| :::::Another flawed statement. I never used the phrase "Living longer than they should", and yes, a stage that allows a character to live much longer than usual is a reason people ban stages. When all characters are commonly living in excess of 200%, is there not something wrong with the stage for competitive play? When characters are living that long, does it not give a disproportional advantage to those with reliable finishers with high knockback scaling as opposed to those whose finishers rely on high base knockback? While true it's a lesser reason, there are no commonly legal stages that allow characters to survive to extreme percentages so often. As for your second statement, that's just better wording of "over reliance on teching", which was already mentioned previously. | | :::::Another flawed statement.

| I noticed we got a little off topic. This isn't the place to argue if something is a valid ban reason or not, but if something is or is not a reason people bring up for banning the stage. So, if trying to get a ban reason listed off, bring up how that isn't a reason people in the community ban the stage (and presenting evidence is ideal as well). <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 09:40, 7 January 2011 (EST)

| ::I readded some of the ban reasons you removed. I'll remind you, this isn't about if '''you''' see it as a valid ban reason, it's about if smashers of the '''community''' cite these reasons for banning the stage. Many of the ban reasons you removed I've seen get cited plenty of times in stage discussion. Even if you come up with an irrefutable argument for why a ban reason isn't "valid", if TOs ban that stage for that reason, the reason must be cited here.

| ::As for some general advice when editing, avoid including excessive links. Each time you inputted stalling, you linked it to the stalling article. Generally, if the link already exists in the article, there's no need to repeat the link. Another piece of advice is to avoid inputting unnecessary hyphens. Such as, run-away is run away, un-reasonable is unreasonable, and wall-jump is wall jump.

| :::Okay, responding time.
| |
| :::''"The BBR never released a "ban criteria" and seeing how every region has their own stage list for their own ban reasons, we can't have a section about ban reasons that isn't "subjective"."''
| |
| :::Firstly, while the BBR haven't released a specific ban criteria that they use, several BBR members frequent the Stage Discussion boards on SWF, and have pretty much said that they ban stages they feel marginalize skill (random elements, over-powered hazards and promotion of degenerate tactics).
| |
|
| |
| :::Secondly, while we can't avoid subjectivity in this case, it is quite obvious that one is more subjective than the other. If we list ''possible'' reasons for stages to be banned, then that opens the door to... Anything, really. I could say that I ban Temple at my tournaments because it's boring to play on, for example. Where as if we list actual reasons for banning a stage (based on sources like Sun Tzu's "The Art of War", why other stages are legal/banned, common sense, David Sirlin's articles on competitive gaming, etc...) we will both be avoiding ridiculous edits like the "boring" example I mentioned before, as well as spreading awareness on why stages should be banned to up-and-coming TOs. I can just imagine someone come here and say "Hmm... If Mario Circuit is banned due to the Karts... Then Port Town Aero Dive should automatically be banned too!" without even looking at ACTUAL reasons for banning stages. Given the ignorance that already exists in the community when it comes to stage legality, I'd say we should try and avoid this.

| |
|
| |
| ::::''Firstly, while the BBR haven't released a specific ban criteria that they use, several BBR members frequent the Stage Discussion boards on SWF, and have pretty much said that they ban stages they feel marginalize skill (random elements, over-powered hazards and promotion of degenerate tactics).''
| |
|
| |
| ::::True, BBR members have said that, but they never made it their official stance in a ban guideline, and the ban reasons in this article is not to present what are "valid" reasons for banning the stage, but for presenting commonly cited reasons that TOs ban the stage. So BBR members saying what constitutes a valid ban reason in stage discussion boards has no bearing on the content of this article.
| |
|
| |
| ::::''If we list ''possible'' reasons for stages to be banned, then that opens the door to... Anything, really. I could say that I ban Temple at my tournaments because it's boring to play on, for example.''
| |
|
| |
| ::::As what I meant for "possible" reasons, I mean commonly cited reasons for why a TO may ban the stage. Obviously, we're not going to have something such as "the stage is gay" as a reason listed, nor a reason that is entirely opinionated and lacking any logical sense, like saying a stage is boring. We don't have such reasons listed now, nor have I seen such reasons get added in the past. As such, while I can see why you would be concerned about this, past experience and the fact we can easily undo any edits with such reasons make this something not to get concerned about.

