I have reverted your edit to Belief Makes You Stupid

The page text specifically states "all versions" of Fullmetal Alchemist, not a single version, so pointing to a single version instead of the disambiguation page is not desired on this page.

If we wanted to blindly replace all of the links, we would have run a bot job.

This isn't the first time that I've mentioned this to you. MOD: Please be more careful when you replace disambiguation links.

Sorry, it was an accidental error. I will try to not do this again.

Regarding your edit this morning to Tricked-Out Gloves: Does Roy Mustang only have the gloves with an alchemical circle on them in the manga? Are they completely missing in every other version of Fullmetal Alchemist? Do you even know?

Similarly, your edit this morning to Chekhov MIA strongly implies that Ed and Al have a different father in every other version than the manga.

We told you to stop this shit. You haven't. So we are stopping you. Welcome to first your ban, and second your loss of automoderated privileges. Be aware that doing sufficient research to confirm your edits are correct and just not brainless autochanging for the sake of changing things may take an excessive amount of time. Your edits may not get through moderation very quickly.

Considering that you apologized for your actions and then repeated them less than 21 hours later, your apology is worth nothing.

You will need to re-earn our trust after you are able to edit the wiki again. This will not be a short process.

Gotta agree with my fellow mods here. If I did this, I would have my knuckles rapped and I would deserve it. Despite our more lax stance on citation compared to a place like Wikipedia, we still expect a bare minimum of baseline facts to be established that can be confirmed with a working brain and eyes because we do strive to at least be objective and accurate in report on facts.


Changes just to change things with little more than "trust me bro" don't cut it, especially, when these are edits about things where you cannot cite proof for the changes as accurate nor wish to try to assure us your edits are made in good faith.

A lot of tropes are common between adaptations and the original source. Because adaptations are the same story told in a different media, or in a different pace, or in a different perspective.

I see no implication of ambiguity about who Ed's father is when I made that change. When the 2003 anime adapted it, they were adapting a element of the manga. So it was a manga trope. Bu there is also a videogame, and a live-action movie, and Brotherhood who is also another adaptation. All of those, he is their dad because he is their dad in the manga. I see no reason to point out to a disambiguation/franchise page when the trope comes from the original source.

Okay, fair enough. That said, if for no other reason than to avoid further conflicts, note this fact at least in your edit reasons from now on to establish your motives and establish good faith behind your contributions. Remember, it may be clear to you, but not everyone else, so make it clear to everyone else who is flying blind if the edit could cause the remotest issue.
