:I THINK I have a resolution, atleast to the templates. I know we who come from SmashWiki loves templates, yea... But once, I created templates for each series, one for each Smash game. I had everything in it. Characters, moves, stage locations, stages, items, Poké Ball-Pokémon, Assist Trophies, trophies, stickers and background characters. Yea... but then the moves, Poké Ball-Pokémon, trophies, stickers and background characters disappeard. A little bit later, the three (about each game) started to merg into one, and other ones was created about the special moves. If we could continue to merge the three templates (about each game) into one, and include the Poké Ball-Pokémon aswell as the moves, it would save us, like, hundreds of unnecesary templates. | :I THINK I have a resolution, atleast to the templates.

:BTW, could you delete the articles about stages in SmashWiki.Merge/? All information is now written on the 'real' ones, and that would ALSO save us many bites.[[User:King M|King M]] 20:34, 1 March 2008 (UTC){{user|King M}} March, 1 2008 21:32 (GMT +01) | ::BTW, could you delete the articles about stages in SmashWiki.Merge/?

: Smasher articles are a touchy subject. I've been of the opinion that there were probably too many on SmashWiki, but that's not to say it would be fair or proper to remove all of them (and I'm sure some would disagree with my opinion anyway). I think even Wikipedia has an article or two about some important Smash Bros. players, so it would seem very improper if we were to simply remove all articles about people. It's important to remember that, while user pages are indeed about people, they're really better suited when they're kept to being about people in terms of their wiki usage, and not also about why they might be important to the Smash Bros. community (which should most certainly be within the scope of this wiki). That's not to say we can't tell people who truly don't need a Smasher page of their own that they can't just post it on their user page instead, but that can't be a hard and fast rule either. --[[User:Kirby King|<font color="red"><b><i>Kirby King</i></b></font>]] 21:08, 1 March 2008 (UTC) | :::::Smasher articles are a touchy subject.

For Smasher articles, we should only keep the notable ones IMO, like [[Ken Hoang]]. For the templates, it's kinda nice to have each character's special moves in their own template so that you don't see a massive template with a whole bunch of moves on a bunch of pages. The Main Page '''really''' should be changed; it's too ugly IMO. As for #4, I agree about the logo, that we need to vote on it, though there are two logos now: [[:Image:Wiki.png|the Monobook logo]] and [[:Image:Wiki wide.png|the Monaco/Quartz logo]].--[[User:Richard1990|Richard]] 21:34, 1 March 2008 (UTC) | |||
