Okay peoples, our DC profiles, to be blunt, are bad as the result of being really outdated. They did not age well. Of course, being the DC-fangirl that I am, I want to clean them up and possibly revise some of the more outdated ones. Not all of them are bad mind you, just the more outdated ones.
So what exactly is wrong with the DC files? Well, it's nothing drastic but as I said they did not age well. So we have the issue of the files having:
Nothing major. Should be easy right? Okay, moving on.
The Specifics
Post-Flashpoint and Post-Crisis profiles are fine, they will still be updated of course, but quality wise they meet our base expectations. It seems any other profile I find is bottom of the barrel tier. We shouldn't have files where the majority of the stats say unknown in a verse that has feats which can be calc'd. Speaking of calcs, if I come across a feat I may need it calc'd and any supoorting calculations should already be on the pages but if they aren't, we'll need them linked ASAP.
Sera's Plan for Detective Comics Comics
I have a lotta DC profiles being made in docs as we speak, and I'll be putting them up soon. Henceforth, this thread shall also serve as a backdrop for minor revisions regarding those pages. As I'd rather keep it all organized in one or two threads than have a bunch of them ongoing at once for the same verse. I also have some Vertigo/wildstorm stuff as well waiting in the break room. Now as Antvasima has stated, statistics-wise these profiles are more or less up to par, but I do think some of the older ones may require some looking into. Basically, characters will definitely be revised if neccessary.
The gameplan is simple: Sera shall make our DC pages much more detailed. Should please everyone I'd say.
Summary
Our DC Profiles are below our current standards of quality. Not all of them. Our more modern files, such as this one are pretty good. Whereas those like this one are pitiful. So, what I'm going to do is make them fabulous. This thread is a hub for any potential revising that need be, however my primary objective is simply profile clean up. Note that I haven't looked at them all, so I do apologize if for whatever reason it turns out most of the files are actually up to speed and I'm exaggerating about the quality. Just to be on the same page.

Now before anyone asks, the much larger Marvel revisions thread will be made in a few days.
So what exactly is wrong with the DC files? Well, it's nothing drastic but as I said they did not age well. So we have the issue of the files having:
- No summaries.
- Lackluster justifications for attack potency, speed, and durability (though some at least have scans and calcs linked)
- Little to no powers listed (this is true mainly for the oldest files)
- No notable attacks listed
