Proposed split of List of Pokémon anime characters

Inactive talk page over at List of Pokémon anime characters, so I'm putting it here as well. (Please respond at the source page, linked directly below)

Evaluating Reliability of Sources for "Battle Angel Alita: Mars Chronicle"

I’m currently working on the Wikipedia article for "Battle Angel Alita: Mars Chronicle" thats on review for good article and have come across some sources that are not listed at anime and manga resources or Wikipedia:WikiProject Anime and manga/Online reliable sources. Specifically, these sources are aiptcomics.com, fandompost.com, and animeuknews.net. I’m seeking input on whether these can be considered reliable sources for our purposes. I’m looking to establish whether these sources. If anyone has experience with these sites or can provide further insights, it would be greatly appreciated.

The Fandom Post is founded by Chris Beveridge who also founded and wrote for AnimeOnDVD.com (now Mania.com) (see: [1]), another writer for them Darius Washington has wrote for Otaku USA: [2]. At least, anything written by Beveridge or Washington is reliable. --Mika1h (talk) 21:00, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
fandompost.com is indeed included at WP:A&M/ORS. There is listed as 'The Fandom Post'. Anime UK News has been discussed a couple of times before. From what I've seen (and in my opinion too) comments often consider it a reliable source, but no one has taken the time to add it to the list. I'm not very familiar with AIPT, so I wouldn't know what to say. I don't even know if they have an editorial team, although I tried searching through the site.

Thank you for the clarification regarding FandomPost.com and Anime UK News. It's helpful to know that FandomPost.com is already included in WP:A&M/ORS under 'The Fandom Post'. As for Anime UK News, while it's been discussed and generally considered reliable in comments, it hasn't been formally added to the list. I understand your concern about AIPT's editorial team and policies. I've searched the site as well and found it challenging to locate detailed information on their editorial practices and team structure. Sunrise In Brooklyn 04:13, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On Anime UK News, they've been referred to on Crunchyroll previously (though I can't see any of the articles still up) and a couple other places like Polygon. Their work has been good as far as I've seen. Posts are relatively frequent. They've managed to get some good interviews showing some influence.
On the downside, they don't appear to have an editorial policy. Their forums aren't particularly busy and their Twitter is so so. Most of their authors go by screen names like 'Darkstorm' and 'NOEMI10' which can be seen as a downside for a 'professional site', but it's not exactly uncommon in the anime area, so I'd not hold it against them generally. Their Editor in Chief 'Teapot' doesn't list any previous experience which isn't a plus though.
Considering the standards of the niche, I'd probably put them in a category of being generally reliable, but not particularly notable. It's the sort of source I'd be confident is as good as any 'professional' one, but I'd choose another if there's a better one. DarkeruTomoe (talk) 20:34, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Eyes needed at Menhera

I have removed what I think is an inappropriate image from this article. The matter could use review by more knowledgeable folks, especially if another image could be suggested. Posting here as I suspect manga/anime art is involved. Mangoe (talk) 02:27, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gundams/gunpla

Hello everyone, currently trying to update G gundam page by adding list of gundams in the show and the gunplas released for them. I cited gundam fandom website, my edit was deleted unfortunately for the RS reason and I’m looking to see if anyone can point me in the direction of a credible cite for gundams and gunpla for the page. Thank you for the help. ParTripod (talk) 15:36, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
