Dude, no.
Your vote does not go in the half vote section. Please read the Smash Arena Rules. Doc tor Pain  99   20:01, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * I believe the half vote rule applies if someone purposely filled in their vote incorrectly to be a half vote. Casting your vote as a half vote while doing the voting procedure correctly is acceptable I believe. Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:06, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * No it isn't. Read rule 10. Doc tor  Pain  99  [[file:DoctorPain99.png|19px]] 20:07, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Read what I said. The rule is there so someone doesn't intentionally put their votes in half votes thinking doing so they won't have to sign their votes or something. I see absolutely nothing wrong with putting a vote in the half votes as long as you vote properly. It's their vote, they can put it in half votes if they want their vote to count as a half vote (such as in an instance where they don't feel too strongly about either side). Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:19, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Do not tell me to read what you said when you obviously did not read the rule carefully enough. It specifically says, "nor is it acceptable to want your vote to be worth half", meaning you cannot put your votes in the half vote section just because you want your vote to count as half. Also, it's Toomai's decision, not yours (or mine).  Doc tor  Pain  99  [[file:DoctorPain99.png|19px]] 20:23, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Familiar with the term "spirit of the rule"? The rule's intention is to prevent people from intentionally voting improperly by putting their votes in half votes, not to prevent those who feel their vote should be an half vote from voting as such. And why should people be forbidden to put their votes in half votes if they vote correctly? What harm does it do? Simply saying "the rule says so" does not answer that. Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:27, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * No it isn't, it does not in any way say "Do not intentionally break a rule to get a vote in the half-vote section" it says "Do not put your vote in the half vote section." Period, no exceptions. Also, if you would like the rule to be changed ask the man himself and don't get into a pointless dispute with another user about it. Doc tor  Pain  99  [[file:DoctorPain99.png|19px]] 20:33, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * As Emmett once said "One thing that I think I accidentally beat into the culture of SmashWiki is the ideas that policies are laws that form the backbone that must always be followed or else. This is not the case at all. Wikis are based on discussion and consensus, and blindly following rules (sometimes even to the point of harming the wiki just to be "by the book") is stupid."


 * I believe you are doing this right now, as your sole reasoning for enforcing the exact lettering of this rule is "Toomai said so" which itself does not refute anything I said. I already brought this up on the Smash Arena page, but keep what Emmett said in mind, and when someone questions your enforcement of a rule, provide more than "X says so". Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:53, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * My position is here. Move any additional comments there. Doc tor  Pain  99  [[file:DoctorPain99.png|19px]] 20:55, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * The above comment was me telling you why you should avoid blindly following and enforcing every rule, especially if you're unable to provide justification for the rule, which is why I posted here and not there. Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 21:09, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Let's stop bombarding this guy's talk page already. If you really need to talk to me about that, go to IRC. Doc tor  Pain  99  [[file:DoctorPain99.png|19px]] 21:11, 29 May 2011 (EDT)

 * Like what? You tell me what I 'lied' about, and I'll change the paragraph accordingly. Toast  Ultimatum  Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  17:48, 1 October 2011 (EDT)
 * The first match did feature items (but yes I won)
 * You didn't lose that match where you was Jiggly; you picked Mushroomy Kingdom and had items on, so I left
 * The match after that was item-free, and I won
 * The match after that one had items and the connection broke


 * That's all I think.--FalcoHeadSSBB.png <font color=#00006E>P <font color=#0000A5>S <font color=#0000DC>I <font color=#0000FF>W <font color=#0037FF>o <font color=#006EFF>lf  (<font color=#FF0000>T • <font color=#FF0000>C  • <font color=#FF0000>E ) 06:10, 2 October 2011 (EDT)


 * OK, I'll change a few things. Also, the connection didn't break on the final match, I disconnected because I was confused at the appearance of items when I set them to None. Toast  Ultimatum  Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  06:27, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

 * Pseudo-Pause, L+R+A+START. That's the way I disconnected. Toast  Ultimatum  Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  06:48, 2 October 2011 (EDT)
 * But the match didn't end in a 'No contest' thingy.--FalcoHeadSSBB.png <font color=#00006E>P <font color=#0000A5>S <font color=#0000DC>I <font color=#0000FF>W <font color=#0037FF>o <font color=#006EFF>lf  (<font color=#FF0000>T • <font color=#FF0000>C  • <font color=#FF0000>E ) 06:54, 2 October 2011 (EDT)
 * That's odd. I didn't notice, because straight after I quit, I went onto the IRC to talk about it. Either way, I definately did the Pseudo-Pause, L+R+A+START quit. Toast  Ultimatum  Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  06:56, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

