::::Literally no one argued about the possibility of dropping placeholder symbols altogether in the archived talk page, so that's still unsatisfactory reasoning to me. --[[User:Rdrfc|Rdrfc]] ([[User talk:Rdrfc|talk]]) 11:08, February 17, 2020 (EST) | ::::Literally no one argued about the possibility of dropping placeholder symbols altogether in the archived talk page, so that's still unsatisfactory reasoning to me. --[[User:Rdrfc|Rdrfc]] ([[User talk:Rdrfc|talk]]) 11:08, February 17, 2020 (EST) | ||
:::::I have considered the idea of dropping the placeholder symbol before the ellipsis thing came. But the admins wanted there to be some kind of symbol. Then Ultimate gives us a symbol for "Other" and they decided to only use it for lists about Ultimate while all the characters continue to use the Battlefield symbol, including the primary Spirits that used the ellipsis in-game like [[Spring Man]]. I really don't get why they love the Battlefield symbol so much. More people in the archived discussion favored the ellipsis. I understand the need for a placeholder symbol because losing it would break formatting. But the decision to keep using the Battlefield symbol after we've been given a better alternative broke this wiki.

::::::SmashWiki is ''[[SW:CONSENSUS|consenses]]'' based, not ''vote count''. More valid reasons were provided to keep the Battlefield symbol (ellipses looked out of place comparedto actual symbols, they looked like misplaced text, etc.) whereas the only valid reason for the ellipses was because it was official. If there are other reasons that make the ellipses better that you can provide then go ahead and mention them.
