'''Oppose''': As I've always maintained elsewhere, the wiki is meant to be a neutral arbiter that covers what happens, '''''it is not''''' the place for advertisement and endorsement, no matter what it is for. Additionally I would rather not embroil the wiki in the quagmire of having to decide if a "charity tournament" is "giving enough charity", if it's "big enough" for endorsement, determining the legitimacy of the charity the tourney is donating to, and if it's giving to a "good enough cause". It would be a terrible idea to give carte blanche endorsement to any tournament that comes along with "charity" slapped on it, while there will inevitably be backlash from outside (or ''within'') the wiki for rejecting advertisement of one of these tournies (or even for ''allowing'' advertisement to one). As the opposing admins reiterated on the discord, leave the advertising to twitter and reddit where they better belong. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 19:52, May 30, 2021 (EDT) | |||
