"Inherent masculinity"?! This is supposed to be an encyclopedia entry? Unless Captain Falcon's knee is really a penis, why is this even in the article?--Toddcam 21:11, August 15, 2007 (EDT)

I understand that Captain Falcon is a very popular character, and his knee was his most most famed aspect, but why do we need an article for one character's forward aerial? How come no other character has an entire article for their forward air, just specials?

I don't believe this article is needed. 9:00, March 12, 2009 (EDT)

Perhaps it needs a redirect and a section on CF's page. However, it was in both Melee and Brawl. - Gargomon251 (talk) 17:18, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Agreed. My page about Ness's side smash was deleted so this one should be too. It's not a special attack. 98.117.158.220 18:52, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

Deletion

Before we delete it, does ANYONE have an opinion? 98.117.158.220 19:13, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

It might not be a Special Move, but it's definitely notable - it's one of the things that makes Captain Falcon so good in Melee, and its nerf is one of the things that makes him so bad in Brawl. Another fact to take into consideration is that the move has gained considerable notoriety in the Smash community. The information is also presented well this way, and it'd be difficult to describe the move in this much detail in the Captain Falcon (SSBM) or Captain Falcon (SSBB) articles. I say keep it.

So is Ness's side smash, but that article was deleted. In fact, his side smash can actually reflect projectiles, and that is one of his signiture moves also.
PS: PoD, it seems that we've gotten off on the wrong foot. I don't want to get in another argument with you. 98.117.158.220 21:25, November 22, 2009 (UTC)
One word: No. Smashes and aerial attacks, such as G&W's B-air's been named the "turtle" by some. It's annoying, because of its high priority and slicing-turtle sound effect, etc, yet we don't have an article on it. Why? Because it isn't so much of an internet meme as "the knee". Internet memes go in the trivia section; they don't deserve an entire page dedicated to them. This is a rather large case of a meme, only because a large amount of it isn't actually needed. We have unneeded detail on Ganon's f-air, a reminder of priority in midair, as well as a reminder of what a short-time sweetspot is. That leaves us with a paragraph that can be explained in a trivia section. In conclusion, delete it. By the way, outside of my deletion argument, why does it say that the Knee is used at the end of his combos, whereas the next two paragraphs say that you can combo into other attacks from the Knee? Makes no sense..... RAN1 21:36, November 22, 2009 (UTC)
