Edits

Please avoid adding filler in your writing (making your writing too wordy) and changing valid words and phrases around unnecessarily (especially into a more casual tone). A lot of your edits, including your anonymous ones, have consisted of this; for example, changing "fell through" to "declared impossible" (even though that's not what they explicitly said) and "too far in" into an unnecessarily more informal "incredibly deep in", and edits here (the part about Chrom), here (which could have been cut down without the first part), and here ("fulfil the expectations and hopes of representing" is flowery writing and completely unnecessary; just say "represent"). Your rewriting of the Melee pre-release content page also removed formatting for game titles and you also forgot to italicise game titles yourself despite being reminded already.

Sorry, I will not do it again. ItsMarioTime! (talk) 02:11, August 31, 2021 (EDT)

You posted on the wrong page; my talk page is the "JC" in my signature, not the Shy Guy sprite, which is a file page. To answer your question, no, calling something (an action) unnecessary is not rude, it's just saying something is not needed, which I meant with some of your edits. Calling someone would be.

Okay, thanks! Because I'm starting to get so tired of my edits being called unnecessary all the time. ItsMarioTime! (talk) 08:02, August 31, 2021 (EDT)

Your edits on Chrom and Kazuya Mishima are what I'm talking about. On Chrom, you basically changed what the article already said but stretching it longer, which was what I was referring to when I said your edits are too wordy. There's nothing wrong with being concise and to-the-point without using too many words. Also:

  • "but Sakurai ultimately chose Robin instead, as he felt that Chrom would play too similarly to Marth and Ike, however, Robin would not" You added the bolded part in, which isn't necessary; it's obvious Robin was chosen because he wouldn't play similarly. Leave readers to infer from the information.
  • Similarly: "Sakurai claimed he had considered either Kazuya Mishima or Heihachi Mishima to serve as the Tekken fighter, this means he had a choice of either picking Kazuya or Heihachi" is repeating the same sentence in different words; avoid repetitive edits like this.

Also, don't italicise character names like Robin, Kazuya etc. Only the game titles are italicised. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:10, September 1, 2021 (EDT)

Same with Incineroar: "Incineroar was intended to be left out and replaced by Decidueye as the new Pokémon fighter from Generation 7, however, Sakurai decided to have a change of plan: Because Decidueye would play too similarly to an already-existing fighting style, Incineroar was used instead." - The "Sakurai had a change of plan" does not need to be there at all and makes it sound casual.

Finally, do not add information that's not mentioned in the sources you cited, please. The references don't say anything about Decidueye playing too similar to other fighters. Marie costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:29, September 1, 2021 (EDT)

Once again, your advice is taken. Wink! ItsMarioTime! (talk) 10:52, September 1, 2021 (EDT)
