There are many non playable characters in Smash, such as Assist Trophies, stage hazards, Mii Costumes, characters assisting in a Final Smash, for these we use the [[:Template:Infobox Character General]]. For a few, like bosses, enemies and Poké Ball Pokémon, we use different templates, like [[:Template:Boss]], [[:Template:Infobox Enemy]] and [[:Template:Pokémon]]. Although these characters are no less important than the others, their infoboxes contain less information for whatever reason (I assume as a carryover from when most of them were Smash originals). | There are many non playable characters in Smash, such as Assist Trophies, stage hazards, Mii Costumes, characters assisting in a Final Smash, for these we use the [[:Template:Infobox Character General]].

Overall I support the concept, but would it perhaps be better, at least for the bosses which lean more towards being specific characters rather than generic enemy species, to simply switch them to the standard Infobox Character General and ditch the boss infobox altogether?

:The boss infobox has two relevant parameters (Points worth and location) that warrant it being kept around. It is true that many pages already don't use it because the boss already has another role, but at least in Ridley's case I have seen both infoboxes being used, with the boss infobox being in the body of the article instead of at the start. --[[User:Rdrfc|Rdrfc]] ([[User talk:Rdrfc|talk]]) 17:12, April 9, 2021 (EDT) | |||
