The article states that Blizzard provided some hints. It's been demonstrated that Amara actually provided these hints.

The list of clarifications is unwieldy. Blizzard provided clarification that the puzzle could be solved without data-mining, for example, and it was solved using data-mined material. There was also a clarification that Amara's sheet music was not part of the solution, and it was explicitly the solution. Multiple lists of clarifications existed, all with differing amounts of information, as they were all compiled by unofficial and independent sources. How do we decide what was a true clarification or not? I think we should simply remove the clarifications altogether, unless we can somehow confirm the clarifications officially provided by Blizzard, of which very few existed. It's clear that they were intended to guide us towards a solution, but they also guided us away from it.

The entire section on Old ideas should simply be deleted. It's not actually presenting any old ideas, but just giving dictionary-level definitions of existing pieces of the puzzle. Perhaps the section should simply be renamed instead, but I greatly oppose any "Old ideas" list. Literally any attempt at solving the puzzle before the solution was found was an "old idea". It would need to be a truly remarkable idea where providing it captures notable information of human interest. Ironmanaaron (talk) 20:40, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
