Ok so I have to admit that this is not at all what I was expecting to come out of this. I was not expecting the total lack of support here, and while I am fine with it, I would kind of like to know why...a reason other than "the circumstances of PM's mention are badly defined" or "it will be very difficult to undo". Also I am going to point out that there seems to be a total separation of interests between the smash community and the editors of SmashWiki as to what should be covered and what shouldn't, especially regarding PM. It really feels like neither community is willing to give an inch, and so I feel like the only logical solution is to find some sort of middle ground solution, and allowing the mention of PM it was previously voted doesn't seem to be that big a step back for SmashWiki editors. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:12pt">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">King</span>]]'''</span> 01:31, 22 March 2017 (EDT)

:Most of the people that care about PM fall into two groups:
:#Not SmashWiki editors; they have their own stores of information on other websites and don't really need ours. I don't think it makes much sense to try and do anything about this, because it's not reasonable for us to add enough information to compete in this area.
:#Want to use sites such as SmashWiki to promote and expand PM. That's not what we're for.
:Let's not forget that PM is on shaky legal grounds (enough so for its development to abrubtly cease). I'm not an expert on the subject, but it may be best to leave our mentions of it a bit dormant.
