YES PLEASE

This has been a pretty small rumor for awhile. Idk if it's past that stage yet. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 12:55, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Then we wait for it to get popular, and if not, we don't add it. Aidan, the Wandering Space Warrior 13:05, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Seems to be gaining speed. Time to add the "Rumors about future games" section back? ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 15:13, 28 January 2016 (EST)

It's been gaining enough press to warrant it. Wouldn't hurt. Miles (talk) 15:28, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Reconsidering the Lucina hoax.

Since I'm a genius and thus don't need to double check things, I did not notice this discussion that took place about half a year ago.

While I do support the majority of DatNuttyKid's proposal, the Lucina hoax should still be featured on the page.

I'll address the claims brought up on the original proposal. DatNuttyKid's claim that the Lucina hoax was not widespread is true, especially given how the image was debunked within hours of it being first posted; regardless, the implications of the leak are notable, akin to how Wikipedia had a page on Pat Venditte even though he had never played a major league game, due to his presence having modified the rules of baseball. As outlined in the now-removed text, it demonstrated how Brawl hacks were sometimes used to create hoaxed images. Now, this wasn't just some flash-in-the-pan realisation where people thought about it and forgot about it about two minutes later; cross-checking was actually done for quite a while after the image. I know at least one post on AllIsBrawl attempted a similar hoax with Roy a few months after the Lucina hoax (which I can't find, probably because the post was deleted, the user changed his or her name, or, more than likely, the site just turning into shit; I think I might have the image somewhere on my HDD, but we'll see), and during the original ESRB leaks, some users in the original threads and YouTube videos initially believed the leak to be a hoax by claiming Shulk's moveset was a hack of Ike's moveset in Brawl. As outlined later on this page, the Palutena rumor was also cross-checked with Brawl hacks.

Furthermore, the original author of the proposal also claimed that Omni's Rayman renders the Lucina hoax moot. Apples and oranges, Lucina hoax was Brawl-based and Rayman was...whatever the hell Artsy Omni used-based shenanigans. And this ignores the fact that when something is notable, it remains notable; if we're going to remove informationthat has been superseded, then why bother having articles on Gematsu leaks?

Anyways, I've said my piece, I'm off to kick Mega's arse in OJ.

Midgar Music Rumor

I realize it would have been better to bring this up before Midgar came out - Jesus, it's almost been one whole year - but I still think it's better to mention it later than never. This image popped up at least once or twice in my Facebook feed a few days or so before the December Direct; is it at least worth mentioning?

Final Fantasy's series symbol is different there... better than the "FF" it uses now. Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 20:31, 7 November 2016 (EST)

Given that it never got any significant press, it probably doesn't qualify. Miles (talk) 20:35, 7 November 2016 (EST)
