== A question about the rename policy ==

Hi, I know this might be a dumb question, but I thought I might ask anyway.

So I want my username to be changed to '''The Jacketed Terrapin''' (I only settled on '''JacketedTerrapin''' cuz I was trying to find a way to keep "of the Turtle Tribe" in my signature while also making it the link to my contributions page, but no matter what, I could never fit it in and I decided to entirely drop the "of the Turtle Tribe" moniker), but I'm wondering if usernames with minor alterations still have to follow the username change policies (wait a few days later to confirm your new name and you can't request another username change for another 6 months). [[File:JacketTerraSig1.png|20px]]'''The [[User:JacketedTerrapin|<span style="color: blue;">Jacketed</span>]] [[User talk:JacketedTerrapin|<span style="color: green;">Terrapin</span>]]'''[[File:JacketTerraSig2.png|20px]] 21:48, July 4, 2021 (EDT)
:The point of the confirmation part of the policy is to prevent sudden cases of "actually, I don't like this name and I want it changed back", and sort of extends to the 6 month period part, in addition to that being to prevent people from taking up too many usernames. However, I think something minor like this would be a reasonable thing to make an exception for. That being said, in line with the spirit of the policy, I'll ask that you again reconfirm in a few days to make certain you're absolutely sure about the name change.

== The logos you added to my sandbox ==

Hey, I noticed you added your logos for ''Ori'' and ''Celeste'' to my "Third-party universes that should be in ''Smash''" sandbox. While I do appreciate you contributing to the page, I would rather have the file names of the logos match exactly how the others are named (i.e. '''File:Universe Name logo.filetype''') and the images themselves be cropped so there isn't any unnecessary space (do keep in mind the stuff on that page is meant to go on the mainspace should the right time come).

Before doing that, though, I wanna ask you this, since you also have both of these logos on one of your own userpages: Would you be okay if your logos are altered to cater to my page's standards or would you rather have separate files of the logos uploaded instead?

== Spirit Battle discussion ==

Hello, I wanted to talk with you regarding the reverting and excessive bloating of certain pages with spirit battles.

Namely, the reason I break them down the way I do because a lot of that stuff feels so bloated and I wanted the facts to be short and clear to the point.
[[User:Autismo555|Autismo555]] ([[User talk:Autismo555|talk]]) 10:11, January 16, 2022 (EST)
:I do not find it to be excessive bloating. The points, as you write them, are short and abrupt, and do not cover information in a readable way. [[User talk:Autismo555#Re: Spirit Battle inspiration|It seems I'm not the only one who has this opinion about your handling of the inspiration column]], and I'm [[Forum:Spirit battles|certainly not the only one who thought they should be changed]]. The point is to cover information and references made in the spirit battle, it isn't to go point by point. Obviously I won't lobby for a paragraph for each point, and sure, I'll admit that sometimes I can put a lot of information into something when a chunk of it could stand to not be there, but the point of a wiki is to make things easily readable to viewers.

:Let's take some specific points from the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series' spirit battles, as examples. In the Riku spirit battle, the following was present before my edit:
::''Corrin and Riku are both grey-haired swordfighters.''
::''Corrin's blue costume references the costume Riku wears while possessed by Ansem, Seeker of Darkness.''
:Disregarding the falseness of the second point (because that one's on me, I misremembered the chronology of events in Hollow Bastion), these two could easily be put into one single point that combined like information with like information, to form the following:
::''Corrin's grey hair and blue outfit represent Riku, with Corrin's blue costume referencing the costume Riku wears during his first fight in Hollow Bastion.''
:Additionally, moving along to the Axel spirit battle, the following was present before my edit:
::''Roy and Axel are both red-haired characters who use bladed weapons and fire-based attacks.''
::''The stage references the computer room in Twilight Town where Roxas battles Axel in the opening of Kingdom Hearts II.''
::''The stage transitions to the Blazing Chamber layout, referencing how Axel encircled the computer room with fire during his boss battle.''
::''The second battle condition further references Axel's ability to use fire-based attacks.''
::''Roy starting off with a Hothead references Axel's Chakrams, which he can infuse with his pyrokinesis.''
:Again, these points can be made more concise to combine like with like, especially since the last two are more related to the first point, and outright separated from it due to the stage stuff being in the middle. As such, I changed it to the following:
::''Roy and Axel are both red-haired characters who use bladed weapons and fire-based attacks. Roy starting off with a Hothead references Axel's Chakrams, which he can infuse with his pyrokinesis, and the second battle condition further references Axel's ability to use fire-based attacks.''
::''The stage references the computer room in Twilight Town where Roxas battles Axel in the opening of Kingdom Hearts II. The stage transitions to the Blazing Chamber layout, referencing how Axel encircles the computer room with fire during his boss battle.''
:It overall makes it much more readable, and I'd hardly call two complete and fuller sentences "bloat", especially within the context of the spirit battles.

