| :::::Even if you argue that only Melee used the shattered disc and that only Ultimate used the three dots, you have to consider the fact that the shattered disc was used for a Smash original stage where the Smash Ball symbol would have been more appropriate, and the three dots in Ultimate were actually used for minor universe stuff. I believe the three dots should replace the Special Stages symbol so that Melee's Battlefield doesn't get mixed in with the minor universes. Battlefield was never an "Other" property.

| == Should the special stages symbol’s section have an explanation of it being our non-Ultimate “other” symbol? ==
| |
|
| |
| Newer users will be confused as to why the special stages symbol is going to be used instead of the ellipsis, as shown from the giant debate over which one to use. So, should there at least be an explanation as to why the “improper” symbol is used on everything except the disimbaguation page (which really should have the same symbol as the pages on that disambiguation, but oh well.)

| ::::::I'm confused. Was this settled anywhere? I just saw a brief discussion on this page with no consensus reached and nobody bothering to do anything aftewards. In any case... surely getting things right matters more than people being annoying about it? Like, I have no idea whether I'm included in the "you" you mention above or not (having made the pro-ellipsis argument here on this page, but not, as I recall, elsewhere), and it's just, like, man, what a way to shut down argument, right? Like, well, gee, now I guess nobody can argue for this because a few of its proponents were annoying? But that has nothing to do with whether the idea is correct or not! You say "this was never a problem until you made it a problem", but we have to clarify what's meant by "problem" here. It was never a point of contention until someone made it a point of contention, sure. But from the point of view of being as correct as possible, it was as soon as the ellipsis symbol came into existence and we weren't using it! (At least, if you agree that the ellipsis symbol would be better, which you don't, I guess, but you get what I mean.) The point is, a problem is the wiki not being as good as possible -- not people getting into arguments about it! What else is a discussion page for, after all? I mean, I'll certainly agree that trying to put this sort of thing in the wiki itself, or dragging it across multiple pages (I'll take your word that this happened), is not good behavior, but, rather than banning the subject, surely it would make more sense to just confine it to one central discussion location (such as here) where it would make sense? And then everyone who doesn't want to argue about this can just stay away. [[User:Sniffnoy|Sniffnoy]] ([[User talk:Sniffnoy|talk]]) 18:56, 17 February 2019 (EST)

| :::::::::It should be safe to restart that discussion in a month or two, due to the amount of new users that will come here. However, currently, anybody who adds to that page will be banned for disruption. I made the point that if the disimbaguation pages for spirits use the ellipsis, then so should the Assist Trophies who have Spirits as well (especially since the ellipsis is only used for Ultimate-related contexts, which Assist Trophies with Spirits fully are), but that was instantly shot down, so just roll with the “consensus” for now.

| == Dragon Quest Symbol ==
| |
|
| |
| People have been adding the Slime symbol, or "The Mark of Erdrick", to all the ''Dragon Quest'' pages. However, the series symbol for The Hero, and therefor ''Dragon Quest'' as a whole, uses a [https://www.smashbros.com/en_US/fighter/72.html completely different symbol]. (Its probably a symbol that represents the main ''Dragon Quest'' hero's game rather than his series as a whole, like with Joker's) Is the Slime symbol only being used as a placeholder?

| == Undertale icon ==
| |
|
| |
| I realized something when I someone pointed it out on Twitter: this official video preview for the Megalovania remix in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFDKcuLxxZg You can see the video here (it's unlisted).] Has this icon been spotted in-game?

| |
| :We've chosen not to put it in since it's not actually in the game, and even if it was, Undertale doesn't have much representation and including the symbol wouldn't be justifiable (since symbols are usually given to major universes).
