Anchors for characters
I have noted that you have been adding a lot of anchors lately. Please consider when and what anchor templates (such as {{Visible anchor}}) to use. – Allen4names 06:03, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- Is there a particular page that should use a different method besides anchors? I've done subcategories for character lists before then, mainly to link actors and characters. AngusWOOF (talk) 06:27, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- No, but you should use {{Visible anchor}} outside of headers (which provide anchors automaticly) instead of {{Anchor}} unless you have a reason not to anchor visible text. – Allen4names 06:33, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll try to figure out the pages that I can revert to visible anchors. I've had hidden ones because many of the character names had used the nihongo template which allows for several versions of the name. AngusWOOF (talk) 06:37, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- I have already done Jinki: Extend and Itsudatte My Santa. – Allen4names 06:43, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, great! Thanks for the example! AngusWOOF (talk) 06:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- You're welcome. – Allen4names 06:53, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Prototype Logo
I want to tell you something. A new prototype Wiggles logo was first seen in Wiggledance! (Live in Concert) released in early 1997, but the Wiggles were in plain colored shirts shown on the footage. And they didn't have this new prototype on their shirts until their Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas video footage was released on early September except the black outlines were removed. (talk) 18:39, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, the Wiggledance video has the outlined logo and plain colored shirts. What does the Christmas video have? AngusWOOF (talk) 05:31, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
The logo with the outlines removed and the logo colored shirts. And that's not all. The animal mascots named Dorothy, Wags and Henry changed their looks. (talk) 20:45, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
The logo with the outlines removed IS their current logo. It is NOT a prototype or new prototype. And it did not appear on a T-shirt, at least not the ones on Wiggly Wiggly Christmas. AngusWOOF (talk) 17:53, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
Oh! I get it. The current logo with the outlines removed was first seen in Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas. Dcelano 22:51, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

- Sure. Go for it! :) AngusWOOF (talk) 00:27, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas Songs
I think one Wiggles song "Reindeer Express" never appears on video while "Here Comes Santa Claus" never appears on album. User:Dcelano 10:57, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, I can see that from the track lists. AngusWOOF (talk) 00:56, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
Fate/stay night
Hello. The thing is that Sakura Matou has latent magic circuits in all three routes in the VN, and thus that part is not an anime-original. Thanks.
Overmage (talk) 05:53, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- That's fine, please change the opening sentence so it doesn't say "In the anime, Sakura has latent magic circuits." then so it doesn't confuse the reader. AngusWOOF (talk) 05:56, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Mermaid Melody
I doubt that Mermaid Melody will ever get dubbed. ADV Films is totally gone. --67.173.91.176 (talk) 20:26, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
- It sounded like they worked on it as Chris Ayres has it listed among his director credits at convention profiles back in 2010, but chances are slim to none on it being released. AngusWOOF (talk) 20:42, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
Stories
Are all Wiggles videos and episodes stories such as Wiggle Time from 1993 according to the "Everybody Clap! Everybody Sing!" documentary? (talk) 23:21, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
- What do you mean by that? AngusWOOF (talk) 23:30, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your hard work on this article! Good find on the "inc." article; I was able to make use of this in several other Wiki articles. BOZ (talk) 16:16, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- Glad to be of service! :) AngusWOOF (talk) 16:22, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
You might also be interested in giving a go to Brian Blume or Lorraine Williams, two key figures in both TSR's growth and downfall. They certainly both need looking at with an eye for NPOV for one thing. BOZ (talk) 11:47, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll see what I can do. AngusWOOF (talk) 14:46, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Heart to Heart EP/Single confusion?
Actually, an EP and a mini-album are the same thing, since an EP is an Extended Play and not a full length album....but yes, it's a single, since it's been edited on the 4Minute page, I decided to check it on music.daum.net and it's entitled as a single, not an EP. However so, when I started editing, I wasn't aware that a separate article for the song already existed. I think putting the single article into the song article would be great, I just didn't know how to do it really. I guess I can do the part where I just copy everything form article to the other, I'm not sure how to kind of remove the other article though. Chocolat ≈ Dubulge (Chat Me Up) 22:23, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- OMG REDIRECT LINK, YES, THAT MAKES SENSE! Thank you, I didn't think of that! Chocolat ≈ Dubulge (Chat Me Up) 22:32, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Fairy Tail FLCs?
Hi, Angus. I was thinking about taking List of Fairy Tail manga volumes and List of Fairy Tail characters to FL status. Can you please tell me what would you suggest before I take these to FLC? Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 22:52, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- FLC or GA? I'm not sure what it takes to nominate to FL. The list of volumes doesn't sound like it could progress any further than a list. I'm trying to figure out how to list those guild characters better, should we use bold for names? more bullet listings? AngusWOOF (talk) 00:01, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
- As for the list of manga volumes, we should format it to make it appropriate for a featured list. For example, see List of Naruto manga volumes as reference. We should not use bold for names in the character article, and remove less important characters from the article. If you have any other ideas, please let me know. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 00:35, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, I get it. Lists -> FL and Characters -> GA goal. Any words from the assessors and wikiproject leaders on how to improve the article? I would like to see more development on character creation, but I think we did well with backgrounding major characters and incorporating all the Afterword/Translation Notes. Also will need an entry for the new character from the Fairy Tail feature movie. AngusWOOF (talk) 01:16, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

ANN encyclopedia
Hello, I noticed this edit of yours. You may be interested to know that the anime and manga project, a while back, made quite an effort to purge references to ANN's encyclopedia from Wikipedia articles because it was deemed unreliable. Regards, Goodraise 20:57, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll throw in a cn for that one. AngusWOOF (talk) 21:30, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

List of The Facts of Life episodes
Hi. I spotted your note on Talk:List of The Facts of Life episodes about many of the episode summaries having been "copied word for word" from Sitcoms Online and decided to investigate whether there is a copyright issue. Comparing the version of the page before you started your copy edit with the Episode Guide on the Sitcoms Online page, Duplication Detector did not find any phrases of 5 or more words common to both pages. Was I looking in the wrong place? If there's a genuine copyvio there, we should at least report it. --Stfg (talk) 20:37, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, please check http://www.sitcomsonline.com/folepisodeguide.html that's their episode guide that I've found many of their summaries. Also have to convert it out of table formatting. I put a copy in my sandbox. AngusWOOF (talk) 20:47, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- Here are the results from Duplication Detector
http://toolserver.org/~dcoetzee/duplicationdetector/compare.php?url1=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sitcomsonline.com%2Ffolepisodeguide.html&url2=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FUser%3AAngusWOOF%2Fsandbox&minwords=5&minchars=13 AngusWOOF (talk) 20:51, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks very much. It's late where I live now, but I'll look in detail tomorrow. I may just file a copyvio report. Please feel free to claim the words for the part you copy edited. --Stfg (talk) 21:48, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ok, will do! Thanks again for all your support. AngusWOOF (talk) 21:49, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- updated sandbox briefly with the sentences that I copyedited. AngusWOOF (talk) 22:28, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- My difficulty was that clicking the "Episode Guide" link in the Sitcoms Online sidebar caused it to load into a frame, and the URL display wasn't changed. Well done finding the underlying page. I've filed a copyvio report at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2012 September 13. They usually take about 3-4 weeks to get to it. Good catch! --Stfg (talk) 10:45, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
- As an update to this, I have removed the offending summaries from the list and then went through and renumbered and added the production codes so the episode list is now visible and useful again. AngusWOOF (talk) 04:26, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
A barnstar for you

