Also, the argument of "Even if you can move and have infinite speed inside a void doesn't mean you'll keep it when entering space-time" makes no sense.
If you can already survive and thrive in an environment worse than one with space-time, why would you suddenly be downgraded and constricted by...
Gohan is 4-B. Tagoma was repeatedly stated to "Match Gohan at his peak", which at the time was Buu Saga Ultimate Gohan, and he was still holding back his power when those statements appear.
Doesn't matter if you think it doesn't make sense, it's the truth.
Also, a lot of the profiles here do have plenty of jokes in them. The King Crimson profile for JoJo has some joke pics and gifs in the gallery. I've seen silly fanart or artwork in other profiles' galleries, etc.
"Me, as usual, given that most staff members do not patrol the edits, and given just how massive my workload already is, I am allergic to anything that significantly increases it even further."
Ant. You don't need to patrol anything further. This only happens because you impose the need on...
For instance of what I mean, this SMT profile wouldn't suddenly become an unreliable mess with no seriousness or analysis behind it. It would just have a joke caption on it, something along the lines of "No one does battle with God like Gaston!".
Of course we have ways of keeping it under control.
It is very easy to determine what counts as crude or derrogatory.
And no, I'm sorry. You are using a slippery slope apocalyptic argument that is not founded in reality.
And I don't think you understand. Nobody wants to make joke profiles. We...
Silly does not equal bad. I like that our hobby is silly.
"I continue to maintain that it is an extremely bad idea to completely let go of any semblance of control in any area, as it has proven to usually lead down bad paths."
Ant, nobody is talking about this, seriously. Everybody is being a...
I'm sorry, but the wiki back in 2014 was not what it was now. Literally every other profile was full of profanity and derrogatory jokes.
You cannot compared the state in which it was when you started cleaning it up with now.
Also, a moment of introspection:
We're a wiki dedicated to charting the estimated power levels of fictional characters from various series, through a mixture of detailed analysis that often not even the original authors put forth, mathematical calculations that often employ scaling scenes down...
What drastic changes? What uncontrollable consequences?
Everyone is just talking of allowing harmless quirky jokes on profiles. That isn't a drastic change that will allow uncontrollable consequences. Nobody is perceiving this like that.
Ant, this is just a slippery slope argument. That tends to be a severe overreaction thinking that one thing will lead down a spirall of disaster that we'll never be able to recover from.
Of course regulations and guidelines will continue to exist.
You seem to be under the impression that...
The Madoka Magica wiki is another example of a wiki that has a lot of humor and doesn't take itself too seriously. And it doesn't stop being one of the best sources of information for the series just because of it.
Sense of humor is subjective, Antvasima. Just because it doesn't appeal to you doesn't mean it doesn't have any appeal.
And you don't have to monitor it, seriously.
It is painfully obvious that it isn't literal. The dimension is a mental reflection of Dante's subconscious traumas, created by a demon named Nightmare. It isn't physical.
