| I wonder, with the large critic/audience discrepancy being worthy of note and the number of audience ratings being massive by comparison (over 1000), could it be considered acceptable for the Wiki article to simply state that RT audience ratings for the show are vastly different from the RT critic ratings, and then reference the external link to RT?

Rotten Tomatoes Audience Rating for The Red Pill
Hi: Thank you for being a volunteer in Misplaced Pages!
Noticing that, per UGC rules, you've had to regularly roll back user edits that point out the wide discrepancy between critic and audience ratings for The Red Pill on Rotten Tomatoes, when those edits quoted the current audience rating on RT. Also noticing that the UGC rules state that user-generated content is "generally" unacceptable (as opposed to a categoric "always" unacceptable).
I wonder, with the large critic/audience discrepancy being worthy of note and the number of audience ratings being massive by comparison (over 1000), could it be considered acceptable for the Wiki article to simply state that RT audience ratings for the show are vastly different from the RT critic ratings, and then reference the external link to RT? (notably different from previously reverted edits, we'd leave out the actual user rating percentage.) Douglas Butler, Victoria, BC (talk) 10:11, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
Fighter generations in lede
May I ask where the consensus mentioned here was established? I was recently involved in a similar dispute over unsourced changes to the fighter generation in the HAL Tejas lede, but removing the generation altogether would hopefully end the issue. - ZLEA T\ 17:31, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello ZLEA, not sure I can point to a specific discussion. However, if you look at the archives of the Aircraft Project, there are multiple discussions about generations in articles, categories, in dedicated articles, this one for example, Fifth and other fighter generations. Essentially the outcome is that the generations are mostly made up, blurry, marketing categories that should be deemphasized in the articles. Also, if you look at the history of articles such as F-22 and F-35 across the years, you can see that the generation information has been steadily removed my multiple editors. --McSly (talk) 20:15, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