The Copyright Cleanup Barnstar | |

Gangnam Style
This is regarding the MTV Awards reference at the introduction of the article, I think its okay to include any nominations and awards at the introduction as long as its a huge and important one. MTV Awards (even if just nominations) are usually included near the end of the article's introduction (see Touch My Body and Bad Romance) - A1Candidate
- I agree with that. I removed Annoying Orange from the parody list; I'm sure it's up and coming to reach the one million mark though. AngusWOOF (talk) 18:08, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
Question
Hi, just wondering why you are using the |category=no
parameter in this template? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:10, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, that's because I only copyedited a tiny section of the article. Should I still count that as a yes? AngusWOOF (talk) 14:36, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
- You should. That parameter is normally only used when the template is placed for illustration rather than to mark an article as edited. You don't wanna use it on an article talk page. --Stfg (talk) 16:45, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, got it. Thanks! AngusWOOF (talk) 17:13, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
Lists-of exercise
I think the idea is to tick those from which you've actually removed the copyedit tag, not ones you've simply reviewed. There's no difference between {{Done}} and {{y}} except the size of the tick :) --Stfg (talk) 16:45, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ah I understand, I'll restore the episode detail ones. AngusWOOF (talk) 16:46, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

The Wiggles' TV Series
I know chase segments in the credits of The Wiggles' TV Series. I'll show you the episodes.
Bucket and Spade - Anthony's Friend, Muscleman Murray
Tennis Ball - Foodman, Haircut
Jeff's Keyboard - Murray's Shirt, Wiggle Opera, Funny Greg
Pink Towel - Building Blocks, Zardo Zap, Spooked Wiggles
Butterfly - Jeff the Mechanic, The Party
Balloons - Lilly
So what do you think? Dcelano (talk) 15:28, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
- Um, yes, there are chase segments. AngusWOOF (talk) 17:31, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
- So what do you mean by "pink towel"? And why is this important to note? AngusWOOF (talk) 03:33, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
- What I mean is, a towel is a piece of absorbent fabric or paper used for drying or wiping. It draws moisture through direct contact, often using a blotting or a rubbing motion. Common household textile towels are made from cotton, rayon, bamboo, nonwoven fibers or a few other materials. Dcelano (talk) 21:45, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
- No, I did not ask you what is a towel. I am asking why you grouped three episodes under Pink Towel. And why is this important to group it as such? Who cares?! AngusWOOF (talk) 01:31, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- Angus, do you know what I wish? I wish could see rare clips of the Wiggles' 1997 TV Series. They are the Balloon Chase and the Romp Bomp a Stomp 1997 music video. I'll show you the clips.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEXSg1jjskA Dcelano October 4, 2012 05:11, (UTC)
- That clip is from TV series 1 opening credits. Why don't you ask the person who uploaded all those chase scenes to Youtube? Or go find the Australian TV Series 1 boxset and you can watch it as many times as you'd like (assuming you have a compatible regional DVD player) AngusWOOF (talk) 20:32, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

CPDRC Dancers
Thanks for your comments and for pitching in with this page so dear to my heart you cannot believe. These prisoners are an inspiration to me personally and just watching them makes me a firm believer of humanity in everyone of us... They are just adorable... And of course you are absolutely right! CPDRC main should be about the prison itself and the music activities should be moved to CPDRC Dancers which I am effecting with immediate effect Please refer to Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center now a page for the prison and CPDRC dancers dedicated to the dance online phenomenon. In recognition for your wonderful work on the CPDRC page, I dedicate to you the recent 2012 hit by Khaled (musician) who captured the importance of singing and dancing in everybody's life, including these wonderful souls in the Cebu prison. Called "C'est la vie", it says in French "On va s'aimer / On va danser / C'est la vie" meaning "We shall love/ We shall dance / This is life"... Of course it is not true... but yet it is true in so many ways as CPDRC has proven. Here is the video just for your pleasure and a token of my thanks. Of course this is what also PSY is trying to do throughout the world with his hit.... LOL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7rhMqTQ4WI werldwayd (talk) 03:42, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks! I've tweaked it some more with some subcategories. Hopefully it can help get the page organized. AngusWOOF (talk) 04:25, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
- After further checking, I found that the most used name and that is what they call themselves in their videos is CPDRC Dancing Inmates or The Dancing Inmates... So I moved the page into CPDRC Dancing Inmates and amended the links. I also added a web series to the "In popular culture" done by a Filipino Canadian this year. In the same manner as Khaled is the song "Melody" by Arash (entertainer) which I also dedicate to you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sXzMvU6_Ow werldwayd (talk) 06:07, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
- As a matter of interest, is Garcia still a warden or has been replaced? the last I heard was that he was involved with a group of ex-convicts now outside Cebu prison and was arranging public performances for them. See for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0AW5sh6iBk or see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HTBIutt6to So is he out of his position in Cebu? In this recent story, Garcia is totally out of the picture and not mentioned as warden at all!! See http://www.cebu.gov.ph/listindex.asp?newsid=26&whatarticle=2&wfunc=viewarticle&rightpanel=yes&titlecap=CPDRC%20warden%20relieved These need checking for our page to be more updated. If garcia is out of the picture, this needs to be incorporated in text. In another story, he is actually out of CPDRC altoghether See http://globalnation.inquirer.net/cebudailynews/news/view/20100823-288348/Byron-CPDRC-hiding-injured-inmate It needs looking. Plus we should rethink the accuracy of the section title "Suspension of public performances" werldwayd (talk) 20:37, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
- Byron Garcia has not posted any videos from CPDRC since the Travis Payne one in 2010. He might be touring the different prisons and installing programs there though. You can change the title if it's not accurate. Check this article: http://cebudailynews.wordpress.com/2012/02/26/byron-old-way-of-the-whip-wont-work-in-cpdrc/ confirms he is no longer with CPDRC and things have gone downhill. It also mentions that he started the experiment in March 2005. AngusWOOF (talk) 21:30, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
The Wiggles' Logo
I want to tell you something. In Wiggledance, the new Wiggles' logo was only available on the concert stage while the Wiggles used short-sleeved shirts with no designs yet. I saw that in the concert footage that took place at the Seymour Centre. Dcelano 01:50, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, you brought that up earlier: see discussion. AngusWOOF (talk) 05:40, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
The Cockroaches
Did the Wiggles adapt some of the songs from the Cockroaches such as "Another Saturday Night", "Henry's Lizard" and "Out of My Head"? Usertalk:Dcelano 04:57, (UTC)
- They adapted the first song you listed, but I have not heard of the other ones. AngusWOOF (talk) 07:23, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Stephen Tong Page
I'm very sorry about editing "RMCI is one of the largest Christian Church in the world". I'm new to Wikipedia and this is my first contribution. I don't have any article supporting my statement, but although he is chinese, he always state that the church owned by all people. I know because i'm churching in Reformed Evangelical Church Indonesia. Once again, i'm really sorry for my correction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniel Fianto (talk • contribs) 06:51, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
- No worries. I'm just trying to make sure the statements are what was supported by the sources. It's likely the facility is classified as a megachurch. I also agree that he is reaching out to more than just two languages, and hope that is stated properly in the article. Also I hope you can edit Indonesian Reformed Evangelical Church and Messiah Cathedral as those articles need a lot more content. AngusWOOF (talk) 08:55, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
Okay thanks for your good response. I'll learn more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniel Fianto (talk • contribs) 09:22, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Translation discussion
Hello. I've already asked the Anime project about this matter, but can you please take a look at this discussion? There seems to be some concern about the correct English translations there. Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 04:20, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, chimed in AngusWOOF (talk) 05:14, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- I guess I need to hit the library again and pull out the translator's notes from the early volumes. AngusWOOF (talk) 05:45, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- I made a run to the library and typed in the text from the Translation Notes concerning Wizard and Names. It's in the discussion section for season 4, but feel free to incorporate it to the other Fairy Tail discussions and possibly the article where it would be helpful.

