As you likely know, CoroCoro is having a 30 page feature in its latest issue, to be released today (Japan timezone) to subscribers and tomorrow to everyone else. Supposedly, information on characters will be included, possibly including characters that haven't yet been revealed. We need to decide how we'll handle any new information and the flood of vandalism and unsourced material that will come attached to any major announcements in the issue. Time is of the essence as subscribers will be receiving the issue within the next few hours. [[User:ShadowUltra|ShadowUltra]] ([[User talk:ShadowUltra|talk]]) 22:42, 13 December 2007 (UTC) |

:Obviously we'd continue to use the standard "only add to the article if it's notable" mentality, but as far as sourcing, I say we wait for legit newssites (IGN, Gamespot, 1UP, Kotaku, Joystiq, etc.) to post info from the articles. Using fourm and blogposts as citations comes with the pitfall of not being able to prove that info is true, as those aren't proper primary or secondary sources, unless said posts can be proven to be by people in the industry, which is only easy to do on company forums or blogs.

I'm fairly certain the magazine in question was only going to be confirming characters already released on Dojo. Someone started the rumor that it was going to be a full roster lineup, but the article in question was actually just saying that the current roster was going to be covered in depth. At any rate, this article is fairly well patrolled. I don't think we have anything to worry about. [[User:Coreycubed|Coreycubed]] ([[User talk:Coreycubed|talk]]) 15:12, 14 December 2007 (UTC) |

== Stage Section == |

Shouldn't there be a section concerning the stages? There is an entire section for the characters alone, so it would make sense that something is included in the article about the different stages that players will fight on. As it is, the only thing I've seen that comes close is a brief mention of the stage-builder feature in the Wi-Fi sub-section. Any thoughts?

:Stages, are mentioned, they are under gamplay but not noteable for an indepent section, but for a paragraph. As is stage builder.

::I appreciate the answer. I just wanted to know why stages weren't included since they are an integral part of the game; I was concerned that the article was missing something important. I didn't mean that a list of all of the stages should be included, but details could be added into the article in a similar format to the character section. Basic info like some stages have changing environments or the differences between the newer stages and the old ones could be added. If it really isn't necessary, though, then I won't push it further.

::::Again, I never meant a list of details about each and every stage. I only think that a small section should be created that describes significant features of some stages. For example, since most stages have platforms, we wouldn't need to mention that since it would be trivial. If one stage has an environment that changes radically throughout a match, or has some other unique characteristic that makes it stand out as a stage from the majority, then perhaps that should be mentioned. At most, I would expect only two or three significant new stages to be mentioned in the section, in a way that balances the stage section with the character section in terms of content, since (in my opinion) both are equally important in the game.

:::::I agree with you, Comandante42. Some levels change based on what time Wii's internal clock is. I believe that's the Animal Crossing level.

We already have examples of features some stages have. There's no reason to add any more examples. We've already covered the vital info. Anything else will cross into game guide and cruft.[[User:Satoryu|Satoryu]] ([[User talk:Satoryu|talk]]) 01:02, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

:It doesn't provide enough information. --[[User:Son|Son]] ([[User talk:Son|talk]]) 01:35, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |
|||
I think that we could improve the paragraph by adding a bit as well. As it is, it's pretty short and doesn't cover very much...basically what it says now is that stages are from represented game series, are flat in terms of movement, and that when you pass the stage boundary you lose a life (the most basic info that you could really give). It then says that some stages undergo changes and that some are being reused, and that's about it. Come on people, we've discussed the characters' controls in depth, how special moves are exectuted, which types of characters are appearing, which series are getting characters, the company ownership status of third-party characters, which territories characters are being selected from, how several particular characters (Snake, Lucas, Sonic) came to appear in Brawl, and how a character / music poll was conducted in Japan and on Nintendo's forums. Not that we should necessarily remove any of that, but it seems clear to me that if we can add all this character information without falling into game guide territory, the stage bit could be safely expanded.

Mabey we SHUOLD mention that there are 3rd party stages (not listing them all) and state some ''Melee'' stages are returning. Also that "moving stages" are coming back (Rumble Falls).

