| I was working on the wording for some of the stages in ''Super Smash Bros.'' section, but the more I look at the page, the more I see a need to completely redo it. The writing is very amateurish and wordy, the organization is poor, and the formatting is sloppy. This is too big of a job to take on myself; I don't even know where to begin. We could make this page a lot more concise but I'd like to get some ideas as to how. | | I was working on the wording for some of the stages in ''Super Smash Bros.'' section, but the more I look at the page, the more I see a need to completely redo it.

| The biggest problem for this page is redundancy; we already have a [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|whole page]] for a description and history of the series, so the Franchise Description section should be vastly cut down with any relevant info being put on that page instead if it's not already there. This page should be more about the "[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OriginalGeneration original generation]" elements, as in the stuff that's specific to Smash Bros. itself like characters and locations only seen within the series. That, and I'm thinking we should organize the page sections in a way other than by game; there's no need to list some of this stuff four times in a row just to note the minor differences between games. | | The biggest problem for this page is redundancy; we already have a [[Super Smash Bros.

| :I wrote the franchise description to this page, and while I obviously don't own this content (which means I wouldn't really have the right to object to any official decision on the site to restructure the franchise description the way you say), I'd like to express how I would justify the current franchise description's content right now. Each of the other universe articles' franchise descriptions are intended to be historical and modern descriptions of each series tailored specifically for Smash Bros. players who don't know much about what that series is about (despite having probably played around with its representative content in Smash games itself). Right now, every character-based universe has that kind of overall layman's description, and since this Smash Bros. universe article is part of the same collection of articles, it only felt right to give it the exact same kind of franchise description - a summarized description for new players/people outside the series or video games in general without presenting too much about its in-game technicalities.

| :I would think that that other page about the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)]] would be the better page to consider a restructure of its franchise-describing content for, though it seems like it already does do some of what I would suggest for that - putting in more technical, Smash player-oriented information like the first game's exclusive occurrence of the Board the Platform mode, Melee's introduction of All-Star and Tournament modes, the exact number of stages and trophies in each game, Brawl's controller compatibilities, and a more in-depth description of the types and workings of [[items]]. Perhaps the Smash (series) article can be focused on as the "technical history" of the series whereas the universe article here serves as the "layman's history" like it does right now, and some redundancy between these pages could be passable in this case because the pages are essentially for "different audiences" now.

| :Of course, all the rest of the content on this page should have a more layman-oriented rewrite to match the layman-oriented franchise description above it, like the completed [[Donkey Kong (universe)]] page...

|
| |
| We need a Mii-char pic! (like all the other fighters have on their own universe-page!)

| == Would the Demo itself count as "Latest Installment"? ==

| :A demo isn't a game of its own, and SSB3DS comes out in 50 hours or so. Don't bother.

| == Mii Classes as seperate characters ==
| |
| since the Brawler, Gunner and Swordfighter are different characters in terms of gameplay, shouldn't they have pictures as well?
| |
| Kinda like Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard in Brawl. They were one slot but three different characters gameplay wise, slots doesn't really matter towards characters in Smash Bros. It's the gameplay that makes a character.

| I agree. If the list of 3DS Character icons have all three of them separately, then the Wii U Character Icons should have the Mii Swordfighter and Gunner.

| == Why is the Motion-Sensor Bomb not mentioned in the sections for Brawl to Ultimate. ==

| Seems weird that it’s missing when the item became an original item in later games?