:Finally, truth be told, a lot of the information that I cut out was speculation. [[User talk:Autismo555#This edit (and others following it)|I've told you about this before]], but there was a lot of speculation that felt like way too big a stretch to be saying, especially on a mainspace article. [[SW:SPEC|We have policies in place that disallow for speculation altogether]], so I'm not even sure why they were still put back up there (which [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=List_of_spirits_(Kingdom_Hearts_series)&diff=1629806&oldid=1629791 you yourself reinserted] onto the page). If you want specific examples on speculation that I cut, and why I cut it, see [https://pastebin.com/AvPLW9zB here].

:You are free to make your case, but that is where I stand. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: #FFD700;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: #FFD700;">'''the Celebratory Rurouni'''</span>]] 15:48, January 16, 2022 (EST)
::Here's my case: I stand by using bulleted points to break down each spirit battle because the way you merged some of those points in one makes it feel so clumped up together, like in your edits of the Kingdom Hearts spirit battles, for example. Some of the inspiration points look so clumpy, it's almost hard to look at, which is why I feel compelled to break them down. I want to make those points as clear and concise as I can. If you'd ask me, I would show you what I'd do to break down the battle, but still keep faithful in your personal expectations on the layout of the inspirations columns. If not, then I'd go back to all of the Spirits pages where I listed the inspiration behind the spirit battle, blank out the inspiration columns, and allow you and anyone else to start over from scratch WITHOUT reverting it all.
::[[User:Autismo555|Autismo555]] ([[User talk:Autismo555|talk]]) 12:31, January 20, 2022 (EST)
:::I, again, fail to see how it's all clumped together. Covering the information in a concise way is a good thing to aim for, but separating everything into tiny little points makes it extremely unreadable. The way that I've tackled this is also progressively going through the information for a battle, but, again, combining like with like to make it more readable.

:::If we look at how I have Roxas set up currently:
::::"''Roxas is Sora's Nobody in Kingdom Hearts II. He is able to dual-wield Keyblades, primarily using the combination of Oblivion and Oathkeeper, referenced here by Sora starting off with a Killing Edge.''"
:::This covers why Sora is used in the Roxas spirit battle, and why Sora has an additional weapon equipped alongside his own main weapon. It's much better than the very short and very abrupt "''Sora is the origin of his Nobody, Roxas.''", and the "''Sora starting off with a Killing Edge references how Roxas dual-wields his Oathkeeper & Oblivion Keyblades.''" thrown in at the very end, completely separate from the first point.
::::"''The overall battle represents Sora's battle with Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, where Sora meets with Roxas in The World That Never Was, and is pulled into battle at the Station of Serenity. Initially just a cutscene in Kingdom Hearts II, the scene was expanded upon in Final Mix to turn it into a fully-fledged boss battle.''"
:::This gives not only a bit of context to the entire spirit battle and to what it pays homage, but also (albeit subtly) explains why the stage used was chosen. It covers it in a much more concise way than the two separate points of "''The stage references the Station of Serenity, the location of Roxas' boss battle in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix.''" and "''The stage and music represent Roxas' Dive to the Heart station in Kingdom Hearts II.''"
:::The other two points were inserted by you, so I'm not gonna go into them.

