Editing Talk:Lightning Kick

==Deletion==
I think we should '''delete''' this and replace it with a disambig page to moveset subpages. If I recall correctly, this page was only really created because, with the Knee Smash, it was the only other normal move with an in-game official name. Now that we have multiple other moves with this property (Cover Fire, Justice Sword, S3), we need to pick which side of the fence to be on - and unlike the knee, I think this falls on the "not notable by itself" side.

:Unless if there is any notability that can be salvaged, I'll '''support''' this. I have played as Zelda a few times, and I simply considered this move as nothing special; just a normal, albeit strong, move. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 13:08, 29 October 2014 (EDT)
:I don't think it is fair to delete this one and keep the Knee Smash, but I '''support''' if both of them are deleted. For me, it is either all or none. [[User:Tepig|Tepig]] ([[User talk:Tepig|talk]]) 13:47, 29 October 2014 (EDT)

:As a note, it is one of the strongest aerials in the game, and also Zelda's strongest move. As stated in the article, it's also among the few aerials which can reliably be used as a KO move. It's also unique in that Zelda's Fair and Bair are simply two variations of the same move. I don't think it should be deleted, and as Tepig hinted to, I also don't think keeping just one of them is right. '''Opposed''' deletion.

::One, use the preview button. Second, I'm '''neutral''' about this. While it is somewhat notable in being one of Zelda's strongest moves, we don't really have that many pages about other character's forward/back aerials. Unless we create pages for them, or we did and I just didn't know about them, then… I don't know what to do with this page. <span style="background-color:orange;border:2px solid blue;border-radius:7px;">[[User:Rtzxy|<span style="color:yellow">'''Rtzxy'''</span>]] [[File:Reflect.jpg|x20px]] [[User talk:Rtzxy|<span style="color:brown">'''''Reflect!!!'''</span>]]</span> 16:06, 7 November 2014 (EST)
:::Um, who says it has to be deleted? Just rename it Zelda (SSBwhatever)/Forward aerial.

::::Or replace it with a disambiguation page, since Zelda has this in every game. --[[User:Menshay|Menshay]] ([[User talk:Menshay|talk]]) 13:08, 8 November 2014 (EST)
:::Yes of course as I said above it would be replaced with "a disambig page to moveset subpages". But the page wouldn't stay in its current form. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Quiet 13:19, 8 November 2014 (EST)
::::I '''oppose''' deletion unless we also delete [[Knee Smash]]. If this deletion passes I'm going to start a deletion request for Knee Smash actually <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]]. Or maybe [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta.]] </small> 13:20, 8 November 2014 (EST)
:::::The knee is far too memetic and notable to be deleted. This isn't, and is exactly why I proposed its deletion. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Awesome 13:22, 8 November 2014 (EST)
::::::I '''support''' this due to the fact that normal attacks generally do not have their own pages. However, the content of the page shouldn't simply be lost; a merge (or split merges) with other pages might be in order.

::::::I '''support''' deletion.  Only the Mario Tornado should have an article and not Zelda's bair and fair moves. --[[User:Tailikku|Tailikku]] ([[User talk:Tailikku|talk]]) 23:49, 21 November 2014 (EST)
:::Of course, I use it, but it doesn't guarantee no further edits. Anyway, since there is info on the move, it makes zero sense deleting the article. [[User:PainLesS|PainLesS]] ([[User talk:PainLesS|talk]]) 10:00, 9 November 2014 (EST)
:::*'''Oppose''': Both [[Knee Smash]] and [[Lightning Kick]] ought to be kept. Both have competitive coverage and in-game special recognition. --[[User:Mr. Guye|Mr. Guye]] ([[User talk:Mr. Guye|talk]]) 13:39, 2 January 2015 (EST)
Darkelf64: I oppose to the deletion since although it may be out of date there are still people who want to learn these things.
::::a strong '''OPPOSE!''' <small>because of Mr. Guye's reasons ([[User:Smashworker101|Smashworker101]] ([[User talk:Smashworker101|talk]]) 17:50, 7 January 2015 (EST))</small>

'''Support''' Lightning Kick is nowhere near as famous as the Knee Smash. In addition, once we made the moveset subpages for these, it will cover a lot more information than a lone article will.

:::Smashworker101, please do not use the <code> &lt;big&gt; </code> tags, as they disrupt the normal spacing between rows of text and it is just obnoxious. As such, I have removed the tags. <span style="font-family:Impact">''[[User:Brawls of fury|<span style="color:#CC5500">BRAWLS</span>]] [[File:BoFSig.png|19px]] OF [[File:BoFSig.png|19px]][[User talk:Brawls of fury|<span style="color:#8A3324">FURY</span>]]''</span> 00:40, 11 January 2015 (EST)

== Names of other non-special moves ==

"Lightning Kick" and "Knee Smash" are both used in the Nintendo Power player's guide for Melee. All the other moves are given names as well (with the exception of edge and floor recovery attacks). Since the two moves I mentioned here are also confirmed on in-game trophies, and Nintendo Power was a part of Nintendo of America, then there's no reason to believe the other move names aren't official as well. I still have the player's guide so I could add the move names to each character page, unless there is some other reason names aren't wanted (because I am wondering why no one has provided them yet - although they did exist on Mewtwo's page at one point).

:This has been a long-standing issue, which I have grown quite sick of. I'm going to end it now by casting a vote-discussion in the forum. What's decided there will be the new standard. By the way, can anyone confirm whether or not the Prima names and the Power names are the same? <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]]&nbsp;[[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 23:28, 22 January 2018 (EST)