{{quotation|Wikipedia is an encyclopedic reference, not an instruction manual, guidebook or textbook. Wikipedia articles should not read like: |
|||
# '''Instruction manuals.''' While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, a Wikipedia article should not read like a how-to style manual of instructions, advice ([[Wikipedia:Legal disclaimer|legal]], [[Wikipedia:Medical disclaimer|medical]], or otherwise) or suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, game guides, and recipes.(<small>Note the how-to restriction does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as [[Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia]].</small>) Also telling the reader how something is used is encyclopedic, telling how to use something is not.) If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at [[wikiHow]] or our sister project [[Wikibooks]]. |
|||
# '''Travel guides.''' An article on [[Paris]] should mention landmarks such as the [[Eiffel Tower]] and the [[Louvre]], but not the telephone number or street address of your favorite hotel or the price of a ''café au lait'' on the [[Champs-Élysées]]. Wikipedia is not a place to re-create content more suited to entries in hotel guides, culinary guides, popular eating guides, gazeteers, travelogues, and the like. Notable locations may meet inclusion criteria, but Wikipedia does not list every tourist attraction, restaurant, hotel, venue, etc. Such details may be welcome at [[Wikitravel]], however. |
|||
# '''Internet guides.''' Wikipedia articles should not exist '''only''' to describe the nature, appearance or services a website offers, but should describe the site in an ''encyclopedic manner'', offering detail on a website's achievements, impact or historical significance, which can be significantly more up-to-date than most reference sources since we can incorporate new developments and facts as they are made known. See [[current events]] for examples. |
|||
# '''Textbooks and annotated texts.''' Wikipedia is an encyclopedic reference, not a textbook. The purpose of Wikipedia is to present facts, not to teach subject matter. It is not appropriate to create or edit articles which read as textbooks, with leading questions and step-by-step problem solutions as examples. These belong on our sister projects [[Wikibooks]] and [[Wikisource]]. |

{{quotation|One of the major aspects of fancruft articles is that they tend to focus entirely on their subject's fictional relevance, as opposed to their place in the real world. Articles on episodes of television series, or fictional characters in movies are more likely to be labeled fancruft if they are primarily summaries, biographies of made-up people, or collections of trivia that relate to the continuity of a series rather than its critical or social reception. In fact, an article should not be entirely composed of summaries or biographies of fictional characters. Articles can often avoid being labeled fancruft if they avoid focusing on their subjects as fiction. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction) for more about how to achieve this. |

Satyoru, here's the policy you've cited and the essay you've mentioned. By putting in more information about stages, what would violate [[WP:GAMEGUIDE]]? --[[User:Son|Son]] ([[User talk:Son|talk]]) 17:25, 21 December 2007 (UTC) |

== Another Delay? == |

Please everyone look into this, sorry in advance if it's not relevant enough. |

On Smashboards.com someone said their gamestop told them of a March 28, 2008 release date, and then someone copied an E-mail from Walmart saying there was another delay. Now on the Walmart site it says in won't be available until March 28, 2008: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=6527131 |

Please everyone look into this. --[[User:Adam murgittroyd|Adam]] ([[User talk:Adam murgittroyd|talk]]) 01:02, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

:Nothing official here. Until Nintendo says otherwise, the release date is still Feb 10.[[User:Satoryu|Satoryu]] ([[User talk:Satoryu|talk]]) 01:08, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

If its not on the |

[http://smashbros.com smashbros] website |
|||
, then its not official.--[[User:Dlo2012|Dlo2012]] ([[User talk:Dlo2012|talk]]) 15:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

Okay, we get it. No need for anyone else to say 'If it's not on Smashbros, it's not official'. Once is enough. -[[User:Sukecchi|Sukecchi]] ([[User talk:Sukecchi|talk]]) 15:57, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

Sorry for bringing it up, i wasn't really expecting anything official enough to change the page, but i wanted to see if anyone could find more evidence.--[[User:Adam murgittroyd|Adam]] ([[User talk:Adam murgittroyd|talk]]) 18:34, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

:I pre-ordered one at Gamestop and they did not told me anything of a delay. Actually I pre-ordered it since August and they did not told me that the game was delayed to Feb 10. |
