Nu metal band ?[edit]

Seems like Manga falls into the nu metal subgenre, considering their fusion of metal with rap, usage of turntables etc. Linkin Park who have a similar style are classed as Nu metal. Shall i go on ahead and put in "Nu metal" for the band info box ? - Raki-holic 03:55, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • They themselves state that they are "touched by" nu-metal but as Deniz from Vega stated in one of the interviews, maNga makes maNga music :) And Göksel also said that although it is some kind of nu-metal, they do mix it with Anatolian sounds which makes them quite different from Linkin Park & co. So I might also add that they are mixing rockchip-hop&rap with Anatolian melodies. (Yagmur said this and I guess he knows best as he writes most opf the music.) Teemeah 20:27, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A few of the songs on their first album do resemble Linkin Park before they changed their style. But now Manga is different. I think the label alternative rock/hip hop is very accurate —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dumanfea (talkcontribs) 16:04, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They are not a nu metal band! Do you even know what "Nu Metal" is?? Nu metal is something like Slipknot and Korn. Please go listen to Slipknot and then listen to Manga. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.231.114.33 (talk) 11:36, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sincerly, 123, we'd like to just take your word for it, but we can't. When you remove a claim that is supported by a reference source, and then add another claim, then you also have to add a reliable source for your claim. That's the way an encyclopedia works. What you and I know is considered our POVs and may or may not be neutral points of view. Only an outside source for the claim is acceptable evidence that the claim is neutral. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  23:56, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The band initially defined themselves like that. Whatever our opinion is, unless the anonym editor has a source that says otherwise, nu-metal will stay. :) 小龙 (Timish) # xiǎolóng de xìnxiāng 08:29, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Album availability in USA[edit]

I like what I hear from this band, but I have no idea how to get a copy of the album here in the states. Amazon.com doesn't have the album... does anyone know of a way I can get a copy (other than risking eBay)?

Hiya 71.38.21.102,
You can get it over at http://tulumba.com/ , a turkish online store. - Raki-holic 00:56, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Death metal???[edit]

I wonder why 212.32.122.107 changed the nu-metal label into melodic DEATH metal? I really don't think they fit into the death meatl category, they are FAR not as "hard"! --Teemeah 13:07, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yagmur Sarigül (the band's electric guitarist and songwriter) in the programme Müzik Dergisi on the channel TV8 (June 2005) answered the following to the question of how he would define maNga:

"Rock müzik. Son dönem nu metal akımından etkilenen bir rock grubu (...). Hiphop kültüründen de etkilişimler oluyor, Anadoluluk'tan da etkilişim oluyor"

Translation: Rock music. A rock band, effected by the latest nu metal movement (...). There is a touch of the hip hop culture, as well, and a touch of Anatolian melodies, too.

So on the bases of this, I re-change the categorization as NU METAL and clarify the genre as Yagmur did. --Teemeah 18:17, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite?[edit]

I think this topic needs a rewite of some sections... some bits sound really tacky:

"He was born...." etc for all of the members... also: "Let's see the boy's names" just sounds really tacky.

re-write it then. And please, if you communicate, write your name, so that we would know whom to talk to... --Teemeah Gül Bahçesi 13:16, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Page move[edit]

This page needs to be moved to maNga or to maNga (band). Editor Kww cites WP:MUSTARD, which is an old guideline that was superceded by MOS:MUSIC, another guideline. The policy that supports this page move is WP:COMMONNAME, so when I move the page again, please do not revert the move (in fact, it would be very good of you, Kww, to delete the maNga (band) redirect, because that is probably the better way to go). – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  22:23, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WP:COMMMONNAME in no way requires us (or encourages us) to use strange stylizations. We have our article at Pink (singer), for example, not P!nk.—Kww(talk) 03:02, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose we could both list several examples to support what we say either way. Bottom line is that the policy supports the move. If you were to come across an article titled ShirLey TemplE, you wouldn't leave it that way, correct? Why? Because it is not the correct format for the Shirley Temple article. It's really as simple as that. I've been working on a long list of articles that could not be correctly italicized or lowercased (first letter). That's where I came across the album article, which led me here. The idea with the common name policy is to title the article with the name that interested readers would expect to see, and in this case the people who would mostly read this article would expect it to be titled "maNga". So please help by deleting the maNga (band) redirect and I will be glad to do the rest. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  03:17, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Consider this a contested move. Take it to WP:RM and follow the procedure there to generate a discussion. I'll abide by any consensus that develops.—Kww(talk) 03:20, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As you wish. I'd hoped to avoid that backlogged process. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  04:19, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

