Forums: Index Brawl talk Articles on games...

It's come to my attention that we have articles on games that have been lingering here for a while and need to be eliminated. Examples: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, Star Fox: Assault. To be honest, these articles, in terms of giving information, are useless. If a character has a move that comes from a game, then that's what should be mentioned in said character's article. If a character appears in Brawl or Melee as a trophy, then the article is thus useless and should not have ever existed. We've been over this with trophy articles (surprisingly, some of them are still here).

Since that (what I said in parentheses) is true, I also propose that all trophies be merged into one article. Trophies, stickers, and games do not merit their own articles. This is why we have "list" pages. For some reason, there is a list page... and still, trophies have articles. This needs to be fixed. If we can go through with this, the Wiki will be less of a pig sty. I told OmegaTyrant this and he suggested to me that I ask for the opinions of the community, so here I am, with the forum. Go!

Stickers don't need articles. Trophies that are only trophies don't need articles, but if they are also something else (like a stage element), then they can stay. Certain game articles need to go, but important ones can stay. Dr. Pain 99 Dp99.png Talk 03:37, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
I partially agree with you, in that we have too many articles about games. However, games like Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, which have references from Smash, should definitly be kept. Mr. Anon (talk) 04:47, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

More people have to give their opinion on this. We have to set a criteria for game articles, as well as deciding if trophies deserve entire articles and if songs from SSB do as well. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 03:44, July 5, 2010 (UTC)
