Do you agree we should start giving blocks to users who ignored being asked to contribute to other areas of the Wiki other than the Smash Arena and their userpage? I noticed some users aren't getting the message, and I'm thinking of handing a two week block to the violators (thus preventing them from voting on a round of Smash Arena). Then, if they continue to not try contributing elsewhere and just keep only editing the Smash Arena/their userpage, give them subsequent blocks of increasing length. <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 ]] 18:28, 13 August 2011 (EDT)

:Blocking people for not doing anything outside Smash Arena I think is too much. Yes, it's not the focus of the wiki, but maybe the user in question is only interested in reading the wiki/using it as a resource, and in such cases you can't make them contribute.
:Those that only edit their userspace are a bit different though in my opinion, since unlike SA, it requires about as much effort as helping out the wiki would. In such cases I think protection of the user pages would be better than a block, so they could then edit constructively while still being punished.
