Her age can't be 100; her bio says she's lived for thousands of years.

What's the source on her hieght?

[edit] Odd wording

In the triva section, "In actuality, Tanya was meant to be Kitana, but a color change here and an attack change there made her a whole new character."

This doesn't sound right, especially in an encyclopedia. I don't want to remove it because it might be true information, but it should be rephrased if that's the case.

[edit] Tanya's Weapons

What the devil are Tanya's weapons, exactly? Kobujutsu, also known as Kobojutu or Kobudo, is traditionally a blanket term of ancient Japanese martial arts, most of which are weapons combat. Tanya's weapons look like nothing that I've ever seen (they appear to be a mutation of the sai or jitte). Does a weapon that actually resembles these ones exist? The S 03:41, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

I haven't seen a weapon that looks like Tanya's Kobu Jutsu, and I think it is a derivation of tonfa. "The blanket term" problem also occures at Scorpion's weapons (his weapon is Mugai Ryu, and it wikilinks to Koryu, which is also a blanket term). I'm going to search about Kobu Jutsu over the internet, and if I can find something, it'll be good I think. Master Spider 14:47, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I guess that's the problem with the MK team's lack of thorough research -_- The S 04:21, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

I think I have seen this weapon in the game Soul Caliber 2 and Soul Caliber 3 as Taki's weapons. Im still not sure what they should be though. Jamesbuc

[edit] Alignment

It's listed as Evil, yet the trivia section says that the ending which demonstrated her being evil never happened. That's a bit confusing, so I changed the alignment to unknown. 199.126.137.209 10:16, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Tanya's ending in MK4 may not be canon, but she seems to have the same "morals" in MK: Deception, which lists her alignment as evil. As this is the most recent information, I'm changing it back. RobWill80 12:47, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, her alignment in Deception is pretty clearly evil (between her two bios and interaction in Konquest). EVula 14:39, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
