Proposed Changes to Cedric’s Page

This is a proposal to remove references to Cedric being a weed dealer from his page. While the original author of his page did not write Cedric as a Black man, later fan depictions of him consistently portray him as one. This plays into some lazy and negative stereotypes that add nothing to his overall character and removing these references would be a minimal change. There has also been a push for a while to move away from drug jokes in Garages lore and this update would be consistent with that movement. I’d also like to propose removing the “selling teens fake underage IDs” grift from the list as well. This is due to the Lil’ Roadies being an established part of Garages lore and the unfortunate implications that could arise from Cedric selling fake IDs to them. Additionally this also skirts the line of what may need to be CW'ed on a wiki page (see: Blaseball's CW Policies)

This is a proposal for a minimal update that would keep the spirit of the original character while removing potentially harmful content. If further rewrites/contributions are needed or desired those should be proposed as a new talk page.
