Citation for final smash in SSB

This link is solid proof (it's towards the middle). Can I get rid of the mark now? Cheezperson {talk}stuff 06:01, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Yup, that's good proof. Go ahead and add the citation, then you can take off the tag. Silverdragon706/FyreNWater - (T • C ) 06:24, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Is this a beta element?

In the origional trailer for Brawl, In the background of the vid i could see kirby using hammer in brawl. But, however, it was the ariel hammer from melee, where he spins it vertically spins it, and not the one where he spins horizontally in the current brawl. Could i write this in the article?~Teh BlueThe blue blurBlur~]] 16:11, 24 November 2008 (UTC) (My signature needs fixing by the way.)

It is indeed; it's already on the site but not here. Go ahead and add it. Miles (talk) 16:42, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Yay thanks miles!~Teh BlueBlur~... ~Gimme the emeralds!~ 16:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Beta Melee opening

Note especially the gameplay clips in the middle, before Sheik's portion. (I found it here.) Miles (talk) 17:38, 4 December 2010 (EST)

Beta Dreamland 64

It is much more likely that stage was used for testing, rather than a beta version of Dreamland. It should be removed. 124.171.70.77 02:41, 12 December 2010 (EST)

Beta: anything removed before the release of a game and is found in the programming as well.--MegaTron1XD 09:49, 12 December 2010 (EST)

I have no idea how to add images...

...so could someone take a picture of roughly : 12-:14 of this video? It shows a beta menu that has "?"'s in some of the selections. Thanks. ReiDemon (talk) 22:52, 25 July 2011 (EDT)

I know how to put images in, so this is no longer needed.

Also, I plan on revamping the formatting in this article. Apologies if I clog up the Recent Changes because of this. ReiDemon 13:38, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Some of these images...

..have watermarks. We need to fix this. Blindcolours ZoOm! 17:59, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

I can't seem to locate a beta Melee trailer without the E3.Nintendo.com watermark, though. : / Same for the Nintendo World trailer featuring Fox with a blaster.

Can we split this article up first, though? After my reorganisation, it's pretty unwieldy to read now. ReiDemon 18:32, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

I dunno. Blindcolours ZoOm! 18:36, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Should I use the Admin noticeboard to request a split? Or is there somewhere else I should go? ReiDemon 21:14, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Just create a new talk page section. Blindcolours ZoOm! 21:28, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Request split of this article...

...into Beta Elements (SSB), Beta Elements (SSBM) and Beta Elements (SSBB). Beta Elements will act as a disambiguation page to the three respective articles.

((Am I doing this right?))

ReiDemon 21:48, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

If it were to be split, the resulting pages should have lower case titles, e.g. Beta elements (SSBB). Miles (talk) 21:57, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Apologies; I'm used to titling articles in the conventional, newspaper style (all words capitalised, articles left alone, etc.), and this is the first time I've ever made this type of request. So they would then be:

• Beta elements (SSB)
• Beta elements (SSBM)
• Beta elements (SSBB)
• Beta elements

Correct?

ReiDemon 22:02, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

I don't think it should be split. The article isn't that big right now. We only split these kinds of articles when they get really really big (such as "List of previous tier lists", "List of Trophies", and "Character Matchups"). Mr. Anon (talk) 22:37, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

This page is only 24,000 KB big. Thus, we need not split it up. DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} 23:29, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Alright, understandable. At what size should articles be split? ReiDemon 23:34, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

We don't exactly have any rules for that. Basically, if the article gets so large that it lags many user's computers, it's probably a good time to split it up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr. Anon (talk • contribs) {{{2}}}

Use of beta

[2] These guys know what they're talking about so... BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 20:57, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Your point is not clear. Are you trying to say we're misusing the term "beta"? Toomai Glittershine The Labbie 21:03, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

It looks like we are, yes. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 21:08, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

You got a better name in mind? ReiDemon 21:09, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Early? By the way, not every use of beta in this article is wrong, I'm not asking to change it entirely.BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 21:11, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

How about "Prototype Elements" or something? ReiDemon 22:17, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

No, as that is misuse. A prototype is a physical early version of the game. So thats not gonna work. Early does. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 22:22, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Would the term "unused" work? ReiDemon 19:57, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

Yes, but if it is unused, it was from earlier in development, hence "early". BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 20:14, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

Maybe "pre-release", just so that it won't sound weird. Mr. Anontalk 20:21, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

There is no misuse here, beta elements is a common term for any material taken out before the final release. There is absolutely no need to the move the title. Omega Tyrant 21:01, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

No no no. I never wanted to move to the title. People will search for the title "Beta Elements", we can't change that. I merely changed misuses of beta in the article. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 21:18, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

I don't think beta isn't not a proper word to use in this article. ..... 1998, 1999-2011 2010-2011 21:25, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

Those weren't misuses of beta, "beta elements" is the common term for any thing shown to be in early versions of a video game, but not in the final version. Beta elements is not referring to things that were in the beta version. Omega Tyrant 21:27, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

I thought the term Beta is a earlier version of something and that it may change before it gets released. Is this definition correct? ..... 1998, 1999-2011 2010-2011 21:32, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

That's another way the term can be used, which is just as correct. Toomai Glittershine The SMASH-GINEER 21:45, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

For general use, that is basically correct. Though for specifics, the Beta is a specific prereleased version. Omega Tyrant 21:46, 12 October 2011 (EDT)

Boxes In Battlefield

I don't think Snake's box in Battlefield is a beta element, but I think it's a foreshadowing of his inclusion King KirbyD (talk) 01:13, 18 March 2012 (EDT)[[King KirbyD [[talk
