Blue Dragon

Have you heard any news about the plans to start Blue Dragon's anime page yet? Gears of War is thinking that all anime characters should have their own character page. Let me know on my talk page. Rtkat3 (talk) 7:33, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

A user added this source to put some poll. I reverted because it was a blog. Is it okay?Tintor2 (talk) 21:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, poll results from an unknown poll reported in a blog is not a reliable source. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 14:45, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Done the merge of the Rurouni Kenshin characters and Kenji Himura! It still needs some tags but I wanted to finish it already (I was really lazy). About the characters names, are we going to have a consensus or anything decide it.Tintor2 (talk) 21:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

About changing the order of the name (example: Himura Kenshin to Kenshin Himura).Tintor2 (talk) 13:18, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, consensus seemed to be to use the Japanese order. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 14:35, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Few article checks.

Hello,

Is it possible you could have a quick check over the following articles and tag them, so i know what still needs done to improve them. And make any other comments that might not be a tag please :)

And if you think there class or importance is wrong can you modify them?

Only asking because your a more experienced editor than me.

Thanks--Andrewcrawford (talk) 15:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

For Extreme makeover; dump the red links on the family names. Few, if any, will ever be notable enough to have their own articles. Also, IMDB is not a reliable reference, so those need to be removed. Ditto TV.com. Both are user edited. The notes section is excessive and needs to be paired down a lot. If its relevant, it should be in the article, otherwise its mostly unsourced commentary. Some of the location names need to be fixed. Should be using city, state link rather than two separate links. If the prod codes came from TV.com, that whole column should go. Per TV project consensus, it isn't reliable. Also, episode summaries do not need a reference, so all those lines need to go. All of the Yu-Gi-Oh's have major issues. I'll clean some and tag for the rest. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 15:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I've tagged the media list for merge - bad split. For the episode lists, I've fixed their names, and I've cleaned up season 1. I've tagged all of them, however one of the biggest issues is that they all have the wrong names in Japanese name. That field is for the romanji version of the name, not an English translated. All four season lists still need a lot of work. See List of Dragon Ball episodes and its subarticles for guidance. I've also alerted the project to the need to overhaul all four. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 16:09, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
it was only split because the article became the 3rd largest on wikipedia ;) but comments noted and i will try work on them more now thanks :)--Andrewcrawford (talk) 17:52, 6 August 2008 (UTC) Ingore that first part i am complete idiot i misunderstood i thought you meant merge the list back to media part, but i agree with mergint he information into yu-gi-oh! gx page it needs clean up anyway.--Andrewcrawford (talk) 18:06, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I wish i knew about tv.com and imbd.com not being allowed for reference just seen other guides like tat so assumed it was fine. wasn't sure since the type of show if extreme makeover would qualify for individual episode so thought best adding it for now easily removed. as for the notes trust me i was trying to think should i remove it or keep i decided for now i am trying to get it into list format i will just keep it for now and then go back later and remove it. but i really appericate your comments :)--Andrewcrawford (talk) 18:04, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
For Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, the issue of size isn't solved by that kind of split. Part of the problem is the overly long plot, and it has some other issues that can be fixed without doing a full media split. I've asked at the A&M project for someone to adopt to get it back into shape for it follows the MoS. For the Extreme Homemaker over, very few television episodes of any series are notable enough to have their own episode. Best to presume they don't than to redlink and presume they do. :) -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 18:07, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
That cools it be good to see it made better, basically i just done the lead in because someone previous tagged it say it needed, unfortunately my English aint great so i probably made it worse :( although i did say in the talk page plenty of times for someone to shorten the summaries and tidy them up but no one ever did :(. i have one issue will the project remove the first English air date which was the UK for quite a few episodes and replace them with American :( cause there was a lot of campaign to use first English air date.--Andrewcrawford (talk) 18:15, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In general, the first English aired date should be noted, not the first American. Usually the first English = the First American, but not always. If there is a reliable source showing that the series aired in the UK before the US, it should be noted on the talk page and discussed. Other Wikipedia talk pages, however, are not reliable sources, hence those being removed during the cleaning. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 21:33, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
It was noted before the split so it if is rediscussed and note din the new talk page it be fine?--Andrewcrawford (talk) 07:00, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As long as there are reliable sources to prove the dates, yes. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 13:18, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip. I wont repeat it again in the future. Darth21 (talk) 15:58, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. :) Its also good to discuss article renames before implementing them, unless its to fix a spelling error or naming convention (and then that should be noted in the edit summary). -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 16:14, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Tags on 3000 Leagues in Search of Mother

