I'll give my personal view of the subject.

It is indeed true that the purpose of a Wikia is to "provide factual information to people visiting this site". This is undeniable and we can all agree to that.

However, this being a game (and a socially massive game at that), I would agree that presenting user-friendly information is okay for League of Legends. This isn't Nuclear Physics Wikia or Pure Mathematics Wikia, where everything must be technical, cut and dry data only, no fun allowed. This is a game Wikia, and people are playing League of Legends for fun, not work.

So when I view it in this way, is "Cut and dry factual data" really okay for LoL Wikia? Not that there isn't anything wrong with cut and dry, but ultimately this is still a game, where people play for fun and enjoyment.

Adding seemingly-objective-but-still-subjective information to what the majority of the playerbase agrees on (Ahri as a mage assassin, Anivia as a champion that consumes a lot of mana) doesn't really hurt the Wikia now, does it? There's no right and wrongs on how to play your game, as even official LoL data aside from numbers is subjective by itself (Remember old AP Master Yi and AP Tryndamere? Remember AP Kog'Maw? They essentially belong into the Mage category even when official data says they aren't back then).

I'm fine with user-friendly information as long as the bias is minimized. Interesting tidbits that are beneficial are fine. In conclusion, you have my support here.
