So, up until now, I've described changes where a stat is lower than it used to be as "reduced" (e.g., "Attack cooldown reduced"), but I've noticed that some editors use the term "decreased" instead. This is so minor that I don't think it needs a proposal, but I would like to know which term people prefer so it can be standardized.

:More importantly is what do readers prefer? I would use "decreased" because it's the direct opposite to "increased" when I edit articles.

- I didn't forget, just been focused on other things. I think the only thing that's missing is the guidelines for how to use the buff/nerf icons as determined in a proposal. Polavux (talk) 00:11, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
"Decreased" or "reduced"?
So, up until now, I've described changes where a stat is lower than it used to be as "reduced" (e.g., "Attack cooldown reduced"), but I've noticed that some editors use the term "decreased" instead. This is so minor that I don't think it needs a proposal, but I would like to know which term people prefer so it can be standardized. Polavux (talk) 00:26, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
