== Dragon Ball names ==
 
Shenlong is the manga name but I see that the priority here is given to anime names. The article about Kuririn is called Krilin, in the article about Bulma is written "Bulla" instead of "Bra" as her daughter name, in the List of Dragon Ball characters it's written "Shenron" instead of "Shenlong" etc. Why not keeping this method and be consistent? [[User:Fleyzk|Fleyzk]] ([[User talk:Fleyzk|talk]]) 02:04, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
:The [[Dragon Ball (manga)]] article is solely about the manga and therefore uses the names used by the manga's official English publisher. It wouldn't make any sense to use spellings that never appear in the work that the article is about. There are millions of things that have multiple spellings/names. If you link [[Panda bear]] it takes you to [[Giant panda]]. But that doesn't mean using "panda bear" is wrong and shouldn't be allowed. The ''Dragon Ball'' character articles weren't always like that, they went down the drain several years ago and I gave up on them because there are too many users who don't even know DB is a manga first and foremost. Also, per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]] there's no reason to change [[Shenlong (Dragon Ball)]] to [[List of Dragon Ball characters#Shenron]] as you did in your last edit.

::Sorry 🙏🏻 I didn't get the notification of your reply and so until now I thought you hadn't replied to me yet. OK, I got it. What bothers me is the inconsistency between the articles. You say it's the others fault, but if all, I repeat, all the other Dragon Ball articles in this encyclopedia use the other names, why don't you fit in with them instead of being so stiff? We should think about the good of the encyclopedia, not that everyone writes as he wants. Indeed, Wikipedia has actually chosen which names to use and you seem to be the only one to write them differently. However I would like to solve this thing, so I ask you if you could think about it or I will change the names in the other articles (or maybe only in the Dragon Ball Super manga one) [[User:Fleyzk|Fleyzk]] ([[User talk:Fleyzk|talk]]) 20:29, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
:::{{reply to|Fleyzk}} The article for ''[[Dragon Ball Z]]'' uses the spellings that are used in that anime's official English version. The article for ''[[Dragon Ball: Origins]]'' uses the spellings that are used in that game's official English version. And so on, and so on. It's not a matter of Wikipedia decided to use one set of spellings across the entire mass media franchise (that is ''never'' the case for anything), it simply happens that the official English versions of those different works use the same ones. When I was blaming other users, I was referring specifically to "Dragon Ball character articles". Like I said there was a period when we had the manga names for those too. But [[WP:CCC|consensus can change]] and one user came along and got enough people to agree that per [[WP:COMMONNAME]], the Funimation names should be used. But note, that is for those specific character articles and does not mean every other article that mentions the characters has to use those names. Even though consensus can change back to the manga names, I stopped editing DB character articles altogether because like I said too many people are uneducated on the series and don't even know it's a manga. For example, [[Master Roshi]] opens with the line "known in ''Japan'' as Kame Sennin as well as Muten Rōshi". No mention at all as to how those are actually official English names. But my disgust with the character articles is irrelevant. The DB manga page uses the official English manga spellings, there's simply nothing to discuss as far as changing that goes and nothing to "solve" as you put it.
:::''[[Dragon Ball Super]]'' is a different can of worms because it is two significantly different medias, that each use different official spellings, but are both covered in one article. There was never an actual discussion on how to lay that article out; is it a manga first, an anime first, which plot to follow, which spellings to use. The article seems to have recently settled naturally on it being a manga first and foremost, since that one started first and has continued for years while the anime ended. Since you brought this up tho, I'm thinking perhaps there are now enough sources and enough major differences that a split of [[Dragon Ball Super (manga)]] and [[Dragon Ball Super (TV series)]] should be done. [[User:Xfansd|Xfansd]] ([[User talk:Xfansd#top|talk]]) 22:11, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
::::Thank you, now it's all clear. I have only one request: can I write manga names on the Dragon Ball Super article too? So at least the two manga articles would be the same. (And the DB Super manga has become more important than the DB Super anime, which has ended 5 years ago). And then I would like to do some little edits on the Dragon Ball manga article. Not about names, just small things to fix. [[User:Fleyzk|Fleyzk]] ([[User talk:Fleyzk|talk]]) 22:27, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
:::::{{reply to|Fleyzk}} Using manga names on DBS sounds good to me. For the Dragon Ball manga article tho, I just want to point out that I reverted edits where you added an "ō" to the English [[Weekly Shonen Jump (American magazine)]] and [[Shonen Jump (magazine)]], because that is not in their official spellings. I'm also against changing links such as [[Shenlong (Dragon Ball)]] to [[List of Dragon Ball characters#Shenron]] per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]]. All that does is increase the size of the page. Also, you don't need to ask anyone for permission to edit articles. [[User:Xfansd|Xfansd]] ([[User talk:Xfansd#top|talk]]) 22:46, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

