:Devalt and I had a brief exchange. I wrote that this page is categorized as a guide and must follow the definition outlined by my prepredecessor Djavin [[UniWiki:Guides]]. Additionally, the [[UniWiki:Manual of Style]] clearly states that "guides, syllabi, and articles describing PvE encounters" have relaxed rules when it comes to tone (just CTRL+F "tone" and you can see the references). Thirdly, redundancy must be set to an absolute minimum to make sure information can be easily kept up to date. I even wrote a Wiki Ideal called "Maintain A Single Source Of Truth" on [[UniWiki:Welcome]]. However, guides can be self contained, but they also must be kept up to date by their author/maintainer. If a guide is not kept up to date, it means there is too much redundant information and that the amount of redundant information should be reduced. | |||
:All in all I'd love to see you propose a rewrite of the page in a sandbox! [[User:Arin Mara|Arin Mara]] ([[User talk:Arin Mara|talk]]) 19:19, 5 June 2022 (UTC) | |||