No consensus to move. Vegaswikian (talk) 02:42, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Manga (band)maNga (band) — To be able to correcly format the title of this article, with the central letter in uppercase, this page must be moved over the maNga (band) redirect. The supporting policy is at Wikipedia:COMMONNAME. Just as we would not title the Shirley Temple article "ShiRley TeMPle", this article should not be titled "Manga". See also previous discussion above. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  04:30, 11 June 2011 (UTC) – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  04:30, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • oppose MOS:TM playful capitalization. Though a redirect should be created there (and another for the album) 65.94.47.63 (talk) 05:23, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • oppose per 65.94.47.63. I'm glad someone found the TLA I was looking for.—Kww(talk) 05:42, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose; we use normal capitalization, not fancy vanity caps. Which is why our article is Shirley Temple. Powers T 20:13, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes "normal" case is used when it does not go against policy. The COMMONNAME policy clearly states that articles must be titled in a way that would be familiar to the readers of the article, and also that readers' opinions must supercede the opinions of Wikipedia editors. The readers of Shirley Temple expect normal case usage. The readers of the maNga articles, the band and the two albums, would expect the articles to reflect the uppercase central "N" in the name. Please remember that Manga, without the uppercase central "N", is a completely different entity, as found on the Manga (disambiguation) page. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  23:38, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
WP:COMMONNAME is completely indifferent to orthography. It addresses only the selection of specific words and phrases and their spellings, not their presentation. We have articles at Time (magazine), not TIME; Kiss (band), not KISS; and Seven (film), not Se7en. You need to find a much better argument than merely referencing COMMONNAME to overturn that kind of long-established precedent. Powers T 00:44, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Long-term guidelines are important, yes, however they represent the opinions/consensus of editors of Wikipedia. Policy, on the other hand, may represent community consensus, or it may represent the leaders of the Wikimedia Foundation stepping in to reflect their opinions, or maybe court decisions, or just their attorneys' recommendations. So policy supercedes guidelines, and while the COMMONNAME policy is not specific about things like case modifications, it is very clear about two things:
  • Articles titles are to reflect the names that are familiar to the readers of the article, and
  • Readers' opinions take precedence over editors' opinions.
So not only does the COMMONNAME policy supercede any guideline, no matter how longstanding, it shows us what is the right thing to do. Readers who would come to the maNga (band) article would, for the most part, expect to find the name of that band depicted correctly at the TOP of that article, that is, with an uppercase letter "N" in the center. And it is their opinion that supercedes any editorial opinion or guideline.
Here's one for you (I'm sure that both of us could find suitable examples to support our opinions). How about our Wikipedia article titled The Beatles? That is also a stylized name. There is no such word in all the English language as "beatle". Dictionarys will either tell you "no such word", or "did you mean 'beetle'?", or they will take you right to their band page and tell you about The Beatles. So the word is a stylization made up by the band. And yet we do not stick strictly to the English language when we title that page, do we? Of course, not. Why? Because the right thing to do is to depict the article title the way readers would want to see it, and they would definitely not expect to reach the band article and to see it titled The Beetles, simply because that's the correct English spelling of the word. (Please keep in mind that case modification is just one of many ways to stylize an artist's, band's, album's or whatever's name outside "proper" English usage.)
The only time that the COMMONNAME policy should not be the governing entity is when, for technical reasons, the title cannot be correctly depicted, for example... >pcplayer, and that really is the only time. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  01:33, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
We spell it "The Beatles" because that's how it's spelled. This move proposal, on the other hand, is not about spelling. "N" and "n" are the same letter; the difference between "Manga" and "maNga" is one of capitalization, not spelling. And when it comes to capitalization, we use normal capitalization, not idiosyncratic capitalization schemes. Powers T 02:40, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Powers, we are not just talking about case, upper and lower. We are talking about whether or not to title an article using the stylized spelling and/or format. Guidelines like the MOS for music and the trademark page tell us NO, we don't use such stylizations as "maNga" (and technically, not even "The Beatles", which is a stylization). The policy, on the other hand, says YES, we must use article names that our readers are familiar with, so "maNga" and "The Beatles" and whatever other stylizations our readers are familiar with are okay and must be used. We have a clear contradiction between policy and guidelines. Please tell me which you feel should take precedence over which? – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  08:24, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The question may arise as to why this is all-of-a-sudden so very important, especially where the discussion is