What does (sic) mean? I've seen it around smashwiki and I'm curious.[[User:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Orange;">highway</span>]] [[User talk:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Red;">pumpy</span>]] <sup><span style="color:Yellow;">[[Special:Contributions/highwaypumpy|sfs</span></sup>]] 00:37, April 8, 2010 (UTC) | What does (sic) mean?

:[[wikipedia:sic|<nowiki>[sic]</nowiki>]] is a kind of punctuation mark used in quotes to indicate that the quoter didn't spell it wrong, but the original source did. Kind of like saying "This isn't an error, it's the exact quote". For example, the Wikitroid entry on the Dark Suit quotes its trophy in Brawl and puts a [sic] just after "Dark Torvus Temple" to indicate that the guy who wrote out the description didn't copy it wrong, but instead that the description itself is wrong (in this case, the correct wording should be "Dark Agon Temple").
