Editing Talk:Machinima

==Deletion==
'''Very Weak Delete.''' We'll never be able to include all of the Smash machinimas out there, and "notable" isn't very specific. Imagine how many people will add their newborn machinimas to this page. <span style="color:#4CBB17">--Posted by</span> [[User:Pikamander2|<span style="color:#007FFF">Pikamander2</span>]] <small>[[User Talk:Pikamander2|<span style="color:#007FFF">(Talk)</span>]]</small> at 17:56, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Hmmmm, well the original idea was to only include the well known machinimas, I mean its obvious one could never list all the Smash Bros. machinima, and I do agree on the notable being indistinct. How about rather than a delete of the entire page, a simple deletion of the list, and then provide a link to say machinima.com?

:That could work. There are a lot of Smash machinimas out there, so it does make sense to have an article about it. <span style="color:#4CBB17">--Posted by</span> [[User:Pikamander2|<span style="color:#007FFF">Pikamander2</span>]] <small>[[User Talk:Pikamander2|<span style="color:#007FFF">(Talk)</span>]]</small> at 21:33, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
We're going to need this page.  There's a joint effort that is going to happen this month with us and the Fanon wiki.  It will become apparent soon.

Okay, no one has spoken on this subject in a while (kinda). Should the list just be taken down, or what?[[User:IrvThaSol|IrvThaSol a.k.a Ungod]] <small>([[User talk: IrvThaSol|talk to me]])</small>
:No. Read C. Hawk's comment. Although, I'm unaware of what he means. When I showed the site's link on the main page talk page (apparently nobody had heard of it until then), I took it from some random user on my talk page. It really doesn't look like a fan site, but like a fictonal site. I haven't seen it since then, so can someone clear up this "joint effort" subject for me?

I saw that, but I too am still not in full understanding as to what this joint effort means. C. Hawk if you see this discussion, could you please explain the joint effort further?

:Okay, now someone tell me why they saw it fit to create links to non-existant pages of specific machinima. What ever, I'll just right that by removing the brackets. No objections?

== The list is getting excessive. ==

I'm not a notability expert, but I'm pretty sure that the list of machinimas can be pared down easily. As has been said before, having a list at all may be the problem.

To be honest, the only ones that I think are remotely notable are Smashtasm, The Last Tier War, and Wolf's Retarded Mission (and others by those creators).  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 01:48, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Probably only the first three are good. I've never heard of any of the others.'''[[User:Smorekingxg456|<span style="color:#5F9EA0">Smoreking</span>]]<small><sup>[[User Talk:Smorekingxg456#Top|<span style="color:#00FF00">(T)</span>]]</sup></small><small><sub> [[Special:Contributions/Smorekingxg456|(c)]]</sub></small>''' 22:57, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Why only link to the most famous ones? Just because it's not as well-known doesn't automatically mean it's not as good. --[[User:Arceus3000|Arceus3000]] ([[User talk:Arceus3000|talk]]) 19:14, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Smashtasm is good to stay, Dexterboy's machinimas and Brawlgasm are as well (mostly because of Beans), The Last Tier War is good to stay.  MALR is a stretch, but he's the only one I know of that doesn't use voice acting for most of his/her machinima, so I guess that's sorta notable.  I've never heard of any other machinima creators on the list.[[User:L33tSilvie|<span style="color:gold;">L33t</span>]] [[User talk:L33tSilvie|<span style="color:silver;">Silvie</span>]] <sup><span style="color:Green;">[[Special:Contributions/L33tSilvie|I see wat u did thar...</span></sup>]]

== Another Machinima ==

There is another Machinima called The Legend of Olimar. It's made by ElectroBlade. Maybe if you're still posting Machinima's you could add it, but if you don't want to, I get why: If you post this then you'll have to post every single Machinima ever created, and all that stuff. But you could at least watch to see if it's good enough. But I'm not going to. For two reasons: #1I don't want two, and #2 I don't really know how.[[Special:Contributions/67.70.92.36|67.70.92.36]] 04:34, March 9, 2010 (UTC)

There's another Machinima called "Brawl Wars", I don't know who it's made by because I didn't look long enough for his name, but it's not being represented by Machinima yet, besides it's decently funny like Smashtasm.--[[User:Ryou Seiji|Ryou Seiji]] ([[User talk:Ryou Seiji|talk]]) 20:39, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

== A typical Machinima Scene... ==

Okay I really don't understand how that picture looks any more like a machinima then any other brawl snapshot. I do know that it happens to be a picture from Smashtasm, but for all I know it could be an example of Meta Knight's idle animation. I think we could find a better picture for Machinima than that. I just didn't want to randomly remove I picture without any reason so I'll just see everyone's reaction.[[User:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Orange;">highway</span>]] [Image:highwaypumpypic.jpg|20px]] [[User talk:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Red;">pumpy</span>]] 01:06, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
:<s>It honestly doesn't matter, seeing how this page is fanon and will be deleted shortly</s>, but it does somewhat resemble an average dialogue scene.

* I agree with H.P. Anyway, I do think that we could et a better image. It is a dialouge scene, but you wouldn't be able to tell if it was one or not based on the picture.--[[User:Qim1|Qim1]] ([[User talk:Qim1|talk]]) 23:56, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

== silver crisis page ==

there is a poplar machinima called silver crisis on YT, and i was wondering if it was OK it make a page about it. smashtasm and the last tier war have their own, so why not silver crisis? <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:Zelda101|Zelda101]] ([[User talk:Zelda101|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Zelda101|contribs]]) 7:12, July 27, 2010 (UTC)</small>

:Drakon64, fan pages do not belong on SmashWiki. Instead, take them to [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/SmashWikia SmashWikia], because it now focuses more on Smash fanon.

It's fanon. If you read [[SmashWiki:What SmashWiki is not#SmashWiki is not fanon|this]], you can see that machinimas should '''NOT''' be ignored. The only fanon thing allowed here is PM.