about how to format the name of a musical-artist group, a band, and two of their albums. Aside from consistency, since the albums are already formatted with the uppercase "N" in the center (that was not my doing), this is very important to me because I have made several page moves in the last few days using the WP:COMMONNAME policy as the governing foundation for these page moves. While I was able as an editor to move some of these myself, I also enlisted the help of several admins for those page moves over redirects that had been edited and could only be moved by an admin. None of these were contested, but that doesn't make it right. If I was wrong to go by policy rather than by guideline, then I need to establish that fact. So I consider this discussion to be pivotal, and I am very thankful to Kww for challenging this particular page move. While both the guidelines and the policy are longstanding, from the superceded WP:MUSTARD that was cited by Kww to the WP:COMMONNAME policy that I was using, this appears to be a discussion that has been needed for a long time. I really want to do the right thing, and I know everybody participating in this discussion feels the same. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  08:55, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Beatles" is not a "stylization"; it's an alternate spelling based on the word "beat". COMMONNAME addresses that. COMMONNAME does not address capitalization or punctuation, which we leave up to other guidelines to guide our decisions. Powers T 13:14, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Alternate spellings can also be considered to be stylizations, as in the case of The Beatles, Snoop Dogg, elimiDATE, and many, many others. In all the history of mankind, there have been only four "beatles". That word has never, and not ever since, been applied to anything nor anyone else. "Beatles" is a stylization based on the word "beat". It is also the name that is most familiar to any readers who would come to read about that group. maNga is also a stylization based on the word "manga". The word "manga" is familiar to those readers who would want to read about comics and cartoons. That word is also familiar to many other readers who would come to read about the other items on the Manga (disambiguation) page. For those readers who would open Wikipedia to read about one of their favorite bands, or about one or two of their albums, the title "maNga" is the most familiar to them. Therefore, in accord with the COMMONNAME policy, this band article should be titled in the way that is familiar to those readers. And that title is either maNga or maNga (band). – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  18:41, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The choice to capitalize or not does not change the name of the band; it's purely a matter of house style. This is well-established, and bringing spelling into the conversation is a red herring. Powers T 20:05, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The choice to use uppercase or not of course does not change the name of the band, which happens to be "maNga". The choice not to capitalize, in terms of "familiarity", reduces the title to that of the cartoons and comics, or other usages of "Manga" as shown on the dab page. Readers who come to this band article expect to see the uppercase "N" in the middle of the name. Why? Because that is the way the group stylizes their name, and because that is the version of the name with which those readers are familiar. Alternate spellings are often a part of the stylization, and sometimes both spelling and case are altered, as in one of my above examples, elimiDATE. Since we are discussing whether or not "stylized" names are allowed, then spellings become a valid part of the discussion, as do other symbols, like the title nrc•next. In that case it is technically possible to include the central dot, so in accord with the COMMONNAME policy, the dot is included. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  20:40, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • PS. If I could make it a red dot, I would, but as far as I know, that's not technically possible.
    • We also have the technical ability to title one of our articles Macy*s. But we don't. I strongly expect elimiDATE and nrc•next will be changed before long. Powers T 12:15, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      • elimiDATE was already formatted correctly except for the lowercase "e" at the beginning. I enlisted the help of an admin to move nrc.next to nrc•next over the redirect. Perhaps Macy's should be reformatted. I will go back and change all the reformats I've done recently if someone tells me that guidelines supercede policy. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  00:23, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. We don't pander to bands' playful capitalization. WP:MOSTM is clear-cut on this. --DAJF (talk) 00:52, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Playful? Really? If you were in a band, and you wanted to name your band in similar (but not exactly the same) fashion as the Manga cartoons and comics, and you knew that name recognition sometimes makes or breaks a band, you might just capitalize the center letter, as in maNga, and leave the first letter lowercase. Is this "playful"? or is it good business sense. I think it's the latter. The MOS is a guideline, which does not take priority over policy. Please note the COMMONNAME policy cited above, and also further down that page at Wikipedia:Article titles#Standard English and trademarks. It brings up ambiguous titles, like Manga, and stresses that ". . . if the name is ambiguous, and one meaning is usually capitalized, this is one possible method of disambiguation." We can note that this is unclear as to whether first-letter or any-letter uppercase is meant, however this is also a consideration. It still seems to me to be the right thing to do to move this page to maNga or maNga (band).

