Template talk:Infobox Character General

I removed that irrelevant crap

But there's a problem. Look at Mario's page; there is something on the right and it appears to be a result of disruption. Please help? BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:32, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Is the disruption you're speaking of is the Japanese voice actor section, where it just says {{{japanactor}}}? Omega Tyrant 12:07, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Well, that is now the problem; on pages such as Gordo, there appears {{{japanactor}}} even though the code has been removed. Could someone fix that? BNK ^[E|T|C] 23:03, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

On my computer this template adds in an extra }} after it on every page. I cant immediately see where this comes from on the page but it needs to be fixed Oni Dark Link 15:50, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Fixed it. Toomai Glittershine 15:57, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Um, apparently some users can't take a hint and keep putting that nonsense back up here. I'm removing that stuff again until a user gives me a logical reason why we should keep it. Doctor Pain 99 (CTE) 23:19, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Series symbol in template

People seem to be debating whether the general character pages should have the subject's series symbol floating to the top left of the article text. Should we put it in the template (below the caption) instead? Toomai Glittershine The Superlative 10:03, 17 November 2012 (EST)

Yeah they should be below the caption like on the articles with those characters playable.Brawls of fury (talk) 17:56, 17 November 2012 (EST)

Definitely. It looks much, much better aesthetically. Air Conditioner a real nowhere man 17:05, 20 November 2012 (EST)

Below caption, since stages have that as well. --RoyboyX Talk 17:51, 22 November 2012 (EST)

Can we start doing this? Brawls of fury (talk) 16:58, 26 November 2012 (EST)

...So yes? Brawls of fury (talk) 16:45, 27 November 2012 (EST)

Reduction of unnecessary fluff

I propose the following:

1. Remove the "hair" and "eyes" lines. It should be immediately apparent from the images provided on the page.
2. Remove the "homeworld" line. In most cases it provides little relevant information, and in several terminology has to be outright invented.
3. Compression of the "creator" and "artist" lines.
4. Compression of the voice actor lines into one line that lists who voices them in Smash. We don't need to list every person who has ever provided that character's voice in their home series.
5. Not using this template on Assist Trophy character pages, and instead implementing a simpler infobox specifically for Assist Trophies who don't need this much detail. (Additionally, AT pages should use their Smash artwork in their infoboxes, not original-series artwork like playable characters).
