Good morning to you all.
while looking at abilities from superpower wiki I came upon this and I think I would be a good addition to this platform.

RETROCOGNITION:
The power to perceive past events. Sub-power of Chrono Vision and Extrasensory Perception. Opposite to Precognition.
Everything you need to know about it is in the link.
 
There's no reason for it to have types. Just model the draft after the precognition page. Speaking of, someone should make a draft for the page.

K. What would we use for the image on the page? Any examples or just nobody at all?

But the retrocognition does have types and they vary based on use and some are combat applicable while some are not.

The variations can be specified on the relevant pages. At its base, it's just viewing into the past. No need to make it more complex than necessary.
 
Just wondering, can't we just fuse Clairvoyance, Retrocognition and Precognition?
 
But separate pages are a bit better since precog and analytical prediction are quite common abilities in fiction
 
In general, all those powers are variation of ESP, along with Psychometry, Claircognizance, etc.
Yeah but here they are a recognized specific category of 3 ones.
It's just two application of a power same way Temperature Manipulation can be cold or hot.

I don't mind if we create a new page for this, but think that it would cause far too much unnecessary wiki revision work for no practical gain to fuse together precognition with clairvoyance.

Also, somebody needs to write a wiki sandbox draft for the retrocognition page.
 
If you do it like this, what about characters who have one of each?
Just do it like how we do for Mind Reading or make them different types.

There's a ton of ways to do it, and creating its own page just keep making Clairvoyance a blatantly wrong name for the one currently existing.

A simple bot edit/redirect for more accuracy in our powers doesnt look more unecessary than creating a new page.