Discussion[edit]

Any additional comments:

NOTE: there is a related discussion at talk:MaNga (album) and talk:maNga+ 65.94.47.63 (talk) 05:27, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just to be clear, I've been involved recently with using {{DISPLAYTITLE}} to improve article titles that needed to be both italicized and lowercased (first letter). Among these were several pages that needed to be moved because of incorrect case appearance or some other format difference. Some of these were moved to new pages, some were moved over redirects with only the creation edit, and some were moved over redirects with the help of several admins, as the redirects had more than one edit. The whole idea of doing this is to title pages as their interested readers would expect them to be titled. If one of your favorite bands is maNga, and you opened Wikipedia to read their article, wouldn't you expect to find their article titled in that manner? or would you expect to see the article titled in its present fashion, which is Manga. It's easy to use {{Lowercase}} to make the title appear as manga, and yet to make the title appear as interested readers would expect it to appear, the central letter "n" should be capitalized. What brought me here to the band article was one of their albums that I recently repaired... maNga (album). All I did to that article with this edit was to remove the nonusable (in this instance) {{Lowercase}} and sub it with {{DISPLAYTITLE}}. The central capital "N" was already there and correctly formatted. And this is the album that maNga titled with their band's name. If you like the album and opened Wikipedia to read about it, then you would find it titled just as you would expect it to be. Should we do any less for the band itself? – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  05:34, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • If you've been doing this, you should probably stop. MOS:TM is pretty clear that we don't deal with strange stylizations this way, and the rule for honoring odd capitalizations is quite specific: "Trademarks beginning with a one-letter lowercase prefix pronounced as a separate letter do not need to be capitalized if the second letter is capitalized, but should otherwise follow normal capitalization rules". MOS:ALBUM#Capitalization directs us to override the capitalization in the source and make it consistent internally.—Kww(talk) 05:42, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Several editors and myself have been working from a list that was over 200 articles when I began and is now down to less than 40. The MOS:TM is a trademark guideline, whereas WP:COMMONNAME is policy and is very clear: "We do not know what terms will be used in the future, but only what is and has been in use, and will therefore be familiar to our readers (italics mine). So in the spirit of this Wikipedia policy, this page really should be moved so that the central letter "N" is uppercased. If you were a celebrity, and an encyclopedia depicted your name incorrectly, how would that make you feel? Your fans would look for you by your correct name, not by some other incorrectly spelled or formatted name. (You might even sue the encyclopedia.) Please, let's get this right. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  06:15, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Where is the discussion where this was decided? I think the three of you have come to a conclusion that goes against long standing practice, and it probably warrants a wider discussion.—Kww(talk) 13:48, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what you mean by "the three of you". The policy at COMMONNAME was probably the result of community consensus OR the foundation stepped in and put their foot down, I don't really know. What I do know is that the policy is clear about using article titles that readers are familiar with, and also that the readers' opinions supercede the opinions of Wikipedia editors. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  23:17, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Don't know why I decided "three" was the number. If the policy at WP:COMMONNAME was as clearly on your side, you wouldn't be the only one in favor of this move that you've proposed. It's not like I'm some newbie arguing with you, either: I've been editing substantially longer than you, and I think that you've completely misinterpreted things. If you and a group of editors are working from a "list", I'd like to know what discussion generated that list, because it's apparent to me that that discussion came to the wrong conclusion. It needs a broader discussion.—Kww(talk) 23:31, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This list we're working is generated by Toolserver and found on this page. Calm yourself, please, because the vast majority of articles that were on this list were simple cases of using the DISPLAYTITLE to lowercase the first letter, as in iTunes vs. ITunes. I also came across several articles that needed reformatting (symbol changes, punctuation changes, case changes, etc.) of some kind. I used the COMMONNAME policy to govern my decisions. Several admins helped me move some of the pages that needed reformatting over more-than-one-edit redirects. The list is almost finished, and you are the first to contest a move-per-policy. You do, of course, have every right to your opinion, whether or not you're an old-timer or a new editor. However, COMMONNAME is clear and specific about readers' opinions superceding the opinions of editors. Those who would come to read this article would expect to see their band's name depicted correctly, don't you agree? – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX )  23:53, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Move to MaNga[edit]

Should this article, Manga (album) and Manga+ be moved to MaNga (band), MaNga (album) and MaNga+ per WP:COMMONNAME (maNga) as MOS:TM allow CamelCase? --Painocus (talk) 22:45, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Source of maNga name[edit]

The Band history attributes the name of the band to Turkish slang for "cool, man." I have also seen a non-citable reference to maNga being a reference to the band's love of the manga art form. Is there a citable reference quoting how the band was named? 184.23.31.54 (talk) 08:05, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]


From their biography website: "Indeed the band name maNga possesses a dual meaning. In Turkish, it refers to a unit of ten men in the army, and in Japanese, which was their chief inspiration for using the word, it means graphic novel." [1] Depresyondayim (talk) 00:28, 22 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
