Talk:Block

I smell a merge, of the block and "?" block articles with this one. If I get enough support, I'll move both articles here. My argument is that the two articles that exist are already short, so a merge would help with clean-up. Blue Ninjakoopa^(Talk) 11:25, 31 May 2012 (EDT)

Move

Weak support per tag. This page discusses very little about blocks themselves, for what that's worth. Nyargleblargle (Contribs) 12:08, 24 July 2016 (EDT)

Oppose per Serpent. Disaster Flare (talk) 19:38, 25 July 2016 (EDT)

Neutral I'm leaning to oppose , i can see where people are coming from Poultry(talk) the God-Slayer 21:36, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

Disambiguation

Per Template:Disambig2, a term with more than two uses should have a dedicated disambiguation page. In this instance, "Block" can refer to:

• the recurring breakable blocks in Smash stages as listed in this article,
• Shielding, or
• the blocks Steve can place in his neutral special, Mine / Craft / Create Block.

I have found no evidence that anyone has even considered such a disambiguation since Steve's release in October 2020, even though I personally get confused by the lack of redirects or disambiguation constantly. Should action be taken here? I would personally make this article into a disambiguation page and move this article to something like "Block (Stage element)."

Split

Not saying to get rid of this page, but I personally support splitting the subsections into their own articles. For example, Brick Blocks appear in several parts of Mario-related locations in Smash Bros., yet they have hardly any information within their own section on this page. What about the explanation of design origins, better clarity of which Super Smash Bros. games they appear in, and so forth?

And some, like Drop Blocks, are unique to Super Smash Bros. but don't have their own articles. If these are given their own articles, it would be easier to document their connections to Super Smash Bros. and detailed Origin sections that correspond to their appearances.
