Notices
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.

Ownership

So, just to clarify, Bayonetta's a third party, right? Laniv (talk) 17:54, 15 December 2015 (EST)

Yeah, Sega owns the franchise AFAIK. Nyargleblargle.pngNyargleblargle (Contribs) 17:55, 15 December 2015 (EST)
Definitely. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY CLAWS! Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 17:56, 15 December 2015 (EST)
They own publishing rights. Its technically PlatinumGames's series, however since Sega published the first entry in the series solo, they co own it. Bayonetta 2 is also partially owned by Nintendo due to them funding the second games development.

Yeah she's Sega and Platinum's. Nintendo has some hold over the second Bayonetta game due to them funding it and an agreement with Platinum (which probably resulted in her playable cameo in Wonderful 101), but its still mostly Platinum's.---Preceding unsigned comment added by SilverSupernova.
Here's the basic gist: SEGA owns the IP, Platinum owns the development. AidanzapunkChristmasSig.pngAidan, the Jolly Space WarriorAidanzapunkChristmasSig2.png 10:31, 17 December 2015 (EST)
So its like SE's Relationship with disney in regards to the KH series, right. I dunno the fact that Sega nearly ended the series simply because they didn't want to fund it, and then goes around to work on the Sonic boom series, really irks me. I really wish Nintendo would buy the IP from Sega.

Human?

In her infobox it says she's a human, even though she's clearly an Umbra Witch. |:/ --72.250.149.164 10:51, 31 December 2015 (EST)

It was my understanding that an Umbra Witch is a clan, not a species.
Although, I would agree that calling her human is a little bit of a stretch. Might be better to just leave species blank. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 10:54, 31 December 2015 (EST)
Bayonetta Wiki says Umbra Witches was a clan, witch which Bayonetta is descended from.
That said, there's nothing on her page over there that states what species she is... AidanzapunkChristmasSig.pngAidan, the Jolly Space WarriorAidanzapunkChristmasSig2.png 10:59, 31 December 2015 (EST)
I'll just remove it for now until we can get a Bayonetta expert who doesn't just use Bayonetta Wiki in :P ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 11:02, 31 December 2015 (EST)
Check him/her about this. 98.157.202.185 11:37, 31 December 2015 (EST)
