:: I am also rather concerned about this, as I personally feel the edit has a substantially amount of unsubstantiated assumptions concerning chronology, and removes a substantial amount of content. I am concerned about how much more content will be erased, and how many more theories will be inserted into the text. I also feel it is made far harder to follow as it just turns it into several very long paragraphs which go on a large amount of separate subjects, without proper indentation to separate topics. It is ultimately a communication of less information in more words, due to how many details it erased and did not include. I also feel it is very disrespectful to completely erase the work of others without due discussion with the main editors of the page responsible for the content, as one should have done. It was also not the best to call a complete erasure and replacement of the work of others an update instead of a replacement, and imply you are going to erase ''all'' of their work to replace it with your own. I apologize for my bluntness, I just find this rather upsetting and am also not sure how else to put my criticisms.
:: It is not that no-one is allowed to edit, it is just that this, a series of large edits to the entire main body of an very important page, is a very big edit that should require more discussion. It more-so comes down to the specific context of this situation. And as Windrunner said, it is a brief lock while they discuss it, as large edits are worth discussion. --[[User:Firesong|Firesong]] ([[User talk:Firesong|talk]]) 19:55, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
::: If you feel there is unwarranted conjecture or theories being added to the page then feel free to edit the page so as to remove it. No content should have been deleted as the original was used as a basis for my version, if some information was somehow lost feel free to edit it back in. The entire point of the site is that you are free to edit in or remove such information without having to ask me. One of the reason why I decided it better to introduce things in a piecemeal fashion was so there would be more time to address and fix such things that other editors disagreed with.
::: As well as this no ones work is being 'erased.' I fail to see the point of being so emotionally charged over a wiki that is designed to be publically edited. It is the basis of every wiki site that work will be substantially changed at some stage, I myself have added many substantial edits to different pages on the site and since then that work has been in turn substantially changed by others, including yourself; either to remove it or add more. I think we can all agree it would be quite frankly absurd for me to be against such edits to my own work and demand users come to me for my approval on any change. It is completely against the spirit of the site.
::: If we need the prior consent of every editor who helped contribute to a page before changing it ourselves, how is the site meant to even function?--[[User:Debarra|Debarra]] ([[User talk:Debarra|talk]]) 20:07, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
