:In regards to Sheik, however, given how [[Dark Samus (SSBU)|inconsistent]] the Smash Blog seems to be, I think that it's very likely that this was an error, and that it will be fixed later; this is just speculation on my part, and we could very well see something consistent later.

::Given the earlier mention that one of Zelda's trophies in ''Smash 4'' refers to Sheik as a "young man" (and the avoidance of any pronouns in Sheik's tips), it's likely that NoA uses masculine pronouns when they're trying to hide that Sheik is Zelda, and feminine pronouns when they're not. For what it's worth, although Japanese ''does'' have gendered pronouns, it's very easy and natural to write while avoiding them entirely (this also happened with [[Sukapon]]'s Smash Blog entry). I doubt that it'll be changed, though, and the final game will probably use the same guidelines as ''Smash 4''.

:::I'm belaboring a point here, but the line from the trophy description is that Zelda "takes on the guise of a young man named Sheik." This is not hiding anything, it is explicitly stating that Sheik is a male persona used as a disguise by Zelda. You can say that the in-universe character of Sheik as acted by Zelda in OoT is male. You cannot say the out-of-universe Nintendo character called Sheik is male, since she is just Zelda in diguise, and no official material has ever been inconsistent on this point.

::Official references to Sheik as male were also a one-time thing, within the script and promotional materials of OoT itself, and never again after that. As I said, what people cite as recent official references to Sheik as male are entirely misconstrued references to the male ''persona'' of Sheik as acted out by Zelda in OoT (such as the Zelda trophy description).

Sheik is most likely still female (although there are theories that zelda changes gender when transforming), but is often referred to as male due to the majority of ingame characters thinking that sheik is male. [[User:ProLink|ProLink]] ([[User talk:ProLink|talk]]) 09:08, 20 December 2018 (EST)

people in the game think Sheik is male, like pit. and people in the real world think "he" is male, "he" is in quotation marks because Sheik is female because sheik is Zelda in disguise, also I never saw theory like that prolink. --[[Special:Contributions/98.127.69.195|98.127.69.195]] 00:40, May 27, 2019 (EDT)

== DLC characters on Character chart? ==
Can someone tell me what happened to the character chart? Why does it have those four characters? Is someone trolling, cause I can't find anything on this. I must assume someone mistaken a leak as fact. Can someone conform this for me? I am greatly confused. [[:User:Cleb13frede|Caleb13frede]] ([[User talk:Caleb13frede|talk]]) 9:42 May 6th, 2019 (PDT)

== Character artwork ==
I distinctly remember this section had official artwork of the Mother 3 cast. Anyone know what happened to it? I know M3 was Japan only but it still makes sense to have various franchises represented in this section, since it is about Ultimate and the EarthBound series is growing in popularity. Why exactly was it removed? Or was it actually unofficial artwork?[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: Supatoad64Sig.jpg|20px ]] 00:15, June 9, 2019 (EDT)

::Thanks for pointing out my sig image, I had a feeling my image was too large and it should be fixed now. The page can be found here[[https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Super_Smash_Bros._Ultimate&diff=1151033&oldid=1151031]] which contains an image which seems to have been deleted named "Lucas Ultimate Artwork.jpg" A later page with the image removed said the artwork was not used officially so that may be the reason why it was removed.[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: MK64ToadCSP.jpg|20px ]] 21:10, June 9, 2019 (EDT)
:::Oh, that thing. The 8-bit Mother 3 thing, right? That was removed because it wasn't a part of the whole collaborative Smash Ultimate countdown.

::::I see now thanks for pointing that out. I didn't notice the section was focusing on the countdown (I just recently joined, which kinda explains why my original sig image was huge). I thought it was removed due to M3 being released in Japan only, outside of the fan translation.[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: MK64ToadCSP.jpg|20px ]] 23:06, June 9, 2019 (EDT)
