Do you think we should include the fact that Waluigi is playable in the mod [[Brawl-]]?[[User:Rimigafob|Rimigafob]] ([[User talk:Rimigafob|talk]]) 12:56, 9 May 2017 (EDT)

:No. We keep info on characters from the fanmade mods off of the actual character articles.

== @ the IP who removed the trivia point ==
Continuing my edit summary, [https://twitter.com/bobthehoboiscoo/status/1009584254945320960 this] is a collection of screenshots of a user making numerous requests to the point of harassment, and [https://twitter.com/superbluey2749/status/1008886651379179520 this] is proof that Sakurai blocked them on Twitter. I hope that this cements why it should stay further.

You have a very solid point, and I agree I'm wrong, though might I request you put those links in place of the ones currently there? The link provided presents no proof and is just a forum post. I feel having actual screenshots would be more appropriate. - The IP who removed it. 12:41, 25 July 2018 (CDT)
== I'll stop ==
I've been putting in my best effort to try to downtone this. What seems to be shown as a bunch of people is really just a few kids on Twitter harassing Sakurai. As much as I love Waluigi, since before I could even spell his name, and having the face of our fanbase being the worst part of it pains me. I've realized despite my efforts, I'm being more of a nuisance. I apologize for any trouble I've caused. - A sorry IP 3:22, 25 July 2018 (CDT)
== Semi-protect Waluigi ==
Okay, I have had it. I'm getting sick and tired of seeing constant rubbish being added to the page by unknown users and vandals. '''Semi-protecting''' the page would prevent that and only allow professionals to edit in or take out information.

:'''Support''', he's basically a meme at this point, so I'd say semi-protection is imperative. ''[[User:Trainer Alex|<span style="color: blue;">'''Alex'''</span>]] the [[User talk:Trainer Alex|<span style="color: red;">'''Jigglypuff trainer'''</span>]]'' 15:53, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
::I mean... there's only been the one edit war (which was peacefully resolved, as seen above) and one vandalism strike, so I think you're overblowing the "constant rubbish" a bit.
::That said, it does seem like a pretty likely target for continued vandalism even if we haven't seen it yet, so I '''support'''. [[User:TheNuttyOne|TheNuttyOne]] 15:55, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
:::I see no reason to semi-protect at the current moment. Nothing I've seen on the page seems too out of place. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''the College-Bound Rurouni'''</span>]] 16:17, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
:::That's only as of this very moment. I mean like stuff that happened in the past, plus like what NuttyOne said, it's a constant target for vandalism. It'll only get worse if the page isn't semi-protected.

'''I will not be semi-protecting this article''' not unless it gets ridiculous. For right now, the one minor thing we just got is the only offense on this page in this month. Deal with it. <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]]&nbsp;[[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 16:59, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
== Waluigi trivia point ==
I don't care one way or the other, but quit edit warring. <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]]&nbsp;[[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 16:48, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
:Yes, it wasn't all fans. But it wasn't just "some" fans either. [https://twitter.com/hashtag/JusticeForWaluigi?src=hash #JusticeForWaluigi] is a big trend on Twitter, whether it's meant to be serious or not, but {{rollover|there are fans who are legitimately pissed off and will not stop whining.|Not calling anyone out here; you can wish for Waluigi if you want, but please be respectable about it.|y}} And think about how big the Smash fanbase is: there's millions of people worldwide who play this game, competitively or not, and a good chunk of those fans want Waluigi in.
:And @Nutta: if you want the wording to sound less like we're singling out people, then "some" is the opposite of what you want to say.

::The definition of some is "an unspecified amount or number of". Theoretically, "some" ''could'' be "all". It is vague enough that a Waluigi fan won't feel accused, but everyone gets the idea that there are multiple culprits.
::Also, it's not that I don't want to single people out -- I'd actually ''rather'' single people out than to accuse a huge group of people who are not all responsible. I'd be fine with a list of every single Twitter user who participated in this; but that's unreasonable, so "some" accomplishes a similar goal. [[User:TheNuttyOne|TheNuttyOne]] 18:26, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
::Yes, some is an important distinction, as otherwise the trivia point comes across as a generalization. Saying "men commit crimes" is a far greater generalization than "some men commit crimes" for instance. It's important that we don't imply that all Smash Bros and Waluigi fans (or at least, the majority of them) are like this.

== Don't say "Most" as it is infact "Some" ==
Here is the definition of Harassment. "Agressive pressure or indimidation". It's not harassing Sakurai by making jokes. Personally as a fellow IP address Waluigi is falsely identified and many have apologized over and over again, even if they didn't do anything. The Waluigi fanbase shouldn't be identified by these 2 people, which is the main people who are getting brought up when Waluigi harassment is talked about. The amount of people harassing Sakurai, is by definition, "Some". Most of the fanbase wouldn't ping Sakurai daily and if they talk about Waluigi it comes out of deep sincerity or just because they want to have a joke. It shouldn't be illegal to love your favorite character just because 2 children decided to be disrespectful to Sakurai. By saying "Most" you're shining a bad light on the Waluigi fandom. <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:99.14.29.75|99.14.29.75]] ([[User talk:99.14.29.75|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/99.14.29.75|contribs]]) 17:27, 28 July 2018 (EDT)</small>

== Added a bunch of stuff ==
Yeah I pretty much added a lot of stuff to this article because I felt it was kinda "unfinished". Tell me what I should add/do better if you want.

==Notable request==
:I wonder if the requests of other characters should be noted like Waluigi. I mean, is [[Geno]]’s notable?

::First off: Only indent your comments when replying to someone.
::Second: That trivia about about Geno being a highly requested character stems from a poll that was featured on the official Japanese ''Smash 64'' site, hence why it's there.
