Timeout

Hi, I am giving you a timeout for edit warring. If you find yourself repeatedly being reverted, we prefer you take it up on the article talk page rather than continuing to make the same edits again. Editing collaboratively is one of the cornerstones to successfully creating a wiki. --abates (talk) 21:07, 2 February 2025 (EST)


Interesting. I guess I’ll check out the talk page and see how it works then. The main issue seems to be a user called Cyberlink420, so if I can get him to stop throwing a tantrum and actually look at the official sources I provided then this should be over quickly enough. Thank you for informing me of the talk page and its purpose. {{User:Steampunk671213|Steampunk671213]]


You do know I'm part of the site staff and everyone else is in agreement that you using a ruler isn't actually adequate as a source, right? Hence why we're going to be spending the next few days cleaning out any entries that don't have an exact number available and adding proper citations for everything. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 21:31, 2 February 2025 (EST)


Yeah I know. I checked out the admin page earlier today and saw you listed there (also some folks complained about you specifically when describing to me how to use this site lol). Was wondering when I’d get the chance to chat with you without character limits. Glad I finally have the opportunity. So here’s something I don’t quite understand: if you were complacent with eyeballing official charts prior to today, why lose your cool when presented with the concept of actually measuring unlabeled charts out? It’s far more accurate and can be easily replicated across multiple people for confirmation. The only possible downside to it is that it would create a little more room for pesky debates about the exact figures to put down, but even that could be resolved with a simple “~” in front of the heights and a disclaimer above the segment explaining that the listed heights were taken from an unlabeled chart. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate you or think you’re stupid, but I find your inability to come up with such simple solutions, such as the ones I’ve listed, exceptionally strange. Although I do see the logic in your plan to simply erase the sections based on unlabeled charts. It’s pretty simple and will get rid of any need for debating the heights on that page. Also love that the sources section will finally be overhauled. While you’re at it, please finally get around to erasing those fan made AOE Dinobot heights and KSI drone blueprint heights. I don’t know who added those to the official heights page, but they’re about the furthest thing from official. They were created in the AOE scale chart thread on TFW2005 by a user named RedGoblin. They’re exceptionally well made, but they are still fan made and don’t belong on the page. {{User:Steampunk671213|Steampunk671213]]
