So what I am saying is that all of the information on these four pages should just be put on one page. What is your opinion on the matter? I feel this is something worth having a discussion about. <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[File:John3637881 Signature.png|20px]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 15:55, 28 October 2015 (EDT)

:This is a very valid point. The only characters who require one page for every move are Palutena and the Mii Fighters. Almost every custom move has moderate differences at best, damage and knockback more often than not. In this case, a blast of wind and a dash forward don't deserve their own pages.

[/X special/Default], [/X special/Custom 1], and [/X special/Custom 2] are for the technical information of each variation, and elaboration of the variation's strengths and weaknesses. (For various reasons, having technial information for all variations on one page is infeasible.) [/X special], if not just a redirect to [/X special/Default], would be a higher-level overview of the move as a whole with minimal technical information. It should be somewhat similar to how [[Mario (SSBB)/Neutral attack]] describes the attack overall, and has subpages for data of each individual part of the attack.

:Care to elaborate on the "various reasons"? A lot of these move pages are quite short, and condensing them into fewer, larger pages would seem preferable to me.

::Personally, I find it more difficult to edit...and read. Heck, even multi-hit move pages feel a bit cluttered as is.

:::It's a difficult decision. If the pages are split, like Toomai said, there will be too many pages for just one move. However, if the pages are merged, like Miles suggested, they will be teeming with boards, and will be hard to edit and navigate without the content table.

:They may be short in byte count, but the data templates are quite expensive processing-wise, particularly the frame strips. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Boss 09:33, 29 October 2015 (EDT)
