On SmashWiki, User pages serve as a page that the user in question can customize to their liking. User pages can be used as a form of describing yourself, or "introducing" themselves to the wiki. However, while user pages usually are meant for the user itself to customize, there are some restrictions as the what material users can put on there.

User talk pages are where other users are meant to contact you. Note that this is not a place for you to start discussion. Content on user pages should generally be wiki related, though brief conversations about out-of-wiki matters are allowed (for example, requesting a user to Brawl them), though they should should be kept short (generally less than 3 posts from each user). As with all talk pages, users must adhere to all behavioral policies, such as [[SW:NPA]]. And like user pages, pornographic or otherwise inappropriate images/videos are prohibited. Comments should not be removed from your user talk page or edited, however, unless it contains inappropriate images/videos, or links to sites containing them. If there is a comment on your Userpage that you do not wish to see, it is recommended that you archive your talk page. Also, comments are to be kept on the same talk page that the began on. In other words, if someone comments on your talk page, reply on your talk page, not theirs. This keeps conversations in the same place so that they are easier to keep track of.
