>everyone supporting option 3

I'm giving my thumbs down on it, for one simple reason if we go back to Option #2.

"it would also cause the page to maybe be a bit more cluttered" isn't necessarily true if you use the amazing power that is tabbers. Say you split a page into two separate sections, one that just includes the existing fights and ideas, and the other that includes whatever the profile skeleton is and filled out. I see that as the best of both worlds, and IMO creating new pages just for the SAKE of these profiles and them alone is unneeded and defeats the purpose of having the wiki itself not being "so cluttered".

And just a minor banter about this entire rule and general plus a flaw, the phrase "Some character pages would take forever to add just because nobody really wants to spend the time writing this stuff out." applies for Rule 3 as well, I'm not sure how this didn't click in or maybe Rule 3 was just such a saint that everyone bowed down to its knees without giving it a second thought. Nobody's going to make a separate page just for one character, not everyone is expert in every verse and not even those experts would want or have time to fill out individual pages with their own feats.

And the profile skeleton itself is kinda flawed if you ask me. Yes, there are a majority of characters that could benefit from this, but what about the ones that don't? The ones that solely rely on scaling, or ones that have little-to-not feats or feats in just one area like speed, and the rest is filled in by being "comparable" to someone else? There's also people with various incarnations and versions like Superman, we can't just use a composite for all feats. Not because:

A. Two Supermen are literally just God, one of them being on a layer of multiple dimensions.

B. Not everyone knows each feats for each Superman individually, not unless you're a die-hard fan who knows literally everything about the verse.

However, for the latter "flaw", it may be easier to solve with more tabbers for more specific versions, though with some like Link, maybe that's too much. Even I don't know a perfect solution on that.

'''So there's my post, and all in all I'm not going to accept Option 3 unless people have a spoken word about my compromise. If I didn't make a more useful solution that everyone doesn't like, oh well, guess I'll suck up my losses and give in. But I want to give my idea a try before everyone completely falls for Option 3's lust and peer pressure from every other user.'''
