==Disallow the sub-pages that does not serve the wiki== | |||
I've seen several sub-pages that does not serve the wiki at all, Mostly like Userboxes pages. I know it is fun to make them, but we are an encyclopedia not a social page or something. What could be allowed is the /Sandbox /Test /Draft.. and all others, should be merged into the userpage itself.. For people giving their /Userboxes as a link for their friend userbox, the page should be turned into a redirect. | |||
In other word: I propose deleting them, what about you guys?--[[File:MegadarderySig.png|x20px|link=User:Megadardery]][[User_talk:Megadardery|egadardery]] (<small>[[Special:Contributions/Megadardery|edits]]</small>) 03:13, 21 August 2013 (EDT) | |||
:No, because that would make user pages far too long. I see no issue with users making subpages. It's not disruptive unless users make only subpages and don't contribute to the wiki and we have [[SmashWiki:Probation]] to prevent that. <span style="font-family:Triforce, sans-serif;">'''[[User:Dr. Pain 99|<font color=#008000>D<font color=#008019>o<font color=#008031>c<font color=#008049>t<font color=#008062>o<font color=#008080>rP</font>a</font>i</font>n</font>9</font>9</font>]]'''</span> 03:22, 21 August 2013 (EDT) | |||

:Which is why users who focus on their userspace excessively are put on probation. | |||
:''should be merged into the userpage itself'' | |||
:As DP99 said, it would make userpages far too big. My userpage is ~25K bytes. If I merged all my subpages, what would it be? 250K? Just 50K is considered more than enough. | |||

== Gallery sections? == | |||
Should we have a Gallery page like in MarioWiki for the individual pages so that we can add images like most of their moves in that game, stock icons (and re-colours), Classic mode image and more? I think it would be a very easy way to navigate the images of the particular fighter. ----- [[User:Conanshinichi|Conan]][[User talk:Conanshinichi|shinichi]] 12:45, 26 August 2013 (EDT) | |||

:Having discussed this with Conanshinichi on IRC I think having a gallery for every character's game-specific article showing stuff like their moves, stock icons, etc. could be a good idea. However a stage gallery (showing sutff like different backgrounds and things that can appear in backgrounds or on the stage) could just be on the stage's article as it's not big enough to warrant its own article (unlike galleries for each character as they would be far too big to go on their pages). Though both of us couldn't really think of any other articles that could have galleries.

I'd say this is a good idea. I'm a little hesitant to include it on the main Mario (SSBM) page in its entirety, as I know a lot of wikis move large galleries like that to subpages, but this one's small enough that I'm less sure where it should be of the two options.

:Ones like the example probably would be subpages.

Would have to say this is a creative idea. Galleries showing all of the stuff a character has in that game sounds pretty organized.

Now that I've found this proposal on this page that shouldn't exist, I can say I don't like it. Why do we need an animated image for every animation in the game? Why do we need separate image files for every character-related UI texture? How does this benefit users who have the game? I don't think those things are even what this original proposal was about, it just snowballed for some reason.

:Well, now that you got me thinking about it, it is kinda useless. Guess I should move the page back to [[User:MeMyselfAndI/Mario (SSBM)/Gallery]]. Though I'm still gonna take animations of Every special attack in the game and upload them to their pages. --[[File:MMAI.png|link=|19px]][[User:MeMyselfAndI|<span style="color:#FF0000">Me</span>]][[User talk:MeMyselfAndI|Myself]][[Special:Contributions/MeMyselfAndI|<span style="color:#FF00FF">AndI</span>]] 16:13, 3 September 2013 (EDT) | |||
