Hey guys. So you may know that me and [[User:Disaster Flare|Disaster Flare]] recently finished (or as close as we are going to get for the moment) getting various assets and screenshots prepared for all character pages in all games. What I wanted to ask you guys is this: should we have something we don't? I am going to put a few suggestions for you guys to vote on below, but if you guys think of something that I didn't, feel free to add another. Thanks! <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 18:40, 21 December 2015 (EST) | Hey guys.

I agree that we shouldn't have exhaustive rips of every single thing that's relevant to a page's subject; we're about information, not a source of game files, and I don't really see how a bunch of sound clips is helpful there.

::We don't fill in the "notable players" sections of character pages just to stop them from looking empty. Files have to have a purpose, and if the only purpose is "so we have them", that's kind of veering out of "fair use" territory.

'''Global oppose''' on everything (with the possible, debatable exception of SSE previews) per Miles and Toomai, especially with respect to soundbites as I don't feel they serve any truly useful role: in my view (as a regular user with no wiki position) pages should be mainly about how things work, and sounds have a negligible part in it. Also echoing Toomai's doubts about fair use. --[[User:Menshay|Menshay]] ([[User talk:Menshay|talk]]) 06:56, 23 December 2015 (EST) | |||

So as it stands, I am currently leaning towards a yes on narrator names, no on All-Star portraits, yes on Pokemon cries, yes on controller icons, yes on masterpiece icons, and neutral on SSE preview icons. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 13:15, 22 December 2015 (EST) | So as it stands, I am currently leaning towards a yes on narrator names, no on All-Star portraits, yes on Pokemon cries, yes on controller icons, yes on masterpiece icons, and neutral on SSE preview icons. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] 13:15, 22 December 2015 (EST) | ||
