:How long would it need to have last in order to stop a stalemated discussion? Would users new to the discussion be needed to participate in it to prevent stopping the discussion? Also, because it "ended" in a stalemate, how long until the discussion could be resumed? These were just some thoughts I had when reading the 3rd example.

::Stalemated would mean multiple days with neither side being able to come to an agreement. Having new users come in could (and, in most cases, ''would'') only add fuel to the fire and make it spread more. Restarting a closed discussion is always a tricky thing to do, [[Talk:Hammer (move)#Move (2)|as has been shown before]] ([[Template talk:Symbol/Archive 1|multiple]] [[Template talk:Symbol|times]]), but the best course of action, to me, would be to only start it up again if one could add something ''new'' to the discussion, as there is little point in starting up a dispute only with repeated information; this same logic can be applied to bringing in new users to these discussions as well.

::I define a stalemate as a dispute which both sides are evenly match as far as arguments go, neither of them able to contribute any new points (just continually parroting) for several days.

It's been a few weeks with no complaints on the new version, so I think this is done. Updating. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Golden 11:39, July 8, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== Article Stolen? == | |||
I created an account about a week ago and was going to try to edit the a new page, but because this was like a trial account I was required to do at least possibly 10 edits and wait 7 days until my account could be fully-used on Saturday, August 7th, 2019. I've done some edits in the sandbox with one in particular is CUSH, a friend and rival I know about which I would write from scratch to write down his article page in the sandbox of everything smash related. Today, when my account was ready, I had tried to start a new article on CUSH, but the article was taken by [[User:Thegameandwatch]] who had used the exact same fonts ({{Sm|CUSH}}) and handwritten notes I wrote in the sandbox I had used before around the 22nd of August, 2 days before my account was fully-used. The article were the same here but in a different link: {{Sm|Cush}}. Also he also shows in his contributions that he visited the sandbox page I had created into the page he purposely created as if he created himself. [[User:DreaM]] 15:31, August 24, 2019 (EST) | |||
:So it appears as though the issue here is that another user took your concept article and copy-pasted it into a smasher article before you were able to. You did not explain this very well on Cookie's talk page, which is why I didn't understand the issue at the time. I suggest that you take this up with the user in question, but it's hard to say what should be done about this since this is something that hasn't really happened before. In future, now that you are able to create articles, I suggest that you put smasher articles you're constructing into user subpages (which you can do by naming the page User:{your username here}/{smasher name here}. Once you are satisfied with how the article is, you can move it to Smasher:{smasher name here}. In future, please take care to more clearly explain the issue you are having, as we can't really help you if you don't. As for the 2 articles existing, since they are duplicate, one should be deleted, which style would be more appropriate for the smasher's article title in your opinion?
