:::::: And although you cite 3197 game pages that would need to be updated, only a small fraction of that total have any testing entries at all, and an even smaller fraction of ''that'' total have entries in which a tester was using a CPU with a speed of "x.0". The total number that would need editing would be no more than a couple hundred at most, with an edit time per entry of <1 minute. That's an hour or two of work, tops. So please be honest about how much work would really be involved. | :::::: And although you cite 3197 game pages that would need to be updated, only a small fraction of that total have any testing entries at all, and an even smaller fraction of ''that'' total have entries in which a tester was using a CPU with a speed of "x.0".

There were no active users in that entire period who believed it should be re-edited. | :::::: <blockquote>Also, you talk as if Kolano keeps lurking in a corner just waiting for your next edit but it just happens that Kolano reviewed your edits before someone else (like me or other active users), which would also purge your .0 thing you keep nitpicking.</blockquote> You appear to be mistaken - I made [https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=NFL_Blitz_20-03#Testing this test entry] over 9 months ago.

::::::: Just because we missed an edit doesn't mean everybody on that period believed it shouldn't be edited. Now that you brought it to our attention, it's likely going to have its .0 indicator purged - [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]]) 06:44, 2 May 2017 (CEST) | |||
:::::: But I understand the message. Even though including the .0 suffix would be consistent with the Dolphin Wiki guidelines, as well as being consistent with how CPU speeds are written in other Wikis, both the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylake_(microarchitecture)#List_of_Skylake_processors general knowledge] and [http://wiki.pcsx2.net/index.php/Final_Fantasy_X emulation-focused] variety, it is not how you want them to be written here. | :::::: But I understand the message.

:::::: I had hoped there could be a compromise (which would also be consistent with Dolphin wiki conventions, regarding disagreements), but it doesn't look like that will be the case. If I make test entries in the future, I will exclude the CPU speed, since based on the discussion here that would satisfy the current conventions and will be consistent with likely upcoming changes.

::::::: Okay, there's some specific points I would like to talk on this one: | |||
::::::: * Why should we be consistent with other wikis? Our test entries currently omits the .0 from the CPU speeds consistently on our entire wiki and that's all. There's no compromise nor we need to be consistent with how CPU speeds are handled on other wikis. | |||
::::::: * You keep referring to our own guidelines as if we're not consistent with it, even though we are. Perhaps we should rephrase that CPU speed section to better reflect how these speeds got handled during all those years since the way it's written currently leads you to that kind of "loose" interpretation? | |||
::::::: * About your future test entries, you should only stop putting CPU speed on your entries if/when this discussion get settled and the conventions get updated to reflect that. Even through there are intentions to simply purge the CPU speed from all test entries, nothing here has been officially approved.
