Hilda and Hilbert's age

Could you please stop changing their ages, we have multiple official sources stating their ages. The scenario author's tweet implies that it was initially going to be 16 before they finalized the characters, i.e. they're not 16 in the final game. As an aside, do not continuously revert another user, go to their talk page or the talk page of the disputed article and resolve the problem. Don't just keep going back and forth with the reverts. Thank you.--Force Fire 10:32, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

that still is the only poof for her age if it was change then for all we know she could be older really the best course of action is to keep the ages empty. By the way their seam's to be some lag On my end. - unsigned comment from Lightning.m (talk • contribs)

Wha...? GrammarFreak01 (talk) 19:31, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

It's not her age in the final game, her age in the final game (in Black/White at least) is ambiguous. The age we have for her now is taken from the fact that B2W2 takes two years after BW, and we have a source for her B2W2 age.--Force Fire 04:19, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure that in japan calling someone senpei meens that they are older then the person saying senpei and so far the only proof of her age is the fact that she was meant to be 16 but they change it for all we know she can be older. - unsigned comment from Lightning.m (talk • contribs)

"Senpai" does mean senior, but it doesn't necessarily always mean that the "senpai" is older than the "kouhai". Just because her age was suppose to be 16, doesn't mean she is 16 once the games were released. Whatever age she was meant to be during development has no bearing on what her age was when the games were actually released (which was left ambiguous.--Force Fire 07:39, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

then why even bother puting a age if it is ambiguous? - unsigned comment from Lightning.m (talk • contribs)

Because we know what her age in B2W2 is (and have sources for), and since B2W2 is set two years after BW, her age in BW is her B2W2 age minus two.--Force Fire 16:19, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

To play devil's advocate, just because B2W2 took place two years after BW, doesn't mean subtracting 2 from the B2W2 age will perfectly yield the BW age-- birthdays need to be taken into account, which we do not know. Not stating my opinion on the matter, just bringing up a point of discussion. --celadonk (talk) 16:52, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
