:How does the AT template look "tacky", and how does converting to a less specific template with more irrelevant boxes help? [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Cloronic 16:59, 16 August 2013 (EDT)

::The ICG template is more complete and it is much more specific than the AT template. The AT template has barely any information and it just looks unprofessional. And if the boxes are "irrelevant", why do playable characters get them? I think they are nice little bits of information. <span style="font-family:AR JULIAN; font-size:12pt">[[User:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Chuck</span>]][[User talk:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Norris</span>]]</span>[[File:24.png|23px]]  09:55, 17 August 2013 (EDT)

:::General character pages are about the character and only the character, so physical and biographical information is okay; such would be irrelevant on pages about the same characters in the Smash Bros. games (compare [[Mario]] with [[Mario (SSBB)]]). Assist Trophy pages are primarily about the AT's gameplay effect and secondarily about them as a character, so in my opinion adding physical/bigraphical stuff in their infobox is unnecessary and cluttery.
:::Regardless of this, Assist Trophies should use their own infobox, as they're a distinct gameplay element. If you want to add physical/biographical stuff to that infobox, argue for it on that template's talk page.
