| '''Keep.''' Taunt Matches are quite common and many people might want to find out information about them. When players go on Basic Brawl and sees players taunting, they might want to find out why the players are taunting. EDIT: I agree with Cafinator, Taunt Matches may seem nonsense, but it's an actual term or event that people do, ergo, a page containing information about it seems useful.

| For a real player, ending up stuck in a "taunt match" is the most frustrating thing on WiFi and tends to be facilitated by people who can somehow stay easily entertained listening to "Pee-ka-choo-pee-ka-choo" for the duration of an entire match, who then proceed to do it again next round. I don't understand what sort of player enjoys this on a repeat basis, but I can't deny its existence and although it's a facet of play that I have no concept of, I guess it's notable enough for an article. I'll do everything I can to resist putting [[Image:Retard.jpg]] at the top. :^) --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 14:19, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

| :This is a talk page for discussion related to the article. The notion that you are ''supposed'' to "vote" and then ''not'' leave your opinion on the article is ridiculous. A vote counts for nothing if you can't provide a reason for your decision. And remember that this isn't a straight democracy; just because there's ten people saying "Keep" doesn't mean that it won't get deleted based on three people who come to a reasonable conclusion about lack of article notability through discussion.

| '''Keep.''' Sure, it may not be the most enjoyable type of matches, but it's a common occurence on With Anyone fights and (though less often) With Friends matches.

| '''Keep'''. I just had my first match of this kind the other day, and indeed, much of the information in this article was reflected in my experience. I also find it interesting to know that this is, indeed, a documented phenomenon.

| ==Common/Uncommon==

| | |
| To prevent a forthcoming edit war, I think it's pretty clear that we establish that Taunt Matches are '''uncommon''' in the grand scheme of WiFi play. Considering that there was already a lengthy debate over whether or not a "Taunt Match" was notable enough for an article in the first place, it is obviously not "common in WiFi play." Gargomon's edit should stand. --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 22:05, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

| |
| | |
| I don't really think there was much of a debate on their being notable: consensus was pretty clear. Maybe it's just me, but the wifi games I've played usually have a croucher who wants to start goofing around, but usually do not end up as a full-blown taunt match. Hopefully a little bit of explanation will help stop the edit war more than deleting an edit an admin said to keep.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 22:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

| :::Address your points on the talk page when the effort has been put forth to open a discussion over an edit war. It is much more helpful than reverting edits and coupling the reverts with a terse and baseless rebuttal in the edit summary. It says: ''"You said yourself that you have had Taunt Matches over Wifi, and that you just don't like them. To prevent an "Edit war", I'll just delete this part of the page."'' Setting aside for the moment that I would never falsify an edit "just because I don't like them", I should also point out that your argument seems to speak to the existence of the article, not the commonality of Taunt Matches. I have already asserted that I'm fine with the article existing and recognize that there's enough dullards in the world doing this for notability. That doesn't make them "common"--in fact, I would argue that ''at least'' 30% of ALL WiFi matches would have to be Taunt Matches in order to lay claim to notability. The thing is, the numbers aren't even close to 30% and you don't need research to prove it. --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 23:25, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

| <!-- tl;dr -->
| |
| I would just like to note that I never once said I had any sort of dislike for taunt matches. I don't know if you were referring to me. The fact is, yes, maybe one person does mess around, but I can never be sure of the intent of the player, nor have I ever seen it escalate into a full-on Taunt Match, even in the loosest sense. Usually it's just some spammer being a smart-*** or some n00b who doesn't seem to know what she/he's doing. I witnessed a Spectator Match with a surprisingly slow and/or unresponsive DK but it didn't look like they were trying to mock the other players, and nobody really payed attention. - [[User:Gargomon251|Gargomon251]] ([[User talk:Gargomon251|talk]]) 11:03, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
