:I apologize for all of those. I probably should have waited a bit longer for the Fire Bow thing. I’ll make sure to leave it up to the admins to close discussions.
:I’m assuming you’re referring to trying to reopen discussion about Ganondorf being a pseudo-clone in Ultimate, but I want to explain myself for that one. I realize that I screwed up last time by making it a vote-based system, so I tried reopening it by not making it a vote and doing the math. The issue was that I intended to archive only the votes, and was planning on making it a real discussion instead of a vote this time. Plus, what we got out of that discussion ended up having Ganondorf’s up tilt added in as a unique move, but keeping his status as a semi-clone, which ended up having him apparently share less than half of his moveset with Falcon. I thought we having a discussion on whether he should keep the semi-clone status or the up tilt as a unique move would’ve made things less confusing on that page.

Tangentially related, and I apologize if there was discussion about this matter has been held elsewhere and I simply missed it, but [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Yusuke_Kitagawa&diff=1226801&oldid=1226781 this edit] was entirely uncalled for.

:There was discussion on Richter and Robin not sharing a voice actor, and that ended with saying that it shouldn’t be included as a trivia point.

::It depends with VAs. Although it is interesting that VAs have voice numerous characters in ''Smash'', that is considered more general, it needs more in relation to ''Smash'' specifically to apply.

== Luigi and Rosalina's FS ==
Do Luigi's and Rosalina's Final Smash page names ''really'' need to be changed? I understand the case for renaming the "Fire Bow" to "Fire Arrow", but I don't see how much it would change the page in their Final Smashes. (Also, when suggesting a merge/move/split, its better to start the discusion or the suggestion may just be removed as no action was taken|I seen that happen before) I mean, yes it could be changed to incorporate both names in the title, but still.

:At what point would he be considered notable enough? I understand ''if'' the admins don’t think he’s notable, but before I remove the split tag, I’m curious as to ''why''. (Don’t worry, I don’t want to reopen discussion. I just want to know the reason) [[User:Lou Cena|Lou Cena]] ([[User talk:Lou Cena#top|talk]]) 17:49, May 23, 2019 (EDT)
== Final pre-block warning ==
You continue to act as if your opinion is desired/required in all discussions. [[User talk:Awesomelink234#SK, about my block|This]] is a very egregious case, where you appear uninvited and unwanted, and proceed to prove a complete lack of knowledge on the topic, thereby derailing the discussion. And as I'm typing this, you're going around several talk pages bumping incomplete discussions with wording that implies you alone will decide when it's concluded. I've also received several complaints from users on how you posture above your authority. You need to watch how you word things, or we're going to have no choice but to start blocking you for being disruptive.

:My apologies. I was bumping them to ask for more input on the discussion before aksing either you or Serpent King if it was okay to move it afterwards. Sorry if my wording gave everybody the wrong idea. [[User:Lou Cena|Lou Cena]] ([[User talk:Lou Cena#top|talk]]) 18:30, June 28, 2019 (EDT)
== Hey, listen ==
Before I go ahead and say this, I'm going to say that this is not an addition to your block warnings from Toomai.
Something I've tended to notice with you is that you jump to conclusions a lot, and you miss a lot of stuff when making edits and commenting on (or creating) discussions. Granted, nobody's perfect, and we don't expect you to be - even I make mistakes and miss stuff from time to time - but, if I may be a bit frank, you do tend to come to the ''wrong'' conclusion at times, and, [[Talk:Peach Bomber#Move|in some cases]], can cause a derail that could have been avoided if all of the details had been noticed the first time. I am entirely assuming good faith here - I, along with the rest of the staff, do not believe in any way that you are here to damage the wiki - but for the sake of the wiki and all of us working on it, it would be appreciated if you slowed down and actually thought about something you're doing before it's done.

