Consolidating edits and translation request

edit

Hi, thanks for your additions of the kanji for Fuuka. In the future, can you please use the preview button instead and combine similar edits instead of making them one at a time (my watchlist shows over 100...)? This way you don't clog the edit history, people's watchlists, and recent changes. By the way I also asked User:Bueller_007 about adding the info for Domestic Girlfirend (you should have received a notification about it, if not check their talk page). Sorry it took me so long, if they decline I'll try adding the info myself since the other editors listed aren't that active. Opencooper (talk) 02:41, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper:, I've added a single chapter at once because writing kanji titles are a bit problematic and sometime i mixed them. So it can't be helped, but i think it's not against wikipedia policy. -- Phoenix God (talk) 07:51, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Yeah it's not a policy issue, just troublesome for other editors because all they see is that you made 100 changes and have no clue what they all could be or what happened on the page before that. By the way, I hope you're not entering the titles manually. If you check the Kodansha source for each volume's release date, the retail page actually contains all of the chapter titles that you can just simply copy and paste. Bueller_007 declined to do the Domestic Girlfriend translation so I think it's better off if I just make an attempt myself with machine translation and a dictionary. I'll just use multiple sources to make sure I don't insert any incorrect information, shouldn't be that hard to at least get the factual information. Opencooper (talk) 08:24, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper:, You're right, i have added the titles manually because on the Kodansha website's Fuuka volume's pages there are some event detail at the end of chapter titles and some volumes have extra edition chapters. That's why i wrote them manually to not mistake them for events.
Thank you! Opencooper for trying hard to complete my request about Domestic Girlfriend web movie. -- Phoenix God (talk) 08:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper:, I've created an article Kimi wa Midara na Boku no Joō. But it is not linked to its Japanese counterpart. So i want you to add category to this article and link this to it's Japanese page. Phoenix God (talk) 06:09, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

