Wolf's Voice Actor

I've seen alot of changes being made to who Wolf's voice actor is. So far it's went from Ja Green to Mike West. Now it says Jay Ward voices him. Do we have a definitive answer to this? Dakota 952 01:24, 17 January 2019 (EST)

The voice director for Starlink says Wolf is Jay Ward, and they got Fox and Wolf mixed up, which explains why some thought it was Mike West at first. Mike West also says the Jay Ward is Wolf in Starlink. WolfBloodSpam (talk) 14:06, 17 January 2019 (EST) WolfBloodSpam (talk) 14:06, 17 January 2019 (EST)

It's Jay Ward. According to this at least https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/video-games/Super-Smash-Bros-Ultimate/Wolf-ODonnell/ Wolff (talk) 14:26, 17 January 2019 (EST)

Notable players

Why does Wolf's section have 20+ names? The game hasn't even been out for 6 months and there are players listed whose best achievements are placing 49th or having them as a "strong secondary". PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 07:21, 13 February 2019 (EST)

For the notable players section, me and Aidan agreed that GENESIS 6 was probably the best place to start the "notable players" section especially since 1. the game had been out for 2 months and 2. GENESIS 6 was the first supermajor. As for the 20+ names... I wasn't the one who added them. Definitely remove most of the non-notable ones. SugarCookie 420 07:31, 13 February 2019 (EST)

I'm still iffy on having a notable players' section this early in the game's lifespan, but I'm willing to let it slide for now. My primary issue is with the sheer length of names, because "a strong Wolf secondary" and "49th at x tournament" are blatantly not as good as "5th at GENESIS 6".

I mean, feel free to remove smashers who you don't think is notable enough. I already removed some. SugarCookie 420 07:40, 13 February 2019 (EST)

I'm of the thought that these "notable players" sections shouldn't even exist until at least something like six months have passed, early results are going to be irrelevant really soon and patches + DLC means much of these players will probably not even use the character longterm. We went through this with Smash 4, and how many of the players that were flooded in those super early "notable players" sections were actually worth a damn with their claimed character some more months in? (For example, does anyone remember Neitono the Greninja main?)

Then in general, as one of the people who originally got these sections created, I always intended these sections to be for "historically significant" players of the character (i.e. for the players with the absolute best results or who otherwise was a primary innovator), as a section of just notable players is pretty redundant when we already got a category for every notable player of the character, and thus always disliked the trend of these sections getting so bloated with every player from a somewhat known region or who once placed well at a major. So under that metric, even if these sections are valid to have at this point, much more strict scrutiny should be applied and we shouldn't be putting everybody here who got a good placing at one major nor every top player who touched the character a few times. I honestly wouldn't put anyone in Wolf's yet other than arguably Zackray, who will certainly at least go down as a primary innovator if his results drop or he drops Wolf in the near future.