== Gackt's new revision on Japanese Wikipedia ==
Hi, do you know Japanese language? Can you help with the new revision of the article [[Gackt]] at [[:ja:GACKT|Japanese Wikipedia]]? I need someone to do [[WP:TRANSLATEUS]] of the article on English Wikipedia in the form which can be found at [[User:Miki Filigranski/sandbox]]. If cannot, do you know some other editors I can ask?--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 08:59, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
Anyway, started a discussion at the article talk page.--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 15:29, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
 
:Hi, I do not know Japanese. Maybe ask someone listed at [[:Category:Translators en-ja]] or [[Wikipedia:Translators_available#Japanese-to-English]]. [[User:Xfansd|Xfansd]] ([[User talk:Xfansd#top|talk]]) 21:52, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
 
== Fujiko Mine edit ==
 
If the assumption isn't good enough, can you explain why Patricia Kobayashi is credited as Fujiko in the Lupin III: The Mystery of Mamo page (I did not put it there). If you want to reply, reply on my talk page. Signed, [[User:Hil-LOL-ious|Hil-LOL-ious]] ([[User talk:Hil-LOL-ious|talk]]) 13:24, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
:{{reply to|Hil-LOL-ious}} It was also added without a source. Then a user made {{Diff|page|prev|1081853379|this kinda vague edit}} which seems to claim the 2021/2022 edition of Discotek's release lists all the Toho actors that were already listed on that Wiki page (which is suspicious) but makes sure to note that they are a "guess" and "not confirmation". I don't have the release and therefore can not personally verify or even clarify exactly what it says. If you wanted the conversation to be on your talk page, you should have started it there.

== Your revert is wrong ==
 
The file name doesn't say it is the prison museum, but as a person who has been there, it is the museum too. It's just an older picture and that's why a newer picture makes more sense so others won't make the same mistake as you. The museum is still what the article is about, it mentions the history of the prison etc too. This is just an older part of the prison uses now as the entrance to the museum. [[User:Nesnad|Nesnad]] ([[User talk:Nesnad|talk]]) 05:36, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
 
:I understand that you've been to the museum, but are you saying you've been to the actual prison too? If so, why didn't you take pics of that? The current infobox image matches [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Abashiri_Prison_02.jpg this pic] (which is used on the Japanese Wikipedia page and is labeled as the actual prison gate), where we can see the space in front of the gate is significantly different than the space in front of the museum [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:130713_Abashiri_Prison_Museum_Abashiri_Hokkaido_Japan08n.jpg here]. Also if you really study them, you can see some differences in the bricks but most notably in that window/hole thing towards the peak. I suppose you could claim Jap Wiki is mistaken and speculate the gate and the area in front of it was rebuilt when they added the fake security guard, but that comes off as a leap. All of this considered, I personally believe them to be of the prison and museum respectively. Regardless, if none of the gate photos are of the actual prison, then I believe the infobox should be photo-less or use that big one in the article from June 2010. We should not give the museum the prominent infobox position. [[User:Xfansd|Xfansd]] ([[User talk:Xfansd#top|talk]]) 22:29, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
::Fair enough. Didn't think they would recreate the same gate. I only saw the current prison from a distance. Checked satellite pictures and I might have been wrong and you could be right. Sorry to bother you. Cheers, [[User:Nesnad|Nesnad]] ([[User talk:Nesnad|talk]]) 19:21, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

==March 2024==
Thanks for adding the source to the Kurama image. By any chance have you seen one for [[Gon Freecss]] by Togashi? I think the one we are using in the article was digitally colored by Shueisha.[[User:Tintor2|Tintor2]] ([[User talk:Tintor2|talk]]) 21:01, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
:It definitely was not colored by Togashi, that's for sure. What do you think about [https://hypebeast.com/hk/2022/8/yoshiro-togashi-hunterxhunter-twitter-update this one] or [https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-03-29/more-jump-manga-creators-draw-for-quake-victims#gallery_2p9w1_ this one]? Sure, neither are perfect. But they are in color and 100% by Togashi, so I personally prefer them over the currently used one. 21:22, 23 March 2024 (UTC)~~
 
Thanks a lot.[[User:Tintor2|Tintor2]] ([[User talk:Tintor2|talk]]) 17:07, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
