:I don't understand why some people seems to take "moving an information from a table to another" as "removing an information", once again, I did not propose to remove the columns, I proposed to transfert them from the arrays where they don't make much sense to the array where they do: the primary/support/master/fighter spirit arrays are about the spirits gameplay stats, while the series array is about the spirits history; the primary/support/master/fighter spirit arrays are arrays where the spirits are separated by types, while the series array contains all the spirits of the series. It makes way more sense to list the origin game and the artwork game with the spirit series. Also there is no "main" table, and we can make the origin array the first one on the page if anyone is so butthurt about the idea not to see the origin game first when loading the page (but I think "importance" is not a thing, "usefulness" should be the thing to be considered when ordering informations, a wiki is not made to please its contributors, it's made to provide efficiently informations to whoever seeks them, and in that regard, I bet on the acquisition column being the most useful).

::Oh, my bad, not "some people", that's actually the same person. OK, Miles, I have a challenge for you: Give me a reason as why this column is so important that it need to be the first thing top of the page other than an authority argument or your personnal feelings. Give me a reason as why the game/artwork origin has anything to do with any other column in the primary/support/master/fighter stats. And give me a reason as why it's a good thing that the game/artwork origin are separated by primary/support/master/fighter spirits. I gave you two very pragmatic arguments: game/artwork origin should grouped with series as both informations are related to the spirit history, and game/artwork origin should be in an array listing all the spirits as it concerns all of them and regardless of their type. So far, you don't seem to have any other argument than "I said so". [[User:YoshiRyu|YoshiRyu]] ([[User talk:YoshiRyu|talk]]) 05:35, February 19, 2020 (EST)

:::And actually, I'm going to do a bit of your job here for you: even if it has downside (as not displaying first something most wiki user are going to be looking for), putting a game/artwork origin and series array first would also make some sense as the page would subconsequently start with a complete list of the spirits rather that the partial list that the primary spirits is. So having a Spirit Origin section, followed by the Primary/Support/Master/Fighter Spirits sections, and then the Spirit Battles and Trivia section would have some merit to it (and in this case, if we go with some kind of "proper order", the Fighter Spirits should probably also be listed before the Primary Spirits).

'''Do not move: ''remove''.''' Or at the absolute least, throw them under the image as a tiny footnoote rather than having them waste space in their own columns. Source game and artwork source are ''false information''; unlike stickers, they are not part of SSBU in any way.

:I'm not sure about what you're saying there. Are you saying that game/artwork origin shouldn't even be on the wiki to begin with as there not official information? I wonder how you feel about the Spirit Battles inspirations column... Anyway, the initial proposal about moving that information is there: https://www.ssbwiki.com/Talk:List_of_spirits_(disambiguation)#Spirits_Origin_section if you cant more details about what was proposed exactly, and if you want to participate in the discussion.