| |
| ::::As mentioned before, when it comes to competitive play, the Wiki reports, not decides. As for the example you brought up about the TOs, it's rather irrelevant. The Wiki doesn't exist to set up a guideline for TOs, and our banned stage article isn't for TOs to base their stage list on. The intention of the article is for giving information on banned stages and the reasons why they are banned for the reader. I'll agree with you on stages getting banned when they shouldn't be (such as Pokemon Stadium 2), but the Wiki is merely presenting the information on this subject, not trying to persuade the reader on what is a valid ban reason and what is not. As such, despite the rather admittedly poor reasoning for banning it, we'll mention Pokemon Stadium 2 in this article, along with the reasons people commonly cite for banning the stage (I know Pokemon Stadium 2 wasn't brought up here, but just bringing up an example).

|
| |
| ::::''No, it really isn't a reason. The game doesn't suddenly lose any competitive depth when characters are living to high percents.''
| |
|
| |
| ::::I already mentioned previously that this isn't the place to argue if something is a valid ban reason, but besides that, you basically just said "no, you're wrong", without properly addressing my points nor bringing up any specific points to back up your reasoning :/ But I'm not going to get hypocritical about this and argue it back.
| |
|
| |
| ::::Now I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess you're Budget Player Cadet (judging by the tone of your posts). While your heart is in the right place, and I know you're passionate about this, you're arguing stage legality in the wrong place. The Wiki intends to remain as neutral as it can, and if TOs see something as a ban reason for the stage, we have to report it in our ban reasons section, even if members of this community don't see it as a valid reason. The Wiki is a presenter of information, and mentioning how a stage is banned for being "overly large" or having "damaging stage hazards" is factual, as whether you think they're valid reasons or not, people ban stages for these reasons.
| |
|
| |
| ::::For a concluding statement on what the ban reasons section is for and what the article's intent is (even though I repeated this so many times). The article's overall intent is to inform readers about banned stages and the reasons people ban them. The ban reasons section is to present commonly cited reasons TOs ban the stage, not to present the "right" reasons for banning the stage. As for the intent of the article, basing the information on this is more informative than limiting the ban reasons to those that we see as "right". <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 01:06, 8 January 2011 (EST)

| Hmm... New thought: Just as Semicolon's Treatise on the Existence of Tiers is linked to from the 'Tier List' page, would I be able to write up a page on reasonable reasons to ban a stage (based on logic derived from David Sirlin's philosophies) and link to that from the 'Banned Stages' page?

| == Singles and doubles distinction ==
| |
|
| |
| Because only one stage (Fountain of Dreams) currently makes a distinction between singles and doubles, I'm not sure it's necessary to have distinct columns for each. It might be better just to have a single note for FoD and for the rest of the stages just say whether they are banned.

| == Proposal to rename article to "Stage legality" ==

| i.e. it should be expanded to list all the stages for each game, then state whether each stage is a Starter, Counterpick, or Banned plus the reason why (generally for the latter two).
| |
|
| |
| Reasons include that we're pretty much already doing this for all of Smash 4, as well as Brawl to an extent, and that the list of banned stages is usually so large that simply adding the list of starters and counterpicks barely requires any effort while significantly expanding the scope of the article.

| Hi, i new here and I have the same problem, stages like green greens, Wario ware, and Unova Pokemon league all have distruptive hazards but can simpily be turned off, stages like midgar can just have the varies symbol instead of being banned just like the miiverse stage did in smash 4.

| When several stages are similar (BF and all its clones, FD and Wily Castle and PictoChat 2, Pokémon Stadium 1 and 2), should we just choose to tag one as allowed and ban the other ? Or should we just tag all of them the same, not deciding which one should be the allowed one ? It's kind of weird to just pick one to make it the allowed one.

| : I tried to do something about it by using the idea of "Alternative starter" for all the similar stages. If this solution is good enough for anyone, this point can be removed from the discussion page. [[Special:Contributions/81.254.247.115|81.254.247.115]] 11:48, 21 December 2018 (EST)

| ::Only the one that is allowed in tournament rulesets is allowed in tournament rulesets. Stages that are not allowed in tournament rulesets are banned. Nothing weird about that. The reason for tournament directors for banning "similar stages" is that you can't counterpick a stage that is more or less the same as a stage you already counterpicked.

