For the official shortcut, we will use [[SW:FIRST]]. I'm debating whether SW:RTFM should be available or not; we don't want to show it to newbies or hair-trigger sourpusses, but it's apt, effective, and can possibly help cleave clueless mules. Once I get some opinions here I see no reason to delay policyfiying this.

+1 for page name - Ceci n’est pas un Smiddle. 17:42, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

I think we should change the name to "First Start" or something like that, and rename the subheadings section. Awesome Cardinal 2000 21:20, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

I can deal with having to rename the page, but I would still like the acronym to be meaningful. I see no problem with the subsection names. Toomai Glittershine ??? The SMASH-GINEER 18:54, 10 June 2013 (EDT)

Support even though this kind of sounds like the Simplified Ruleset. RoyboyX Talk 22:34, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

I'm probably biased but I think this is better than that page because it's less generic and more in line with the current culture. Toomai Glittershine ??? The SMASH-GINEER 18:54, 10 June 2013 (EDT)

Support: Bagels. I also have to add to what Tommai said. The simplified ruleset was copied from Wikipedia and doesn't well-reflect SmashWiki. Also, I don't think it gives very good advice. If I were to give advice to a newbie about what or how to edit, this is where I'd point, not the simplified ruleset, as this says exactly what I would say. Another point: I didn't even know the simplified ruleset was here until you mentioned it. We can publicize this better via use of the Welcome Template, the site notice, and/or the main page, and make it more helpful than the simplified ruleset that no one really cares about.

Support The simplified ruleset we have is pretty useless and nowhere near as helpful as this for a "simple rulest". Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 02:28, 16 June 2013 (EDT)

Support: This is a very smart idea for a first page for newcomers to visit. Good job, Toomai. DarkFox01DF01Sig.pngis a BitF fan 15:39, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

Support: Well written and isn't too long. Overall, great! Scr7FalcoIcon2.jpg 15:46, 18 June 2013 (EDT)
