Please don't add information to an article unless you know it's true. We all '''suspect''' that a lot of information that was true about 40d is true about 0.31, but for most of it we don't '''know'''. So for information that '''might''' be true, look at the 40d article. For information that you're '''sure''' is true, put it in the 0.31 article. From the comments you added, it became clear that most (if not all) of the things you copy/pasted are things you '''suspect''' are true. What has this edit accomplished? You've taken dubious information from an area where it's visibly questionable (but still useful!) and copied it into an area reserved for facts. You've made it look more accurate than it really is. Please don't do that. The blank articles already link to the questionable information, so people can find it if they want to see it. The difference is that way they know the information might be inaccurate. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 02:59, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Unverified information from 40d[edit]

Please don't add information to an article unless you know it's true. We all suspect that a lot of information that was true about 40d is true about 0.31, but for most of it we don't know. So for information that might be true, look at the 40d article. For information that you're sure is true, put it in the 0.31 article. From the comments you added, it became clear that most (if not all) of the things you copy/pasted are things you suspect are true. What has this edit accomplished? You've taken dubious information from an area where it's visibly questionable (but still useful!) and copied it into an area reserved for facts. You've made it look more accurate than it really is. Please don't do that. The blank articles already link to the questionable information, so people can find it if they want to see it.
