User talk:Arima

First, thank you for editing the TWC Wiki.

I've noticed you've created a number of pages comparing different units to each other. To be brutally honest it is better for information of this kind to be put on individual unit pages, in keeping with the attempt at a system we already have. (I say attempt deliberately as no system on the wiki is yet universal.) Therefore, could you please edit individual unit pages rather than making A vs B vs C articles? It would be much appreciated. If an article for a unit doesn't yet exist, as is the case for many FOTS units, then you can of course create it yourself. I didn't delete the comparison and "analysis" articles at once, as I do not believe in deleting anything except spam without warning.

Is that really okay? Because a Comparative Analysis is derived from personal research and opinion. And Official Information and Personal Input should be kept separate.

I used the example provided by this wiki as a basis for my approach.

A list of unit stats isn't really opinion, so certainly goes in individual unit pages. Likewise with directly comparing two/three kinds of marines. Fact is Fact wherever it comes from. See the ETW unit pages, which have an "overview" and a "details" section (some have tactics as well but I'm eventually going to merge those with "details". The overview is the official in-game description, and the details section is for literally everything else. A page that is titled "analysis..." really should be avoided.

(NB, just because something is the case on one wiki doesn't necessarily mean it is the same for all others ;)) Tango12345 05:21, 19 October 2012 (MDT)
