Skill levels[edit]

Hi, before upgrading any player's skill level to "top level", you should discuss it and get consensus from other users first, whether on the relevant article's talk page or on our discord server. Additionally, before messing with any other player's listed skill level, you should read our our infobox parameter guidelines for how we generally utilize them. Specifically for top level:

"A competitive smasher that is among the best of the best. Anything below a major will typically be easy pickings for them, they carry incredible winrates even if they only attend majors, and are legitimate threats to win a major, as well as place top 8 at a supermajor. These players will make up the upper echelons of global power rankings."

Jahzz0 clearly does not resemble this definition at this time, and much more strongly fits into our definition for "upper high":

"A competitive smasher that is extraordinarily competent at the game, but falls short of being truly top level. Locals are essentially free money for them, they dominate at the regional level, and will often make it into the top 64 of majors. They can also realistically win against top level players, but they will more frequently lose, and will rarely make it into the top 8 of a major, while almost never doing so at a supermajor. These players will be at the top end of regional power rankings, and will make up the low to middle rungs of global power rankings."

For one more thing, if the defense for upgrading a player's skill level is "but this other player they're better than is rated top level", keep in mind we very recently changed our skill level terminology and started addressing how grossly diluted "top professional"/"top level" was on the wiki, there are still tons of players from all games that are currently listed as "top level" who haven't been reviewed and accordingly downgraded yet.
