Remove extraneous Super Smash Bros. conversations from articles' main body
The title's unwieldy, but this proposal is specifically covering the Snake's codec conversations and Palutena's Guidance conversations. These conversations are charming bits of dialog between Snake/Pit and their advisers, providing tidbits and small background information on whichever character they're talking about. However, these conversations really don't provide anything groundbreaking, usually saying things that aren't relevant or would have already been mentioned, and yet, all articles have the Snake conversations and the Palutena ones are steadily being added as well. There's really nothing substantial that they're adding; right now, all they're doing is contributing to the mass of headers within the Smash sections. At best, they should be relegated to the articles' "Profile and statistics" headers or they should be removed entirely and kept to the lists I linked to above.

Move convos. to profiles and statistics

 * 1) I'd say that the conversations are roughly comparable to the trophies; neat information, but it's probably best to leave it outside of the main body.
 * 2) Per proposal.
 * 3) Yeah I was exactly thinking that they should belong under "profiles and statistics" before you mentioned it. I disagree that they "don't provide anything groundbreaking", they're interesting tidbits from an easter egg from the game, they don't necessarily have to be groundbreaking or be relevant or whatever to warrant a space here in MarioWiki. Move them to profiles and statistics, that's what they really are.
 * 4) I was about to suggest replacing it with a link, but that would be unnecessary. Per all.
 * 5) - Per all. The info's definitely comparable to official bios, and the less SSB subheaders cluttering up the History sections, the better.
 * 6) - Eh. I don't care as long as the wiki keeps the information somewhere, but I'd rather this than the one below, so I'll support here to just break a tie if there ever is one.
 * 7) I kinda liked them the way they were, but the proposal is a pretty good point and makes sense so per all.
 * 8) Per all, but not removing them from the article entirely, but move them to the 'Profile and statistics' section.
 * 9) per all.
 * 10) Per all. Yes, all. Every single one of them. Not a single one left. However, I'm also suggesting we could move the conversations to their own article and edit other pages accordingly. Per all anyway.

Comments
@Baby Luigi: I'm not saying that they don't have a place on the wiki, I'm just saying that their place isn't necessarily in the articles' main body.
