Talk:DWC Log

Wiiki language

First of all I have no clue what this article is about. I alt + x'ed and was thrown to this page. I noticed that it was created on the 4th March 2014 by Chadderz and has received no edits since. I also noticed the use of the first person rather than the standard third person used in Wikis. These are Chadderz's findings and should either be put in a form where Chadderz is using the article to present his findings (and should be marked as such) or be written in the third person. -- MrSkopelos27 (talk) 17:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

This page is about debug log functions and debug strings related to network in Mario Kart. Leseratte (talk) 19:16, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

I agree partially in that that the first section should definitely be wiikified. The article PrintF is very similar but has a more formal introduction which is definitely more appropriate. In each case the analysis section is presented in first person in common with several other research oriented parts of the wiki. I believe the reason why is because the work is original unverified research as opposed to encyclopedic content. In particular, I describe the experimental method I've employed, which is arguably questionable. If more research is done into this, perhaps a more encyclopedic article would be appropriate. Articles like KMP (File Format) by contrast are well researched by many people and there is little speculative content (except for Unknown sections). I believe the priority is getting content available, then wikifying it as appropriate. Chadderz (talk) 21:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
