Merge or otherwise...[edit]

The status of this page was opened up approximately one month ago. It was suggested that it be merged with Professional smasher. However, notable examples of smashers are included on the page already. Therefore, I open this page up to a discussion not only on merging, but also on deletion as well. It may be impractical for a true merge to take place, and this article will likely remain a stub for its duration of time on SmashWiki. Discuss. DarkFox01DF01Sig.pngwill go it alone from here. 14:20, 27 December 2014 (EST)

Late, but this is definitely a page that can stand on its own. "The five gods" is an extremely prominent term that is used often in Melee discussion, and this article can explain why these players are called the gods, how the term came to be, and the history of it all. There's enough material for a standalone article, such as John and tires don exits. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 09:10, 4 February 2015 (EST)

I agree. Dots (talk) Link OoT Dots.PNG The Calvin and Hobbes 09:40, 4 February 2015 (EST)
Yeah, even as someone more on the periphery of the competitive scene I can see that this could be expanded enough to stand alone. Miles (talk) 10:50, 4 February 2015 (EST)
I don't support the merge either, mostly due to this reasoning also --LoS PPS KoRos (talk) 13:24, 23 March 2015 (EDT)

What is 4/5 gods[edit]

This needs some filler text to explain itself, or it needs removed, because looking at it, I have no idea what the section is supposed to be. SerpentKing (talk) 20:05, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

I assume the idea was to list tournaments where 4/5 of the "gods" were in attendance. Miles (talk) 20:17, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
Why? Also if this is allowed, it needs a better name. SerpentKing (talk) 20:20, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
Would just "4 out of 5 gods" work?--Dinodomain (talk) 20:26, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
No, it doesn't describe what the section is. SerpentKing (talk) 20:28, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
I do think the section is a bit unnecessary; that said, there's nothing explicitly wrong with a long section header so long as it's clear and there isn't an equally-useful but more concise option available. Miles (talk) 20:31, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
I second that this is unnecessary, especially considering the section with all 5 gods above it, which I have no problem with. SerpentKing (talk) 20:33, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
