Talk:Furina (Genshin Impact)

Young teenager?
Claim is made that she appears to be a young teenager, but that's not supported by the citation, which only asserts she is a teenager, not a young one. It's not a terribly compelling citation, either, as it's just the authors assertion with no evidence to back it up. Not sure how an opinion piece writer is a reputable source, no matter who they're writing for (and it very much is an opinion piece being cited).

As Hoyoverse canonically does not assert actual ages for its human characters, nor apparent ages for their archons, any claim to the apparent age would be original research, no matter who was writing about it. --2600:1702:1CA0:9680:ACC3:8C4F:3D4E:CEEC (talk) 22:46, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I believe it now just says "teenager." As for the OR bit, that applies to Wikipedia writers, not the sources we cite.--Gen. Quon[Talk] 14:00, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Change "Furina's form is that of a teenage girl" to "Furina's form is that of a young woman" - Furina's physical form was never stated to be that of a teenager's; her height and youthful appearance is not proof of this because some other characters in the game who are the same height and have a similar youthful appearance as her are canonically adults. The website cited is not an official Hoyoverse one, so its claims should not be taken as fact. Stating that Furina has a teenage girl's body can cause unnecessary arguments between people.

 * I've went ahead and changed mentions of "teenager" to "young woman" per this request, since the two are basically synonymous in this instance. But for future reference, "teenager" was what was stated by the sources, and secondary reliable sources are what Wikipedia prefers over primary ones. Doesn't matter in this specific case since the two are again effectively the same, but just take this into account for the future to avoid coming off as promoting original research. λ Negative  MP1  18:21, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I will also take that into account for the future - so thank you for informing me on that also. Cxlestes (talk) 19:04, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
