Forum:Paragraph secion Order (Moves)
|
This discussion is in regards to a proposed change on SmashWiki. The discussion must first meet with a consensus before it is implemented. |
I am hoping that we can clear up the sections of the characters' moves, namely the order. Pretty much every type of page, stage, item, character, start off with the Origin of where it came from. Moves do not however. As with the stages, they contain an overview of the subject. However, some moves list their differences between installments, if there are any., regardless how small. I think Thunder and Quick Attack currently show the example I am suggesting. Overview>Origin>Smash>Trivia. Much like the stages, the Overview explains what it is. Lists the stuff Saffron City has, and explains what happens when Thunder is used. The Origin explains where they came from. Saffron City from Pokemon for the stage, and explains what the move is and does in its home series. Unlike the stages, the moves have more information on how it is applied and operates in Smash. Quick Attack explains how the move works, and lists differences or any extra info depending on the installment it applies to. The Final Smashes Volt Tackle and Light Arrow currently follow the same layout with the Overview and Origin. I feel it makes more sense, and is easier to find differing information when listed as Overview>Origin>Smash>Trivia. Thank you. Wolff (talk) 17:20, June 19, 2019 (EDT)
I feel that explaining what a move is, followed by where it came from, then how it is applied in Smash is easier to understand differences in installments and makes the pages flow nicer. Wolff (talk) 00:53, June 21, 2019 (EDT)
- Disagreeing because as a Smash encyclopedia, more people come here to look up how something works in Smash compared to people who come here to look up the origin of something in Smash. The latter is a trivium outside the game; the former is part of the game. If I look up a stage, I want to know its attributes in Smash before I know what game(s) it came from. Same with items and characters, and moves. Zowayix (talk) 21:54, June 21, 2019 (EDT)
