper, you'll see" Just a suggestion that "boy" should be in the other names thing.

Also, on his Pines family fishing hat, he is called Dippy, does this count to??? DipperPines12 Also why can we not edit this?

Names
Should "City Boy" be added to Dipper's names? The officers called him that in Headhunters. C r y s    (t a l k)   01:06, August 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * Just the once tho. I wouldn't consider it a nickname at all.


 * Ooh, okay.  C r y s     (t a l k)   02:09, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Nickname?
Would Dippy be a nickname? "I do not fear death." —Aragorn

Dippy sounds like a cool name

Yeah, I agree. I'm making my own signature Mabel. Stop! OK, now tell me what is the problem?

Wish you guys would put a time stamp on your sigs... and when was he called dippy? 16:41, November 29, 2013 (UTC)

In The legand of the gobblewonker, on his hat Friends are like potatoes. When you eat them, they die.  20:58, November 29, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hm... No, I don't think so. That looked more like Stan not wanting to spell out his whole name because it would take longer to sew or something. Also, it's never mentioned again. If it is, I think it should be added, but until then... 22:21,12/14/2013


 * Would Roderick count as "other name"? Dipper Pines 19:40, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * No. It was only a gag said in passing. 22:04, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
