:::I can agree with making them more consistent across all special moves, but the way you're going about doing feels sloppy.

Trophy pages

It's appreciated that you're applying the template, but the discussion has been veering away from the "one list per page" idea. Maybe you could hold off merging the tables for now. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Riotous 16:34, 18 December 2014 (EST)

Undoing

Why did you undo a few of my edits? I'm curious as you left the summery empty. Wolff (talk)

Because you're adding unnecessary extra space and it makes the pages look sloppy. Wazzup111 (talk) 21:34, April 13, 2019 (EDT)

I understand your reasoning when you explain it.
Usually, an "overview" is a "summary of a subject". Some pages had a short summery, a basic idea of the move. A lot of the info stated in the overviews can be reorganized to be part of the main page. What I mean by that, Thunder (Pokémon) did not have an Overview, and the info that was stated after "is Pikachu and Pichu's down special move" was perfect to be an Overview. Stages are probably the main exception that I've seen.
One of the main differences between Thunder (Pokémon) and some other pages is that Thunder (Pokémon) had different sections for its appearances (and changes) in each Smash installment (it mostly seems to be Smash 4 newcomers' moves that don't seem to have that) rather than them being clumped together in the "Overview". Another reason to separate the the info of the moves from the Overview, is that most pages list the subject's origin if it did not originate from Smash itself. With that in mind, the stages are the only pages that don't really follow that, while the moves themselves, like I mentioned, are inconsistent. It would be much better if all the moves explained the differences between installments.
The "overview" is really only used by stages and moves. If the moves do not need to have an "Overview", then it can start with the move's Origin, if it has one, like pretty much all the non-Smash and non-stage pages. Wolff (talk) 00:37, April 14, 2019 (EDT)
