Category talk:Smashers who participate in SmashWiki

So, uh...

We need to set concrete standards in what is considered "participating in SmashWiki." There's no question that people like Toomai or Omega Tyrant participate in SmashWiki. But what about people who have SmashWiki accounts, but have made a few edits, such as Rickety or Slhoka, or even Mew2king? Should we have something like "more than 100 edits"? Or just "made an account"? Or something entirely different? Discuss. Air Conditioner Goo goo g'joob. 17:57, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

I still disagree that this should exist at all. Why don't "Smashers who participate in SmashBoards", or "...AllIsBrawl"? Because why would we need to make this distinction? Toomai Glittershine The Breegull 18:02, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

+1. There's no reason for this category to exist. It's not notable. DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} 18:05, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

Due to this, I support deletion on this page. Dots The Kirby 18:06, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

You people have a point, and as I said, there's no concrete standard for getting into this category. Support deletion. Air Conditioner Goo goo g'joob. 18:12, 30 October 2012 (EDT) I'm now not quite sure. Both sides have a point. I withdraw my support of deletion, but do not support keeping the category.

I'm not entirely sure on my support of this yet, but I can give responses to some of the things said:

@AC: "Participate in SmashWiki" is clearly different from "Have accounts on SmashWiki". Simply, any user who can be considered an active user on the Wiki for some time would qualify here.

@Toomai: Pretty much every notable smasher out there has been active on those sites and those are the goto sites for the competitive community (it's pretty much necessary to be on one or the other to be active within the competitive community), whereas an extreme minority have been here. A category for smashers on those sites would be pretty much useless when they would have nearly every smasher article in them. Making this comparison is a pretty bad strawman.

As for a "reason" for this category, simply, perhaps users on here are interested in knowing which pros have been active on the site, and what users on the site are notable smashers. I know this applied to me. Omega Tyrant 18:40, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

OT: I see what you mean, but we need some concrete standards. How much is considered "participating"? One edit? Ten edits? One hundred? Five hundred? Air Conditioner Goo goo g'joob. 19:03, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

Indeed, that has applied to me as well, so I support keeping this category. Toast ltimatum 18:47, 30 October 2012 (EDT)
