::Calling it "Demise's Sword" seems much more accurate and professional because that's simply what it is if it doesn't have an official naming. Calling it to the "anti-Master Sword" comes across as a little too obvious fan-made, unofficial and unprofessional. How many people will honestly type that into the search bar? I would suspect people would more likely search for "Demise's sword." It seems to fall into the same situation as the sword used by the Sages in Twilight Princess, in that we don't call it the "PrettyGlowing White Execution Sword", merely Sword of the Sages because that is exactly what it is. The same should apply to Demise's sword. I personally don't feel it clearly being designed as the Master Sword's dark parallel means it should be named so, but that's just me.

Merging

I don't think we should merge the two for now. We have Fi and the Goddess Sword as separate articles, and I think we should do the same for Ghirahim and this sword.--Dany36 17:58, 5 January 2012 (EST)

Problem is, this sword has no official name, for one, and it is formed directly from Ghirahim, for two. Plus, they have no separate existence, unlike Fi and the Master Sword.KrytenKoro 18:06, 5 January 2012 (EST)
I'm going to agree that this is fine as it is for now. The sword is a weapon, while Ghirahim is the spirit it inhabits (or, taken literally from the game cutscene, the sword was drawn out of Ghirahim's body). They may be connected, but they are separate things. However, I am not sold on the "Anti-Master Sword" name. Wasn't the Master/Goddess Sword created in order to counteract this sword? So if anything, the Master Sword would be the anti-____ Sword. Perhaps we should just rename this article to "Demise's Sword" for now? EzloSpirit 18:44, 7 January 2012 (EST)
Yeah, the name is kinda funky. :P Demise's Sword sounds good, though, so I support moving it to that if it doesn't get merged back in to Ghirahim's article. Dany36 00:39, 8 January 2012 (EST)
Personally, I think we should distribute the information between both the Ghirahim and Demise pages. It is not a large page, and both characters are concerned. Also, should it not be "Demise's Sword" or something of the like? Noble Wrot 13:23, 13 January 2012 (EST)

Calling it "Demise's Sword" seems much more accurate and professional because that's simply what it is if it doesn't have an official naming.

Category Question

Um...the only reason I didn't just get rid of it is because I tend to miss/forget things that happen around me, but why is "Super Smash Bros." listed as one of this article's categories? Did I miss something again? Or is this an error? EzloSpirit 18:48, 7 January 2012 (EST)

Yeah...that's funky. I think when the person created this article, they copied/pasted the code from another page that was categorized under SSBM and Quest Items, most likely the Master Sword. I removed those categories. Thanks for the heads up! Dany36 00:39, 8 January 2012 (EST)
