Notices
The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

:Much of the terms throughout the glossary are already fan terms, so there's no need for a separate "fanbase-centric" section. As for those two terms; "Anime Swordsman" has little applicable purposes that makes it worth defining here, something like "Swordie" is a much more applicable term, and I don't even know what you mean by "Cereal Mascot", that's absolutely not a term I see at all used within a Smash context. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 17:30, June 29, 2023 (EDT)

::Cereal Mascot is a term to refer forgotten cartoony characters from old video games (mostly platformers like Crash or Banjo) with cult followings. it was some sort of weird insult towards people who wanted Banjo-Kazooie. Nowadays, the slang was replaced with "Scrimblo Bimblo the Loveable Scrunko" in which translated to "Any video game character with a cartoony design. Old or new, Famous or Niche, animal or not, it doesn't matter what genre came from". It came from a Twitter post (which also spawned the "Popular McRPGguy").

:::"''Cereal Mascot is a term to refer forgotten cartoony characters from old video games (mostly platformers like Crash or Banjo) with cult followings.''"
:::That is absolutely not any sort of Smash-relevant term, and putting shit like this in the glossary would bloat it to hell with useless "terminology". <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 18:47, June 29, 2023 (EDT)
