Question: What do I do if I want to move a file without leaving redirect, but it's used on an archived talk page? <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#008833; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #00bb77;">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#eed000; text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #ffd000;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 11:25, 23 November 2015 (EST)
:Preventing a pointless redlink like that is an acceptable reason to edit an archived talk page, I'd say. Especially if the image itself isn't changing, since you're preserving the intent of the archived link.

for rollbacking my talk page. I actually didn't catch that.

:No problem. A good idea if a vandal shows up like that is to open their contributions, which clearly labels which things need rollback for anything they've edited.

:Which 3? If you mean the rendered Brawl character art, I'd say yes. I was going to do it myself in a minute, but you're certainly free to do it while I combine these amiibo categories.

Worked on it some yesterday, I just don't feel it's up to par with how it should be. Any advice on improving it? [[User:Smashedpotatoes|Smashedpotatoes]] ([[User talk:Smashedpotatoes|talk]]) 17:19, 25 November 2015 (EST)
:My best suggestion would be to follow something like [[List of swords]] as a guide. Give a brief intro and description with an interwiki link, then explain how Smash uses it, and if there's enough uses to warrant it, include a gallery.

== Question. ==
So Drilly has been <s>pestering</s> asking me over the IRC to give him back talk privs. As you were the one who removed them in the first place, I am asking you first: should we? <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 20:16, 28 November 2015 (EST)
:I don't see why. He had solidified the point that he was sockpuppeting, and was using his talk page privileges inappropriately. The only reason his talk page privileges weren't blocked in the initial blocking action was to give him a chance to explain himself; as it stands, he has forfeited that right.

== About references... ==
I'm still getting used to the wiki, but I have a question. When it comes to references (whether it be a photo, video, or website), would it be ok to add it to an article if it were... well for example: I uploaded a video on YouTube that I wanted to use as a reference (a highlight reel of a Smash battle on the [[Pirate Ship]] stage) and it involved one of the players glitching through the stage and getting KOed. Would it be alright if I used that video as a reference? I'm unsure if it's OK to do so if it were my own "information" from another source. It's a bit difficult to explain... Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y88w9Cy_K7U
I'm unsure how this glitch happened, but I could check it out at some point unless the glitch is fixed in a newer update.

:It's acceptable to link it as a citation in such a circumstance, yes. Original research isn't necessarily as frowned upon in the context of SmashWiki as it would be on, say, Wikipedia. The context is different.
