Smasher talk:ZeRo

This page seems to get vandalized a lot. Do you think we should protect it for the sake of preventing that? Wikipedia does stuff like that, but I don't think I've ever seen a page on this wiki get protection for any reason other than being about an unreleased game. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 12:37, 8 January 2015 (EST)

question is, who's vandalizing it? (Smashworker101 (talk) 12:42, 8 January 2015 (EST))

Well I doubt it's always the same person (being that they always get banned), but it seems to occur at least once a month where either the entire page is replaced with nonesense or a bunch of nonsense is added to the page. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 12:43, 8 January 2015 (EST)

Whoever it is, they really hate this guy. But I think its the same guy, just with different IPs. You know, like sockpuppetry (Smashworker101 (talk) 12:49, 8 January 2015 (EST))

I don't think the vandalism of this page is chronic enough to warrant semi-protection as of this time. Toomai Glittershine The Pan-Galactic 13:10, 8 January 2015 (EST)

Then what type of vandalism suppose to be chronic enough? (Smashworker101 (talk) 13:25, 8 January 2015 (EST))

It's not something that can be determined easily; there's a lot of factors that can go into it. One very loose rule of thumb could be "if more recent edits are spent fixing the page rather than improving the page". Toomai Glittershine The Rainbow 13:31, 8 January 2015 (EST)

That does explain how it floods the recent changes though (Smashworker101 (talk) 13:52, 8 January 2015 (EST))

Wait a minute...

On their respective Smasher pages, it states Seagull Joe and Vinnie are the only players to have defeated ZeRo so far. However, ZeRo got 3rd at Sky's Smash 4 Invitational, so someone else must've beaten him. So... Aidan, Master of Speed and Aura 12:16, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

They both say "in 2015". I think we basically consider 2014 to not count because it was too early. Zyrac (talk) 12:20, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

Well, yea, but the point still stands. Aidan, Master of Speed and Aura 12:24, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

To make a slight correction, it's also mentioned on Mr. ConCon's page that he beat ZeRo. On the subject of Sky's Invitational, by general consensus, most people typically don't include it for 3 reasons:

1. ZeRo was a Fox main at the time rather than a Diddy/Sheik main (he did have Sheik as a secondary at the time, though).

2. It was, essentially, a "Day 1 tournament", happening on the exact weekend that Smash Wii U was released.

3. The tournament happened way before his streak began (unless you count the pre-release Invitational as well).

Also, Mr. R and ESAM (the two players who actually beat him there) don't count Sky's Invitational against ZeRo's record either, so make of that as you will. It is a bit of a slippery slope, though, so maybe the wording could be slightly changed a bit. PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 13:08, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

The fact that the trivia point includes the time frame "in 2015" makes me think it doesn't necessarily have to be reworded, I just thought that I'd point out what I noticed. Aidan, Master of Speed and Aura 19:55, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

1. Why is "Chillan" listed as Zero's location if he lives in SoCal?
2. Why does he have the flag of Chile next to his name also if he in SoCal? That's like putting the flag of Argentina for HBox or putting the flag of China next to PewPewU's name (he was born in China if I'm not mistaken). Chilex (talk) 17:01, 29 March 2016 (EDT)

Because he passed most of his life in Chile. We could always mention he lives in SoCal though. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 17:03, 29 March 2016 (EDT)

Also, I feel like this assumes that he has not gained U.S citizenship yet and still retains Chilean citizenship since its his origin place despite his work being more known in the US. Dots (talk) The Saxaphone 19:50, 29 March 2016 (EDT)
