Article does not accurately describe the changes in Nougat that made emoji look like humans

Pneen (talk) 03:21, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As Unicode, the group that establishes emoji standards, introduced skin tone and gender options to emojis, Google's emojis progressively appeared more as humans and less as yellow, amorphous blobs.

What's wrong with this, per the source? If you have a reliable, secondary source that goes into more depth, would be happy to consider it. czar 10:19, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Some notes

For reference, there are composite images in these two (unreliable?) sources that show the blob evolution of several individual pictograms.[1][2]

Timetable:

KitKat/4.4/2013 – introduction
Lollipop/5.0/2014 – peak?
Nougat/7.0/2016 – humans/skin tone retire blobs
Oreo/8.0/2017 – last blobs replaced
