I think it's better not to post things like "Current level: 30" in the wiki pages, unless you reached 70, because levels change to often and that would result in:
- lots of unnecessary wiki edits which make the wiki history bloated
- a wiki that is outdated because ppl don't update their level.

Having "current level" is only interesting if you're looking at specific skill builds imo.

What are you thoughts?

I think these pages should be editted:
http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/PVE_Class_Combinations
http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/PVP_Class_Combinations
Can I remove the non-level 70 level mentions?

For that page, people put down the level that they are so that you know how they like the combination while they are at a certain level.

For example: http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/PVE_Class_Combinations

For Ilion Sturmlied, when he posted this on the wiki, he was level 24, so he/she's basing his/her experience with this combination and at the time was level 24. His/her experience might be different at level 70, and we'll only know if he/she edits the wiki at level 70 to give us more feedback on the combination at a higher level.

This page might be outdated due to lack of updates, especially if Ilion Sturmlied (not picking on you, just using it as an example) reached level 70 and didn't edit his section. BUT, we still have the information of his experience when he was at 24 which I think is still valuable.

I also still suggest adding level 70, when the next expansion comes out, the wiki will have to have a major edit just to add in all those level 70 text so as not to confuse the reader of the level.

IMO. 8o

That's what I meant with "Having "current level" is only interesting if you're looking at specific skill builds imo.".
In that case, I think it should be renamed to something that doesn't imply it's their current level, but the level that goes with those specs.
