Even though I'm an admin, I will still brawl anyone that challenges me, regardless of their skill level. If you want to Brawl me, contact me here or on the IRC. If you wish, you can also ask me for my Pokémon FCs or for my Wii code (to exchange vault data). If you do brawl me, be sure to have tourney rules set. I'm also on the IRC everyday and due to my inconsistent sleeping patterns, you can find me on there in the most unusual of hours.

Universal templates

If a template only has one item in it, don't you think that is a little too minor for it to be created?

It was my original position, but then MoSW went and made {{DS universe}} and {{Electroplankton universe}}, which included a reversion in the latter case of {{delete| Is this template really necessary if it only has one thing in it? }} with "yes it is". Ergo, I was following the admin's lead. - Reboot (talk) 05:30, 16 January 2011 (EST)

One admin's opinion =/= equal the view of the Wiki, especially if they can back up their view with only "yes it is". I'm going to delete the latter one now. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 05:35, 16 January 2011 (EST)

My logic was that the universes recognized as such in-game (by having their own logo, mind you) merited having a universe template. This would include the DS and Electroplankton universes, which have their own in-game logos (can be verified by the DOJO pages as well). The Assist Trophy-only universes, however, fail to meet this criterion; this can also be checked at the DOJO. I would therefore recommend re-adding the DS and Electroplankton templates, minor though they may be. Miles (talk) 12:14, 16 January 2011 (EST)

Understandable, but I don't see the practicality, as each of the universe templates for them only include one item. Considering that these templates are made for navigation, what's the point when these templates will only be on two pages, the article that the item already links to, and the universe page where there will already be a link to the page that the item links to.

Standardization of matching every other stage. Miles (talk) 19:01, 16 January 2011 (EST)
Still not practical to have a template that only links to the page you're already on. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 08:22, 17 January 2011 (EST)
