:Unfortunately yes, because not every character a player claims they will play or did play belongs in the infobox immediately, or else we'd get issues [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Smasher:Zomba&oldid=1486614 like] [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Smasher:Rizeasu&oldid=1368624 these] [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Smasher:Stroder_Ame&oldid=1506973 monstrosities]. The latter two especially were known for their extensive character rosters, but that doesn't mean every character they played or they said they played belongs in the infobox, especially if there really wasn't much of an impact to their overall career (and for the record, I'm pretty sure Zomba himself added all those characters in). There have been many cases where players would say they would play a character but then don't, or at least don't initially, because a player's character roster often changes pretty quickly. Remember when Tweek played Ridley or Banjo? Or when, right after Glitch 8, he said his mains were Wario, Roy, and Wolf, only to then basically drop Roy and return to PT within a month? Usually for Ultimate, a rule of thumb for "noteworthiness" is if a player used a character regularly and successfully in tournament for around a month, and not just against a single player. So for example, we never added Sora to Maister or Dabuz because both players used Sora for only a couple of events, and ultimately lost the set they used Sora in. Currently, Sparg0 has only used Roy against Sonix twice offline and a few other non-top players online, which doesn't really meet our rule of thumb, and since we don't know how long Sparg0 would use Roy as a Sonix/Sonic counterpick in the forseeable future, we shouldn't just rush it and add Roy to Sparg0 just in case the character is dropped within a month or so.

:In addition, not all characters in infoboxes can stay or become relegated to "retired characters". For example Corrin, which I kind of brushed over. We originally did have Corrin in the infobox because Sparg0 did use him a good amount at smaller offline events, against Sonic players, and even online. However since then Sparg0 has, at least for the time being, dropped Corrin. Since Sparg0's Corrin didn't really have much impact on the metagame or his career (he has had far more success with Cloud and Aegis than Corrin), Corrin was removed from the infobox.

== Incomplete tournament history? ==
I’ve noticed that there isn’t anything explaining his performances and the throne 2 and DPOTG 2024, just pointing this out because they seem like key points in his journey to number 1 [[Special:Contributions/75.226.146.228|75.226.146.228]] 01:05, December 27, 2024 (EST)
:I'm waiting for the rankings to release before adding the rest of the LumiRank 2024.2 season. I usually do this so that it's easier to write things with the whole season in mind, rather than just write about an individual event which can lead to it becoming a real-time report.