2YOON article
Hello, I've written a short wikipedia entry for 2YOON. Could you be kind enough to help me look through it [[1]] here and push if for approval if it's succinct? Sqra ([[User talk:Sqra|talk) 22:48, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads up on the citations format! The article's been rejected on notability grounds; but I have added citations from more internationally renowned magazines (such as TIME and SPIN) which have mentioned 2YOON.
In addition, I figured that news.nate.com simply re posts news articles; I've changed the various bibliographies to reflect the original authors and publishers.
Thanks again for your help in the references! The updated article is here. Sqra (talk) 14:22, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
List of recurring Tugs characters
Hi. Go for it on the article rename. I've not been on in a long, long time, but I hope that when I eventually find some time to get back on here we'll cross paths again.

Skit
I think the Wiggles' first concert videotape called "Wiggledance!" had skits such as the preceding one of "Vini, Vini". What's a preceding skit? Dcelano 22:00, (UTC)
- It's not really a skit, but an introductory message for the song, not like "Everybody is Clever" where they do a whole part about statues. I changed the wording on the article. -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:22, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

This is so, very embarassing. Recurrently, my classmates in the seventh grade have attempted to taint Wikipedia with unnecessary things such as this. On this matter, I have told them to stop countless times, yet they have chosen not to abate. Let me apologize. On behalf of my classmates, I am deeply sorry that I have caused you so much trouble. Lest they continue, I shall speak with them again! Oh, forgive me and have a good day! GuinanDrib555 (talk) 00:16, 11 April 2013 (UTC) |
Bathtime
Since was Bathtime was replaced with Henry's Underwater Big Band by the time the Wiggles' Toot Toot! video was edited and released in 1999, I think it's because it's a Raffi song. Dcelano 20:31, (UTC)

Your thoughts
I'd like to ask you about how hentai is shaping up. It was this and now it is now this. As you can probably see, I've not fixed or addressed numerous other issues further down the page, but the content matter is not so bad as it was in the first sections. I was wondering if you feel that the etymology and term origins are defined adequately. I keep finding things to tweak and fix, but the majority of content on these sections are filled out now. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 14:45, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hentai&diff=552426179&oldid=552142968 It looks really good! I like how you're digging up books and essays on the subject, and that it focuses on the term itself. Just as a super minor suggestion to remove main article: manga, anime. I'll have to read it in detail later when I'm in a NSFW environment. -AngusWOOF (talk) 15:36, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
- I tweaked the definition section and removed "famously" (WP:PEACOCK). The Cheech Marin section could use some clarification; I'm not sure who said what. Did Marin coin that term, and was he referring specifically to that anime title? Also feel free to be specific on reference "John of animenation.net speculates that ....." and "a sex book" I'm not sure how to handle quotes vs. italics when visiting the terminologies. I think the first time a term is used it can be in quote marks or italics and then de-quoted after that. However, in the tsundere article they use italics throughout. In the lead paragraph, the hen and tai parts can be added back. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:32, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, I didn't intend for a GA style review, but it is intriguing. The speculation point for the origin would be the Ask John case, but I haven't defined it yet. There are other sources to, but I do see the ambigious and NPOV concerns. I suppose doujins really need to be explained as well... they seem out of place in the term section, but I fully intend to discuss them further in. Forming a dilemma of sorts. Though you are wrong about the 'The Anime Movie Guide, does NOT have a definition for hentai, but it has a definition of Ecchi: "Ecchi: The Japanese pronuciation of the initial sound of hentai, or pervert, ecchi is a term used to describe lust-crazed teenage boys, panty fans or otherwise 'pervy' types. It's milder than hentai -- more disparaging then condemnatory in most circumstances." So while it does not define hentai as a term, but it introduces the word to English readers. So far this is the earliest and (just so happens to be) most popular source in English publication.
- The Marin quote in full is a definition, and not his own:
'Japornimation': Take, for instance, a repellent piece of NC-17 "Japornimation" titled "Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Over-fiend." This nonstop murder-and-rape fantasy belongs to a subgenre of anime known, for reasons too disgusting to describe, as "naughty tentacles." Disdained in Japan, they're hot sellers here. At Anime Crash, a Manhattan video/clothing/toy emporium that opened in March, letter carrier Frank Koch, 36, spends $300 a month on these hard-core cartoons: "You can only take so much of Disney's cute, fuzzy animals," he explains. "This is about death, sex, love and war." The NOT FOR KIDS warning labels are guaranteed to make kids even more curious.
- In all fairness, I am seriously considering removing it because while Marin does know what he is talking about, the term 'Japornimation' is a definite neologism which faded with the adoption of hentai. I have not yet found a source defining the evolution of the terminology, but the publication date was August 14, 1995, a full two years before the first mentions of hentai. But, and I can't believe I lost the source, probably an Ask John, a 1990 underground ALT.NET (forget the site) is probably the best thing to research and pull data from as it connected Americans directly to underground works prior to licensing. I'm certain the term hentai would have migrated as Urotsukidoji in Japan can quite be easily defined as hentai for its abnormal and perverse depictions of sex. I just can't read Japanese sources to PROVE it at this point. I do not want to get lost in hunting the origin of the term, but I do want to be as accurate as possible and the line obviously blurs somewhere.
- As for the sex book one, I don't particularly like how the source it utilized, mainly because it feels tagged on, but it is the earliest usage of the term 'genre' to define hentai that I could find. Here's the google ebook snippet. [2]
- As for NPOV, I've done my best to avoid having to many issues come up with the side-topic of gravure idols. I do not know if the 2-D complex is really worth mentioning as it is related more to lolicon. Though the actual popularity and this redefining has some really unusual topics which would require numerous articles to cover, most notably the concept of 'shoujo' as not a real woman, but as a third gender and abstract unrealistic perfection that simply cannot exist in physical form. This 2-d complex is well documented, but the weirdness factor goes off the charts. I really need someone who can read Japanese, or at least until I can read it myself. Which will be quite some time, as I just started self-study about three days ago.
- I do like how you have used the term and its simple definition for eroge and I think it would be a great idea to use it for doujinshi. These complex terms are approachable to me, but most readers would have no understanding of it. I'll put some more work into it. I am tinkering with the idea of making a working table or list of the major sub-genres of hentai, but that means bringing up far more perverse, unusual and frankly sickening topics. This yellow brick road to perversion has barely started to warm up. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:52, 28 April 2013 (UTC)]
- I removed my comment for Anime Movie Guide. I agree with you about just briefly introducing the side-terms (gravure idol, tentacle, lolicon) in the history sections and letting their individual articles take care of the detailed and critical analysis. Does Oxford Dictionary discuss the history or date of origin? That can be added to help explain its adoption into English. The ALT.NET (I'm guessing that was the Usenet forums that were popular around 1990, pre-world wide web? might be later though) is okay to prove existence of the underground works. Dunno about directory of terms, there's a Glossary of anime and manga. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:34, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
- I am thinking of creating a few articles to split off of hentai. At least one of them being major sub-genres of hentai and a list of subgenres. As the term hentai is really an english creation, the media in which the defined genre exists is well... broader and more diverse then other forms of pornography alone. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:40, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- I made the eroge section and filled it up to Kanon, which is probably the most iconic of eroge. The more I look at the manga section the more lackluster it seems to be, but sources on that material type is much harder to find, the lolicon matter is just easy because it is controversial as can be. Though I really need to start moving some images in, relevant covers and stuff. Not to be crude, but do we really need an actual hentai image in the hentai article? Perhaps, but I guess its a matter of taste with the image for me... it doesn't even define the term in a meaningful way, let alone encyclopedic other then 'hey look at this!' Seeing that picture show up first on a mobile phone before even the first words of the article was like 'oh great'... so the principle of least astonishment has me taking it out again. While it may not be a popular move, I think it is for the best. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:57, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- Well it's probably better further below on the page, or taken out. There might be some pixellated images or a picture of the packaging (manga cover, dvd cover) in the free domain that are still of that genre. -AngusWOOF (talk) 06:06, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

