Reception section

Ok User:Haleth let's find some common ground @ the reception section of this article. Can I ask what it is about the rationales you disagree with? I'm not 100% caught up on what belongs on Wikipedia but I'd wager said edits lack consensus (outside of the editor) as well as the content being properly sourced? That said, given the questionable notability and coverage of this particular character I can't say I'm in full agreement personally. Also apologies for my flippant attitude in the edit war. zetsubouchouPRIDE (talk) 03:36, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

• I am not sure why you went on a tangent about "questionable notability" of the character, when I thought the issue before us is of an editorial nature: the IP editor objected to the inclusion of certain sources and that you seemingly supported their position without articulating exactly why. I reverted this editor's undiscussed removal of material cited from eminently or situationally reliable secondary sources which are vetted by regular members of this wikiproject. You then reverted me but did not provide an actual rationale, only suggesting that I "look at the edit history", which is unhelpful as this article has been actively edited by multiple anonymous IP or registered editors this past year.

The only rationales I could spot from the relevant edit summaries which justify their actions are "censorship" because the IP editor dislike this article's highlighting of the complaints about Fire Emblem characters in Smash (a broad topic which has sustained coverage by multiple reliable sources and are not merely mentions in passing), and a WP:VAGUEWAVE or contextless referral to WP:CRIT, an essay which is not endorsed by the important WP:NPOV policy or any relevant guidelines. Wikipedia is WP:NOTCENSORED, and while editors have carte blanche to remove unsourced or unverifiable material, the removal of citations to reliable secondary sources should be better explained then subjective declarations of "Journalism is not criticism", "I feel a good chunk of this is actually pretty moot" or "Fire Emblem characters are not Smash characters", which to be frank, makes the editor come across like an opinionated fanboy who is not really here to build an encyclopedia.

PS: And just to clarify, I am not the original author of this article or the prose that you and the IP editor are objecting to, as you can see by this article's edit history. Haleth (talk) 06:46, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