| :::Won't that vary from one tournament from another ? The point of the page is to have kind of a common ground, otherwise, it will end up being a page with a different list for each event, won't it ? Anyway, I'm nowhere near being a competitive player, I was just using the page to make a ruleset for my 1v1 serious matches, and ended up completing it with the what seemed to be the most obvious to me. Now people who know better can finish the job by making small editions (I have no idea what the 4 tildes will do, but I will try right away) [[Special:Contributions/81.254.247.115|81.254.247.115]] 11:39, 21 December 2018 (EST)

| :::I have thought about it a bit since and I think there is a problem here : first, you told me that it's tournament ruleset and that's it, but if so, why some stage have a double status while only one tournament is referenced so far ? WarioWare is Banned/Starter, but the only tournament referenced is Smashadelphia, where WarioWare was a Starter, so where does the Banned part come from ? Also, due to the Stage Hazards Toggle, I think the page will end up having a problem : to keep the list short, tournament list will keep some viable stage out, and sooner or later, the list will probably end up mostly with stage that are either "varies" or "banned", and at this point, it will make the whole list useless (what's the informative value of "varies" ?). Shouldn't the people who work on this wiki start to think about a rule like "If the stage is a starter in at least X % of tournaments, then it's a starter, otherwise if it's a conterpick in at least Y % of the tournaments, then it's a counterpick, overwise it's banned" (and if two similar stages end up being both legal because of such a rule, you can still add a footnote "Those two stage a commonly considered legal but are never both allowed in the same tournament for they are too similar").

| ::::If you look at the recent big tournaments, it looks like the 5 starter and 3 counterpick stages will probably become the standard. [[User:Patzui|Patzui]] ([[User talk:Patzui|talk]]) 11:48, 28 December 2018 (EST)
| |
| :::::OK, I'll let people that are more educated than me on the matter handle it. You'll still have my proposition about how to deal with it if you ever need to. By the way, just another idea, you could also separate "banned" in 2 status if tournaments end up not using the same standard : something like "avoided" (mostly banned but not always) and "banned" (never ever legal in any tournament ever).

| ::::::Is there a reason why similar stages are banned and if so, can we have that explanation on the main page? Is it so they don't get double up in random selections? [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] ([[User talk:Guybrush20X6|talk]]) 09:52, 5 January 2019 (EST)

| == Banned Battlefield/Omega Forms ==
| |
|
| |
| While all BF/FD versions of stages are the same on a functional level, there will be a few that get banned for visual and readability problems. Fountain of Dreams has reflections on all forms so that's gonna cause framerate issues, especially in doubles and Ice Climbers matches. Should we have a list of stages banned in all forms too?

| |
| :No, There's no framerate issue for that stage, even on Double. [[User:Trimint123|Trimint123]] ([[User talk:Trimint123|talk]]) 14:05, 10 January 2019 (WIB)

| == "Banned/Starter/Counterpick" ==
| |
|
| |
| I noticed that two stages in Ultimate have something along the lines of "Banned/Counterpick/Starter" as their legality status. (Specifically, WarioWare, Inc. and Lylat Cruise.) Shouldn't the legality status be "Varies" or do I not know how tournament picks work? [[User:CardboardLuigi|CardboardLuigi]] ([[User talk:CardboardLuigi|talk]]) 15:07, 11 January 2019 (EST)
| |
| :Maybe "Varies" that's used for [[Battlefield Forms]] and [[Ω forms]] is the wrong word and should be changed to "Alternative" or something like that. And for these two stages, if there are no tournaments where they where Counterpicks, "/Counterpick" should be removed otherwise they should get linked.

| == No Hazards' own Stage Legality ==
| |
| I was thinking if no hazard may need it's own legally slot so that it's easy to tell which one is required hazard off to be legal and add a reason of why it's legal or not if hazards turn off. [[User:Trimint123|Trimint123]] ([[User talk:Trimint123|talk]]) 13:04, 10 January 2019 (WIB)

| == Temporary semi-protection ==
| |
| This page might need temporary semi-protection. Too many bad edits of people who don't understand what "stage legality" means.. That it is based on rulesets of competitive tournaments and not by what they consider to be "playable stages"... Don't like reverting it every few days..

| ==What if Smash 6 existed?==
| |
| If Smash 6 existed, all stages aside from Battlefield are all banned.
