No. Just no. This is completely a discrimination of rights. It's been stated numerous times that SBF and SW are not to be linked in events like bans, by mods.

:"Rights?" If you want to get technical, you have no rights here - this is a privately-owned website.

:You're making the assumption that an article deletion is a form of punishment; generally, it's a method of removing inappropriate articles, particularly those that aren't quite up to par with SmashWiki standards. Being a good group of users doesn't award you the right to a Wiki entry if you aren't an actual crew. If this article is deleted, it's nothing personal (speaking strictly for myself, though I'd imagine the same would apply to whomever may delete this); it just makes no sense for this article to remain when other forum alliance articles have been deleted. | |||

:Not to be rude, but that really doesn't matter. Supporting a character does not suddenly make you deserving of a Wiki entry. The moment you guys actually act as a real crew (and start playing in tournaments representing this group), ''then'' you can have an article; at the moment, however, there's no reason at all for you all to have one. And when you consider that several other alliances articles have already been deleted for the same reason I flagged this one, it becomes a matter of applying the rules consistently and equally to everyone.