The Wiggles article - re removal of photo dates
Just curious as to why you removed the date from the photo in the infobox? The edit summary notes that it has been removed, but not why. The dating was there to reflect that this is a photo of the "old" Wiggles, not the current Wiggles. Appreciate your comments/clarification. Cheers. Melbourne3163 (talk) 18:16, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
- What you had changed was the title of the infobox, which does not need a date. The photo itself already has a caption that states it is the group with the four original Wiggles. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:01, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
- You are, of course, totally correct. I don't drink alcohol or use illegal substances and my eyesight is OK, so I'm struggling to work out why I did not even see the caption! Cue the sound of a embarrassed contributor heading off quietly for a nap! Sorry to waste your time. Melbourne3163 (talk) 05:28, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Rendition
I think you wrote rendition instead of version which is about the Wiggles' videos and songs. What's a rendition? Dcelano 17:36, May 6, 2013, (UTC)
Gentleman (Psy song) summary
- Your points are well-taken. I'd never heard of "overlink", and the use of the most definitive terminology, such as minimizing pronoun use when there is any possibility for misunderstanding as to the thing or individual to which the pronoun refers, is a standard technical-writing technique. That said, I suppose it can be deemed to be overuse where the potential for such ambiguity is not fully appreciated, or simply need not be considered.
- The use of the word "obviously", in this context, does suggest the undertaking of editorial content arising in interpretation, but then again, a conclusory statement that such "is not needed" is, too. To this I can only say that (among other things) because of South Korea's proximity in so many ways to North Korea, I believe K-pop in general, and Psy in particular, may be seeking to make political statements, although certainly to the extent they are intended, they are couched in pop-culture whimsy. There is of course, no proof--especially to non-Koreans unfamiliar with South Korean politico-cultural and socio-cultural concerns (which I am). It certainly is possible that they are not Psy's shopping bags his entourage are seen to be carrying. It is, of course, entirely possible that Psy magnanimously purchased the items contained in the bags for his entourage, and that this is the artistic intention--he is later seen obviously about to eat, or in the process of eating, breakfast with his entourage, while the woman writhes in the background. At any rate, I agree all that need be said are words to the effect that "Psy's entourage are shown carrying shopping bags".
- For a very long time as to Wikipedia, in response to something such as this, I would simply receive a message that would state, in essence, "You're blocked for being an asshole", instead of a considered, explanatory, response to concerns such has this, as to good-faith contributions, time and again, (perhaps) maliciously, unfairly and inaccurately referred to as "vandalism", which these are not. Very good. --Paul63243 (talk) 01:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
- I know it can be exciting to detail every part of the video; I'm letting the journalists provide the references for that, like the article that talks about his motivation to not be a one-hit wonder.

Telugu Desam Party
Hi,
Thanks for your input in relation to my copy-editing of the Telgu Desam Party page. This was back in March but due to other commitments I have not been editing since this time.
Due to the amount of work it will take to amend the article, I am going to take your advice and rewrite it in full (when I get a spare minute :p). I will be sure to add secondary media sources to make the article as unbiased as possible.
Your advice is greatly appreciated.

The New 52 Indigo Tribe
I removed three of the clarification tags that I felt were not warranted. However, I agree that the phrase "Indigo-induced Sinestro" is unclear. I furthermore felt I had to add my own commented-out note asking which planet the passage is referring to, since the phrase "which span over half of the planet they are currently on" is not very clear. Some exposition needs to be given as to what planet that is.
What I would suggest is that you look through the article's edit history, find out who originally added that information, and ask them to clarify the requested portions. If you don't get a response from that editor, then you may consider getting a copy of the issue issue in question (which is Green Lantern v5, 8 [April 2012]) in order to fix it yourself. It's probably only a few dollars, and while I don't go out and buy books just to fix Wikipedia articles often, I'll do it once in a while. Sorry if that's not as helpful as you were hoping.
One other thing: Be careful when you change the name tag on a ref name citation, as you did here. You didn't change the name tag with the subsequent two citations of that source, and this resulted in a citation error. I fixed it though, so no biggie. :-) Nightscream (talk) 00:55, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Steins;Gate 8-bit Fan Translation
Hello, I've seen that you've recently removed my edits regarding the fan translation of the Steins;Gate 8-bit spin-off game. I really think that my writings should be kept, because the fact that the game DOES have a fan translation is quite relevant. I really see no reason why it can't be mentioned. What do you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by TopHatProfessor1014 (talk • contribs) 23:44, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
- There's the issue of WP:COPYLINK where the fan translation or website may be a copyright violation. If the company has approved the unofficial translations of its work in multiple languages (example: Cyanide & Happiness), then cite that article. The other concern is notability. If the fan translation is particularly popular for the spin-off game, it should be referenced by an reliable source media article. -AngusWOOF (talk) 00:12, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
Whether or not it's a copyright violation is irrelevant. Pretty much EVERY Japanese exclusive game article on Wikipedia has a mention of a fan translation if one exists. Some examples include Policenauts, Mother 3, etc. There's also even actual links to translations themselves.
Secondly, it's already mentioned that the main Steins;Gate game has a fan translation. If that's mentioned, shouldn't the 8-bit one be mentioned regardless of popularity?
- If you notice on the Policenauts and Mother 3 articles, there is extensive coverage of the fan translations from multiple computer game media sources that attempt to demonstrate that the version is notable in that industry. Mother 3 involved Clyde Mandelin, who translates officially for many of Funimation's anime works. There is no point in listing every fan fiction, fan sub, fan rendition, parody or unofficial port if it does not have notability in the industry. -AngusWOOF (talk) 05:00, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

AKB48-related question
Hi, many thanks for putting so much effort into the Miyazawa article. You mentioned, that you are about to remove nicknames from the infobox, which i think is a good idea for streamlining. Do you think then nicknames should be mentioned in the article? Many members' nicknames are widely known within japanese audience and also used by japanese media. Rka001 (talk) 15:30, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
- The nicknames can be listed in the body of the article, like with Miyazawa's reception section. I just wanted to make sure they were gone from the infobox if they are not official names given by AKB48 management as per the template: infobox musical artist/doc#alias which uses the example of "The Godfather of Soul" as an unofficially credited but heavily used nickname for James Brown. -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:03, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Voice actor filmographies
I got your message. No problem, dude. You're not the only one that's having this problem. Personally, I think it's ridiculous to have their filmographies wiped out. I do need help with the Tara Platt article. Her filmography is being wiped out. FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 04:24, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- The Tara Platt dispute is now at Wikipedia:BLP/N#Tara_Platt. Can you please do something about this? Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 06:35, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- Also, I managed to restore the filmography section and started a discussion at the talk page of the subject in question. Can you please join in the discussion and help find sources on Tara Platt if you have the time? Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 07:50, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. I have posted my opinions on the filmographies on the mentioned locations. Her resume doesn't show the VO work but has her TV and film appearances. -AngusWOOF (talk) 18:34, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- Found more resumes from her regarding the VO work so it is coming along. Worst case is to add a crapload of cite episodes on the closing credits. -AngusWOOF (talk) 01:27, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
- Yep. I'm also citing sources to other filmographies as well. That includes Caitlin Glass, Tiffany Grant and also Shannon Emerick. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 07:34, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

