I tried to start a talk page somewhere. It was probably ignored.

Here:

http://bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Hand_Spike

There are 3 reasons I moved the Quirks to a single page.

1 - Too much speculation: Not only do those Quirks have no official names, but everything about them is highly speculative. Not even the users are named, unlike 99% of the Quirks that already have articles. Stuff like Glycerin and Oxidizing Sweat were at least explained by the author and have official names, despite not being shown. Also, while we do have articles with Quirk names that are conjectural, we at least know how they work, such as Moonfish's Quirk, so we're not speculating about their description. Another good example is the unnamed blade thug, who literally explains to Kirishima how his powers work

Essentially, those aren't one-shot powers that literally have one panel of screentime.

2 - Navigation: If we're going to make article about every single Quirk we see in the manga, then be ready for a TON of work. Remember, in this manga, every. single. character has a Quirk of some sort, and there's a ton of crowd shots, like the mall chapter or the Hero License exam, where minor characters show off their powers. We would eventually reach a point where the number of minor Quirks would overwhelm the number of major Quirks, and that could make navigating through the wiki a major pain.

3 - As a direct consequence of number 1, most of those articles would be stubs, as they barely have content them, most of which is, again, speculative. This is just standard wikia practice. Articles deemed too short or not notable enough to deserve their own articles get merged with other articles. While my idea wasn't ideal, I thought I had to do something or else it could become really hard to find all those minor Quirks later (because of reason number 2), and no one responded to the talk page.

Sorry if I ended up being hasty. I'm not saying those Quirks don't deserve to be here, but we can't ignore the fact that they're too minor and numerous to get an article of their own.
