How VS Battles Wiki treats feats from different versions of the same series?

5,968
4,174
The example is: Dragon Ball Super Anime Master Roshi and Dragon Ball Super Manga Master Roshi. (DBSM Master Roshi does dodge DBSM Jiren's attacks for some time)
Another example is: The Condor Trilogy. (Jin Yong has written three versions of The Condor Trilogy and the different versions of TCT have differences in abilities [e.g. early version-exclusive seduction gas from Yang Guo], power-scaling and feats [e.g. the height of the tidal wave])
 
Depends on if the versions are cannon, example Naruto manga is the source material as such is always cannon unless told otherwise but the anime is just an adaptation and as such its usually considered non canon unless for the scenes that are equal to manga making them secondary canon.
If its for example a reboot from the original serie there can be a second key like this.
There is also a case like Homelander because both comics and the TV show are cannon but are completely different they can have 2 or more keyes for the same character where one is the comics and another the TV show
If they are like variants of different universes that belong to the same fictional universe like for example superman from earth 2 and superman from earth 1 depends on how much they appear, its not worth making a page for a character that showed up once and will never be seen again so only the main superman would be getting a page
 
DBS anime and manga are two separate continuities and therefore cannot have details be exchanged with each other.

In the case where the anime is merely an adaptation of the manga, the anime can be used as secondary canon for a feat so long as the feat remains 1:1 with the actual feat in the manga itself and/or if the anime adds more details to the feat that merely elaborates it and doesn't add anything that contradicts the final visuals. Case by case tho.
 
Then what about the The Condor Trilogy case? The fans do not have consensus on the "one true canon" of TCT and they have differences such as power-scaling, abilities, and feats.
