message: In the above link, we give an explanation on how Toad could be playable, but afterwards we say we don't want speculation. Even with the speculation rule being stated afterwards, it still seems that we are encourging them to speculate by giving an explanation on how Toad could be playable. Shouldn't this be changed???Claycrow 17:05, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The FAQ exists in WP's talk space, and is not bound by the usual policies and guidelines for verification, original research, and speculation.  The idea is that that FAQ is to help cut down excessive discussion that occurs on this talk page as to avoiding using this talk page as a forum about the game, instead of being a forum about how to improve the article. --MASEM 17:09, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

text: As long as it's not articlespace, it's fine.  OR, speculation, verifiability, applies to article space.  The FAQ is intended to help people editing articles.  --Son 19:08, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: [[Talk:Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl/FAQ#Characters|Toad]]

message: I gotta say, I'm kinda tired of this whole thing about 100% absolute verification on stuff, and all the things we have to leave off the page. There are plenty of articles on wikipedia that tell things such as that whole Ganondorf/Shiek design thing. I think we need a trivia column. Other articles have em, and it'd allow for more of the little things there isn't room for right now.
On another note, I feel some people are far too controlative about putting supposedly trivial info. The people who need this page the most aren't the guys who even know that there is a site for the game. All the info here can be found there anyway (kinda obsoleting the article). The people who need this page are the people who just learned about the game or took an intrest in it and want to know things like what's different and who's new. Why not have a list of NEW characters on this page? Just an idea. Seriously though, 1st paragraph, important.

thread_title:  Editing the Page 

message: Upon its review on November 2, 2007, this good article nomination was quick-failed because it:
has been the subject of recent ongoing edit wars or is the subject of a future event
thus making it ineligible for good article consideration.
This article did not receive a thorough review, and may not meet other parts of the good article criteria.  Future video games, films, buildings and events in general cannot become GAs due to stability issues. For example, once the game is released, there is going to need to be a whole section on "Reception" that will need to be added. I encourage you to remedy this problem (and any others) and resubmit it for consideration.  If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a Good article reassessment.  Thank you for your work so far.— Cheers, CP 15:18, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Failed "good article" nomination

message: I know this has been discussed already, but I found an excellent source. It was noted in Jeux-France that the VA of Krystal confirmed her appereance on Brawl on her site. It even gets to another source showing this. If you want the translation, press on the Babelfish English Translation on the page. Before you dissagree, please check the site. I would be waiting for your opinions.  --Mr.Mario 192 20:16, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That matters little.  As has also been discussed earlier, even if she does turn out to be in the game, besides being added to the (series) character table (if she's playable), neither that article nor this one would change. Arrowned 20:23, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Wikipedia=Wikipedia. Just follow that formatting. Second, no, not untill we actually see what your talking about and determine if you're right.Dengarde ► Complaints  20:30, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: And anyway, if Jeux-France is just talking about her website, then I can tell you from having seen the website myself when the reference was there (she's since removed it, assumedly at Nintendo's request) that all it said was Krystal was in the game.  She could just be an assist trophy, especially since this same woman is voicing Knuckle Joe, who we know is just an assist trophy.  Until it shows up at Dojo or someone high up in Nintendo confirms her playability, there's no point in adding her. Arrowned 20:32, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: <ec with Arrowned>What he said. She also confirmed that she's voicing Knuckle Joe, yet he's not a playable character, he's an Assist Trophy. Just because it was listed on her site for a very short amount of time, that doesn't mean Krystal is a confirmed playable character, simply that she's in the game. Dengarde ► Complaints  20:36, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Exactly. Now, I can't even read French, but it seems that Jeux-France is just stating what they saw on her site. Which didn't confirm much, and was eventually removed. Dengarde ► Complaints  20:40, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Bablefish states the exact same thing. That she announces the presence of Krystal in Brawl. Which, it does not anymore. And even if it did, still no proof if she's an assist trophy/playable character/Subspace extra or whatever. Dengarde ► Complaints  21:00, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Krystal 

message: To the people arguing about the name: State what other names the game goes by. Do not put "Super Smash Brothers Brawl (Japanese Name)" as that would infer that the Japanese name is a translation, when it is not. Please state the Japanese name in a separate sentence. (Ex. "Super Smash Brothers Brawl is a game. In Japan the game is called Whatever (Japanese characters here)") This format holds true to most other video games released in different countries.
Also, about the caption under the Pit and Mario picture... List the characters in order as they appear from left to right so that any newcomers may not become confused, so put it as "Pit and Mario...". Kalidascorp 00:51, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: We've run into a similar problem over at the Super Mario Galaxy article.  Since there's no official consensus on how Japanese names should be handled, we've been working on a proposal for the video game article guidelines.  The current proposal is to include the Japanese name when it differs sufficiently (i.e. it is not a transliteration) of the English name, but we have yet to hammer out how exactly it should be presented.  One of the participant in the discussion pointed out the recent edit war on this topic over at this article, so I dropped by to let you know that it's being worked on and invite anyone interested in participating in the discussion to do so here. --jonny-mt(t)(c)Tell me what you think! 08:51, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't there be mention in the article that some weapons have changed appearance and ability? If a characters change in appearance is note worthy, then in theory that applies to items too, e.g. the beam sword has changed from purple to blue, and now has even longer reach.

