Smasher talk:IntroSpecktive

Deletion

Gonna have to say this but this page has to go, I fully support this deletion. S3AHAWK (talk) 20:50, July 12, 2020 (EDT)

Support as well, this article was deleted before and will be deleted again for the exact same reason. NPM Morr!? 21:26, July 12, 2020 (EDT)

Support Player has no relevance to the competitive scene. Page needs to go. Señor Mexicano (talk) 00:31, July 15, 2020 (EDT)

Support: Try creating a smasher article that has actual tournament results. A popular Youtube channel is insufficient warrant a page. MemeDedede (talk) 09:40, July 16, 2020 (EDT)

The new notability policy seems to completely contradict the arguments made here. He's definitely been "contributing to the growth of the community" through his YouTube channel, and he is certainly a "content creator". I don't get the arguments here given this. Heavy oppose. --Plague von Karma 11:02, July 22, 2020 (EDT)

I feel as though many people forget that the notability guideline specifically says that notability is defined "for the purposes of this Wiki, as any article pertaining to the competitive community of the Super Smash Bros. series". IntroSpecktive's content creation and contributions to the community have nothing to do with the competitive scene which is what the wiki documents. As per current guidelines the subject in question is not notable. Señor Mexicano (talk) 15:11, July 22, 2020 (EDT)

Neutral. I don't see a reason to not include popular Smash YouTubers without a competitive presence, but at the same time Smasher pages are for competitive players, not content creators. Also, I don't want to go down the rabbit hole on defining what a "notable" content creator is, especially since the ones with a lot of subscribers such as Alpharad, Shofu, and Little Z have participated in legitimate tournaments and a subscriber threshold isn't really a good idea for notability.

The question that needs to be asked is, has he ever been in a tournament notable by this wiki's standards? Not that I recall, but I may be wrong. If he has, Oppose. If not, Support. Sincerely, Samuel the Banjo-Kazooie Boss. 15:54, July 22, 2020 (EDT)

As per my latest edit summary on the page, bump again. S3AHAWK (talk) 15:59, July 25, 2020 (EDT)

third bump S3AHAWK (talk) 22:14, July 31, 2020 (EDT)

All right, I'm getting tired of this. I apologize if I'm forgetting something, but can we not just delete the page already? Support is nearly unanimous, with no reasonable arguments being made against it. Sincerely, Samuel the Banjo-Kazooie Boss. 00:50, August 1, 2020 (EDT)

Doing some quick research, I found Intro has no Smash.gg profile. Intro has a SmashBoards account and, as of August 1, 2020, he hasn't been seen in 4 years. So yeah, gonna reconfirm my support here. S3AHAWK (talk) 01:10, August 1, 2020 (EDT)

Aren't we supposed to delete this here talk page as well now that the associated mainspace page is gone? Sincerely, Samuel the Banjo-Kazooie Boss. 22:22, March 29, 2021 (EDT)

I say not delete yet and think this case should be brought back up, because I want to know since when was it decided that being a big Smash youtuber didn't count as any sort of notability. Plague is right here, and I've noticed the CCD article was deleted, as well as an attempt to create a MagicScrumpy article was deleted, which I find highly disagreeable. We even have a Youtuber category, which exists because youtube stuff is noteworthy. Plus I don't find this distinction with "contribution to the competitive community" worthwhile; the Smash community is the Smash community, and it's not like these people's fans weren't largely competitive players themselves, or that they didn't contribute by getting more casuals into competitive play.
