Forum:Include voice actors on specific games' character articles' infoboxes

Strange title, I know, but I couldn't really come up with a better one. Anyways, an issue I noticed with specific game articles for characters is that they lack voice actors. I had never noticed they were missing. Voice actors are only mentioned through the respective character's general article. (Ex: Ganondorf instead of Ganondorf (SSBM)) I searched around and I haven't found any discussion pertaining to this issue, so I figured I might bring it up here. Currently, on specific games' character articles, voice actors are only ever mentioned in trivia points regarding the voice actor itself, which are extremely uncommon. A problem that could potentially be brought up is that infoboxes would become too large, however, that doesn't really apply here. There is a ton of space available below these infoboxes that adding voice actors wouldn't really present a size issue.

tl;dr: Character article infoboxes are missing voice actors. We should add them. Pokebub (talk) 04:12, 16 October 2018 (EDT)

 * Support Where the information is known I see no reason not to add it. That said, do different regions/languages have different voice actors? – Emmett  06:51, 16 October 2018 (EDT)
 * Some do. Mostly characters that have dialogue, like Sonic in Smash 4.  Voqéo T  07:14, 16 October 2018 (EDT)

Eh, weak support. It wouldn’t hurt anything, but I see no reason it needs to be. 72.133.91.93 08:02, 16 October 2018 (EDT) Blueflame105

Support as long as it's contained to only the Smash series Some characters have many VAs outside of smash, and I don't want the list to be over long and pointless like that.  Serpent   King  09:45, 16 October 2018 (EDT)
 * Of course. Outside voice actors would be outside the scope of the wiki and wouldn't make sense to include on specific game articles anyways. Pokebub (talk) 12:09, 16 October 2018 (EDT)

Let's go for it! I support this one and I love character articles with voice actors like Master Hand (Xander Mobus), Sonic (Roger Craig Smith), and Bowser Jr. (Caety Sagoian). Dragonfirebreath25 (talk) 10:39, 16 October 2018 (EDT)
