| Move it to either '''Poltergust''' or '''Poltergust G-00'''. - [[User:EndGenuity|EndGenuity]] ([[User talk:EndGenuity|talk]]) 22:03, July 6, 2019 (EDT)

| Since a move just failed, I might as well bump this again and say '''strong support'''. I know the easy argument is that "SmashWiki isn't official", but that is no reason why we shouldn't use the name that Nintendo gives us. We should use the most recent name, regardless of what inconveniences it brings up with it "being too long" or "too specific". There's a reason why the name was changed and our articles should reflect the most recent name. Redirects still exist.

| :Currently the most popular decision is actually to move it to just "Poltergust", which is why the attempted move was invalid. Incidentally I think moving it to just Poltergust is probably the better option.

| ::What good will giving it a generic name do? In fact, we tend to avoid generic names - why else would Mega Lucario and Mega Charizard X be different pages?

| '''Poltergust G00''' simply because we've done the same to other renamed-but-functionally-identical Final Smashes. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Glow 22:05, July 11, 2019 (EDT)

| '''Poltergust''' works the best, as it's very likely that in the case of a Smash sequel, it'll be renamed to the newest version of the Poltergust. This will save us time in the long run.

| :The name "Poltergust" shouldn't ride on a Smash sequel, but a Luigi's Mansion sequel, which, given the franchise's spread out history, I doubt is likely any reasonable time soon.

| ::Even if a sequel isn't too soon, there is still precedent for the Poltergust's name being changed in each successive installment, so I feel like just going with "Poltergust" and having it apply to every version would work just as well. (For this page, that would entail bringing in the ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' trophies of the Poltergust 3000, too.) ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 16:20, September 19, 2019 (EDT)

| Has this reached a conclusion?

| Since this ended in a 6:7 Poltergust vs. Poltergust G-00 which hardly feels like a consensus, I want to reopen it to discuss moving to just "Poltergust". This name would most accurately cover both variations of the Final Smash and is also in line with what basically everyone calls it, which is the preferred title since SmashWiki is not official. No one specifies which version of the Poltergust Luigi is using, especially since they're completely identical moves (barring the addition of Luigi's grab, which is irrelevant to the page title as we determined in moving it to begin with).

|
| |
| The only arguments I see in opposition of just "Poltergust" are "Poltergust is the generic name of the line of vacuums" (...is this even an opposition or just a statement of a fact?), "Luigi also uses the Poltergust G-00 as part of his grab in Ultimate" (already addressed and would have prevented a move to Poltergust G-00 too), "we should use the most recent name, regardless of what inconveniences it brings up" (literally the point of "SmashWiki is not official" is to prevent this exact mentality), "we've done the same to other renamed-but-functionally-identical Final Smashes" (considering Power Star/Grand Star and Fire Bow/Fire Arrow have no such "compromise" and are also still in line with what the community uses, the only actual comparison is "Ganon, The Demon King", which frankly is a bad name as well and also deserves reopening the discussion -- but bottom line is, "this is how we've always done it" is never an argument), and "Poltergust G-00 is the best option" (not an argument). None of these arguments strike me as particularly strong logic to go against the norm of "name the page after what the community generally calls it", which in this case comes with the secondary benefit of matching both names.

| :In my opinion, it is a very bad idea to move this page to just Poltergust. This wiki should always adhere to the most recent names of moves in my opinion, and this page is no exception. [[Special:Contributions/72.219.72.215|72.219.72.215]] 23:50, September 23, 2020 (EDT)