:::I can get there being a difference of opinion in how this should be handled, no one's gonna think exactly the same as me and I'm not going to try and make you do that. But [[Forum:Spirit battles|I asked for consensus]], and I got it. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: #FFD700;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: #FFD700;">'''the Celebratory Rurouni'''</span>]] 12:48, January 20, 2022 (EST)
:::: Here's my response.

::::One, I'm wondering if you can get a consensus to change the layout to the previously proposed collapsible spirit battle inspirations, which cuts down the cramped feeling of the Spirits. I would go out and do this myself, but CanvasK is quite adamant about getting the consesus before the change is implemented.

::::Two, I would like you to review my changes and see if some of them are up to your expectations.

== Best base game character ==

I fully understand and agree with removing the trivia mentions for tier list placements such as "best third party" or "worst clone". However, there's one that I think is legitimately useful that I saw you remove from [[Sonic (SSBU)]]: "best base game fighter". I honestly think this one is notable for two reasons: 1. Smash 4 dlc can no longer be bought, so if a player forgot or didn't want to buy Bayonetta they literally can't get her anymore unless they use somebody else's system, and 2. Players would have legitimate reason not to fork over 6 dollars to unlock a character or 25/30 for a pass, rather than simply preference if they were a clone or from a specific series. I would like to double check your opinion on listing the "best base game fighter" in case it also needs to be removed from [[Diddy Kong (SSB4)]], especially since that game is the one where dlc can no longer be bought. [[User:Unnamed anon|Unnamed anon]] ([[User talk:Unnamed anon|talk]]) 13:59, April 6, 2023 (EDT)
:Whether or not a character has been bought by a particular player has little bearing on a character's existence in a game at all. Additionally, tournament setups must have the DLC downloaded in case someone happens to main a DLC character, meaning that, in terms of a tier list, the separation of "base game" and "downloadable" have little separation. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: cyan;">'''Aidan'''</span>]] [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: pink;">'''the Springing Gamer'''</span>]] 15:56, April 6, 2023 (EDT)
::You raise some pretty good points, and I did remove the mention from the Diddy Kong page because of that. However, I'm starting to have second thoughts for that page, since Smash 4 is the game where you literally can't unlock Bayonetta anymore if you didn't already have her. I get that Smash 4's competitive scene is mostly dead, but would it still be worth mentioning the best base game character for games where DLC is literally no longer purchasable? I'll let it stay off of Sonic's page since Ultimate DLC is still purchasable. [[User:Unnamed anon|Unnamed anon]] ([[User talk:Unnamed anon|talk]]) 17:28, April 9, 2023 (EDT)
:::While it may be true that you can no longer (legally) download content for Smash 4, I still think that there's no reason to separate the base roster from the downloadable/complete roster, because again, strictly in terms of the competitive scene (regardless of whether it's alive or dead), the full roster is the only one that counts.

== uh (origin images) ==

I know it currently isn't consistent, but we do have a bunch of characters with origin images in the origin section, and it does seem standard for other things to have an origin image in general, so why remove them?

:If you're referring to characters like Mario, who have artwork of their older appearances (which Smash took their designs from), then yes, those are relevant to Smash because it's a design that has appeared in the game. A simple screenshot from the game they appeared in (especially if it's the ''only'' game they've appeared in) doesn't add much to the wiki, and is highly unnecessary.

== [[Special:Diff/1820674|Simon Belmont in an M-rated game]] ==

Despite what your research might suggest, Simon Belmont (or rather, an alternate universe version of him), ''does'' appear in an M-rated game, specifically in ''Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate'': https://castlevania.fandom.com/wiki/Simon_Belmont_(Lords_of_Shadow)<br>I'll leave it up to you if you wanna count him or not, I just wanted to let you know.

That being said, I wouldn't mind just axing the "appears in an M-rated game/has an M-rated installment" trivia altogether. I just don't find it that interesting, especially when there're other rating boards that exist outside of ESRB (CERO, PEGI, Australian Classification Board, etc.). Yes, we're an English wiki, but that doesn't necessarily mean we should just focus on just one ratings board.

:Even though I personally would not count that, I can definitely agree that the point should be removed altogether. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''Aidan'''</span>]] [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''the Gamer'''</span>]] 13:21, August 7, 2023 (EDT)
