That recent edit on the Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia page was made by an anonymous user. According to them, Dracula reaches 800 years old during the events of OoE, as Mathias Cronqvist/Dracula was born in 1062, thus giving  1862  as the starting point when OoE could have taken place. However, I don't know where that specific "800" years number comes from, and unless a valid source is provided it could have merely been made-up.

The ending number,  1897 , is the year when Quincy Morris, John's father, killed Dracula prior to the events of Castlevania: Bloodlines, giving us only 35 years to work with between when Shanoa and Quincy each killed him.

As we all know by know, the "Dracula resurrecting every 100 years" rule has long been abolished. If we check the timeline, Dracula's real resurrections (i.e., not only as a ghost) greatly differ between time periods, most frequently happening an average of every 40+/- years (Symphony of the Night and Curse of Darkness being remarkable examples of short time lapses).

I think this user didn't take certain factors in consideration while calculating those numbers (or maybe I'm just missing something). That said, for the time being I think it would be better to play it safe and restore the page to its original state. Still, I'm going ask the people at Discord what they think about this.

Thanks for pointing it out.
