Welcome aboard Carcass! 😉

So yeah, I'm sorry to say, the aforementioned articles I've listed, should be changed.

@Clara Sirius Actually, I do assume he documented the Mutant Physiology under Monster Physiology, so he is correct there. The point is, an Empowered Subject is not a Mutant, but a Mutant is a monster. Is a Metahuman an Empowered Subject? Yes. But are they Mutants? No.

If this is how terms are used then and there, as well as Marvel, then I can pretty much say, there are contradicting cultures and fantasies going on. This is why it is a fact that defining words and terms, can be abysmal and contradicting. I would rather that terminology didn't exist then, if that's how certain people define and alter word definitions to fit their needs.

The reason why I have documented Empowered Subject Physiology in the first place, is that I am dividing what should be classified as a Mutant, and what is an Empowered Subject. I also made no secret that Marvel's usage of Mutants for Humans that have X-Genes, should've been called either X-Humans, X-Gene Humans, or even X-Gene Carriors instead. Division exists for a reason, and there are times where either of them are needed, and where other instances mustn't. Division is this case, should be alright.

@Clara Sirius To be honest, while very few instances might be okay for mixing terminologies, sometimes combining terms can be a bad thing, otherwise definitions will happen to contradict themselves. For the Mutant term, its the same logic here. For a person to be an Empowered Subject of the rational category, a Human has to retain their humanity as long as they are going through a micromutation, and that's how a rational empowered human is developed.

For a person to become a Mutant (which is again a monster) would have to go through a dangerous and painful mutation, (or to level with you, known as macromutation), which results in losing what race they should be (humanity), losing their form into a monstrous, hideous form. And to be more generalistic, there is a fine line between what is a Mutant, and what is an Empowered Subject.

@Clara Sirius @Yagworm @RyanKraftBR

Eh, sorry, still disagree. The terminology for those sort of Metahumans in Marvel, is contradictory as well, combined with the fact that it is unofficial in terms of real life.

I have to say, that word defining is pretty much a disastrous mess in recent years, and it should've been improved in recent years. If Empowered Subjects are Mutants, then why are Mutants within the Resident Evil series, Sunset Overdrive, the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. franchise, the System Shock series, etc, pretty much monsters?

And if those aren't Mutants, then I don't know what is.

To be honest with you though, what I am saying in terms of the differences of what is a Mutant and Empowered Subject, is not really an opinion, it is a fact.

BTW, my Christmas is going great. 😉

With all due respect @Clara Sirius, @RyanKraftBR, and @Yagworm, I disagree. There is a fine line between what are mutants, and what are empowered subjects. It makes no sense that a term for a monster is used for an empowered human. Micromutations is a type of mutation that is on a small-scale, and it can be visible too within the rational category. But when it comes to extreme ones, which is mutation, then that's when the subject when becoming a Mutant.

In this day and age, it is a time where word definitions are manipulated when it suits other people. Words should be left at a 100% accurate definition, and that should be it.

The worst-case scenario is that the term social justice warrior is distorted by some sort of heartless demagogue into being a negative term, when it shouldn't be. This is how it really feels like when I think of the term Mutant being used on various subject races, where it mustn't fit in. If I had any influence, and while it may sound vindictive, I would make changing definitions to words capriciously and arbitrarily, illegal unless it should be under lawful consent to do so. I just find it really frustrating that this is also an IRL issue that refuses to go away, and now it has become the norm when it shouldn't be.

There needs to be a new wave of measures to differentiate things.

I admit though, this poll is poorly executed.

What about my reply and statement about voting corrupt people out and/or making the authority positions temporary rather than permanent?

Many thanks. 😉

Unfortunately yes.

With all due respect, encyclopedias/wikis are all not about what is needed or what shouldn't, we can document anything on them as we want, as long as they fit that domain is some cases depending on what the encyclopedias/wikis revolve around.

And BTW, I was talking about advocating for balancing both order and freedom in real life and on websites, not about as a power. There may be overly specific articles that are badly done, but that is more in line of not paying attention to the quality of how something is not bothered to look over.

What you said still doesn't change the fact that this is wrongful bias. Besides, some badly documented powers shouldn't be deleted, because some have good merit and it'll be such a waste to delete them, with all the work put into them flushed down the toilet. This is what I have zero respect for. At the end of the day, overly specific things, quality wise, should not dictate that they are needless, there is no evidence to prove otherwise that they are necessarily needless, or not needed. Its about our own will if we can personally add them, if we choose to or not. In that regard, its about choice, not about what is tabooed to be allowed. Something like that forbidden to go on just because of being overly specific, even though it can be well done, is just insanely absurd.

Its just wrongfully biased.

DYBAD, in a situation where we have certain select people in charge on this wiki that might possibly abuse their position, we and/or even the FANDOM site as a whole, can create a system to vote people an abusive person in charge out, as well as/or even, instead of having their position permanent, it'll be temporary, lasting over half a year 'till it expires. This can make the FANDOM Wikis, even this one, much better as well.

You mean them being fan-based? Yeah.
