Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

You're gonna have to give us more details about "what they're likely using as evidence."
In Absolute Carnage #2 and Venom #18 (it's the same exchange, however):
- Eddie: What... but Anne wore the symbiote. She would've had a codex in her.Maker: I don't believe she did when she died, Eddie. I believe Dylan is that codex. I believe she passed it on to him.
I assume this is what Arawn is referring to (they cited the issues and nothing else).
I don't think she can pass down something to him when he is that thing. Not only that, but then if he is that codex then he wouldn't be half-human, but not human at all. It's strange and hasn't been addressed since (aside from Dylan's eyes glowing black), so I think it's better to wait for more information, especially since the comic is still currently ongoing.
Also, putting it here was less about that and more because, well, it is edit warring, isn't it? They put a thing, I removed it and they re-added it without discussion.

I PM'ed them and asked them to come here to discuss. I've also added a commented-out note advising of such.
Fuzzy Barbarian is right that I was thinking about that exchange when I re-added it. Thinking about it, I agree that we don't really know what Dylan is beyond that he was is a symbiote codex, was born in a human form, and currently looks like a ~ nine year-old human. Dylan could be part human like Karl Malus currently is, or he could be a symbiote in human form like Tyrannosaurus was. Until we know for sure, I agree that it should be taken out and apologize for edit-warring.
Cool, I'll change the comment so people know they can update it once more information is available.
Arawn999 added Half-Human Hybrid to Absolute Carnage and I deleted it because I felt it was Speculative Troping. It may or may not be — I think they're taking something literally and ignoring the sentence immediately after what they're likely using as evidence, and it's better to wait until the thing is made clearer — but they re-added it without discussion.
