Thank you Teh <3

@Tylobic: While there is definitely consensus that there are issues with both page formatting and FlipText (I agree with all this too), and that several of these problems are directly my fault, I think it was also both necessary and useful to update all champion pages, as many of them had a really outdated format that also interfered with their delivery of information, and standardizing them now should make editing them more consistent in the future, which would reduce the need to go over everything again. Although many people have expressed dislike at the use of FlipText and its less functional quirks, you are in the overwhelming minority in wanting to remove it entirely. FlipText has allowed many pages to display far more information than they ever could before, and without it some pages would be a complete mess (just imagine how or  would look without it).

Improvement is also at the core of this wiki, and I think it's a terrible idea to just stonewall progress simply because you don't feel comfortable with change. We're the place everyone who plays League goes to in order to inform themselves, and League is the most played game in the world, so as people committed to this wiki we need to constantly look for ways to display information in a manner that is as complete, concise and well-delivered as possible. If you disagree with changes made to the wiki, then work towards a solution to improve them and the mainspace. You've worked enough on stat articles to know what it's like to update outdated content, and it surprises me that you'd be so conservative about the changes made by other editors.

I made a move to "ultra enhance" the champion pages because nobody in years had tried to bring older articles to modern standards. Nobody had offered input on how to improve them before, but as soon as I did people were quick to complain about many things I could've instantly adapted to if literally any single person had spoken out about them at any time prior to the pass. Even now, you and other editors aren't trying to work together to move the wiki forward in a single direction, you're just clamoring for reverts of the changes I made to suit your personal preferences. If it hadn't been for the 'crats here and Emptylord, we'd still be squabbling over how to change the usage of FlipText, and I'd probably still be locked in five different arguments with people who each wanted to pull the mainspace in their personal, mutually incompatible direction. I'm not in any kind of position of authority, I just decided to do something that needed to be done for a very long time, that nobody else had bothered to attempt or express an opinion on, in spite of the situation really needing a major change, and it's only after I changed things that people realized they could change things too. If you dislike parts or the totality of what I did, don't go complaining to me like I'm some parent who's being too strict, work with me and the other editors so that we can establish together what needs to improve and how.