Paul Field
Christine said that Paul Field first worked with the Wiggles in 1998 when he became manager. That's the year when Yummy Yummy, Wiggle Time and Wiggledance! were reprinted. If only the original versions were released on DVD. Dcelano, 04:56, December 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hello, it's a little too late for that but I'd like to restore my page "Vanilla Beans (japanese band)". I asked a user to restore this page but no answer x-( . I did not know you could do drafts before publishing an article. It also might be me who have created the article on the French Wikipedia I also have more sources at my disposal to make the article more eligible on Wikipedia. Since july 2013 the page was been deleted. Thank you in advance for your answer. Améthy$te (talk) 20:07, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
- I wasn't able to find it. Maybe you can write up a new one in your sandbox? That's the ideal place to do those scratchwork artcles. Also talk to the admin who deleted it. -AngusWOOF (talk) 07:29, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

The Wiggles' TV Series
Since Yummy Yummy, Wiggle Time and Wiggledance were re-released in 1998, maybe the Wiggles made changes in the television series on the videos and its covers. Take the sound sample of a commercial for Wiggles videos from Wiggledance, for instance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvpL60a2-Pg
User_talk:Dcelano, 15:05, December 31, 2013, (UTC)
- I don't understand your point. This is like saying they made changes in 2013 because they changed its members. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:58, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
- The point is the songs and skits of Yummy Yummy and Wiggle Time were redone and resequenced to fit the format of the group's television series. I saw that in the Yummy Yummy page. I wish we could see the full versions of the original Wiggle Time and Yummy Yummy in high digital quality. User_talk:Dcelano, 16:34, December 31, 2013, (UTC)
No, they did not format Wiggle Time or Yummy Yummy for the TV series. There is no Captain Feathersword segment, or puppet Henry the Octopus or kindergarten/Kaz the Cat in those two videos.Nevermind, this is going in circles again. They did not re-sequence the videos for the TV series. They produced songs and skits that could easily fit into any of their TV series episodes or standalone trailers they were making. That's rather normal activity. If you're concerned about what they filmed the 1993 and 1994 videos on, go research it. I doubt it was on high digital media, as HDTV standards weren't typical of TV broadcasts until much later. -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:24, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas
See what I mean? The Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas was taped in 1997, not 1996. That's why no Christmas television clips of The Wiggles were shown until 1998. Dcelano, January 1, 2014, (UTC)
- Do you have any sources for this? -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:37, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Heavy Rotation
I refer to this edit of yours. Please be informed that it is not a requirement that the dmy date format is used only for British articles. In fact, it is the most widely used format by English-speakers except for North Americans. In the case of this article, our convention is to continue using the date format adopted by the "first major contributor" to the article. And as you can see from this version, the article used only dmy dates when it was created, so that would determine the format going forwards. Regards, -- Ohc ¡digame! 02:31, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks! I have been checking Date format by country and Indonesia uses DMY, so yes, you can add back the rule. The Chinese, Japanese and Korean articles use YMD format so they'll have to be reviewed case by case. -AngusWOOF (talk) 02:38, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Genre tags on Highschool of the Dead
You removed the "harem" tag from the article even though there are two sources backing it up. I put the tag again and left a comment on the article's talk page. If you disagree or have something to comment about it, use the talk page, but don't outright remove the tag; removing sourced material without previous discussion goes against wiki guidelines. Kazu-kun (talk) 05:01, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
- It wasn't discussed to add "harem" back into the mix, but thank you for talking about it on the talk page. I already explained on the talk page why that single source was not good enough to justify calling it a genre. That's like saying it's a romantic comedy because the girl is attracted to the guy and there are some funny scenes. The Anime Expo one is good. I'll support keeping it because of that one. -AngusWOOF (talk) 05:34, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

Rosario + Vampire edit
capu2 is the strangest phrase I have ever heard in English in my life and deserves an explanation as to why "season 2" is not just called "season 2". How else should it be explained? Otherwise I request all instances of Capu2 be removed from the main article and it just be called "season 2". I agree this does not need it's own section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bmg300 (talk • contribs) 06:34, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- Funimation uses Capu2 and Season Two [3] at least according to a picture on Amazon. I'll see if I can tweak the note so the meaning is retained with a modified footnote from the character list. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:38, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Any reason the music credit has been removed from the episode list. The series was unique in being one of the first feature length TV westerns and having individually scored episodes hence the number of composers. I am sure they could/should be included. Also I may have to rewrite the first summary to reflect the episode more. Please reply here to keep comments in one place. REVUpminster (talk) 12:56, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, I commented out the music composer per episode because there was nothing in the article's main section or the development section that indicated it was a music-based series where that credit needs to be noted on the same level as the episode director and story. If you can find sources that indicate this distinction that would be great. Yes, feel free to beef up the first episode summary. -AngusWOOF (talk) 14:42, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply. I would never claim it to be a music based series, only it is unusual in having the top TV composers of the day doing individual episodes and not relying on just Elmer Bernstein's theme tune which is used in every opening and closing title sequence. REVUpminster (talk) 15:09, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- If it's one of the first of its kind to rotate music duties for episodes, that can be added to the development/production. It can be retained as long as the references are there so it doesn't seem out of place. Regarding plot size, see Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Television#Episode_listing but yeah anything's better than "The Marshal and friends go to the outpost to hunt down (outlaw of the week), who had (crime o the week)." -AngusWOOF (talk) 15:29, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

- It looks like 6Theory Media owns Tokyohive too. Whenever those English articles reference the original Japanese or Korean text, we should use the original reference. -AngusWOOF (talk) 06:44, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
- It'll be good to cite the original references, but it's difficult to find out exactly what sources the article is referring to. The allkpop site says that articles are 'translated' from Korean articles, but the original articles sourced are too unclear to search for the original ones. I've asked about allkpop on WP:RSN, but I received exactly zero replies and the issue was archived. I've mostly supported the facts with Korean sources. Should I change all the allkpop/other-kpop-blog references to Korean news articles?
- P.S. If you haven't already, don't bother looking on my talk page. It's just confirming what you said. Also, let's just comment here from now on. Thanks! -KJ click here 06:44, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Okay. I've finished adding the references to 4Minute (although allkpop is still there). Couple of things: 1. Should we remove allkpop as a source altogether? I can replace them with Korean sources, but is it necessary? 2. How about submitting the article for peer review? KJ click here 06:59, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

- I thought that the article might need major restructuring, and instead of editing on the mainspace article (where it's going to be messy during the editing), we could edit in a sandbox instead, where the article will be easier to edit and discuss. KJ click here 15:23, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

