: I explained the reason a little bit in my edit. Those fields, at least for now, require exact values. The reason is because they add entries to properties. For example: [[property:transistor count]] which is a [[Special:Types/Number]]. This means if we set the value to ">1,000" instead of "1,000", it will not understand it's a number and think the value is invalid. This would prevent us from querying those values, for example: <source enclose="none">{{#ask:[[name::A12X Bionic]]|mainlabel=-|?transistor count=}}</source> = {{#ask:[[name::A12X Bionic]]|mainlabel=-|?transistor count=}}. We might need to add a miscellaneous fields next to those values to be able to add notes like "(estimate)" but currently that's not possible without breaking those values. --[[User:Inject|Inject]] ([[User talk:Inject|talk]]) 15:49, 5 November 2018 (EST)

Why alter the transistor count and remove 'estimate' for die area in the A12X article? Bonusround (talk) 02:56, 5 November 2018 (EST)

I explained the reason a little bit in my edit. Those fields, at least for now, require exact values. The reason is because they add entries to properties. For example: property:transistor count which is a Special:Types/Number. This means if we set the value to ">1,000" instead of "1,000", it will not understand it's a number and think the value is invalid. This would prevent us from querying those values, for example: {{#ask:[[name::A12X Bionic]]|mainlabel=-|?transistor count=}} = 10,000,000,000. We might need to add a miscellaneous fields next to those values to be able to add notes like "(estimate)" but currently that's not possible without breaking those values. --Inject (talk) 15:49, 5 November 2018 (EST)
