Wiki Page Deletion Requests Thread (New forum)

the character was in a couple matchups semi recently and was used in a tournament which is more then we can say about other worse profiles that we have kept around when brought up in this thread. Its not like its NFSW. I could easily pick out other worse profiles that are just as gross, atleast this one is used in matchups.
 
They should add them in main abilities section, also the durability and speed sections lack calculations to justify their ratings to. With that it actually is kinda of weirdly disgusting Profile.
The durability is fine? It's just scaling from this calc. The speed is weird yea. Something being distasteful or disgusting isn't really grounds for deletion because AFAIK the content guidelines really only apply to pornography centric verses.

The durability section scales to the AP of the poop hammer, which has a calc. The speed section lacking justifications isn't a grounds for deletion on its own when everything else is fine, the speed section just needs to be fixed to be more accurate.

I initially thought it was a new profile, which is why I was insisting on deleting it. But anyway, I’ll leave the final decision to the rest of the mods. Kinda busy at the moment.
 
Low quality profile:

That's what I'm thinking. Theres far worse profiles and John Fart was used in threads and in a recent tournament (in which he just stonewalls).
Not to come off as rude or anything but if one genuinely find the verse distasteful or allat, then nothing is stopping them from just well.. not looking at it to be fair. John Fart isn't NSFW. It may be distasteful for some but that's just how it is.
 
Should we delete this verse? It seems pointlessly disgusting.

If you strike John Fartattack down.... he will come back stronger than ever..... be warned.....

Guesswork???? There's literally calcs and scans to back it up.
Profile was a little rushed because I have a couple of fans in a Discord server I was in that reaaalllly wanted the profile out. There's a calc blog I'm working on that'll remove the guesswork. That supersonic attack speed with Blowout is actually like ~hypersonic, several of the feats were around like 8-C or so.
 
Okay. Never mind then I suppose.
Low quality profile:
Also, I handled this earlier. 🙏
 

Guesswork statistics and above Low 1-A without a CRT.
 
This profile is unnecessary and should be removed.
This is a minor character who just gets killed in the movie.

Not sure if this should be here or all purpose requests but this seems fitting.

there isnt a single profile for the verse, there are calcs but it seems there hasnt been any work done on the verse in a long time and seems abandoned. Not sure if it really should have a verse page if it has no profiles at all from what I can tell unless they just straight up arent tagged but I looked.
 
I've just found out we have a profile for the alternative version of Doctor Octopus from the Reign continuity. He only appears in two issues, has very little material at his disposal to list infos about him and overall doesn't match our Marvel policies for amount of appearances and relevancy for alternate versions of the characters.
Year late to this, but our appearance rules don't apply to isolated continuity the same way.
Alternative canon/non-canonical character profile pages for Marvel and DC Comics can only be created if the version in question was prominently featured in their own runs, and scale to their own feats instead of being presumed to scale to their main canon counterparts.
Dr. Octopus LITERALLY IS THE FEATURED AS THE MAIN SUPPORT CHARACTER in the first volume, he's in HALF OF THE ENTIRE VERSE by those two appearances

So no, revive this page, it got deleted through a misunderstanding.
 
I think that both sets of rules logically apply to non-canon characters. 🙏
 
I don't remember that, and strongly disagree with the conclusion that alternative timeline characters should freely be created even if they only have extremely few appearances to scale from. If anything, our standards for them should be even stricter, which is what our rules seem to state. 🙏
 

The wiki strongly disagreed with your disagreement.

I know what the rules state, I WROTE THEM.

Restore the page, we've gone through this song and dance before.
 
As far as I can see, that thread was about a story about a character prominently starring in their own comic book story as the main protagonist, which is not the case for Doctor Octopus, who only appeared in two issues as a side-character, so our standard rules should apply.

I extremely strongly disagree with allowing our wiki to be spammed with hundreds of extremely briefly appearing irrelevant side-characters that are not even from any official Marvel Comics continuity, so if necessary I will bring up this issue for consideration by our administrators, super moderators, and bureaucrats again. 🙏
 
Regardless, our rules as currently written only allows exceptions for out of continuity characters that have starred as the main protagonists in prominent storylines, so that does not apply for a side character with only two appearances. 🙏

@SamanPatou
 
How is a character that appears for half the entire comic run become "minor"?? He is literally the core part of the plot, the series, the verse and you're applying a standard meant to get rid of single panel guys.

