Might I suggest including a column to show which Spirits can be obtained via Amiibo? | |||
---Nevermind, I just saw that there is already an Amiibo column, it's just blocked by the ads and there is no scroll bar. | |||

== Properties only relevant to some spirits == | |||
The table on this page is currently dominated by many properties that only apply to a minority of spirits (primary spirits, and occasionally, support spirits). This information is now available on the pages [[primary spirit]] and [[support spirit]] instead. As such, I don't think it's necessary to maintain it on this page, where it only serves to clutter an already large table. [[Special:Diff/1290319|This revision]] shows how much cleaner the page would look with only information applicable to all spirits (or almost all in the case of class). | |||
I had hoped that the benefits of splitting the information off of this page would be fairly obvious, but evidently {{user|Trainer Alex}} opposes this change. As such, I would be interested to hear other people's opinions (especially Alex's) about whether they think the category-specific information should be present on this page. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:47, September 8, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Though I agree some data entries only serve to bloat the table and we are best off redirecting readers looking for Attack/Defense stats and such to the pages you've linked, I feel like a case might be made for keeping some categories omitted in your revision. The distinction of having a spirit battle without being available on the Spirit Board, for instance, is important for clearing up any potential confusion on the availability of Master spirits, while "Series" should be kept for informational indexing purposes.

::I actually added Series and the Spirit Battle columns in [[Special:Diff/1290342|an edit]] after that revision.

:This is useful to sort all the spirits by those stats. For instnace, this page allows players to get an answer to the question ''Which Neutral spirit has the biggest attack stat at maximum level?''

== Bayonetta 1006 and 1007 == | |||
I think 1006 and 1007 might be switched. 1006 is '''Bayonetta (Bayonetta 2)'''. I don't have 1007, so I'm not sure what that one is. [[Special:Contributions/12.203.51.202|12.203.51.202]] 14:25, December 12, 2019 (EST) | |||
:Indeed. Bayo 2 is the default skin and 1006th spirit, while Bayo 1 is the alternate skin and the 1007th spirit. Fixed if. Thank you. [[User:YoshiRyu|YoshiRyu]] ([[User talk:YoshiRyu|talk]]) 14:56, December 12, 2019 (EST) | |||
== Power columns == | |||
I am new to this, so I regrettably didn't think to ask here first before creating the minimum and maximum power columns. I love the existence of this page, but it didn't feel complete without columns which sort by the spirits' power. There wasn't a straightforward way to do this without creating a separate column, so I personally went through and input the min. and max. power for every primary spirit. Feel free to argue against me here, especially considering the fact that I did this without permission, but I feel like this would be a great addition to this already spectacular compendium. The data are taken from the spirit lists by series on this site, and I am currently going through and verifying each entry again (unless another set of eyes would like to do this). Sorting the spirits by their power is useful if one would like to know such information (which is the purpose of this page, is it not?). I'll apologize again for this sudden move, and if any of you of higher authority aren't fond of the addition, I won't be hurt if you restore an earlier version. I would appreciate any kind of feedback nonetheless, and I'll be sure to come here before doing anything major again. | |||

== Removing the center aligns == | |||
Do we really need to have <code>align=center</code> for every cell for the obtaining methods? I did the math and removing them would decrease the page size by over 126k bytes, 25% decrease. The page is already huge (in bytes and size), so I think we should take any optimization that we can. Here is an [https://i.imgur.com/v7WjySm.png image] of the change.--[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User_talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 19:29, April 24, 2020 (EDT) | |||

:It's nicer when centered, but 126kb is a lot. I think nobody will give you any feedback on that proposition because, first, I don't think this page is followed by a lot of people, and secondly, it's hard to argue that "nice" is worth 126kb. At this point, it looks like something that should be rather decided by an administrator. As for me, I can only say that it's nicer when centered, but I can't just decide that it's worth those 126kb.

::I won't disagree that it looks nicer. <s>I feel that it might help with the load times if my understanding is correct.</s> I did some quick testing looking at the "parser profiling data" when doing a preview and I didn't see any significant difference. The page loaded 2 seconds faster... off of 55 seconds so not much (could have been caused by anything and loading the page normally is not 55 seconds). Post-expand size, node count, and everything else was the same, so I imagine when the page is converted to HTML it is smart about it. | |||
::Would be nice to have a solution to make it load faster. <s>Another idea I had was to merge the empty cells vertically instead of horizontally since that could go through more rows without a support/primary breaking the chain. But I haven't checked if that would save bytes or not and I have no way to tell if it would decrease load times.</s> --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 17:42, April 26, 2020 (EDT) | |||

== Unobtainable spirits == | |||
I've been on a quest to obtain all 1512 spirits in the game, and I'm currently at 1487. But, I noticed that spirits 1491 through 1496 have never showed up, despite the wiki saying they appear on the Spirit Board. I still occasionally come across new spirits on the Spirit Board after reshuffling a few times, but the fact that these 6 in a row have never showed up is suspicious. According to this page, they were spirits released to celebrate Mario Golf: Super Rush and No More Heroes, so is it possible that after their release, they were never rereleased? I have the Metroid Dread spirits, and they still pop up long after the event ended, but is that only because I obtained them during the event? In short, there's nothing on the wiki that mentions this, if it is true. [[User:Baba booey1111|Baba booey1111]] ([[User talk:Baba booey1111|talk]]) 15:43, November 18, 2021 (EST) | |||
:Spirits that are part of events get put in the normal rotation after a while, typically 4 months but there's some variation. For example, [[Ready? Wallop!]] was held in February 2020 and its spirits were made available outside of the event in June 2020 (roughly 4 months). Mario Golf: Super Rush and No More Heroes were held at the beginning and end of August 2021, so you can expect to see them reappear in December 2021. If you've gotten a spirit from an event already, then they will continue to show up on the Spirit Board (which is why you see Metroid Dread spirits); it'd be annoying if you get a spirit, dismiss it, then have to wait months to get it again. I believe we do mention stuff like this on the respective event and series pages, but only after they happen. It is somewhat implied by "Any spirits that appear in the Spirit Board but also have a different method of obtaining ... will not appear on the Spirit Board until unlocked by the alternate way", with "alternate way" being the even, though it could be reworded. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 15:59, November 18, 2021 (EST) | |||
