Sorry for having brought up the topic initially too (lol...). I noticed it before because the bodies of Koushiro and Mimi's articles, for example, mention them being "sixteen" even though "official" ages hadn't actually been given (and noted the school system chart linked in 'notes' on all of their articles too, since that would have applied to Hikari/Kari's age, etc. as well)

ex. Mimi's article - "In 2005, Mimi is now 16 years old and"... Koushiro's article - "In 2005, Izzy is 16 years old and"...

I think maybe it was confusing some fans within the "fandom" because I've often seen comments like ("aren't they only 16 in Tri??") even though Taichi himself was obviously noted to be "17" and a grade higher than Koushiro&Mimi in Adventure, so he's more like 17~18? (but this is overlooked sometimes it seems, or/and the others' ages/grades within the Japanese school system confuse them.) I do understand the need to maybe wait for more official references though.
