Re #1: I'll address it (in part) with a link to [[User talk:Charitwo#Gonko]] and [[SmashWiki:Pool Room#Extension requests]]. That they are of little use to casual gamers is of little doubt; however, they ''do'' have merit to SmashWiki'rs as KK said. As I said at #extension requests, I also don't think the majority of the names need to be in the main space; I would be satisfied with redirects out of the main space and into the user space. Randall argues that we shouldn't be the ones to assert notability, as none but Ken and a handful of others have had their names tossed around outside of the Smash World Forums community, whilst many of them ''are'' notable within said community. As that's the community which has worked on SmashWiki and not ssb-wikia... I would not disagree with the creation of a Smasher namespace, but having redirects might still be a good thing. As to [[:category:Crews|Crews]], I don't know. | Re #1: I'll address it (in part) with a link to [[User talk:Charitwo#Gonko]] and [[SmashWiki:Pool Room#Extension requests]].

Re #2: For the moves of characters, we have one too, which is somewhere in [[:Category:Template namespace templates]], it's just that it ended up being substed onto each characters specific | Re #2: For the moves of characters, we have one too, which is somewhere in [[:Category:Template namespace templates]], it's just that it ended up being substed onto each characters specific template. | ||
<nowiki>#</nowiki>2a: I've been working on consolidating "universe" templates. For example, I merged T:SSBF-Zero, T:SSBBF-Zero, and T:SSBMF-Zero into one template, [[Template:F-Zero]], while also converting colors, the "|" character to the bullet character, and now that I can, my plans are to use [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] and [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] table classes "collapsible autocollapse" to shrink the templates like wikipedia does, and so we can have one all-inclusive template. | <nowiki>#</nowiki>2a: I've been working on consolidating "universe" templates.

Atm, T:F-Zero uses T:Navbox, like wikipedia, but it's a hackjob, as I need to poke TOR into changing a setting server-side. I would advise not using it for the moment. | ||
