He is our forum system manager, not the owner. We pay him to handle our most difficult system management tasks for this forum. He should definitely not be disturbed.

That looks like a good example, if the gif file can be made large enough, yes.

I think that the Hulk performs a much more extreme and visible transformation than the Saiyans.I once suggested a Kratos gif, Ant rejected that, so I recommended that the MCU Hulk GIF be used instead. Much more crisp.

Hmm. The problem is that Goku is visually very barely transforming his body.

Well, I suppose that it works for rage power instead, especially if Banner's iconic "I am always angry" phrase can be subtitled into the animation or displayed via audio.

I think that this is an excellent-looking example animation for our Attack Reflection page that looks better and is more easily understood than the currently used one in any case.

You uploaded the file in MP4 weirdly.No problem at all.
I hope that it can be displayed at a larger size than the GoW attack reflection gif as well.
I honestly disagree, given all the reasons I, Planck and Pariah have stated, but I digress.
Doesn't really matter in all honesty.
First thing you see when you look up Transformation on the wiki is the power itself, and Goku's page.
Page itself says you don't need the entire body to transform, only parts of it. In which case, Goku would undeniably be far more popular.
That could work.

also, Goku has the Ozaru, so an extreme transformation is not a problem

Hmm. I just uploaded the file in the same format as it was displayed in Imgur. Would you be willing to update it to a GIF format instead please, @Deagonx ?
Well, the animation is larger, it is Meliodas' signature ability, and it is easily understood by our visitors, so I think that it is better.
Yes, but the idea of transformation itself is more somebody with a single or very limited transformations, similarly to a werewolf, not somebody who just gains glowy yellow hair.
Would somebody here be willing to find a subtitled version of the Hulk's transformation scene please?

An oozaru transformation could work, if somebody finds a good animation sequence for this.

Kratos' Attack Reflection is also one of his many signature abilities as Pariah has emphasized here, and he is way more popular than Meliodas. Hell, even his Norse version reflecting attacks back at enemies would be much more easily recognized by our visitors if you want that instead.
How big do you want the animation? 1067x600?
You have Goku's Oozaru or his Super Saiyan 4 Transformation, both of which radically alter their full appearance (SSJ4 effectively giving Goku more monkey-like features).

Here is an MP4 of Kratos' Golden Fleece ability on the wiki. 1280x720 and 1.28 MB.

Well, 980px wide would be useful of course, but that is not realistic in terms of size, so 650px should be enough.
I still think that the one with Meliodas looks better in terms of viewers easily understanding what is going on though, and no I do not even like the character.
That would also work, yes.

Not really, Kratos is a lot more straightforward, if you want to use his Norse version for clarity we can do that too.
Nobody asked if you liked Kratos or not tho, Ant, that's irrelevant to the GIF additions at hand. Also the world doesn't revolve around what you like and don't like. People like different things from you and us both.

Okay. No problem.
Well, Kratos looks larger there, so maybe that would be easier for visitors to view. I am not sure.
I was talking about Meliodas.

Okay. That is good then. Thank you for helping out. 
All of you, which of the following three animations seems best to use as an illustration for our Attack Reflection page?

I didn't have a strong preference, but since the Meliodas gif is now faster than before, I'm actually fine with leaning towards that one.

I said that goku would be the more accurate, popular and straightforward example, not that I agreed with that specific gif but I do agreed with the rage power one.

The GIF is already on the Soul Manip page, it's at least 600px wide.

Okay, now that I read it in a bit deeper, Ant, what exactly do you take our visitors for? Do you really view them as so dumb that Goku going Super Saiyan with a vicious yellow aura, yellow hair and gaining a massive power boost isn't transforming? And even if those are the only visual cues, so what? The page doesn't demand a full-on transformation anyway.

That’s a bit harsh and I don’t see why this is necessary
He just wants the most clear examples.

I didn't say you said that, I'm saying you're implying it from your argument. Yes, clear examples are needed but Goku is objectively the most iconic character for the power, even if his isn't a full body change (something we even point out isn't a necessity on the page proper) so it's asinine to assume that the average visitor won't know what's going on.
But I do apologise if I came off too harsh. It's just a rather frustrating back-and-forth.

Images for P&A pages should be blatant to the point they don't need context to explain a power, we're looking for something that illustrates them well to begin with, rather than a mere example.
Kratos doesn't appear to be a good example for these purposes as the amount of attacks taken isn't equal to the amount of attacks actually reflected, and I'd rather avoid potential misunderstandings of characters merely assimilating attacks then shooting a wave of energy from that as attack reflection.
Meliodas' case is quite better TBH, although I think we'd be better with a constant third person view for this power, especially with the lack of audio.
