This is motivated by the recent discussion about Electroshock/Upperdash Arm, Dancing Blade/Double-Edge Dance and Fox/Falco's Blasters. I feel there should be some kind or policy, or at least a discussion about what similar/cloned special moves should be separated, and what ones should be covered in a single shared page. | This is motivated by the recent discussion about Electroshock/Upperdash Arm, Dancing Blade/Double-Edge Dance and Fox/Falco's Blasters.

After reading all the points listed here and reviewing each potential candidate for a merge or split, I move that we '''Leave as is'''. Additionally, I agree with Miles: move properties should be mostly irrelevant in the splitting/merging of a special move page. If the name of the move is different, the moves should have their own pages. The only exception I can think of to this rule is Dr. Mario, but that should be a given. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">'''King'''</span></span>]] 21:37, 16 April 2016 (EDT) | After reading all the points listed here and reviewing each potential candidate for a merge or split, I move that we '''Leave as is'''.

:Can you elaborate though on why you think that is how it should be? I will admit that it is nice to have cloned moves with the same name on the same page. And, what would you think about Super Sheet, Silver Bow, Wolf's Blaster, Electroshock Arm, and Fire Arrow?
