Thanks for letting me know re: Meiko!

(I don't really have many sources re: the dub ages myself other than what's already been obviously stated / referenced, my apologies! I presume a "2005" would be / was noted in the dub of the final movies' ending as well? Though I haven't seen the dub version of Tri.)

Speaking of her: " "A: Meiko’s digivice are the same model as Taichi and party’s, and she’s also the same age as them… ” " Again, I don't see why this statement cannot be noted on her profile, too. Regardless of personal opinions, it's a canonical source. It could be noted as a reference / note under the "TBD", even, if stating an exact range is THAT much of an issue (though I've seen many other wikias do not seem to mind including estimates if using canonical sources...). Not including it seems misleading, to me, leading people to wonder if a statement was ever made about Meiko's age (which it was referred to, right there).

""Taichi-tachi" literally refers to the eight DigiDestined. They're just saying that she's a high-schooler too." (mentioned earlier)

Does it actually translate to "Taichi-tachi" or is that just presumed? If it is actually translated to that, I understand what you're saying (I do know what -tachi implies, though I can't translate Japanese text myself), but it literally states clearly "same age as them". Again, if they wanted to NOT note Taichi, they could have just said, for example, "as Koushiro and Mimi" if she really was younger - they could have even just mentioned her age in relation to "Mimi"'s. But they specifically noted Taichi, whose class she (does) transfer into, implying them to have the same age/age range. "The eight Digidestined" would also include Takeru+Hikari + Jou, wouldn't it? And we all know they are younger/older, respectively, regardless of Jou also being in high school.

iirc, in Japanese to refer to "the Chosen Children" it's spoken as "Ebarashii Kodomo-tachi" ? This is heard multiple times throughout Adventure in Japanese. So why "Taichi-tachi" then if that's what they'd "meant" ("the eight digidestined")?

(the point I'm trying to make: Taichi-tachi = presumed Taichi and those the same age as him; Ebarashii Kodomo-tachi = 'the eight Digidestined')

It'd make little sense to leave Meiko's age range up in the air when we have a good source right there, and other conflicting ages/age ranges are noted all over even this Wikia.