== Your general attitude 3 ==
This also doubles as an explanation post for your block.
All the staff here make sure everything is going smoothly on the wiki, and no one is stepping out of line. If they do so repeatedly, then we keep an eye on them. Given [[#Your general attitude|everything]] [[#Your general attitude 2|that]] [[#Final pre-block warning|you've]] [[#Hey, listen|done]], it's almost an understatement to say we've been doing that. You've repeatedly caused problems on the wiki, intentionally or not, and in spite of being warned several times, you continue to do it anyway. There are also certain toxic patterns that have been picked up on, and [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Hero&curid=97261&diff=1265600&oldid=1265291 to know that such assumptions were true] only hammers the nail further. While good faith is still being assumed, and we hope that you are able to grow and change your behavior because of this, you have still negatively affected the wiki in ways that have earned yourself a year block. We do not need a specific offense to occur in order to block someone - we just need to decide that such person is doing more harm than good by being allowed to edit the wiki.
And before anything from you is said in regards to this, attempts to have your block reduced will not be helpful to your case. [[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: blue;">'''the Rurouni'''</span>]] 13:59, July 22, 2019 (EDT)
==Apologies to everybody for everything==
Well, I f*cked up. I don’t know if it’s because I’m stressed from applying for college, if it’s because I’m a piece of human garbage, or I’m just stupid, but the fact of the matter is that I screwed up, and by the time my block ends, I’ll be starting college. And I can’t reduce this block either, so this is almost definitely my last edit here ever. I don’t really have a second chance despite not being infinitely blocked, and that’s probably for the best with all the mistakes I’ve made.
I’m assuming that all of my offenses from the past added up to this, and whether I should be blocked has been a subject of debate has been a part of the discord for a while. [[Template Talk:Symbol|trying to revive a debate because I was unsatisfied]], [[Talk:Heihachi Mishima|making a ridiculous claim when I lost a debate]], [[Talk:Peach Bomber|Assuming a wrong conclusion based on another wrong conclusion]], [[Talk:Hookshot and Clawshot|not watching my words when bumping a discussion, inadvertently making me look like I’m backseat modding]], making an unintentionally racist April Fools joke and probably so much more I’m missing. I want to apologize for every single thing I’ve done. I might’ve gotten a little cocky when I suggested to add certain alternate costumes to the infobox (though the tabber wasn’t my idea; all credit for the tabber goes to Cookies and Creme), and then that proposal passed.
I’ve added some minor trivia points that work, fixed some grammar, revised some tables, and reworded some things to make them less jarring (at least in my eyes), but that doesn’t excuse every single mistake I made. I mean zero harm to this wiki, and have been acting in what I thought was good faith, but it looks like I accidentally caused too much trouble. I tried to solve every issue that an admin warns me about every time, but each time I solve one issue, I f*ck up something else. Even when I actively avoided edit warring (I think I’ve only done it two times ever), I still somehow found a way to f*ck up. I am sincerely sorry to everybody on this wiki, and for every article or talk page I have negatively affected, and for f*cking up something every time I fixed another.

:If you truly won't be back, I'd like to thank you for the good edits you have made. You are definitely not a piece of human garbage, and your productivity will be appreciated. I know this probably isn't the place for me to say this, but I'd rather not send Lou out on a bad note.

::::Never thought I’d be back to editing, even if I’ve been reading this wiki a lot since Banjo came out. I want to clarify 2 things, 1 to the IP, and one to clarify that this is not a sock to decrease my ban.
::::1. Regardless of how long my block is, I was actually planning on leaving for a while. If anything this block is a failsafe to let me focus on real life. I have a ton of classes and college prep essays, and I’ve had mental health problems from stress. While I started put as a somewhat decent user, real life problems have been slowly driving me insane, and I need to deal with these first. I’m staying off of editing because I have a life that needs fixing.
::::2. While this IP does show typical behavior of a sock trying to decrease my ban, I have proof that they are not. [https://www.whatismyip.com/ip-address-lookup/ Checking this site] shows that I live in Southern California, while said IP is in San Francisco. I know I wanted a decrease on my first ban after April Fools, but this ban is 100% deserved, and I will not ask for it to be decreased. [[User:Lou Cena|Lou Cena]] ([[User talk:Lou Cena#top|talk]]) 01:40, September 13, 2019 (EDT)
==The debate is back==
:::::That [[Template talk:Symbol|discussion]] has been brought back in full force and we could have used your draft forum. Though since we're back to where we were, repeating old arguments, I wanted your proposal to be revised into more of a voting proposal than a debate. But since you're blocked, you can't do much of anything. But when you're unblocked, could you format that draft to include votes for the ellipsis and the votes for the Battlefield symbol? And I'm sorry that I never got that message about your block. [[User:SeanWheeler|SeanWheeler]] ([[User talk:SeanWheeler|talk]]) 00:44, February 19, 2020 (EST)
