It was fun pulling together disparate bits of information to make even this much sense of them in a consistent whole.
I'm sorry, I just had to add a little of my own upon seeing that.

If anyone has time and wants to fill out the height fields for characters, I found an amazing resource:
Character Design References: Art of Animation
The images are linework showing the characters in various poses, but there's almost always one image which shows the characters on the same line, so you see their relative heights. Most of them have at least one number, so you can count the pixels and measure the rest. For instance by taking Hikaru's height off the wiki,
I can then measure that Clef is, well, just shy of 4 feet tall (excluding the horn thingy).
And then it says it has sources from
Settei Dreams. So that's what the linework references are called, settei. This website is a little easier to use than the first, but I see the their version of Orange Road is lacking the height chart that the other website had. Both look like very useful sites for the metadata.

And something has the wiki borked right now -- I'm getting "Something Went Wrong" pages with the tiny little note at the bottom "Error 503 Backend fetch failed". This isn't affecting ATT, so it looks like it might be specific to us.

So... we got a random new user registered, "AwesomeSauceArchived". I'd block him with the "Not invited" notice, but I don't have the rights.
