:Actually, what we've done is quite crafty, because it means that users such as myself can still edit the page constructively, but you can't ruin it by changing it into crappy SmashWikia's crappy article. CrappyCaptureDevice himself doesn't mind a jot that you can't edit his page. In fact, we're all rather jolly that you can't. You claim you are going to stop vandalising, and are going to help out with the Wiki, but calling Miles a bully and constantly turning pages into their inferior forms isn't entirely helping.

== Smasherspace ==
Alright, let's look at the definition of [[Smasher]] we use:
''A smasher refers to '''a dedicated player of any Super Smash Bros. game''', though the term came into regular use in competitive Melee. Although '''even casual Smash Bros. players can be considered smashers''', the term is mostly used in the smash community when talking about competitive players and professionals, especially those who compete in local or regional tournaments. '' (emphasis added)
CCD is certainly "dedicated" in the sense that he has put up a vast amount of history behind the series, and he is notable enough to warrant an article. Thus, he belongs in Smasherspace. Furthermore, the article still contains the tag "smasher". We might as well move it to the appropriate setting.

:We've established our definition of Smasher in terms of individuals to be those who play the game competitively or are strongly associated with the competitive scene. It does not extend to other persons of importance to the Smash community.

::What about [[Gideon]] then? He's not a competitive player, and only indirectly is related to the competitive scene.

:::He founded SmashBoards. That qualifies as associated with the competitive scene to me.

I actually didn't see this before I moved the page to the smasher space, but anyways, Miles' arguments are terribad as usual; one's ties to the competitive scene is not a criteria for being in the smasher space. A person who gained significance in the community that did not have a part in the development of Smash, yet managed to satisfy our notability guidelines to get an article here, goes in the smasher namespace. CCD "not being a part of the competitive community" is completely irrelevant. <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> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:22, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
== Smash History  (The Game Theorist) ==
Should there be an article on the ''Smash History'' series on The Game Theorist channel on YouTube? While their videos are not nearly as in depth as CCD was, nor do they have as many videos as CCD does, they are pretty popular on YouTube with all their videos either in the millions or close. CCD also has been inactive for almost 4 years, and TGT does Smash History videos for Sm4sh, making them more relevant. For better or worse they are far more popular than CCD was in his prime, and are the most notable people doing history videos currently, so I believe at least the video series itself should have an article on the wiki. Thoughts?

:No. The only reason this gets mentioned is the fact that CCD also actually plays. TGT does not.

::Actually, there's a better reason. See, CCD is Smash only; GT spans across multiple games.

::::Yea, I know, but the rest of his channel spans across all games. (Also, that technically isn't MatPat in that.)

:::::I also wasn't arguing for TGT to have an article, but rather the video series itself. And I'm sure the guy who does the series (it's indeed not Mat Pat, but idk who it is off the top of my head) plays Smash too on an amateur level just as CCD did.  [[User:Unknown the Hedgehog|<font color="#FF0000">Unknown </font>]] [[User talk:Unknown the Hedgehog|<font color="#780000">the </font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Unknown the Hedgehog|<font color="#000000">Hedgehog</font>]] 16:02, 6 October 2015 (EDT)
You mean Trailer Drake? He has his own channel. Just check the channels tab on the GT page. [[User:DekZek|<font color="Black">'''DekZek, '''</font><font color="Orange">'''The creature of your nightmares'''</font>]] [[File:Dekzeksig-Oct.png|23px|link=User talk:DekZek]] 16:33, 6 October 2015 (EDT)

::::If you ask me, I don't think the Game Theoriest is notable or even talked about in the Smash community while CCD is notable on the other hand.
