Perhaps I'm beating a dead horse of a topic, but just to clarify, I'm really confused.

Okay, so the whole rules of crossover characters and such has been a controversial topic on this wiki, and as much as I hate to bring this up, I believe we need to both simplify it to here it doesn't seem SO confusing to understand and rewrite a few things. Oh, and I do have some comments to make.

First off, the rules of the crossover character are just downright contradicting. "A character from that game may receive a page IF Sonic appeared." Okay, so do tell me this: why the heck does all of the Mario characters get their own pages, but none of the Smash Bros. characters (some of them that have appeared twice, mind you) may NOT receive articles? Link, for example? ''He appears in Lost World and in both Smash Bros. games Sonic appears in. Yet, he can't get an article.'' I'm probably missing something here (most of the time on situations like this, I am), but I'm probably not the only one out there.

Second, a bit of a rewrite. Two comics/games/etc. just to get an article? That's a bit off-putting. Personally, those Smash Bros. characters should get articles for the following:


 * What if, a viewer wants to know more about Greninja or Link or Zelda? They obviously won't find it here. Sure; this guy has put in effort to make articles of what I'm talking about, but viewers won't have a clue to get to his subpages. Instead, someone can just type "Pikachu" on the search bar and BAM! they're there. (lol)
 * Weren't wikis supposed to give information about a subject? We're essentially contradicting that question if so.
 * And finally; what does a page of Samus Aran or Fox McCloud going to hurt? Hell, we have a page on Toad, a character who has never been playable in Sonic-relate games, yet he gets a page?! I tell you this: allowing that page to stay but the Smash Bros. characters not is total a hypocrite move.

Now, like I said, I'm confused on everything about this subject, the reason I don't want to attempt to bring up a dead horse, but to at least help it and others. Thank you for reading, and comment below. 02:30, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
