'''Oppose'''. In my opinion it's much easier typing out any other ''Smash'' title than "''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS" or "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''". The shortcuts are also especially helpful for Smasher and tournament articles.

::'''Oppose''' - The reason Smash 4 has these shortcuts while Smash 64, Melee, Brawl and Ultimate don't is because Smash 4 is split into different versions, one on the Wii U and one on the 3DS.

Deletion[edit]
Can't add the template myself because the page is protected, but I say we should delete this and {{forwiiu}}. We don't have these for any other Smash game, so why should these be any different? I know they're already used on some pages, but we could just replace the template with the text on those pages. Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer (talk) 14:50, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
- It's a useful shortcut, which is a completely typical and acceptable reason to use a template. Miles (talk) 14:59, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
- By that logic, shouldn't we have shortcut templates for the other games too? Or do these get a pass because their names are longer? Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer (talk) 15:01, April 8, 2021 (EDT)

Oppose. In my opinion it's much easier typing out any other Smash title than "Super Smash Bros. for 3DS" or "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U". The shortcuts are also especially helpful for Smasher and tournament articles. Cookies
