#'''Oppose''': This is frankly a terrible idea, characters are naturally played to vastly varying degrees and it's not the wiki's responsibility to try putting up a facade that we have just as many Isabelle players as we do Joker players. Cookies is additionally right that trying to force a minimum in each character category will just lead to people adding the category to players that just touched the character a few times (which is already a problem we're in the process of fixing) and to creating articles of marginal players that aren't noteworthy. If there aren't a whole lot of people noteworthy for playing those "underrepresented characters", then that's just the cold hard facts and we have to report it as it is. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 19:43, March 30, 2021 (EDT)

#'''Oppose'''. The last thing we want to do is to start enforcing quotas. ''[[User:Alex the weeb|<span style="color: blue;">'''Alex'''</span>]] the [[User talk:Alex the weeb|<span style="color: red;">'''Weeb'''</span>]]'' 19:46, March 30, 2021 (EDT)

#'''Oppose'''. It's normal for {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} to have less players than {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} (Just an example). Worse characters won't have the same player base as good characters and trying too hard to pad out their notable players section will just make that section lose any semblance of credibility it has.
