Deletion

I don't see the point of this template or its partner. We currently call the game "Super Smash Bros. 4" and specify version from there if necessary. As-is the template doesn't even follow the Manual of Style either, and if it did there would be no real purpose to it (it would just be a single static no-redirect no-anchor intrawiki link).

What's wrong with having this template if it makes things easier to type for us? Awesome Cardinal 2000 07:50, 14 April 2014 (EDT)

It makes it much easier and takes up less coding when you're saying something like "this is their appearance in the 3DS version of the game". This makes it necessary to specify the version, and the template is easier to use then typing the title manually. Scr7(talk · contribs) 08:47, 14 April 2014 (EDT)

I use this template whenever I need to specify the Wii U version of the game, and deleting this template would be an inconvenience that would make me sad. Toast ltimatum 08:49, 14 April 2014 (EDT)

In addition to the above, this also means that should we at some point split the SSB4 page into pages for the two versions (or have pages that specifically cover each version plus a general SSB4 page for both), this template could be easily changed to link to that instead, saving the trouble of a lot of manual relinking or bot edits on something not consistently formatted otherwise.
