I am getting these stats from other Wikipedias and I the only stats I've actually "changed" were the 1998 Godzilla's and I only upped the size by (less than) a meter judging off what I heard. Everything else were just add-ups from other Wikipedias I've been on.
- There is no reason to decrease the '98 Godzilla's height to 55 meters when we have a source attached that explicitly says 56. Again, our numbers are corroborated by official (mostly Japanese) sources, they don't need to be changed with Wikipedia information. Les (main | talk) 21:20, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
- ...I never decreased it. I increased it from 54 meters to 55 meters. I never saw it at 56 meters.
- Either way, the point is that you can't change a sourced stat. If you want to contest the numbers we use with actual sources, then that's a different conversation. But as it stands, there is no reason to be changing things just because another website uses something else. Les (main | talk) 21:39, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
- 1. I got the '98 Zilla stats from the official Wikizilla YouTube channel that seemed more reasonable to me than 54 meters (tall) and 90 meters (long). 2. I never actually changed anything else and only added extra stats on that I heard/saw.
- Our YouTube video says "~55 meters" as a conversion of 180 feet, but we've since found that the official approximation is 54 meters, hence the page and its source. There were other stats which were changed, like Zilla. His stats are also confirmed and sourced, and are independent from the 1998 Godzilla's. The stats you added to the other pages were also unsourced, and therefore removed. I reiterate, if you are going to change or add information, provide reliable sources or else they will be reverted.
