| The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
| When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Revision as of 19:23, September 4, 2012
To elaborate on my last change
While traffic on the wiki is not out of hand, I find it equally false to say "no new information needs to be added". As a result, the Wiki is in a state between Green and Yellow, where more traffic is desired (through the poor Smasherspace) but traffic has not actually happened. However, if the solution to our out-of-date competitive scope is to try and get more competitive players on this wiki, then we will have to be prepared for greater traffic. That is why I want to keep the status at 5%. This signals that the wiki is out of date, but traffic is not enough to completely shift the status color. Mr. Anon

- I'd also like to note that as low traffic as the wiki may seem, one of the main reasons Omega Tyrant and (to a lesser extent) Korobeniki seem to be around is to help improve the Wiki's competitive scope, and I postulate that they would be much less active if the wiki were completely up-to-date. Mr. Anontalk 19:55, 3 September 2012 (EDT)
- Ok here is an issue: as OT said, we have little information on the Smasher community as only about three people on this wiki have decent knowledge of the competitive scene. There is no need to be alarmed but if you want to keep it at 5% then I wont oppose. LightningBlue

- While it is true that there aren't many experts on competitive smash on this wiki, I'm sure a fair amount of the lacking knowledge can be completed by any user who just spends a little effort doing the research. For example, I intend to revamp many of the SSB 64 (and hopefully Melee if I get the chance) character articles by looking through smash boards tier and matchup discussions, as well as reliable guides and tournament videos. While the result won't be as high quality as what Omega Tyrant has done with the Brawl articles, it is a start. Mr. Anontalk 00:06, 4 September 2012 (EDT)
