This really dosen't have any relation to Smash Bros.T.testLP (talk) 06:46, 16 November 2010 (EST)

Helped art direction. Read it for once.--MegaTron1XD 10:04, 16 November 2010 (EST)

Yeah, if he helped on the game, he should have an article. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 12:51, 16 November 2010 (EST)

this belongs on a pokemon wiki....this man has nothing to do with smash brothersGig (talk) 15:20, 16 November 2010 (EST)

Yah, no. Read it. He helped direct the Pokemon department. I suppose that a person who created most of the Pokemon designs aren't notable? For SSB series too. You should read the article carefully. It's only a few paragraphs.--MegaTron1XD 21:07, 16 November 2010 (EST)

Bump

I would merge with Pokemon Universe article. --HavocReaper48 22:55, 31 August 2011 (EDT)

• I agree. ƋoӄԏoяΠɛəи99 _{ROLLBACKER} 23:01, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
• Agree. It's really small notability Smash Bros wise. Blindcolours tappity Tappity TAPPITY 23:04, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
• Agreed. --RoyboyX Talk 13:14, 24 August 2012 (EDT)
• Oppose. He worked on the Smash Bros games, and is a major director of the Pokemon games. See Shigesato Itoi. Mr. Anontalk 13:17, 24 August 2012 (EDT)
  • Actually, looking back at the discussio on that talk page, Miles proposed we merge all the producer articles into one. Mr. Anontalk 13:18, 24 August 2012 (EDT)

• I guess we could do that. --RoyboyX Talk 13:27, 24 August 2012 (EDT)

Deletion...again

Per my tag, I support deletion of the article.~~ John HUAH! 10:44, 22 May 2017 (EDT)

Support. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 22:26, 27 May 2017 (EDT)

As mentioned above, I suggested (in 2011, damn) that we make a page for people whose Smash contributions are major enough to mention without being major enough to warrant their own page. While I would keep someone like Itoi separate from such a page as a co-owner of characters, Sugimori probably should be reduced to a section on such a page. Other people who could be included on the list include other illustrators who worked on the SSB4 character posters (e.g. Nomura), Nintendo employees involved in Smash promotion but not to the degree of Reggie (Treehouse staff?), maybe condense Miyamoto's article in as well due to his smaller role in relation to Smash, I dunno. Regardless of whether we create such a page, I will agree though that Sugimori doesn't have enough of a role in Smash in particular to warrant his own page here. Miles (talk) 23:11, 27 May 2017 (EDT)

Apparently, everyone ignored your merger suggestion and just went on with life lol. I would be open to a merger, but deciding who gets onto the "list of developers" page could tricky. Do we put only people like Reggie or Miyamoto, or should we include everyone from the credits of every Smash game because there's not a good cutoff? I think that seems excessive, but it seems like we should at least have the credits of each game on some page. I personally feel that Itoi getting a page seems somewhat odd, but because his name appears on the main screen of the game, I guess there's a better case for him.

Either way, I'd like for this to finally get resolved one way or another. John HUAH! 00:13, 28 May 2017 (EDT)

I agree. With that, I will approve on this! Dragonfirebreath25 (talk) 23:15, 27 May 2017 (EDT)

Oppose sure, lemme just keep putting the deletion template on an article until I get the result I want. Jeez it's the U.S election all over again. The way I see it, if he made a contribution to smash, he deserves a page, even if it was minor. Alex Parpotta (talk) 04:27, 28 May 2017 (EDT)

You highly exaggerate the situation, and I only joined the wiki in late 2014, so it's not like I had anything to do with the first two decisions. The case for keeping this page is weak if we don't have pages for similar people who made equally-minor contributions to Smash. We should either finally go with Miles' suggestion or delete the page. I mean, why don't we have pages for the art directors of Metroid, Donkey Kong, Fire Emblem or any other series on this wiki?

On that note, for the sake of not removing any info, I now support Miles' suggestion for a merge, provided we actually do it this time. John HUAH! 12:45, 28 May 2017 (EDT)

I support a merge as well. I've created an outline of what to include. Nyargleblargle (Contribs) 22:21, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
