If you actually go back to like 2016 there actually was a much, much better way to suggest Monsters being moved up/down.

They were called Suspect Tests (they probably just stole the name from the competitive Pokemon community rofl) and how they worked was basically if there was enough traction on a suggestion (e.g. quite a few people want to move Goldfield from B to B+ or Pixelion from A- to B+) then it'd go on a Suspect Test (usually they had 2 to 3 Monsters in 1 Suspect Test which is fair, I suppose flooding the wiki with Suspect Tests isn't a great idea so why not group a bunch of Monsters into one Suspect Test right?) and then there'd be a discussion about the suspect tests and stuff and then when the Suspect Test ends the results are announced and the Viability Ranking is edited accordingly.

The problem with our method (using a poll) is democratic integrity, not exactly a thing you'll find on the internet, like we're all talking about how Wasper is underwhelming and no higher than S+ at best and then a bunch of braindead fucks voted him to be like SS and above, or how about the people who voted OP for Marihelson? Yeah exactly this simply doesn't work.

We should discuss this more when Mango comes back (for longer than 15 minutes). It's just a concept I thought of that has been used before on this wiki.
