:The section to remove is the origin game column which also has a brief mention where the artwork originated. We're not removing the images themselves, that would be absurd.

::I was under the impression that the origins and artwork would be relocated to the "Series Order" section instead of complete removal of them. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 08:54, April 29, 2020 (EDT) | ::I was under the impression that the origins and artwork would be relocated to the "Series Order" section instead of complete removal of them. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 08:54, April 29, 2020 (EDT) | ||
:::When the proposal itself is called "'''Removal''' of Origin Game/Artwork from List of spirits pages" and Nokii's opening statement says nothing about relocating that information, I think it's pretty clearly advocating for the outright removal. In fact, Nokii is even suggesting completely replacing the current origins column with the "Series Order" instead of leaving the latter as a separate table. --[[User:PeabodySam|PeabodySam]] ([[User talk:PeabodySam|talk]]) 10:14, April 29, 2020 (EDT) | |||
Since there's been some question over the "[[SW:SPEC|speculation]]" argument (seen in OmegaToad64 and Alex's votes), my own understanding of Nokii's argument is: the fact that we include the game/artwork origins column is vestigial speculation originating from before SSBU's release, since we did not know at that time if the game would be listing this origin information for spirits, so we came up with our own method for presenting spirits' origins on this wiki. However, the actual information presented in the origin column is not speculative, since it's all objective info and based on proven facts. | |||
In short: including the origins information in the table was "speculation" regarding what's presented in-game, but the origins information itself is not. --[[User:PeabodySam|PeabodySam]] ([[User talk:PeabodySam|talk]]) 10:14, April 29, 2020 (EDT) | |||