This is exactly why the notability criteria is getting revised to remove, because you guys are so damn overzealous in characters' deletions for shit that doesn't matter and doesn't even apply for, that you actually disrepute the whole system across the supporterbase to the point it's now getting voted off so it's not even gonna stop the characters it's SUPPOSED to stop.

You're inventing standards and definitions not accepted here. Make the thread. I want to see how you can frame this as legitimate.
 
Look, the point is that Marvel Comics is extremely inconsistent enough as it is even for very prominent characters who go up and down in their tiers like yoyos, so we need coherent relatively extensive patterns in order to be able to at least somewhat appropriately determine statistics.

Marvel Comics also has tens of thousands of irrelevant side-characters that only appeared very briefly, and are nearly impossible to make a context for, and that would completely spam our wiki, and risk to create even further chaos in our scaling chains due to all of the inconsistencies, if we open the floodgates for them.

And much of this unreliability is worsened rather than lessened for alternative timelines with their own statistics scaling systems that greatly differ from the main official continuity and even less editorial scrutiny due to their obscurity and unofficial natures.

Also, regardless how you put it, an antagonist that only appears for two issues in an alternative unofficial continuity comic book is the very definition of irrelevant comparatively speaking.

I would greatly appreciate if you stop causing problems here, especially as you are not a staff member. Thank you. 🙏

He SCALES TO ONE CHARACTER, WHO SCALES TO NOBODY BUT HIS OWN FEATS. Inconsistency is a moot point, name one character whose scaling will fluctuate if he gets buffed.

Also I would appreciate if you would stop warning me out the blue for wanting to get a randomly deleted page reinstated. Wow. Didn't expect that. Why does it matter if I'm a staff or not for this purpose?

The rule never got tested for your horrendously short-sighted definition of "minor", so no, "irrelevant" isn't a comparative, it is with respect to Spider-Man Reign, and he is a major part of Spider-Man: Reign.

I didn't give you a warning. I made a polite request. Please stop agitating. 🙏

Also, I have responsibilities for the wellbeing of the structure of our wiki as a whole, and opening the floodgates for tens of thousands of similarly obscure and irrelevant side-characters with almost no appearances via a very bad precedent seems extremely harmful for said longterm wellbeing. I am not doing this irrationally or randomly. I genuinely believe that this is very bad for our wiki.
 
...Your polite request is "Shut the **** up bluename"? Doesn't seem like a valid request.

I believe this is needlessly biased policy against Marvel-related properties that isn't followed for ANY OTHER VERSE ON THE WIKI. Again, if there is a general wiki policy like this, I'd be fine, there isn't, so this is full-on bias here.

There is no floodgate, this is an invented problem that isn't ever gonna be a problem. They don't scale to Prime Marvel, so it's an independent verse. It isn't subject to Marvel rules. The point of Marvel rules is to account for PRIME MARVEL SCALING issues and inflation. MCU uses more mainline Marvel Comics scaling than Spider-Man: Reign. It's not getting retrospectively scaled, it's not using Marvel calcs, it's not using ANYTHING. WHY is it getting penalized? Because Marvel published it? Marvel published

So this is just prime example of overzealous policing off of non-existent policy points
 
No, it was a plea for you to try to consider the greater good of our community and set aside more limited personal self-interest, while reminding you that wiki policy issues are not your call to make, but maybe I should have avoided writing the second part.

Regardless, you are twisting what I said into a distortion for the sake of agitation, and you have also recurrently agitated in the past, which is obviously not good behaviour.

Also, as far as I understand our rules in the manner they are currently written, we do have general policy points about a minimum of 20 appearances for Marvel Comics characters in general, and about that alternative continuity characters need to have prominently been the main characters in their own comicbooks.

Yes. Agreed. I will try to remember and get the energy to create a staff forum thread later then. I am very tired right now. 🙏
