How do we display the age of deceased smashers ([[KishCubed]], for example)? Showing how old they ''would'' be if they were alive seems quite unreasonable. <sup>Smiddle&nbsp;</sup>[[User:Smiddle|君怒る]][[user talk:Smiddle|?]] 13:01, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Well, currently this template uses {{t|DoB}} to determine an age, so this template would have to give DoB a deathdate. DoB is not currently configured for this, though the calculation template that it uses ({{t|Age}}) does. The main problem is that if we don't know the exact birthdate and exact deathdate (as is the case for KishCubed), it would have to be done manually, which means adding a new row to this template that allows a manual age without declaring the article deprecated.

:Just use the old birthdate parameter... :/ '''''<span style="font-family:Arial;">[[User:PenguinofDeath|<font color="silver">Penguin</font>]][[User talk:PenguinofDeath|<font color="gray">of</font>]][[Special:Contributions/PenguinofDeath|<font color="silver">Death</font>]]</span>''''' 07:29, 3 November 2011 (EDT)
 
==N64==
The N64 was a console, not a video game. We don't call ''Melee'' "GCN", or ''Brawl'' "Wii", cos that would be dumb. Nor do we call them "SSBM GCN" or "SSBB Wii", cos that too would be dumb. Instead, we call them ''SSBM''/''Melee'' and ''SSBB''/''Brawl''. Why can't we just call ''SSB'' "''SSB''"?
