Improve
The following are way I thought would help improve the article:
- Make a section about Shippuden
- Make a sub-section to Characters similar to the Main Characters section in Bleach.
- Say more about the in-universe Naruto, likes the countries and rankings.
- Improve the reception section.

shipping section
may i make a segestion about this.. shouldnt we make a "shipping" article for the naruto series on wikipedia? plenty of other anime have it, and it would be good for naruto, due to all of the romantic relationships among characters that fans and facts point out. but, just a suggestion.....24.185.163.37 21:16, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
- plenty of other anime have it,
- That's news to me. Regardless if that's true, we're not going to have one. An article about any pairing in the fandom would have no reliable sources and in all likelihood would be unverifiable and be full of original research. Furthermore, not a single pairing, much less shipping in fandom itself, would meet the notability guidelines for fiction. Such articles would be deleted just as soon as they would be created.

- "Shipping" in some specific fandom, pretty much by definition, lacks reliable sources and notability. Yeah, sometimes you have J.K. Rowling having a laughing riot over shipping in an interview with shippers a day after book release, but that's far from being representative of anything. What will you be able to say about shipping culture in Naruto that won't be exceedingly shallow and meaningless? "There's NaruSaku, and there's SasuSaku, and there's NaruHina, and there's NejiHina, and, well, everybody's absolutely convinced that the scenes between their characters are beacons of delayed character development and the scenes the other shippers bring up don't mean jack squat." There, I just summed up Naruto shipping, and incidentally most other shipping debates that have occurred and probably will occur.
- Until Kishimoto Masashi starts rambling about the themes he had envisioned when setting in motion the epic romantic tale of Neji and Tenten, which he won't, this is one issue that ought to remain covered only in-universe. If other pages have long rambling paragraphs regarding the arguments and counter-arguments of who Ash Ketchum is going to end up with, or whatever, the problem is there, not here. At any rate the exploration of out-of-universe notability the shipping in some fandom has seems to fit much more organically in the actual article about shipping. --AceMyth 02:09, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Neutral Point of View? Again?
The Neutral Point of View issue has yet to be solved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Usarnaime (talk • contribs) 20:00, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- What neutral point of view issue? NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 21:32, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
"Naruto has a large and colorful cast of characters, running a gamut of detailed histories and complex personalities"...seems like it's complementing the "complex" and "detailed" characters. Usarnaime 05:27, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Is this an issue with NPOV on the part of the article, or User:Usarnaime? --tjstrf talk 05:48, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- I am sure it is about the article. It seems clear to me that usaranime believes that the phrase "Naruto has a large and colorful cast of characters, running a gamut of detailed histories and complex personalities" is to complementary and should be replaced. --67.68.152.197 07:15, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Just delete or rephrase the sentence already. Problem solved. —davidh.oz.au 12:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