replies: text:  I believe it would be worthwhile to say that some returning items have changed, and then put an example or two, such as the longer beam sword. However, it does not need it's own section, so we should integrate it into another. Kalidascorp 22:42, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I integrated it into the Gameplay section, the last paragraph. Kalidascorp 22:49, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it has been removed for some reason, I don't know why, but what you had wrote did sound about right. I am not argueing for a list or table of items, just acknowledgement that returning items have changed appearance and ability e.g. like I said before, the beam sabre is now blue instead of purple, and has longer reach. **BM** 12:51, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: So it's a little longer and a different color. Hardly notable, even in th game. DurinsBane87 14:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not notable because of its features, but because it has changed from the last game. Because Link has changed design/appearance along with other characters, it is notable. Therefore if an item changes appearance from the last game, it should be notable too. I am not asking for anything big, hey I could just add a sentence, but it would be deleted like Kalidascorp's comment. Just something saying although many items have returned from the last game, some like the beam sword have changed in appearance. **BM** 17:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  There's a huge notability difference between a playable character who stars in multiple games and a single weapon with slight appearance changes. DurinsBane87 17:51, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not a single item which has changed. If you even bothered to read through the page cited, you would see that the update states that many returning items have been refurbished. I'm not listing every one, I'm just mentioning it in the article, or else newcomers would believe it was always like this. The item itself isn't notable. The general change among many items is. Kalidascorp 22:32, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I did read it, I read EVERY update. They're very slight changes on nonnotable items. DurinsBane87 22:42, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

text: The changes are notable, the items are not. The solution is to state in one easy sentence that some returning items have been changed. We are not listing every change which has occurred, we are just generalizing the fact, which is what should be done, especially to facts such as these. While a single change to a single item does not need to be mentioned, the combined weight of many returning items becoming refurbished makes the fact notable. Kalidascorp 23:43, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

message: If you look at the history he's been inserting nothing but his personal vendetta against Nintendo, with words like 'contempt' being used. Not to mention he yet again mentioned delay in his recent edit.
He was rash and removed mine and another editor's edits without merit. Without. Any. Merit.
He hasn't backed up his reasoning for his edits and I would like a few of you to discuss which version should stay, as for now, I strongly disagree with the mention of delay. The game had an unknown release date from the start. Early 2008 could be interpreted in different ways, so lay off that please. --HeaveTheClay (talk) 22:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing more than a cursory mention of the game's release date in Europe is necessary; unlike the Americas and Japan, they had not issued a concrete release date prior to today's announcement. Coreycubed (talk) 22:59, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Not sure though on it's validity, but it seems like we've already added a source and changed the release date of Europe on the article. What to do?

replies: text: Replace "We" with "Stevo" - all the edits in regards to the European release date, save for an OR revert by me and some tidying by another editor, fall squarely on him. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 01:43, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, I was referring to certain sources (I forgot them already =/) that stated "Geno will be announced toninght on the DOJO!". All I'm implying is that we should take everything that comes from a "general source" with caution. Zanibas (talk) 06:32, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Europe Release Date Delayed? 

message: Should there be a new page, with a link to it on the brawl page, about the pokeball pokemon and assist trophies.  It could provide information about who the characters are, what they do in brawl, and other information.  I myself came to wikipedia several times to look up the assist trophy characters, because I did not know who devil, little mac, or saki amamiya were. A page that links to these characters' profiles or games would be very useful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.15.40.2 (talk • contribs) 
:The Super Smash Bros. Brawl article does not need to have a link to those pages. If you had done a search on Wikipedia for "little mac", for example, you would have found out who he is. Additionally, many of the characters features in Assist Trophies are a bit esoteric; not all of them are going to be notable enough to have their own Wikipedia page or section. As for their function in Brawl, a collection of information would amount to little more than a game guide, which is not appropriate for Wikipedia. A small section on the character's page would be enough (such as with Little Mac's page). Coreycubed (talk) 20:34, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

text: I disagree, Son. Remember that we don't have to include everything we know. What's really stopping us from getting GA status is that the game isn't out yet so all the information is kind of volatile.    Powerslave  21:32, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
