::::The question is, is it enough to warrant its own article. They were only special in Melee and Brawl. I think the amount of information/explanation that exists for Past Stages in Melee and Melee Stages in Brawl is very minimal; basically just a sentence stating that they had a special name and were separate (to a degree). The sections for the games past Brawl are only here to prevent this article from being a stub (in my view). [[User:Smore|Smore]] ([[User talk:Smore|talk]]) 15:03, July 13, 2019 (EDT)

:::::If we keep this page, I would at least propose differentiating between ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', which have returning stages as a separate section from the new ones, and ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', which freely intertwine the old stages with the new. ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 15:24, July 13, 2019 (EDT)

:::::::Why should we have 2 separate stages for what is generally the same concept? [[User:Lou Cena|Lou Cena]] ([[User talk:Lou Cena|talk]]) 18:51, July 13, 2019 (EDT)
::::::::I wasn't necessarily saying we should split them into separate pages. Rather, they're just treated inherently differently between games and should be acknowledged as such. "Past Stages" in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'' are just the same as any other stage, being the majority of ''Ultimate''{{'}}s roster, compared to them being a limited, exclusive selection in the previous two games. ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 19:14, July 13, 2019 (EDT)
:::::::::'''Oppose''' Same reason as <strike>Toomai</strike>. [[:User:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164{{#if:|_({{{3}}})}}|ZeldaStarfoxfan2164]] ([[User talk:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164|talk]]) is a never lover boy  19:22, October 6, 2019 (EDT)
::::::::::Toomai supported deletion, though... [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: black;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: orange">'''the Spooky Rurouni'''</span>]] 19:33, October 6, 2019 (EDT)
:::::::::::Sorry, I was expecting either "Support" or "Oppose" though. [[:User:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164{{#if:|_({{{3}}})}}|ZeldaStarfoxfan2164]] ([[User talk:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164|talk]]) is bad for me  22:38, October 6, 2019 (EDT)
::::::::::::So I believe that this page should be deleted and instead redirect to a page (but idk) [[User:Countmevin|japan]]  18:08, October 16, 2019 (EDT)
<s>'''Oppose''' per reasons above. [[User:Awesomelink234|<span style="font-size:10pt;background:#00FF20;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px;color:#050DF7">Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer</span>]] [[User talk:Awesomelink234|Leave a message if needed]] 01:32, August 7, 2019 (EDT)</s>
So this seems to be a pretty even discussion. I'd like to bump this so we can figure out if this truly should get deleted. I, for one, think this page should stay, but changed to only focus on its usages in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', since in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', it's obsolete.

:'''Support''' I still believe that this information would be better suited on the main [[stage]] article, but I can readily accept the compromise of trimming the page to only talk about the Past Stages in Melee and the Melee Stages in Brawl. (Maybe a small blurb could exist as a description for the returning stages in Smash 4, Ultimate, and possible future games.)

:'''Support only talking about Melee and Brawl''', as those are the only games where past stages are given a distinction from new stages. [[Special:Contributions/72.203.118.154|72.203.118.154]] 02:02, January 12, 2020 (EST)
I accept this as it's own article too, should we remove the tag? [[User:Lucina-is-better-than-marth|Lucina-is-better-than-marth]] ([[User talk:Lucina-is-better-than-marth|talk]]) 09:53, November 19, 2019 (EST)
'''Make it a disambiguation page''' There's no need for all of this information, but it also can't be an easy redirect. Thus, we should make this into a short disambiguation page, with links to the sub-sections of the stage pages for Melee, Brawl, and 4, plus a quick note that virtually all stages return in Ultimate. Happy to do this myself if we have consensus (old sysop me would have just done it here and now).

I now '''support''' Aidan's idea to only have this focus on its usage in Melee and Brawl.