I tried to add something on any articles such as the Disney characters on "Carols in the Domain 1998" but then you removed them by reverting. Dcelano, March 2, 2014, 04:59, (UTC)
- Yeah, the youtube is not a reliable source. It can't be used to confirm 1998 participants like the news articles. -AngusWOOF (talk) 05:08, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
I haven't watched the film, but I have read the novel. It says on the film's page that Rackam sacrifices himself to destroy the queen's ship, but he obviously doesn't die, because he comes back to train Ender. Does he go against orders to attack the queen's ship in the film, like in the book? Maybe that should be said instad of 'sacrificed himself'. Ollieinc (talk) 05:43, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, the movie has the stock video footage of Mazer blowing up the queen ship as the first scene (one of those film director choices), and then explains later when Ender meets Mazer, that he survived the attack by bailing out at the last second, but with the queen ship knocked out the rest of the ships just fall from the sky. I'll see if I can reword it, but the initial footage leads everyone at Battle School who isn't in the know to believe he sacrificed himself. -AngusWOOF (talk) 05:53, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Fair use of first line lyrics
Hi, re this removal of lyrics. As I understand it the purpose of giving the first line of a song - as shown by first line indexes in reference books - is partly to help identification of a song, both where title and lyrics depart. The words are a significant part of most songs, and to remove content related to the words - particularly when we can't give mp3 examples for most songs due to much tighter copyright on recordings than words - doesn't improve articles. As I understand it the first line of songs may be included as I've had this discussion with other editors before, and WP:LYRICS is open on the subject. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:54, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation. As this is a Japanese song, it is unlikely that the first line will need to be distinguished between other So longs with the similar title. If it could be redone into a Conception/Development section that explains how the title of the song was chosen, that would be more informative. -AngusWOOF (talk) 14:57, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Well that would be possible, Japanese sources do actually discuss the lyricist's contribution to this song, e.g. here: 秋元康が作詞家売上げ日本一、総売上6,859万枚で故・阿久悠さん超え。 "3月4日付けのオリコン週間ランキング(集計期間:2月18日〜24日)では、103.6万枚を売り上げたAKB48「So long !」(2月20日発売・最高位1位)など、秋元康が作詞したAKB48、SKE48などの計10作のシングルがトータルで106.6万枚の売上を記録。" but as you probably are aware most of our Asian song articles consist of lots of information about the artists, record companies, videos, chart positions maybe and not a single mention of the actual song. This is a small redress to that imbalance. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:02, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Incidentally I wasn't saying that including lyrics would help disambiguation. "Japanese-language song" in the lead already achieves that.
- I've had a further look for something related to "so long" "曲の意味", but honestly one could hunt for hours to find anything that meets WP:RS. For the time being I would appreciate it if you could restore the first line. It's interesting for readers who want to know something, anything, about the content of the song, and it follows the objective of deepening content on song articles as pieces of popular culture not just listing commercial stats. Do you object to the line being restored and the lyricist ref added? In ictu oculi (talk) 15:17, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'll restore it with the Composition section. The nari article can be used to beef it up. -AngusWOOF (talk) 15:22, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- I looked at the nari article, but it doesn't add anything about the composition, other than that he wrote it, and that he is now more successful than some other composer that he respects. Oh well! -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:24, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, no it doesn't, disappointing. It is very hard to find any concrete information about Korean or Japanese songwriters and lyricists in WP:RS sources, too much is on blogs. I just started a stub on Jam Factory who have one of the main teams of lyricists in Seoul. (also my apologies for misreading your comment on keeping ! in titles, I agree with you.

AKB48 and gojuon
Another editor has discovered the articles and has attempted to institute the gojuon order based on new evidence he claims supports its use. As you participated in the original incarnation of this debate, I think it is in best interests for you to examine this new evidence. The discussion begins at Talk:AKB48#Section break.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 08:20, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. I chimed in and talked with the editor. There is a way to make a column for Japanese name so someone can click that and get their gojuon order. The first appearance is what's still up for debate; it is difficult to get anyone to budge on that. Thought the IP's comments were good though. -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:30, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Regarding Nisekoi
there is a lot of information on Anime News Network as you can see here, the manga has has made it to the top charts in both japan and in US. even ranked #1 at one point. This article can easily pass upto start. Lucia Black (talk) 19:03, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks! I'll take a look at it. Hopefully we can fashion something good for reception. -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:23, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
Ender's Game (film)
Hello AngusWOOF. What is required to add members to the cast section of this film? The actress in question is named in the credits, and has a speaking role in the film. What sources do you require? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.160.96.7 (talk) 18:43, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
- How is she listed in the closing credits? The other of the supporting cast should be according to that scheme. Also see WP:FILMCAST. Not every person in the film should be listed in the article. -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:09, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the timely response. According to the article you linked it may not be necessary to add her. I felt it relevant as she was an instructor of the students, and she is listed above Admiral Chjamrajnager in the credits. Also, Corvoe's comment on his revert should be edited or deleted. I am not in any way affiliated with the actress, and his comment puts a negative context to an addition made by an unrelated 3rd party (me). 198.160.96.7 (talk) 19:19, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
- Unfortunately I don't have the DVD at the moment so I can't check the listing, but I would check that, and order the rest of the cast (besides the top 6 because there Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield get flip flopped depending on the poster or the credit listings) appropriately. I have seen unofficial cast lists where she is listed as Professor IMDB and ones where she isn't: endersansible.com and Entertainment Weekly, the last of which is an acceptable source that groups her as not as important as the other 16. However, I did find this article from Cinema Blend that affirms her role in the movie HERE so if she is listed there you can cite that one. -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:31, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
If I decide to re-add her, I will list the cinemablend reference. I'm still not super familiar with editing on Wikipedia, just trying to contribute as of late. Is IMDB not a valid source? 198.160.96.7 (talk) 20:20, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
- IMDB isn't a valid source for the places where users can edit entries. WP:RS/IMDB -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:23, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
Roger that. Thank you again for your help. I have gone to Corvoe's talk page to request that he edit his comment and remove the negative assumption. 198.160.96.7 (talk) 20:28, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
Trying again. I've listed her in the correct spot in the cast line up according to the credits from the movie. I've also added the correct reference from cinema blend. She is listed in the movie credits as Professor but as Professor Behari from the source. Which is more appropriate? 198.160.96.7 (talk) 21:01, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
- Use what's shown in the closing credits. Do you have the DVD? -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:07, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
Yes I do. I have a screenshot of the closing credits where she is listed. Thus I'll leave it as I have last written, as it is in the credits. Thank you so much for all of your help! 198.160.96.7 (talk) 21:08, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
Thanks
Ha ha, so THAT's how it works. Thanks, I'll put that to use in future drives! LazyBastardGuy 03:03, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
- No prob. Thanks for copyediting those articles! -AngusWOOF (talk) 03:06, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
Nisekoi episodes
Hey I was wondering about whether or not we should leave the List of Nisekoi episodes as its own article of merge it back to the parent article. I think if the summary sizes remain the length they are now and are consistent until the final episode, it should be okay in the main. But I'll leave that for you to decide so as not to hinder the good progress you've made on the main. At any rate, a novice editor also seems to have bumped the list up to C-class when it is clearly start. —KirtZMessage 01:35, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
- I agree they can be put back in the main, and the summary lengths brief as is. It's not like they are planning to make this an extended series, after all it got 20 episodes right away instead of the usual 12-13. -AngusWOOF (talk) 03:43, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
- After some thought, it can stay separate too. I would be more inclined to merge it if it were just 12-13. Anyway, the Plot section can be beefed up with more highlights from the manga series, generally 1-2 sentences per volume. I agree the character list should stay. This isn't some open-ended cast list like its protege Ranma 1/2. After 20-30 chapters they've only introduced Haru and brought Paula back. -AngusWOOF (talk) 03:55, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
- Looks like it can remain separate for the time being at least. —KirtZMessage 10:50, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
AKB48
Moscow Connection is unilaterally restoring the gojuon because he claims he has consensus. Would you mind wading in again because he's already attempted to instate it.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 13:50, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks, I posted my opinion, again. It's going in circles, but this time I'm adding MOS:JA to it. -AngusWOOF (talk) 14:29, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- It's an ouroboros of otaku fanaticism.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 18:21, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- I'm hoping to get rid of the "fan pov" tag again. I tried, but it's left the article rather dry looking with its timeline of releases and receptions. And if I dare touch someone's graduation, that's just a hornet's nest. There's another editor who's been filling in content so that should help things. -AngusWOOF (talk) 18:55, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

List of programs broadcast by Toon Disney
I need your help. There's a debate on whether the List of programs broadcast by Toon Disney list should be deleted or not. I voted for Keep and three users voted for delete. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 01:10, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
- Ok, I replied and cited another page that was in the same situation. If you need information to back up the history look for program block announcements where they mention titles. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:10, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
- It doesn't look promising. At least the shows can be mentioned in the blocks section. I proposed the Jetix shows be moved though! -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:39, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for your help. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 19:08, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Wow! Thanks for taking the time to find and add all those sources to List of programs broadcast by Toon Disney. The AfD is still ongoing, but I think it stands a much higher chance of being kept with your edits! Keep doing what you do, as you've met The Heymann Standard for two participants in the AfD so far (including me), who have changed their !votes from either "delete" or "neutral" to "keep". With kind regards, Mz7 (talk) 23:57, 4 April 2014 (UTC), revised 00:03, 5 April 2014 (UTC) |

