Where are you?
I know our information is not copyrighted, but [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Luigi_%28SSBM%29&diff=509248&oldid=508538 look at this]. Someone has done it [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Ness_%28SSBM%29&diff=510332&oldid=499876 more] [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Fox_%28SSBM%29&diff=510198&oldid=508524 than] [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Falco_%28SSBM%29&diff=510204&oldid=499841 once]. Shouldn't they put a notice on there, telling people that it came from another source? We do that if we take information from Wikipedia, as seen [[Shigesato Itoi|here]], for example. <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[File:John3637881 Signature.png|20px]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 11:18, 18 January 2016 (EST)
:This is nothing new.

Wholesale copying of templates, images, and paragraphs in bulk is most certainly not okay [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ if attribution is not provided].

::Upon further research, it looks like it's all just one guy. I think reporting him to the admins should be a good first step. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Zesty 11:52, 18 January 2016 (EST)

== I hate to bring it up again, but... ==
 
Some Smashpedia pages still have information that is identical to ours, such as [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/wiki/Ness_(SSBM) this]. I specifically remember writing some of the information on that page. [http://supersmashbros.wikia.com/wiki/Captain_Falcon_(SSBM) This] is another page to have information directly taken from our wiki. Someone needs to go over there and make sure all of this stuff is removed. <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[File:John3637881 Signature.png|20px]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 10:48, 10 February 2016 (EST)
:I just let Toomai know, since he dealt with this last time. Looking over it, it seems that it's the same guy. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 13:24, 10 February 2016 (EST)
::K I just let the admins know again. Looked into it and they directly copied both [[Template:Victory/SSBM]] and [[Template:Crowd]] as well as several images/files that I have uploaded. We'll see what happens from here. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 04:15, 12 February 2016 (EST)
