Recently, I was scanning through the MK Wiki for research for a story I'm writing, and I came across a tidbit in Kintaro's and Motaro's stats that I found to be unlikely, mainly that they have each other listed as an Ally.

Now, I've already corrected Kintaro's height in that wiki (they listed his height as both being "slightly taller than Goro" and "6' 11"", which are contradictory, as Goro's height is listed as being 8'2", and - before they completely edited the MK character pages - Wikipedia had already listed Kintaro's height at 8'5". That, alone, makes me wary of the MK Wiki's accuracy, but how can they list Kintaro and Motaro as allies? That makes no sense, and I've not found a shred of evidence from any official document that states that. So, any idea where they got this from?

Well, here's the thing, though; most of the characters' stats on the Wiki are almost identical to those on the normal Wiki (or was, before Wiki destroyed most of the character pages and merged them into one for "brevity"), but THEY didn't have any references to those stats, either; I don't know of any source that lists how heavy or tall Kintaro was, or who Motaro's allies and enemies were. so where did the normal Wikipedia get their info?

It's possible that who's ever in charge of fixing little issue on MK wiki, or whatever it is, that they forgot to see the problem.

Seeing how the site has people in charge of it in making sure that everything is fine with it. People are not always perfect.

The only logical explanation is that whoever originally edited their profiles made the assumption that since both work for Shao Kahn, they must be allies. In a way, the logic makes sense, but given all the details we know about the Shokans and Centaurians since MK3 and 4 developed those species' backgrounds, not to mention that there's nothing that said Kintaro and Motaro ever worked together since their species are at odds with one-another until sometime between MK4 and DA, it's probably a mistake.
