| 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. |

There are serious issues with The Big House 6 results page that I'll have to escalate to your ssbwiki superiors if they aren't resolved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Juggleguy (talk • contribs) 17:58, 13 October 2016 (EST)
- I'm already on your talk page explaining the situation to you, so I can assure you that's not necessary. Disaster Flare

Focus
He's the best Luigi in Georgia, but I don't really know how to source that. Is being the best character in your state enough to qualify as a notable player? His best result is at FP6 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ovenbakedsemwitch (talk • contribs) 20:48, 15 October 2016 (EST)
- Firstly, please remember to sign your comments (you can see an instruction how near the top of the screen when you edit a talk page). Secondly, claiming they're the best in a state will not do much without evidence, which is why smasher articles are a thing when it comes to notable players sections. The only evidence you can really give in this case are if he's got a good rank on a Power Rank or having good results in general. Two results aren't going to cut it, in my opinion. You can find more info on that and more here. Disaster Flare (talk) 16:52, 15 October 2016 (EDT)
- Sry! Still learning the ropes. So looking at that notability guide, would I technically qualify? I lead the greater boston arena, which organizes tournaments for different games in eastern mass and nh.--Ovenbakedsemwitch (talk) 17:11, 15 October 2016 (EDT)
- Not really sure, to be honest.... XD I don't follow the competitive scene all that much, so I can really only explain the basics of notability. I'd recommend talking to someone like this guy for questions like that. Disaster Flare (talk) 17:44, 15 October 2016 (EDT)

Getting people to talk on a talk page
(first of all, is it even okay to go into an admin's talk page to chat about deletions? I don't know much about wikis but usually this is done in the deletion site itself)
So... how do i do that?
Look, yeah, i definitely just assumed and ran with it. Not the best ettiquette, but it was the only way i thought of that could draw some sort of attention. Besides, it's not like it's hard to delete again.
Do realize that i'm entirely new to this, and as such i understand y'all have your own methods of settling new precedents. I posted that in the talk page because indeed i was trying to either kickstart some discussion, or, in the case you guys were already discussing and i just missed things, to get up to date on how it went. My apologies if recreating a page makes me come across as a wiki vandal.
As far as i'm aware, my solution, that is, creating its own page, is perfectly acceptable. Instead of deleting the page, why not keep it up until someone provides an argument as to why it should be deleted (preferably in the TBH6 talk page)? I understand this is a new situation to the wiki, but if no one wants to discuss it, then why not leave it up for the people who actually want to contribute, like myself? That sounds a lot more preferable than the "limbo" state things are right now, wouldn't you say?

- A few things
- Yes, it is always acceptable to talk to an admin about anything, that's what we are here for :)
- Creating a page again after an admin deleted it without a reason other than assuming that we are ok with it is not ok.
- In order for the PM@TBH2 page to exist, there must be a consensus for it, and it should probably be on the page's talk (which you can create here). If you don't get anyone responding at first, wait for more users to get on (you can check that on the recent changes), then bump the page (just type "bump. ~~~~" on the talk page and maybe put something like "we need a consensus on whether or not this should exist") in the edit summary.
- We have an argument: There has never been an article dedicated for a PM (or any game for that matter) side event.
- And maybe this is something to bring up on the PM@TBH2 talk, but the "2" suggests that there was one of these prior? Maybe instead of making a page for the second one, we make one for the whole series. That I would actually find acceptable. Serpent
