Talk:List of spirits (Final Fantasy series)

No confirmed spirits?

All the other series had confirmed spirits to list. But this page has nothing. Shouldn't we have at least one Final Fantasy spirit confirmed before starting this page? Someone started this page with Zack, but he was removed because no one can find him. I think maybe this page should be deleted until we find a Final Fantasy spirit, but with the game's release in three weeks, it might be a bad time to delete this. But it's easy for an admin to restore pages after they've been deleted, right? Like going into the deletion log and click on "Restore," right? But it might be pointless to delete now only to restore in three weeks. But this article feels redundant without any spirits to list, and with the low amount of representation Final Fantasy is getting, there is a chance that there might not be any spirits. So what should we do? SeanWheeler (talk) 15:54, 16 November 2018 (EST)

Reference List of stickers (Ice Climber series). FF probably only Cloud's spirit, like Trophies of SSB4.--Tyughvbnsi (talk) 21:57, 16 November 2018 (EST)

It could be, but has it been confirmed that all fighters would have spirits? SeanWheeler (talk) 00:36, 17 November 2018 (EST)

This page should only be deleted if there are no FF spirits found after the game releases. There are "Fighter Spirits", which would indicate that all fighters would/will get one. If after the game is released, and not even Cloud received a Spirit, then this page should probably be deleted.

We keep this page until after the game releases, not all spirits have been confirmed yet. ZeldaStarfoxfan2164 (talk) is made in America 18:14, 23 November 2018 (EST)

Don't delete it yet-there are likely hundreds and hundreds of more spirits we don't know about yet, and there might be a Cloud one floating around somewhere! Collateralshrek (talk) 18:16, 23 November 2018 (EST)

I only mentioned it as someone added the "consideration for deletion" on the page with the reasoning behind it being that no spirits have found yet. The game's not even out yet! Wolff (talk) 18:19, 23 November 2018 (EST)

Personally, I hate that there are no FF spirits yet. It's annoying. CleffaGirl173 18:35, 23 November 2018 (EST)

I would assume it would be what copyrighted contract the artwork is part of (same goes for the music). In theory, they could want to include more content, but are prevented if the content is under a contract preventing it. Also in theory, Onion Knight from FF III, Bartz Klauser from FF V or Terra Branford from FF VI could be in Smash (in some form) as they were said to had been in consideration as fighters instead of Cloud, but the issue currently appears to be more about the art and music instead of the characters themselves. Could very well be the case if they were to use one of Cloud's Smash artwork for his "Fighter Spirit" instead of one from the FF series. (Assuming he gets one and "Fighter Spirits" use non Smash art.) I do hope FF (and possibly more Square IPs) is represented with spirits, but we'll just have to wait for the game's release.

Even if the game's not out yet, someone should have waited for a Final Fantasy spirit to be confirmed before starting up the page, and at least found a image confirming the spirit. But we may need to wait for the game's release before actually deleting the page. But the deletion tag should stay up until someone finds a spirit related to Final Fantasy.
