Regarding edit summaries[edit]

I've noticed you have a heavy tendency to use very short and meaningless edit summaries, such as "Yup", "Yes", "Wah", etc. These are of no benefit to anyone; in general, you should either use the edit summary space to either describe your edit, or else leave it blank if the edit is of little importance and doesn't need to be described.

I'll add something to this - every time I see these, I think some vandal is attacking the article, causing me to waste time and energy checking it. I was considering confronting you about it myself, but obviously, Miles beat me to it. So yeah, sorry to spoil your fun, but please include a proper edit summary from now on - although you may choose to not include one at all. Black Vulpine (talk) 16:37, 15 April 2017 (EDT)

Rankings order on pages[edit]

This is a somewhat minor gripe, but I've noticed that you seem to put the "Global Rankings" first on smasher pages by default. However, I feel like listing the ranking that the player is ranked highest on first (almost always a regional ranking) and then going down from there flows better with the page.

On the reverse end of the spectrum, though, I feel like for that same reason, it's unnecessary to list every ranking in the infobox for a smasher. I think just listing the most "influential" ranking list (for example, the "Global Rankings") will suffice.

Also, just to follow up on the section right above this one, could you please stop putting just "Edited" in your edit summaries? It essentially tells us nothing about what you're changing. If you're going to do that, you're better off just leaving the edit summary blank. PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 10:36, 30 June 2017 (EDT)

Regarding renaming pages[edit]

You do this by moving them. Click 'move' at the top of a page to move it. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the internets go! :3 02:23, 21 March 2018 (EDT)
