Bumping this by bringing up how a lot of the fair use files could be changed to use the <nowiki>{{license-screenshot}}</nowiki> template. After all, the template states, "a screenshot or other piece of media from a copyrighted video game." Wouldn't this include a vast number of these; and could this mass edit be considered a "project"?

:::We really should get going on the Hitbox project. Maybe something to improve screenshot quality as well?

== New project idea: Good articles category == | |||
I suggest a new tag, similar to the Featured category, which would be assigned to articles of high and well written quality that are good examples of an article. A featured article would be the best of the best of the wiki, but a good page would be an example to start at if/when a new editor is beginning to edit or create a new article. | |||

:First, this is not the place to propose things, we have a [[Forum:Proposals|proposal forum for that]]. Secondly, "good articles" is something that works for Wikipedia, when it has millions of articles and so will only ever be able to daily feature a fraction of the "good articles". But for SmashWiki, that has a fraction of the articles that Wikipedia has, and a fraction of that fraction that I think are comprehensively complete articles with no glaring errors? That's a hard pass. Not to mention that [[SmashWiki:Featured content|featured content]] has been largely neglected by the userbase as is even after my attempted revival of it last year (while before that, the wiki didn't have a new featured article ''for years''), and that many of the featured articles in the past aren't the wiki's "best of the best" content nor would even deserve a "good article" label (e.g. [[Ganondorf (SSBB)]] had no business being featured and was only done so by an old admin to spite me and another user for our reworking of the [[priority]] article that he didn't like becoming the most supported article for being featured), so adding another layer to the feature system at this time is an absolute no go. <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> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 17:45, April 13, 2024 (EDT) | |||