Moving
I found "List of SSBB music" far better than "SSBB Music" tbh. Shouldn't you discuss it first?-- <font color=#00006E>P <font color=#0000A5>S <font color=#0000DC>I <font color=#0000FF>W <font color=#0037FF>o <font color=#006EFF>lf  (<font color=#FF0000>T • <font color=#FF0000>C  • <font color=#FF0000>E ) 05:15, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Yeah. Every page starts with the same four words: "This is a list". So why move away from page titles that start "List of"? :/  Penguin  of  Death   05:17, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
 * The reason I originally called the articles List of SSBB Music (Franchise series) is because I based the name upon List of Trophies (Franchise series), but the thing is, the trophies articles actually are a list, while these articles aren't really a list, more a collaboration of sub-sections. I'll agree having List of in front looks nicer, but the new title is easier to type for people searching for the articles, and makes more sense. If you really think it's necessary, I'll revert back to the old titles, though it seems weird referring to something that isn't a list as a list. As for the opening line, I think I was wrong to put that as well. Toast  Ultimatum  Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  05:27, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
 * The articles you created are lists, as they list the songs. You could make redirects for the new titles you just made up. I think you should revert it.--WolfHeadSSBB.png  P S I Wolf  ( T  •  C  •  E ) 05:31, 19 October 2011 (EDT)

Music pages
The infoboxes should always come after the header on the same subject. Miles ( talk)  14:45, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
 * PenguinOfDeath was the one that moved the infoboxes, but there's definately reason. If they go below the header, then they look like this, which does not look good compared to this.  Toast  Wii U Logo Transparent.png ltimatum Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  14:49, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Miles: Why?  Penguin  of  Death   15:40, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Ease of editibility is one factor. If I want to edit the infobox for "Title/Ending (Super Mario World)" I should be able to get to it under the header for the same song. Removing the redundant "title" line from the infobox should reduce its height to make that less clunky. Miles ( talk)   15:02, 24 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Sure it's easier to edit, but should the editspace look nicer, or should the article look nicer. I'd much prefer the article to look nicer. Even if you could make it so it doesn't overlap with the other sub-sections, it still looks nicer exactly on the line. I guess I'm not the admin, but that's how I feel. Also, I think the title section looks good for balancing. Toast  Wii U Logo Transparent.png ltimatum Transparent Swadloon.png Complaints Box  16:04, 24 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Miles: As Toast said, it looks better on the line than just below, and it's not about what's easier to edit, it's about what looks better on the page, and, tbh, it really doesn't make that much difference to editing.  Penguin  of  Death   16:51, 24 October 2011 (EDT)

super smash bros. 4
what do you think the next smash bros. game should be called????--Thejfh1999 (talk) 19:57, 1 November 2011 (EDT)
 * I like the whole idea of the Wii U game being called Super Smash Bros. Wii U Logo Transparent.pngse, and while Dimensions seems a common title for a 3DS game, Super Smash Bros. Dimensions fits well with Wii U Logo Transparent.pngse. Otherwise, something like Knockout or Cataclysm.

Hey...
Why did you just vandalise? RickTommy (talk) 06:35, 14 November 2011 (EST)

Really?
"I do so much on this wiki but get nothing in return!"? What do you expect to "get in return"? I've done way more here and I get nothing "in return" either, so I don't know why you're complaining.

Link to the policy that they are violating, and explain how they are violating it. Simply saying "this is inappropriate use of a talk page" does little to help the user learn. Omega  Tyrant   08:32, 22 November 2011 (EST)

 * Technically, that is a policy here, but I haven't gotten into trouble over it. If I'm explicitly told I MUST change it by a user of higher status than I am, then I'll probably have to alter it, but right now I seem to be 'getting away with it'.

Hey toast, can you become a user on my wiki Cherrim  98  Talk   08:06, 6 December 2011 (EST) its randomvideogames.wikia.com
 * Your Wiki is a bit difficult to work on, as it doesn't seem to have any particular topic, just anything to do with games. I am pretty busy doing work on both SmashWiki and Game & Watch Wiki, and they are of a bit more use to the internet. Additionally, Wikia is blocked at my School, where I edit a lot, and I'm generally against Wikia anyway. I only use it for the Robot Wars Wiki.
