Forums: Index Proposals Move names
Proposed.png This discussion is in regards to a proposed change on SmashWiki. The discussion must first meet with a consensus before it is implemented.

For too long, we have gone without a standard for what's considered an accepted source (outside of direct mentions by the Smash series) for naming characters' moves. That's about to change here. Serpent SKSig.png King 23:38, 22 January 2018 (EST)

When voting Please it clear whether you support or oppose each preferably by bolding it.

Nintendo power

  1. Support, as it's too difficult to come up with other names for moves, and we should have more data than we do. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the internets go! :3 23:44, 22 January 2018 (EST)
  2. I vote for the Nintendo Power guides to be the source in this one. Nintendo Power used to be a legal division of Nintendo, on which descriptions used to be pretty accurate on whatever the topic was, no matter which one. Besides, some Japanese speaking people were able to translate, in a way, the moves of characters from their Japanese guides, technically making the names from the Nintendo Power guides official. As a result, I'll choose this one as my cup of tea. --BeepYouSignature.png Beep (talk) 23:45, 22 January 2018 (EST)

Prima

Neutral, possibly support, for this is a third party source that doesn't necessarily know the official names. But then again, so is Nintendo Power, so you can see the bind I'm in. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the internets go! :3 23:44, 22 January 2018 (EST)

Comparable moves from each characters' source games

Full support - this is the one I support the most. Nobody can know the move names better than the games from which the characters came from. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the internets go! :3 23:44, 22 January 2018 (EST)

I support if it's the same or very close to the source. ZombieZlayer (talk) 23:43, 22 January 2018 (EST)

Oppose I fail to understand how it can be considered acceptable to have move names taken from other games without any source claiming that they are in fact the same move as in Smash. Serpent SKSig.png King 23:47, 22 January 2018 (EST)
