:Please don't accuse people of trying to turn things into personal drama (which is "bad faith"), it was just a question. It's a false accusation when I hate drama and would rather limit my contact with you, I talk to you for the sake of bettering the wiki, not because I'm trying to instigate shit. And I'd argue that because I went more in-depth, talking more about the specifics of the misspelling and where it appears in each version (as the PlayStation 3 and 4 versions could technically be seen as being "the North American version of KH2"), it qualifies for Trivia, as it became too lengthy to fit in the introduction of the article.

::"It's a false accusation when I hate drama" | |||
:::"I don't know why you insist" is blatantly framing the issue as personal drama, when this was a black-and-white wiki policy issue. You chose to frame this in an accusatory, dramatic way -- take ownership of that. | |||
::"the PlayStation 3 and 4 versions" | |||
:::They could not, because Kingdom Hearts II was never released for any system but the PS2. The wiki (at least per direction, if not always practical effect) specifically refers to the original NA release of KH2 when talking about the north american version of KH2. If you find articles using "NA release of KH2" to refer to KH2.5's KH2FM, those are errors. | |||
::"it qualifies for Trivia" | |||
:::The wiki's longstanding consensus policy is that if a note placed within a trivia section ''can'' be covered elsewhere in the article, it ''must'' be. Trivia sections are ''only'' to be used for information that is worth communicating to the reader, but ''absolutely cannot'' be made to fit in any of the existing sections. The wiki has a longstanding directive to reduce or eliminate trivia sections as much as possible. The misspellings can be covered as alternate names in the lead -- ergo, that's where they go. If necessary, they could also go in a design section, or be a ref note in the lead rather than plain text (as I did with Yuffie, as that one was less in-universe), but they have a ''valid'' place to go that's not a trivia section.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 19:55, 23 October 2018 (UTC) | |||
