Did I put this in the right sub-forum? Or should this have been in the general discussion?
Anyway, just heard about this.

A section about "Objectification of women" was recently added to wiki's DOA5 page near the end of December, and an edit war has been going on since.

The actual section (that is currently removed)

Discussion on the section

To be clear, it's a section on Talking about the page rather than the page itself.

Ah you are right. I was just about to add the link to that section and then I found out it's gone lol.

Nah, there are also some changes to the article itself, though the get added, undone, re-added etc. etc.
see a random delta
It's pretty amusing to watch actually
"Stop pushing YOUR agenda”
"No, stop pushing YOUR agenda”
"Anita is a credible source”
“No, not really"
…rinse and repeat.

Seems like this particular editor is on a crusade and adds some <sexist|objectification> something sections to all the usual suspects.
Baynonetta, MGS5, DoA, DoAX… I guess TW3 and Dragon's Crown are next :p

I didn't see any recent changes in the Bayonetta sections though. Right now I only noticed DOA and MGS

Uhm..... so then whats the Story Behind DoA Xtreme ?

Still hard to truly put down to whether it's actually sales to reputation issues(As in they want DOA to be seen as a fighting series with a pandering to fanservice overall rather than pure fanservice) or because of SJW pressure to be honest.
