Incorrect finer details[edit]

- Some of the finer details were incorrect. As someone who has played the games, watched the anime avidly, read the books and manga, I have made some changes to correct this. Please stop reverting it to the incorrect version.

For example, Starburst Stream is not 74 hits. They were on floor 74. Starburst Stream is 16 hits. A quick google search can tell you that much, that the reverter was too quick to assume that all anonymous edits were spam, did not do. http://swordartonline.wikia.com/wiki/Starburst_Stream

Additionally, from what I have seen, the reverter has not even seen Sword Art Online, as some HUGE details were incorrect, yet reverted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Duskshadowbrony (talk • contribs) 07:46, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

During the battle with Heathcliff, Kirito explains an Immortal Object will never fall below green health. IMMORTAL OBJECT IS NOT AN AI. Heathcliff was NOT AN AI.

There were many errors, which I fixed. PLEASE STOP REVERTING CHANGES UNLESS YOU KNOW, AND HAVE PROOF, THAT THEY ARE WRONG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Duskshadowbrony (talk • contribs) 07:42, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

English Air Date Wrong[edit]

I was looking at the English Language / Cartoon Network air dates and from what I can tell they are incorrect (one day off). I'm proposing this because the episodes appear on Sunday for the majority of the time zones in the 48 continental USA. Specifically:

Eastern: 02:00 - Sunday
Central: 01:00 - Sunday
Mountain: 00:00 - Sunday
Pacific: 23:00 - Saturday

This has been true for all the episodes from number 1 through 18 (e.g. Sunday, December 1, 2013 instead of Saturday, November 30, 2013). I'm also the editor for this series on TV.com and after discussing it with the TV.com staff decided to go with Sunday date for two reasons:

Eastern time zone is the zone normally quoted (e.g. Eastern/Central) and thus followed on TV.com.
In the case where a program shows without a time delay for the Pacific time zone, the majority of zone decides the date, when so close to midnight (again for a TV.com program)

Of course, what occurs here doesn't depend upon what occurs on TV.com. Thus I am NOT updating the English language / Cartoon Network air dates without first opening this up for discussion via the talk page. --Bmoshier (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:35, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Extraneous Refs column[edit]

Why have an extra Refs column, which mostly consists of links to summaries in Japanese, in the Table? The English translations should suffice. If readers who know Japanese want to verify summaries, I'm sure there are ways to do so other than stretch this overly long page (in my opinion) with even more references. — Wylie pedia 04:10, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The refs in the table cites the director and writer of the episode. Which is a suggestion in the nomination page of the article by DragonZero. Fairy Tail Rocks 05:22, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
