I've been working in the wiki a lot recently updating special move pages and would love to help out if a new one is made.

Regarding the "notable player" issue, I'd think there needs to be some standarization on what being one means. The most obvious criteria for me would be tournament placings; creating an official list with all the conditions could be a great idea.

There is standardization. You must be top 8 in a tournament to be notable and have a page and that same rule applies to the ones listed on character pages.

that's on them then. you can't prove that you're good at a game without competing.

Half of the wiki is now garbage......

...it's a wiki you're whining about. Literally just log in and fix it if you don't like something or something is inaccurate :yoshi:

Why do you automatically assume I wrote your page? I'm a busy man I ain't got time for all that. I don't even think I've edited it.

I don't understand why there has to be a notable players list. It's starting to become a problem when people are caring more about their names being on their mains character pages instead of the actual content of the character pages themselves. The wiki still has character info and tier placement from 9a and no patch list anywhere but people just want their own smasher page?

People should be focusing on advancing the metagame and entering tournaments if they want a Smasher page, that's the idea; foster wiki/tournament/general metagame advancement through excitement about the smasher pages.

Kyoz it was Dark Ermac who created your page. He created most of the player pages. Don't know why you thought he would make a page for you though.

have a roast sesh when yung g's away for the weekend zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

fr though, notable players shoud b just that 'notable', players that do s*** for the char, either advancing meta, getting results, or just showing solid play. (Peach - SoraB, Tac3, yaboi, IronH, possibly yung TEEZEE | math - DS, SS etc. etc. etc.) If some randy called cswoolworths dept. store is listed under 1/2 of the chars, serious players aren't gonna b taking the wiki seriously at all. just my thots. (no offense 2 C(ali) S(wag) woolz, scotland represent...)

If we go by the rule that Top 8 is all you need, I want my page ASAP, I got 6th place in Hypest 4(? 5? The one that IronH won) :wee: Serious again, its quite obvious I dont deserve one (yet), so I dont even feel the need to go ask for one. The only notable thing I got is having most Salty Suites lol

Gosick nailed it pretty well in his version imo. If you want a "notable player" and/or a player page, go do sonething for it besides whining that you dont have one yet. Develop the meta, find techniques, go pull a Rem on an underdeveloped character or do something otherwise that lets you deserve that page. And if you have one but think its crap, go f*** edit it.Sheesh, I thought that would be clear, but apparently almost everyone here turns to immature childy pricks when it comes to those points :hmph: Just my two cents tho, and also one of my few problems with this community. Since we got the Best Mains to learn from thread and the wiki player page, I feel like everyone is focusing more on their image and "Eyyyy I want a page tou Im superfame" and bs like that. Shoutouts to those who actually act according to their age, and sorry if I offended anyone with my little rant.

If Skailler gets a page, I get one too!!!!!! /s


Totally agree with Skailler. Getting Internet points for being good at a video game shouldn't trump just being mature. We (should) all enjoy the game and all want to push the meta and get better, and so we should really just all buckle down and play the game and learn about it from each other instead of trying to get people to say you're good.

Thanks Code, Skai and Gosick for saying this.

If you placed top 8 at least once in tournament, feel free to make your own player page. It saves me the trouble of making literally everyone's page.

Anyway, I'm probably going to shift over to actually correcting some other articles now that aren't related to competitive play.

The good news is there's now no valid reason to b**** about my page.

I never said they weren't lol and I did agree with you too. So I ask you, by which criteria could you consider their inclusion? Thats what my post was aiming at, we need a way to determine whether their inclusion in the wiki is deserving or not in the most objective way, not by someone saying they are/aren't great. Dunno if I made myself a bit more clear or not haha.


Hmmmm, well videos help see their skill level that way your actually seeing their skill not just reading a placing, if there arent any videos of them(With SS posting 1vs1s and other combos not just by hm, Jammy doing Flashback, M7 doof and many others making videos its hard not to find videos of the players who hang around the IRC) Play them, this is the best way to find out how good they are

Videos proving their skill and knowledge of the game sounds actually a good measure, I agree on you with that. I like how SkaiPower put it too:
