I must say, you have done quite well in editing so far, both in volume and for being able to handle yourself in disputes. Have you considered [[SmashWiki:Why create an account?|creating an account]] instead of anonymously editing?

Also a side thing I want to note involving your links to exterior sites for descriptions such as spinning backfists, spread-eagle poses and the like; in my opinion, I think we should have as little of these animation descriptions as possible unless its something extremely unknown (eg. Ryu's back throw being a tomoe nage). It was most obvious in this:

As you can see, the blue links clutter out actual links within the wiki and are linking to a lot of non smash-related articles. This is just my own constructive criticism; if you want to keep adding links like that, by all means keep doing so, but try not to overload descriptive words with links to an example. It's still all really good work! [[User:Archrelico|Archrelico]] ([[User talk:Archrelico|talk]]) 12:16, 27 August 2017 (EDT)

:I'm on board with your "''All KO percentages are calculated from the middle of Final Destination unless otherwise stated, with the respective game version listed beside each number''" idea that also utilizes each version's respective logo to represent the percentages because, funnily enough, I used the 3DS and Wii U symbols because I also found my original wording to be too cluttered. However, Toomai was against using the logos for some odd reason and undid that edit to {{SSB4|Luigi}}'s page, so I instead used "''3DS'' version / ''Wii U'' version" as a shorthand description for each verison. If you guys can come to a consensus on how to better format the percentages for each version, I'll definitely help out with implementing it.
:As for the non-Smash-related links, I implemented them in order to provide to additional context to the descriptions. I would prefer to keep the NIWA-related links because of how the Smash series is related to numerous series. However, I'm fine with removing any non-NIWA links for the sake of reducing clutter. As for the move descriptions, I'm also on board with trimming them down, but would prefer retaining any specifically named attacks (ex. spinning backfist, flying kick, tomoe nage, etc.) for the sake of keeping the descriptions encyclopedic.
:With all of that being said, I really appreciate the advice. :) [[Special:Contributions/173.171.36.66|173.171.36.66]] 20:19, 27 August 2017 (EDT)
