Proposed.png This discussion is in regards to a proposed change on SmashWiki. The discussion must first meet with a consensus before it is implemented.

Since having a separate discussion on every hitbox collection page is beyond unfeasible, this page was made for the discussion of the entire concept to take place. To be clear, the proposal is to delete the pages which hold a collection of hitbox images for specific characters.

Support

Oppose

  1. Oppose, to say that the move subpages make these hitbox collections obsolete is frankly absurd. Generally speaking, when people want to see hitboxes for their main, they will try and find all hitboxes for their character, both for the sake of convenience and for making sure they don't miss any. A quick check on Google demonstrates this; searches like "Mario hitboxes smash 4" are far more likely to appear as search suggestions than searches like "Super Jump Punch hitbox smash 4", which is reflective of what people tend to look for, and the role of SmashWiki is to provide people with information on Super Smash Bros. content in a clear and organized manner. But beyond this, expecting people to have to manually go through multiple, or potentially all of, the move subpage for their character in order to view all of the moves they are interested in viewing hitboxes for is in my opinion simply a foolish idea. These pages very much do have a use, I know I certainly use them, and the example I gave above demonstrates that other people would also make use of them. So as a result I am strongly against the deletion of these pages. Alex the Jigglypuff trainer 14:48, 30 November 2018 (EST)
  2. Oppose, pretty much what Alex said. Having to go to every page is much too tedious and makes it difficult to compare hitboxes, which is what people are typically trying to do when looking at them. Spexx (talk) 15:30, 30 November 2018 (EST)
