Forum:Ambitious idea for moveset subpage system

From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

This is a proposal to create a network of subpages for every attack of every character containing in-depth information and technical data, essentially massively expanding and splitting the current moveset list of character pages.

Purpose
List all available information for all moves without having to squeeze it into one section on one page.
Target
A series of pages such as [[Donkey Kong (SSB)/Back aerial]], [[Young Link (SSBM)/Grab aerial]], and [[Mario (SSBB)/Side special]] that contain a detailed overview of the move and all its properties and usages, hitbox data, frame data, other important values, and optionally "soft" data such as average KO power. Pages would also be connected by a series of categories that group them by property (such as flame attacks, leg attacks, attacks that can be reflected, etc).
Notes
  • Pages such as Fireball and Robo Beam would remain as they are, describing each special move in general without necessarily getting into game-specific numbers. They would then link to [[R.O.B. (SSBB)/Neutral special]] and the like.
  • Moveset information on character pages would continue to go over the most important aspects of each move (damage, relative KO power/direction, notable uses), but most other things would be covered only by the subpage.
Example
Mostly-complete mockup of Mario (SSBB)/Forward smash
