Just trying to give her back her Extraordinary Genius rating. This was the original rating:
Intelligence: Possibly Extraordinary Genius, potentially Supergenius (Significantly more intelligent than Robin, who is smart enough to invent time machines, create genius-level, sentient sandwiches, designed the Titan's Tower and make significant modifications to mechs created by Cyborg, to the point where his mods could fight the rest of the robot by itself. Smarter than Starfire, who could create an army of robots in a single afternoon that are controlled by cardboard. Is a master of magic), far higher with Smart Glasses.
And I think this is perfectly fine. Raven is explicitly portrayed as more of a scientific genius than Robin and, by default, is smarter than Starfire since the nature of the competition would require the smartest one amongst them to participate.

Her current page, though, completely ignores this:
Intelligence: Gifted. She is well-read on a large variety of subjects and topics and is an incredibly skilled magician and fighter. However, despite this she can be just as dumb and immature as the other Titans at times. Genius with the Smart Glasses.
The reason why the initial rating got blown up was:

But this is blatantly untrue. This feat isn't common sense, it was straight up a contest the Titans made to determine whose smartest and Raven was shown to be significantly smarter than Robin here.

At the very least, the Smart Glasses being Genius is ridiculous because that'd make it so that Raven with the Smart Glasses is only about as smart as Starfire without them.

TL;DR trying to give Raven her intelligence rating back.
 
Filling out four supermassive chalkboards with complex equations and formulas in a few seconds is hillariously beyond any human feat of intelligence, so she should get outright Extraordinary Genius level rather than a possibly rating via scaling

That equation feat doesn't make him smarter than Robin, just significantly faster at doing a complex math equation. Its also not a good idea to compare intelligence feats like that, Starfire and Robin could be smarter in terms of inventing for example
 
How the TTG Titans -awful facsimilies of their namesakes that they are- not having profiles frustrates me is intensified here by the notion of scaling TTG Raven's Intelligence to TTG Robin, when only TTG Raven has a profile.

It's rough, but I'm gonna make a Robin profile eventually. At the very least, her intelligence rating includes the aforementioned Robin shit.
Where does the Supergenius come from though?
Could just delete it.

Not sure I agree with this. For one thing, being able to solve a complex equation dozens if not hundreds of times faster than your opponent almost certainly makes you much, much smarter than them. Plus the competition was organized solely by the boys, for no other purpose than making the girls look worse. If they could just do an inventing competition to win they almost certainly would have.

Plus the math equation itself seems so hilariously complex she'd get E.G. based off it anyways.

Yeah she's more intelligent in terms of mathematics but you can't scale intelligence like that because there's different types of intelligence. You could also say they didn't make an inventing competition because they were very confident Robin would beat Raven

Individuals whose knowledge spreads over multiple fields of science and who vastly surpass the real world's upper human limits. At this level, many are capable of creating extremely advanced futuristic technology, executing complex strategies even under high pressure, outperforming supercomputers,[1] and even accurately predicting the future through sheer mental calculations. This is where super scientists of exceptional scientific knowledge begin to appear.
This is the Extraordinary Genius description on the Intelligence page, if the equation is something a supercomputer would find harder to do then Raven can be extraordinary genius, but not because she compares to Robin

The competition was organized by the boys though? Starfire and Raven barely even wanted to participate. This is blatantly not true.

Where did I disagree with the competition being organized by the boys and why does Starfire and Raven not wanting to participate matter?
