I will brawl anyone that challenges me, regardless of their skill level. If you want to Brawl me, contact me here or on the IRC. If you wish, you can also ask me for my Wii code (to exchange vault data). If you do brawl me, be sure to have tourney rules set unless noted otherwise. I'm semi-active on IRC, and due to my inconsistent sleeping patterns, you can find me on there in the most unusual of hours.

If there's something you wish to speak to me in private with, and cannot catch me on IRC (or cannot use IRC for whatever reason), you can contact me on Skype and MSN (which you can ask here for the addresses of).

Autoconfirmed

Unless it's changed since I became autoconfirmed, you do have to become autoconfirmed to move pages here. I originally joined this wiki with the two purposes of voting in the SA and moving The Flop Block, but I couldn't do the latter while I was not autoconfirmed. Granted, I became autoconfirmed a long time ago, but I've never seen any changes be made to the criteria. If there have been changes, let me know. Toast ltimatum 11:21, 31 August 2012 (EDT)

I've could of sworn the move page option was available for my non autoconfirmed test account, but alas, I was mistaken. Omega Tyrant 11:26, 31 August 2012 (EDT)

Question

How do you move a page or an image without leaving a redirect? Bandit 08:08, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

There were be a clickable option saying "Leave a redirect behind". If you don't want to leave a redirect, uncheck it. Omega Tyrant 08:14, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

For me, there's no option saying "Leave a redirect behind". Is it only accessible to admins, or is there something wrong with my account? Bandit 08:18, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

It was previously accessible to admins only, but as I recall, users were giving that option so admins wouldn't have unnecessary redirects to delete. It seems that has been changed though, as I just checked in with Garo, who does not have that option either. Omega Tyrant 09:08, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

I don't think the suppressredirect right was ever handed to non-admins in the past. It might be a useful thing for autoconfirmed users to have I guess; you can make a proposal if you think likewise. Toomai Glittershine The Frivolous 09:42, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

I remember there being a big discussion about it, as many users were creating useless redirects when they were fixing capitalisation in page titles that weren't proper nouns. I may be mixing it up with users gaining the ability to move images though. Omega Tyrant 09:49, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

Zair

The term Zair is definitely more widespread, that's the term I would always use, but I still don't think we can on the wiki. From my experience, any instances of "A button attack" or "Up B" have to be changed to non-specific names for the sakes of the sideways Wii Remote, so Zair should be the same, especially as zair only applies to one control scheme. I would also note that further down the page, Toon Link (SSBB) refers to the attack as a Grab Air with zair in parentheses. Toast ltimatum 20:08, 5 September 2012 (EDT)

I would have to disagree in this case. While "up special" is fully recognisable, flows well, and is often used instead of "up b", it's not the case here. I never see "grab air" used instead of "zair", and "grab air" itself sounds rather awkward. Zair flows a lot better and is a lot more recognisable, and while there are other controller types, the GCN controller is still the most commonly used controller. Omega Tyrant 20:19, 5 September 2012 (EDT)

What's Zair? I've never heard of it. Bandit 20:24, 5 September 2012 (EDT)
I had no idea or ever heard of Zair until now, tbh. Bandit 20:28, 5 September 2012 (EDT)

It's a term more often used by competitive players. Officially it is called a tether, though that is a poor shorthand name since it can also refer to several up specials and two side specials. Mr. Anontalk 20:29, 5 September 2012 (EDT)
