Template talk:For3ds

Wait, I don't get it. What do you mean "link to these as redirects"? VinLAURiA (talk) 21:06, 17 June 2014 (EDT)

Deletion
Can't add the template myself because the page is protected, but I say we should delete this and forwiiu. We don't have these for any other Smash game, so why should these be any different? I know they're already used on some pages, but we could just replace the template with the text on those pages. Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer (talk) 14:50, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * It's a useful shortcut, which is a completely typical and acceptable reason to use a template. Miles ( talk)   14:59, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * By that logic, shouldn't we have shortcut templates for the other games too? Or do these get a pass because their names are longer? Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer  (talk) 15:01, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * I'd much rather the wiki makes shortcuts for the other games instead. For smash 4 as a whole, probably just a template:smash 4 instead of ssb4 could distinguish it from the character redirects. 72.219.72.215 15:45, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * The payoff is less worth it for the shorter titles. This and its Wii U counterparts are more of a special case than something I would advise extending to other game titles. Miles ( talk)   15:50, April 8, 2021 (EDT)

Oppose. In my opinion it's much easier typing out any other Smash title than "Super Smash Bros. for 3DS" or "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U". The shortcuts are also especially helpful for Smasher and tournament articles. Cookies Creme  15:58, April 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * Oppose - it makes typing the entire thing easier, and I certainly messed up once or twice trying to type entire thing manually. Also per Miles. Superbound (talk) 11:48, April 10, 2021 (EDT)
 * Oppose - The reason Smash 4 has these shortcuts while Smash 64, Melee, Brawl and Ultimate don't is because Smash 4 is split into different versions, one on the Wii U and one on the 3DS. Of course Ultimate doesn't need this kind of template because it's exclusive to the Switch, so there shouldn't be any need for a . SeanWheeler (talk) 16:49, April 10, 2021 (EDT)