List of programs broadcast by Boomerang
We got a problem going on at List of programs broadcast by Boomerang. A user kept on removing the shows that formally aired on the channel. No matter how many times he/she was told to stop, the user kept on continuing and engaged in an edit war with me. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 23:19, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
- There's an edit warring board; you can go there if desired. I would suggest adding sources like I did with the Toon Disney announcements. The more reliable sources, the better chance of entries staying. You can also access snapshots of the Boomerang programming block guides from webarchive. -AngusWOOF (talk) 00:35, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
- OK, but I'm gonna need some help. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 22:46, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
- I'm afraid it just got worst. When I was about to find help for the list and to find source by myself, the user has filed a report on the list on Incident board. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 02:15, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- I don't know what he's trying to delete. Current programming's the easiest to source, so I have populated the references there. The older stuff can only be found by timestamps like [5] that note the show was active at that date, although it does not show when it premiered. -AngusWOOF (talk) 02:40, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- OK, I made more comments regarding the programming. The premiere dates should be commented out from the listings until properly verified. Proving existence of programming on the network should be easily referenced with the television guide archives already mentioned, so please populate them from the webarchive or by programming announcements made by sources like AWN or Business Wire. I also removed the original 1960s-1990s years from the programming as they are all retro programs. -AngusWOOF (talk) 15:34, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- As much as I want to report the user, I can't. Since I am not admin (and probably will not), it would be impossible to do it. I'm gonna take some time off from Wikipedia until my headache from editing the list ends. I just wish this "Former Programming" problem never happened in the first place. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 08:50, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry. I was focused on making the Toon Disney list useful; it's actually quite informative now by tracking what they have launched each season! I've also raised an issue on whether a "final programming" list is useful there. If Boomerang is on some listing archives, or if TV guide magazine is still around, you can use that to justify existence on the list. -AngusWOOF (talk) 14:26, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
- If you want, you can put a copy in your sandbox and add references offline from there, then it won't interfere with what's currently being debated. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:17, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

I added a bunch of snapshot references to the talk page. This should help a lot in saving the old shows. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:42, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
- I've gone through the entire schedule for this now. It's all referenced except for the programming blocks. -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:14, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Toonami list
i made a compromise for lists to help out. I hope you like it, so please voice your opinion there. Lucia Black (talk) 15:31, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. I made a copy of the last version I worked on in my sandbox which still has the block lineups; I didn't think my re-org of those schedules was that bad. [6] I agree the Notes section should be simplified. I think the lineup histories should go away. The main Toonami article talks about adding "program X" replacing program Y fine and time schedule changes. There's also the mess of how it should work with List of programs broadcast by Adult Swim and List of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network but those are bigger beasts that don't have the 200 sections. -AngusWOOF (talk) 15:46, 20 April 2014 (UTC), updated 16:04, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
High School DxD and Broken Blade
Hi, AngusWOOF. I'm thinking about editing High School DxD and List of High School DxD characters to get it to at least a B-Class, as well as Broken Blade. Do you mind if we work on this together? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 01:58, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- Sure, I haven't seen them but I can try to read and watch the first one (it's on Hulu). Not sure if I have access to the second. -AngusWOOF (talk) 02:53, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- It might be tough as a lot of the series depends on the light novels, but given that the character list is overly detailed, it should be easy to add Ref label style references like with Haganai and List of Rosario + Vampire characters. The lists can be severely shortened to essential character descriptions from there. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:20, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- I chopped down the character description for Issei. :) Please take a look, and I will do some more hacks with the others. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:41, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- More edits to group characters under their organizations and factions. I may cut this even further with the Evil Pieces so it will be more like the Fairy Tail characters list. -AngusWOOF (talk) 03:48, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
- Anyways, there's an ongoing issue at Talk:List of One Piece characters#Recently added characters regarding the addition of new characters. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 03:25, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- I think the new characters need to establish notability with the rules the character page was set up with. I can try to check the latest volumes of One Piece for the character profiles up front to see if they have a large character profile like Buggy or Arlong or whether they are more like Pell or Mr. 3. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:24, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Kumi Koda discography featured list
Hi there! A couple of months ago I listed Kumi Koda discography as a featured list candidate. As someone who edited the page before me and who works with lists, I was wondering if you had any opinions about the current page, if it's lacking anything, or if something needs to be changed. Any comments would be really appreciated! --Prosperosity (talk) 11:13, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
- Probably the thing that stands out is the need for references on the opening descriptions as with Beyonce discography. The charts themselves look great! Thanks for verifying all the figures! -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:54, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
- How's that? The style guide says that statements in the intro don't have to be sourced if they're dealt with further down the page, so I added some for Orpheus Records/12 weeks of singles. --Prosperosity (talk) 02:37, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
- Okay, that works for me then. :) -AngusWOOF (talk) 04:29, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
- Great, thank you so much! If you have any time, would it be okay if you left a comment of support at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates#Kumi Koda discography (but mentioning you've edited the article in the past), if that's not too much trouble? --Prosperosity (talk) 05:34, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

- Okay. I think this whole article needs to be helped out as well as the List of Sailor Moon episodes and its sub articles. Thoughts? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 02:03, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
- Also, can you take a look at this? I've got some issues regarding over linking and the restoration of the film to the episode list. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 05:31, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry for the late notification, but I was wondering if you can still help out on Sailor Moon, as I still feel that we need to get this article revamped for GA status.

Catherine Taber
Would you mind helping out on finding sources for Catherine Taber? - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 18:39, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for helping out. We'll need to get those sources cited into page if we want the Catherine Taber page to stay. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 19:54, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- Her main notability is with Star Wars. If there's a Star Wars interest group, please inform them about it as well. I'd throw in as much information about that plus her other movies like Just Like Heaven. Don't let the "interview" deter you from writing about her background. A lot of starting actors' backgrounds have to be sourced by such things until the writers have enough profile stuff to cover it outside of herself, like if they visit her hometown and interview her family and friends. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:14, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- I've been busy filling in biography for Bridget Hoffman so not sure if I can get around to doing Cat. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:16, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- I added more stuff to Cat Taber, including reviews from Variety, New York Times, Daily Record, IGN and other magazine sources. Also added Wikiproject Star Wars. Still needs more replies on the AFD though. Same for Bridget Hoffman, as she just got re-listed, despite adding 30+ references. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:50, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
Question
(regrouped conversations regarding If Her Flag Breaks) -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:44, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
Reason you removed Hakua being Souta's younger sister? Nanami did say that, so I don't see why you took that out (not to mention that was important and backed up). Would it be okay to re-add if it was merely put as "In the anime, she is revealed to be Souta's younger sister (insert ref)"? 72.177.50.227 (talk) 20:42, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
- That works. Go for it, you can use <ref name="ep12"/>
- Done and done. 72.177.50.227 (talk) 21:01, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
I used the wrong word partially in my recent edit summery to Kanojo ga Flag, the term I ment was Otouto (little brother) not the 'im' at the beggining. I put it on the talk page for people to understand. 72.177.50.227 (talk) 15:40, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
- No worries. Those are terms in the Japanese that are getting translated to English like younger/little brother anyway. -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:53, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
Do you know what in the heck happened in Kanojo ga flag 13 (I watched it subbed, and after Number 0 left, everything that follows made no sense at all, see the entire reasons why on the article talk page, I brought up the problems)? It's a big enough problem I don't think we can explain the ending too well in an episode summery, other than noting that the ending is riddled with issues and unexplained things. 72.177.50.227 (talk) 21:19, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- You can check some of those anime forums or reviews on the internet to see how people are reacting to it. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:41, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- From what I've seen so far, people are pretty confused about the stuff after Number 0 leaves as well (some are assuming though he went back to the virtual world since those 2 little girls only existed in the virtual world as programs). I'm at a loss as to how we should deal with this ending. Do we say "There are unresolved issues in the ending, such as weather or not Souta and Nanami went back to the virtual world again due to (insert the two little girls names) watching him and Akane"? 72.177.50.227 (talk) 22:00, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- Nah, for the summary just report what was observed, without the speculation. -AngusWOOF (talk) 22:52, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- Isn't there generally a difference between speculation and plot holes/major problems? You can probably do better than me with the summery (we're getting an ova later this year, so they might explain what the heck was going on after Number 0 left, in the ova). 72.177.50.227 (talk) 23:54, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
Can you copy-paste my recent edit on the Kanojo Ga flag page and move it into episode 13 (wound up in the ova part by accident)? 72.177.50.227 (talk) 04:08, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
- Nevermind, I got it. 72.177.50.227 (talk) 04:30, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Can you take a look at List of Sailor Moon Crystal episodes? I've taken it up for a WP:DYK nomination, but I think we should help work on it as well. Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 13:43, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

