→Moving to 'double jump': To repeat your point in an argument does not give leverage; more should be added. Sorry guys. Even though I fully agree with practicality over popularity the argument isn't strong enough. Why should it be a big deal anyway?

On a completely irrelevant note, why does the main article link to the lowercase "jump", but the talk page of the lowercase "jump" redirects to the capitalized "Jump?" The talk page should be moved to the lowercase "jump", or the talk pages should not redirect to each other.

:Yeah that should be fixed (probably once this discussion is over so a double move isn't needed).

<br />Just to throw my thoughts in... I do believe "double jump" is more relatable and easier to say compared to "midair jump", despite being technically wrong for reasons stated above. Don't get me wrong here: midair jump sounds better to me because it is proper (and I am proper as you'll see soon). This case to me is just like how many people use palette swap (or people using recolor as a term for an outfit) for '''altered textures on 3D models of all things.''' I don't approve of that at all and I honestly cringe hearing people use those words interchangeably. Calling an outfit by a specific color like Falco's green outfit/color is not what bothers me; it is people using terminology for 2D graphics for 3D, and oftentimes poorly at that. It is not my place to change such terms used universally on here however, so I don't.<br /> | |||
Back on subject: It's not that big of a deal because a double jump's general definition in video games is the jump in mid-air. We should still be wary of how we use such a term for characters discernibly. Because [[SW:OFFICIAL|Smash Wiki says it is not official]], there is no reason to let this affect our personal vocabulary for the game.
