Oh that part of the page was one I forgot initially and here's why: the rest of the guidebook has events that happen up through season six. For example, Shiro's page blatantly talks about how his essence had to be retrieved from Black.
It's a logic error that they put "many quintants ago Allura became a Paladin" (season three) and on the same page "in the present we have the Voltron Coalition now" (season four, where we know months passed between these two seasons, not just "many days") and then "Sincline Beast is a thing" (season six) and had the rest of the book "btw all this stuff in season six happened where it's clear it's been more than 'many days' since Lion swap lol for some it's been years". I'm extremely suspicious that they mixed up "phoeb" with "quintants" (Last book they had lots of errors.) or some miscommunication happened with seasons getting split up (S3+S4 = one season originally and S5+S6 = another.) or production (where sometimes episodes get sent down the line out of order).
I find it easiest to assume the book coincides around season six timeline. Otherwise, it's super meta for all this info from four different seasons; we can't just say it ends at season 3+4, so we should scrap the timeline presented in it and just leave season one ages up. Or else someone could ask staff (probably scared off by now) or the editor who was active on twitter (also might be scared off) about it.
The ages listed are "by season six's end". There's no definite age for the Paladins for "by season seven's end".
I don't really want to list age numbers based on this kind of speculation tho because I'm sure we'll get a third guidebook to cover events of season seven-season eight or some other drop of definite time it's been since the whole story happened or sth. And people take 1 thing they see on wiki and use it for arguments and all that. Also hopefully I didn't calculate anything wrong I don't trust myself.
If you have an issue with a page needing to be cleaned up or needing more content, it's more productive to attempt that yourself than demanding others do it for you.
Also: not every editor is a native English speaker and may have learning disabilities or other factors that affect their ability to edit coherently.
>the fandom has been destroying each other and harassing staff since June 2016 over character relationships.
>most vandalism is directly related to this.
>season 8 made all of this a lot worse.
Bad idea thus hasn't been allowed.
Holy handgrenade "no ship/fandom discourse" means what it says go argue about that elsewhere u kno who u are.
The Voltron twitter account is simply "voltron". "voltronofficial" is a fan's joke account. This is old and fake.
Y'all be nice in this thread.
I don't recall any episode talking about Lance's age. His is calculated by out-of-episode information and matching it as best as is possible with episode events. (Namely using the guidebooks, the second of which covers events up through season six and has Krolia's page say "About 19 Earth years ago, she crashed on Earth yadda yadda".)
I'm assuming the confusion is coming from Keith's trip through the Quantum Abyss? Keith and Krolia aged two years ahead of the rest of the cast because they entered the Quantum Abyss which is full of intense gravitational pull. I put it this way for other people:
"I'm no science expert, but essentially: the greater the gravitational force, the slower time flows, because gravitational forces warp the fabric of space-time. If a clock is dropped into a black hole, it would appear to move slower since black holes have unfathomable amounts of gravitational power; if you were falling with the clock, everything would appear normal, due to time being relative. [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation] The abyss is full of extreme gravitational forces affecting space-time because of the high concentration of super dense stars/massive celestial bodies found there. [See also here: businessinsider.com/do-astronauts-age-slower-than-people-on-earth-2015-8].
This is why time slowed down for Keith and Krolia and they experienced two years' worth of time (probably according to the clock in their space suit computers), while it didn't seem very long at all for the rest of the team (like a week or something), because Keith and Krolia were in an area of warped space-time and the rest of the team weren't."
Thanks for understanding.
Same. I've had something similar happen before where it wouldn't let me save my avatar/update my profile all day. When wikia updates/goes into read only mode, it can ripple through the site and cause problems. =_= I'll try to edit it over the next few days but I might just delete the post. (It's not really "deleted", just hidden to admins only.)
If someone says they like a ship don't go onto the post implying how repulsed you are by it.
It's disrespectful and needless drama. Just keep scrolling instead.
This isn't screaming; it's a reminder that this place has rules. And for good reason. All of the points listed above are things I had to clean up today except the nsfw that I just threw in because of the roleplay post.
Read the guidelines.
To summarize:
> Literally stop reposting art here oh my god. If you aren't the artist and aren't linking to the artist's actual post then don't post it.
>No porn/NSFW in any format.
> Ship hate? Begone.
> Discourse topics aka "this will be canon", "these groups of fans are gross", "it's abuse", "it's incest", "it's pedo", "staff are vile demons", etc. everything and anything y'all know it's self explanatory: NO. BEGONE. STOP. GO AWAY. NOT HERE.
Wikia won't let me edit this; they might be in read-only mode rn. But reposting art is against the rules here pls edit the post to remove the image if you can.
Hey if you don't like a ship stay out of a post about it. Ship hate is banned here.
I appreciate the sentiment but I'm locking this thread before anything spirals because guidelines say "fandom discourse is banned".
Acxa said that they saw Voltron and Sincline boop out of reality, then only Voltron returned, and then there was an explosion, and then nothing. (iirc; short on time, can't check script rn.) The explosion from the Castle of Lions in that area of unstable reality fabric is what caused Team V to jump three years ahead into the future. It distorted time or sth.
Season 3, Episode 4: "Hole in the Sky".
They're discussing Allura's choice to turn against the alternate Alteans and then Lotor stealing the comet from them.
The reason that there is no Discord chat is because of the volatile fandom that hates each other as well as the show/series staff.
Policing wiki edits and Discussions is exhausting enough; thankfully most don't bring up discourse topics here but there are so many people that have been blocked from the wiki(s) who are constantly part of hostile fandom arguments that it is just better off we do not have a Discord chat. Fandom subgroups have chats for their fellow fans who share their opinions and that's much better than a collective chat for anyone to walk into.