Hi Collectonian! Please explain the cleanup and copyright tags you posted on the page. I'm not really sure what problems you're referring to. The only problem I can see is that 3 characters each have their own image, which is not necessarily a violation of policy, but goes against the spirit on WP:NONFREE. To that end, I will try to get one picture containing several characters at the same time. Other than that, please explain. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 08:28, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up for not following WP:MOS-AM at all. The "crew" table is not appropriate. Relevant people should be mentioned in prose in a production section. The character section is missing the voice actors for each, and the individual images need to go. There is no media section at all. There needs to be one, with subsections for "Anime" — with the info including original airing, English licensing, and the theme info in prose form — and "Films" — discussing the two films, with the staff lists gone (wholly inappropriate - only major folks should be mentioned in prose form, not a indiscriminate list), and the image is completely unnecessary and violates WP:NONFREE. I think the lack of references is obvious as there isn't even one. :P Reliable references are a must for any article to get above start class. Hope that helps. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 13:41, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm attempting to merge several articles into one at navigation keys in relation to the AfD discussion at WASD keys. Please leave it alone. Haikupoet (talk) 14:46, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That isn't the proper way to go about it. You need to make sure the article histories are being merged in to if you are just going to copy/paste the entire WASD keys article. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 14:49, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
The plan is to convert the source articles into redirects, pending AfD. I will add links to the articles to make sure they don't get lost. Haikupoet (talk) 15:20, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't just a matter of them "getting lost" its following GFDL and not unnecessarily wiping out the entire history of all the articles. As the other editor also told you, at least one should be done as a straight move, with the rest merged in, and NONE of it should be done until the current AfD is done. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 16:19, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Wallflower

Did you do the wallflower episode list yet? I have added the rest of the names but not all of them.Mooncrest (talk) 15:32, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You mean the chapter list? No yet. Been a hectic week. I'll work on it today. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 15:40, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
There, its done. It still needs all of the Japanese names for the chapters (using {{nihongo}}), and the cover characters filled in. Also needs summaries, but that will take some time, and a list of the chapters serialized in Japan but not yet published in a volume. I'll work on the lead later today after running some errands and stuff. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 16:34, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Plot at "Imprint"

I'm cool with taking the section down some more — I'm not happy with how long I left it, either — but I think we might want to aim for around 450 words rather than 350. MOSTV specifies that plots should be covered in 200–500 words, with upwards of 350 for complex plots. I'm thinking that 450 to 475 is what we should aim for, as the plot is fairly difficult to summarize in 350 words without losing important info. Sound fair? Mr. IP 《Defender of Open Editing》 18:53, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds fine. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 18:54, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Musing

Since we now have our first FL character list, I was wondering about our first FA character article. For the purposes of the Naruto characters, my initial suspicion is that Naruto Uzumaki or Sasuke Uchiha would be the only ones able to pass the bar at WP:FAC just in terms of depth (and I would probably do Sasuke because it's already a GA). My biggest problem is that I think the FAC reviewers will have a big problem with the "Background", "Plot overview", and "Appearances in other media" format, as it lends too much weight to the in-universe point of view, and was wondering whether the format should be adjusted to the "Appearances" section seen in like Cortana (Halo), Master Chief (Halo), Soma Cruz, Alucard (Castlevania), or similar. This could then be subdivided into sections like "Anime and manga", "Video games", "Films", "OVAs", etc. The "Background" section would then be moved into the general prose of the "Appearances" section (in volume X, Sasuke's past is expanded upon...). Then after getting someone to copy-edit to death (and copy-editors seem to be in very short supply nowadays), it probably would have a shot. Thoughts? sephiroth bcr (converse) 20:40, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm...I guess I can see that. Maybe retool it to be closer to what the MoS has, which would bring Background and Plot overview into a single Outline section. Or take some inspiration from the TV MoS's character article section (though of the two, I think ours is better). -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 22:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Eh...I still prefer the video game characters format. Especially in long running shōnen series, a decent-sized "Personality" and "Abilities" section will always exist, and "Character outline" is more appropriate for that. Adding in "Plot overview" to that makes the section a bit bloated. IMO, I think "Appearances" is the way to go. Cortana (Halo) and Master Chief (Halo) passed FAC with this format, so go with what works. We're really obssessed with all these milestones for WP:ANIME, aren't we? :p sephiroth bcr (converse) 00:41, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm....I think those would work too, and probably better for our purposes and general content than the TV one. :) Yep indeedy :) -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:44, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Abara

Concerning the Abara article, other that it being a stub why tag it for notability? From looking at Wikipedia:Notability_(books), wouldn't applying that make 99% of manga articles non-notable.... - Xedaf (talk) 04:30, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Most manga released here can easily meet WP:BOOKS. There is, however, also an exception for manga in WP:MOS-AM . Abara doesn't seem to meet either of them though, and it seems unlikely the article can be expanded to include sourced information on things like its creation/production, reception, etc. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 04:37, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
