I don't get the current image. It appears to be a trading card of some random kid that reads "KO". How exactly is that a power level?

A better image would be a comparison chart or even a simple spiderweb chart.

I don't get the current, either. 1.1 > 1.2 pending other options.

1.2 isn't an example; it's showing stat distribution and not comparing characters' power

Comparison featuring the guy that explains the system:

Or just comparison. Bigger, but no explanation.

[up] is good. I'm genuinely not sure about the explanation. I like having it. But the text is just at the size where I have to squint to read it, and I find that a little offputting.

To me, 1.1 > 4.2 > 4.1. That right panel in 4.1 doesn't add much.

How does 1.1 work in wiki size?

I wouldn't bother with 1.1 in wikisize, it's too small even for my taste:

[tup]4.2.

I think this looks best in graph format.

I like the graph (9) too. But is there any way we could get the numbers bigger? I can still read them, but only barely. I'm definitely squinting.

[up] Promising concept, but that image is just too hard to read. It's messy and there's a lot of distractions; the chart itself blends in too much.

I'm seeing quite a lot of support for #16; do we need a crowner to make it official?
