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. |

- Oppose in its current state. I'm not big on how the page is written right now. The opening section especially could use a more defined structure. In addition, the "what being bold is not" section should be reworded to more heavily emphasize what the "best way" to act bold is, and paragraphs are currently split up unnecessarily.
- By the way, is this intended to be a guideline or policy? I feel it should be the former. Nyargleblargle (Contribs) 19:49, 15 July 2017 (EDT)
- I'll see if I can address your complaints, though I did intend for this to be strictly a guideline. Can't exactly ban someone for not being bold.
Oppose this seems kinda unnecessary. We shouldn't have to tell people to make edits they think will help? Also side-note how many proposals do you plan on making because this is kinda getting tedious. Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 19:54, 15 July 2017 (EDT)
- Something I've noticed is that we have quite a number of users who stay on Recent Changes and don't edit; furthermore, a number of former discussions received particularly disappointing turnout, something I feel that is detrimental to the Wiki. Also, by your logic, we should delete SmashWiki:You are valuable, since it "only" tells users that their edits are valuable.
- And for your final question, I obviously plan on writing 105 different guidelines and policies in the future. Are you going to automatically oppose them just because I've written so many?
- And that's another thing, this kinda seems supplementary to SW:YAV, and could probably just be covered there.
- Also 105?! At this rate we'll be the future Soviet Union with all these rules... Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 20:13, 15 July 2017 (EDT)
- I disagree. YAV covers that editors are valuable; Be Bold covers that editors should be bold, two objectives that are separate, distinct, and different from one another.
- Also, thanks to that snide remark, I now plan on writing 106 different guidelines and policies.
