:::::::FGC, huh? Eh... I'm still apprehensive about it. I brought up TF2's wiki before because that's also a game with a significant competitive scene, and yet even in its [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Competitive_play competitive section] there's little about actual players; instead there are links to actual league sites for all the player info and standings. Doesn't the FGC have sites like that we could link to, like EVO standings or such? I get documenting competitive strategy on the wiki, but the players themselves would be better-covered by sites like that, where there's info on all the players without having to deal with determining notability. Wouldn't it be better to just link to their player pages instead of having our own?

At EVO 2014, out of the eight fighting games, Melee had the [http://shoryuken.com/2014/07/01/evo-2014-registration-numbers-released-ultra-street-fighter-iv-leads-the-pack-with-nearly-2000-players/ third most entrants]. When I call Melee a FGC game, I'm comparing it to the other games that are featured at fighting game tournaments like EVO. TF2 seems pretty irrelevant here; regardless of the size of its competitive scene, it doesn't seem to fit in the same category as the FGC games. And if this wiki was to document competitive things and tournaments, but not the players, then that would feel very incomplete and lacking.
