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)

:Verify is plenty useful; you were just using it backwards. Stick it in when you doubt info someone else has posted, but you should never post info that you yourself doubt. Also, just because you make a mistake or two doesn't mean you're not wanted. I'm sorry if I've pissed you off - I was just trying to explain why a blank page was more beneficial to the end user in that case. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 04:49, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
 
 
::Based on your response, I can't tell if you don't understand what I'm saying or if you do understand and just don't like it. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 21:53, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