- Also, I think we may need to get some sources for the new English dub voice cast as well since Viz will announce the cast today. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:05, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
List of Sailor Moon episodes
I think we should add a home release section in the List of Sailor Moon episodes article. But I don't think we can use Amazon.com, as it is a borderline source that can be used only for certain situations. Thoughts? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 00:04, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- We may want to consider grouping them within their seasons as per the List of Code Geass episodes or List of Tenchi in Tokyo episodes. If we can find ones from the distributor itself that would be good too, unless the website is super old. Do you know if world cat is allowable? -AngusWOOF (talk) 00:54, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
Be careful, on Michelle Ruff you are dangerously close to what could be considered an edit war. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ 話 ♪ ߷ ♀ 投稿 ♀
- I've posted on the talk page regarding this. There are several major problems with the article, so I am flagging down what needs to be fixed rather than erasing the unsourced roles, except where they violate notability. -AngusWOOF (talk) 13:52, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- I know, and I was straddling the fence on what to do as technically you both were edit warring, even though you were in the right. I read the AN3 posts by you and others and changed the template to something a bit more soft, but still be careful, edit warring even if you are right, can be something I've seen some of the more hard-lined admins be willing to block for. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ 話 ♪ ߷ ♀ 投稿 ♀ 20:10, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, thanks. I stopped at 3RR, and hopefully the edits today on the other articles to undo my splitting tagging will be okay. -AngusWOOF (talk) 20:16, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
No More Wikipedia
That's it, no more editing on Wikipedia. Right, Angus_Woof? Dcelano, July 11, 2014, 17:36, (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.83.230.172 (talk)
- Look, I know you're excited that you discovered that the Wiggles performed at Sea World and were filmed for another television special in 1999, but it is still half-assed research that you wouldn't be able to put in here because of your topic ban, so please drop this. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:16, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
- But Daniel, you told me this week that you were retiring from Wikipedia, and look, you're still at it. Stop being such an idiot, okay? When will you figure out that you will get banned, no matter what you do or how times you try to do it? Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 23:23, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
Bold!
Yo yo yo, I saw your "thanks" and appreciate it. In case your watchlist blew up with my gnoming today, as you might have discerned, I went through a ton of anime articles and removed all the unnecessary boldface. It's way easier to do this stuff with AWB. If you seen any more of these articles, send 'em my way and I'll be happy to zap them. I basically did a Wikipedia search for (not in quotes) 'Leading roles in bold'. It's possible I missed some. The good thing is that at WikiProject Anime & Manga, editor Calathan pointed me in the direction of a previous MOS discussion specifically about leading role bolding at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Archive 134#Bolding of major roles. That makes enforcing consensus a little easier. Take care, and drop me a note if you need anything. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:47, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
- Sounds good. Hopefully it will encourage people to write about the voice actor's important roles like a real biography article instead of continuing to pile on random guest roles. -AngusWOOF (talk) 17:53, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Doan Hoang article
- Let's get the information correct on the article. Thanks once again for updating the bio on your official website, that helps a lot in verifying any information that may be difficult to find on the Internet. When you do add those statements, use the <ref name="bio"/> citation and they shouldn't be questioned. -AngusWOOF (talk) 06:22, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
Thank you! I appreciate your work and see that you are trying to get it right. All the best. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Junotcat (talk • contribs) 13:44, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
Help, please
Hey Angus, I've been keeping an eye on the Huang article, but it looks like you've got things well in-hand, so I haven't felt obligated to intervene. Let me know if you want me to help out, though, something I'm always happy to do. But that's not why I'm here! I have a Sesame Street article languishing at FAC [7] (for some reason, most of my articles languish there) that's in danger of failing due to lack of support. Would you mind going over and taking a look? Thanks, I muchly appreciate it. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 18:45, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
Re: List of Full Metal Panic! episodes
Then just cite "Second Raid ep 1" like I did with Hamatora. Besides, the novels are the primary sources.Tintor2 (talk) 20:56, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- I can't do that. I'm using cite episodes to show officially credited names for VAs. So how should this go? Should i put in an anchor scheme like {{anchor|ep2-03}} and drop the two columns? -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:01, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'm using the anchor scheme now. I'm placing them at the English Title, so that seems to work fine. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:35, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
Regarding Karneval (manga)
Hey can you double check the English air dates for the anime list? Being listed 5 days apart from the original Japanese air date has me in doubt as to whether or not they are the dates for English dubbed versions, which would be preferred. Thanks. —KirtZMessage 09:36, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- I would remove it. Those appear to be the streaming air dates for the Japanese with English subtitles version. [8] I don't think they'd put together the English dub so quickly, not like Space Dandy. -AngusWOOF (talk) 13:05, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- I removed them. Did the best I could with the page anyway. Thanks. —KirtZMessage 18:46, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
Vampire Hunter D: Reception
Where do you suggest I could get good review articles for Vampire Hunter D (1985 film)? I would like to present a view that doesn't have too many negative reviews, but not a ridiculous amount of positive ones.PatTheMoron (talk) 08:00, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- MRQE [9] has some links to some reviews, like the ones from Houston Chronicle , ANN, DVD Talk, Cinema Crazed. As long as they're by film critics and regular reviewers. -AngusWOOF (talk) 10:50, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
WP:BURDEN
Thanks for the note! There is WP:BURDEN of course. If the source isn't added, and especially is not found by a search, undo it and tell the author to add a source. Unfortunately, removal seems to be the only way to get them to do so. I do this often, and do get flack about it. You can add a subst:welcome-t or a subst:welcome-anon-t to their talk page. I also sometimes add extensive instructions on adding a citation. Cheers! Jim1138 (talk) 18:44, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
Cafetran Espresso
Thanks for reviewing my nascent page on Cafetran Espresson. I am not quite certain to understand why this page causes so much problem. To be honest, I did not want to create it in the first place. However, an editor kept removing all mention of the software from the CAT software comparison, for lack of notability (while the said page list software with a lower user-base than Espresso). I will keep trying to include more external references and get the page accepted (BTW, I am not a developer of the software. Just a user, who was very grateful to find it, in a domain where there is an almost monopoly of tools under Windows, with a few under Mac, and almost nothing under Linux. Certainly not of the quality and versatility of Espresso). NB: while I appreciated your nice message on my talk page, I am actually not a new contributor. I edited WP way before you.
