| '''Delete''' K.K. Slider's role is no more than any other background character, he just happens to take the spotlight (in the background) under certain stage-specific conditions. It's not like how Kraid drives the rotation of Brinstar Depths - K.K. is subservient to the stage.

| :Kraid drives a major component of Brinstar Depths (spinning the platforms). K.K. drives a major component of Smashville (the music). They both warrant pages.

| :::::How is it not? It's the game actually overriding a player controlled interface (My Music), so you can't argue that it's non-interactive if that's what you're getting at.

| :::::::That's an extremely narrow definition of gameplay, though. And we maintain a great number of pages on elements of the games beyond those which affect the direct combat between characters.

| '''Support deletion.''' He's only a background character, and as such, shouldn't get a page. He doesn't affect gameplay at all, with the exception of the music in [[Smashville]], but that's not really notable enough for its own page, and can just be easily be put on the [[Smashville]] page. <font face="Marker Felt">[[User:Rtzxy|<span style="color:red;">Rtzxy</span>]] [[File:Reflect.jpg|20x20px]] [[User talk:Rtzxy|<span style="color:green;">''Reflect!''</span>]]</font> 15:04, 17 December 2014 (EST)

| <br>'''Strong Oppose''' I concur with Miles. Music is a very important part in Smash. <span style="font-family:AR JULIAN; font-size:12pt">[[User:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:red">Chuck</span>]][[User talk:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:green">Norris</span>]]</span>[[File:24.png|23px]] 16:09, 17 December 2014 (EST)

| :I fail to see how music effects the game in the same way that the platform rotating does. All other stage elements with pages ([[Fish]] and [[Kraid]], for example) directly change the battle. Music is just background noise to make the battle more interesting. It doesn't matter if it's interactive, or if this is a special occasion on music. All K.K. Slider needs is a mention of Smashville to the effect of "On Saturday nights, K.K. Slider may appear and play one of his songs." There isn't enough information on this page relevant to Smash. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]].

| ::That's as fallacious as trying to reduce Kraid's presence "Kraid may appear and spin the stage." Also, K.K.'s on two stages, and has been a trophy in three games, both of which are more than can be said for Kraid.

| :::Honestly Kraid isn't overly deserving of a page, but he has a bigger role than K.K. Slider's. Both of their pages are made up of non-Smash based information. I'm tempted to clean up the overly irrelevant information (keeping the information that's important to the character) just to see if they really deserve pages. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]].

| ::::Both deserve a page. As you may have seen [[User:Miles of SmashWiki/To-do list|here]], I'm aiming for a slightly broader range of characters that warrant articles, not fewer.

| :::::I proposed [[SmashWiki:Creating new articles|this]] for a reason, as a guideline as to what can and cannot become an article. I really don't want a wider range of article choices, mainly because I don't want this wiki to be MarioWiki-like with articles. <font face="Marker Felt">[[User:Rtzxy|<span style="color:red;">Rtzxy</span>]] [[File:Reflect.jpg|20x20px]] [[User talk:Rtzxy|<span style="color:green;">''Reflect!''</span>]]</font> 19:53, 17 December 2014 (EST)

| ::::::As I clarify in more detail on the talk page of my userpage listed above, I'm using very specifically delineated rules for what does and doesn't get an article. K.K. would under my system as a background element that does more than simply appear visually, making him more significant than most other background elements (Four Giants on Great Bay, Skarmory on PS2, and so on).

| If the only reason he has a page is because of your personal rules, we probably need a policy. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]]. Or maybe [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta.]] </small> 20:58, 17 December 2014 (EST)

| :Okay, for starters, this page has existed since before I joined the site. That aside, I would not be opposed to trying to codify this kind of thing more consistently. As it stands, I'm mostly extrapolating from the kinds of pages we already have and trying to be more consistent (again, see [[User talk:Miles of SmashWiki/To-do list|here]]).
