Here is some evidence that Shadow will be in Brawl: at 1:24 (Or maybe Shadow will just be another color of Sonic)? Theryguy512 17:04, 8 January 2008 (EST)

I smell something fake. Ness wasn't revealed yet, the graphics are a bit messy, and the icons at the bottom are wrong.~Μαριοθανικαλ 17:13, 8 January 2008 (EST)

Also, the Beam Sword is the old version. The icons are different as shown in the image below.~Μαριοθανικαλ 17:15, 8 January 2008 (EST)

Thats actually a fake melee image, both Sonic & Shadow are taken straight from the game Sonic Heroes User:Kamicciolo

Brawl

Shouldn't someone add something about his cameo as an assist trophy?

Introduction

I'm not sure how PokemonDP wanted me to contact him, but here seems fine since this should be a public decision. I was doing exactly what everyone has said was okay: give a brief outline (ie, one paragraph) over the character's role in their own series prior to entering the Mario series. According to you on that proposal, a short intro should be given as per Wiki policy, however the length seemed to be decided by you alone. Not to be obnoxious, but I only got approval for my example about Sonic the Hedgehog from everyone who commented except you. Then, when I actually put that in the article, I shortened it because I knew you were worried about the length. You'll also note that per Wiki policy we are allowed to write in-depth about a cross-over character so long as the information we're writing about comes from a crossover title (ie Brawl or Olympic Games). You'll notice that in the Shadow and Tails articles I took care to use a very large majority of information from the SSBB trophy profiles. If I remember right, there were something like one or two sentences that weren't brought up in Brawl. According the Wikia policy, having one or two sentences to explain a character's history in his/her own series is acceptable.

Then we have that proposal. As far as I can determine, the proposal was an attempt to make each crossover article something like the character discription section here: [1]. You'll remember that at the beginning I told the proposer that I would be in favor of it if he meant only a short profile, like my example I then gave. He was positive about that idea, but then never changed the official profile description. In other words, the official proposal that people were voting on was still to include information from titles such as Sonic Rush, not to include short summaries like what I suggested. Thus, when the opposition won, that meant the following: we are not expanding the amount of non-Mario/Smash series info that is allowed on the Wiki -- it stands at a short description at the very beginning, which is exactly what you see now on the Sonic articles and saw on the Tails and Shadow articles.

I never EVER agreed to that much information. I never said a paragraph. I never said that. I only said one or two lines briefly detailing outside information. What you added was what MegaMario wanted to happen; But if memory serves, the Support side - MegaMario's side - lost, and the Oppose side - the side voting for the short descriptions that were always there - won. So please leave it be. If you want to rewrite it, that's fine, but please don't go overboard, like what you did just before. Tho, removing your expanded Brawl and Mario & Sonic information was a mistake I made. My Bloody Valentine
