While I am well aware that we have [[Name entry glitch|pages on notable and famous glitches]], I feel like, much like the [[list of rumors]] page, we're forgetting to realize exactly ''what'' should qualify as "notable and famous". As the internet has progressed over the years, the ''Smash'' community too has progressed and grown over the years, making things easier to be spread and, by previous standards, become notable and famous. However, there becomes a certain point where a line should be drawn, because not everything notable and famous deserves a page, since it usually amounts to [[Extended ARM freeze glitch|a]] [[Final Smash Camera Glitch|small]] [[Tether Recovery Glitch|amount]] of information, and, in many cases, once notable glitches [[Z-axis glitch|ultimately]] [[Unlimited Rebellion Gauge glitch|getting]] [[Buster Wolf freeze glitch|patched]] [[Infinite Assist Trophy glitch|out]]. I am under the full belief that minor glitches like these do not need full pages, especially in the era of video games where glitches can become patched out and therefore irrelevant.

While I am well aware that we have pages on notable and famous glitches, I feel like, much like the list of rumors page, we're forgetting to realize exactly what should qualify as "notable and famous". As the internet has progressed over the years, the Smash community too has progressed and grown over the years, making things easier to be spread and, by previous standards, become notable and famous. However, there becomes a certain point where a line should be drawn, because not everything notable and famous deserves a page, since it usually amounts to a small amount of information, and, in many cases, once notable glitches ultimately getting patched out. I am under the full belief that minor glitches like these do not need full pages, especially in the era of video games where glitches can become patched out and therefore irrelevant.

    I do not think the infinite Assist Trophy glitch is deserving of its own page, because, again, with the combination of the increase in size of the community due to Ultimate and the evolutions in social media, what constitutes as "notable" has become very fuzzy. I will also clarify that I am not saying that glitches with little information are not deserving of a mention on the wiki—I very much think a "List of glitches (SSBU)" page would be a good idea—but not everything is deserving of a page.
