Perfect Repair

Fragment of a discussion from User talk:Yinato

You're also missing the word "attempt." And even if they somehow interpret it the wrong way through skimming, it's their fault for not reading the next few bullet points.

You're making quite a few number of assumptions about the readers you know.

The only assumption I'm making is that we can't assume anything about the reader's knowledge upon reaching this page.

I'll be blunt since you seem to be missing the point. Your argument of "skimming" is moot since they could skip over the extra lines that you'd make anyway. If a person is given an instruction manual, skims it, and ends up fucking up because they missed a detail that was on the same page, is the fault on the reader or the writer of the instruction manual? Again, all the details regarding perfect repairs are on the page, but whether visitors decide to read it in its entirety is out of our control.

Is it the fault of the reader that no one reads the EULA for any game?

It's the job of the writer to make sure that the important points are put in front, with the smaller details out of the way for those interested.

That's a terrible comparison. No one reads those because almost no one cares. However, in the case of this wiki, people come here purposely looking for information. If someone were interested in learning how repairs work, but fails to read the whole article, then it is his fault.

Things that would be our fault would be things like poor wording that leads to misunderstandings, poor layout that makes information hard to find, or straight up wrong information.

Once again...completely missing the fucking point e-e...


Also, it technically and legally is the user's fault, so yeah.

Yinato (talk)19:09, 20 December 2014

Ha, good luck trying to hold up a EULA with anything questionable in court.

Either way, it's pretty clear that out of the 3 people that actually care about this page, I'm in the minority here. Therefore, I have no choice but to back down.

You have no idea how the legal system works do you?

Once again, for the 3rd time (in this thread alone).
