The IRM is not a solution to insensitive content; rather, all contributors here should take seriously the reasons being brought up for the editing of aspects of the page. I appreciate the detailed and thoughtful responses throughout this thread. I know how much effort that requires and why historical context might come up, but this platform is not conducive to broader discussion than specific proposals and their critiques

hello everyone, mod Sav here. I'd like to encourage everyone to remain within the scope of the initial proposal and not veer into litigating past issues, team cultures, or lore creation processes. Additionally, I'd like to reiterate that the IRM is not a solution for sensitivity-related proposals; rather, the specifics and goals of this kind of critique must be addressed directly. It is critical that all content be open to thoughtfully brought critiques on the basis of sensitivity rather than insulated by historicism; that is, emotional attachment or age is not a sufficient response to said critiques.

paopuleaf has brought a substantive proposal and been receptive to specific critiques and clear about their reasoning. I'd encourage all contributors to read thoroughly because there are places where compromises are being made and other places lamenting lack of the same (eg, re: the literal JRPG elements). changes to the original proposed edits are being considered and there is a lot of thoughtful discussion. I know how much effort that takes and I appreciate that, for the most part, the topic has been approached constructively.

I'd also like to just state right out that it's inappropriate to demand details of someone's identity on this platform. if you feel that there is additional context that the mod team should be aware of for community safety reasons, you can always contact us directly.
