The In-depth Fighter Analysis Project Proposal
So, as everyone can see from the discussion about the scope of fighting game guides, I have a new idea. One of the things that is holding us back from adding gameplay strategies for each character is because of the sheer amount of work that needs to be done, from researching to writing down what works for each character. So why not make it a group effort?

And thus I propose the "In-depth Fighter Analysis Project", to give all fighting games specific character strategies, matchup informations and other in-depth info that will improve the quality of each guide. The concept is that we choose a fighting game, or even a specific character, and focus on that FG/character. This includes researching strategies for that character or creating them if there aren't any that can be found. Ideally, each character page should have a gameplay overview of the character, certain techniques and how to perform them, notable moves analysis, character matchups and a short combo list.

So what do you all think of the concept? Is it something that could work, or does it sound way too ambitious? T.testLP(talk) 09:39, 6 November 2012 (UTC)


 * It's not a bad idea. However, I think it should be scrapped for the time being, since only one person has been regularly working on the fighting game guides, and in limited capacity. If more fighting game editors appear, it would make sense to collaborate and focus efforts as you suggest. -- 17:09, 7 November 2012 (UTC)


 * In truth test, there's nothing stopping anyone from doing any of that right now. If that's what you'd like to add to the character pages, by all means, please go ahead and do it.  There's no "restrictions" on what can be placed there, it's just a question of whether anyone has the motivation to write it all up.   Pro  cyon  03:00, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

WiiU button template
I just put together a WiiU controls template and slapped some button images together. Most of the images are recycled, but they should do unless somebody wants to make better ones or whatever. Wanderer (talk) 06:42, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
