:<s>Question on the former mains? If that doesn't go in the infobox where do you want it, the main paragraphs? The wiki documents smash history, so if they used to main a character, especially if they were good with the character I would think we would want that infomeation. As an aside, I feel like COVID has made things more complicated with mains. I've noticed players declaring new mains but that haven't actually used them in tournaments yet (as many players don't regularly play online). So I personally don't feel comfortable switching the mains until they've used them in a decent sized tourney. (Ignore the last comment I somehow managed to skip reading that paragraph)</s> [[User:Wiifitkid|Wiifitkid]] ([[User talk:Wiifitkid|talk]]) 09:55, February 23, 2021 (EST)

::You've struck your comment through, but on the topic of former mains, I've mentioned in the discord that if enough people really do want that information somewhere in the infobox, then it would be better to make a new "Retired and past significant characters" entry or something of that sort, rather than throwing them all into the "other characters" entries. I'm not convinced it's necessary and it could still bloat up the infoboxes, but if enough people want it, I may be willing to compromise on that. <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 ]] 15:20, February 23, 2021 (EST)

This also reminds me. What's your opinion on adding secondaries that are ranked alongside a player on a PR. Something like Sparg0's Sephiroth on WWR v7.