You can link to the Japanese counterpart by clicking "edit links" in the lower left corner under "Languages" in the sidebar. The article is being proposed for deletion, but I've done all of that for you. Demographic in the infobox actually comes from which magazine the manga is being serialized and whether that's shōnen, seinen, shōjo, or josei. By the way, in order to respect copyright, you have to make sure that everything you write is in your own words, other than short quotations, so I've deleted the plot summary which seemed to have been based off the MyAnimeList summary. I tried to find sources to contest the deletion (the book notability guideline requires in-depth coverage in at least two sources) but I unfortunately wasn't able to find any since the series has not been licensed in North America nor in other regions. ANN is just a news site that reports on multiple series, so merely being covered on it isn't enough, but rather notability requires coverage in multiple reliable sources. You can find examples of these at WP:A&M/ORS.
P.S. I still haven't forgotten about Domestic Girlfriend but I've been busy lately so haven't been able to get to it, sorry.
Let me know if you need any clarifications, I know it can be a lot to navigate. Opencooper (talk) 07:01, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper:, Thank you for help, and i want to ask you that Is it wrong to edit on an article that is being proposed for deletion. One more thing ; Did coverage on website Natalie can be used as notability material. Also, Can i use sources that are available on Japanese wikipedia to prove notability.
I'm sorry for the plot editing. I didn't mean to brake any policy. I just think that MyAnimeList is a user genrated site, so there's is no copyright issue if i wrote a summary based on it. --- Phoenix God (talk) 07:17, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
You can edit it, especially to add sources, just as long as the creator themselves doesn't remove the proposed deletion tag without addressing the issue. Natalie is also a news website and it merely reporting factual information wouldn't be enough. The type of coverage for manga at least that is needed is reviews, and in English those rarely happen for non-licensed manga. Just two reviews of more than a few paragraphs would be sufficient, and they don't need to be in English as long as they are considered reliable sources. (the link in my previous comment has good ones for anime and manga, but again if the manga isn't licensed, it's highly unlikely to have been reviewed by media so that makes it hard to write about new manga even if the author is famous) Other criteria that can also be used is if the manga is a bestseller (as evident in sale records) or if it won major awards.
About the copyright thing, it's okay, the policy isn't intuitive, but even anonymous works can't be copied unless explicitly allowed in a license like Wikipedia is. See Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing if you need more information.
Hope that helps. Opencooper (talk) 07:30, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper:, I've added some new references on the Kimi wa Midara na Boku no Joō article. So can you take a look at them. I think the template can be removed now. --- Phoenix God (talk) 11:22, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper:, Sorry to trouble you again, but some anonymous user has removed the proposed deletion tag on the Kimi wa Midara na Boku no Joō article instead of the creator. What should i do now? --- Phoenix God (talk) 11:19, 27 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Sorry about not being able to look into it before. Also, apologies, but I actually gave you wrong advice: you're allowed to contest proposed deletions for any reason, it was speedy deletions that the creator can't contest. My mistake. Though keep in mind that someone can still start a deletion discussion at Articles for Deletion which is why it's usually better to improve the article first. So for now it's fine. See Wikipedia:Deletion process. Opencooper (talk) 17:12, 27 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper:, I'm being able to contest the proposed deletion is not the problem right now. The thing is that an anonymous user has removed the tag from the article without notifying the User who placed it. --- 17:50, 27 July 2017 (UTC)~Reply
Hmm, according to WP:DEPROD, this is not required but is "strongly encouraged". The proposer will likely see it anyway as they'll have the article on their watchlist. Opencooper (talk) 05:32, 28 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper:, Can you please add categories in List of Angel Heart chapters article. -- 09:20, 31 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sure, the only cat you need for these is Category:Lists of manga volumes and chapters. Btw, make sure you sign your comments with four tildes or else it won't come out right or ping the user you tag. Opencooper (talk) 21:50, 31 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: Thanks for your help, and i always sign my comment. It's just that last time i mistakenly forgot that. --- Phoenix God (talk) 10:44, 1 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
As you already know that i have created the List of Angel Heart chapters. But the english title of the chapters are not available, so i added Romaji title to understand the Kanji title. Now, I want to confirm that is it okay add only Kanji title. Also, can i translate and add english titles myself. -- Phoenix God (talk) 10:59, 1 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, it's a bit of a gray area since in general the Animanga project prefers licensed titles when there are any. (in the past, I've used scanlation titles in lieu of them) Kanji alone would be iffy but with romaji it's just fine right now. If you want to, you could translate the titles, but you should note that they are unofficial translations. As long as you're sure you can translate the titles properly, as machine translation isn't reccomended and it can be a lot of work. Opencooper (talk) 01:36, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: I just want to confirm two things.
(1)- If i add Kanji and Romaji chapter name of a series which is not available in english. Then those chapter name remain on wikipedia or they will be deleted by administrators.
(2)- Can i add english chapter name, if i translate them myself using dictionary instead of Google Translate.

Phoenix God (talk) 11:20, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

No, kanji or romaji wouldn't be deleted. Regarding your second question though, the issue is that you're translating as someone not knowledgable in the language. Translation requires proficiency in both languages and often, knowledge of the source culture as well. If all you use is a dictionary, you will succeed at getting a literal translation, but this often misses important nuances or the intended sense of the phrase. (not to mention the titles are often saying something about the theme of a chapter itself) The result ends up looking awkward and oftentimes isn't close to how a professional would translate. While there's nothing stopping you from doing it, I think your time would be better spent elsewhere, as the romaji titles are sufficient. (As an example, compare the kanji to the English titles on List of Fuuka chapters) Opencooper (talk) 11:54, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: Okay, I understand your point. I wanted to add english titles because someone has placed a tag on the List of Angel Heart chapters, and wrote below that the Japanese titles are not supposed to be on english wikipedia and the page will be proposed to deleted if not gets translated. So i want to confirm that is there any policy on wikipedia that stops me from translating chapter or not, because if there is no policy against it then i will ask someone who know Japanese and add english titles myself. -- Phoenix God (talk) 12:10, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper: Thank you for adding details about Domestic Girlfriend web movie. -- Phoenix God (talk) 12:12, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

You're welcome. The tag is more meant for article content written in another language rather than just chapter titles, so it was being misused since romaji was also available. There aren't many guidelines on translation, but for using non-English sources for example it is reccomended that "Translations published by reliable sources are preferred over translations by Wikipedians, but translations by Wikipedians are preferred over machine translations." At the end of the day, it's not a huge deal since its just chapter titles rather than anything contentious. Opencooper (talk) 01:43, 3 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper: What does it mean when i see a message on my notifications about a page i created gets reviewed, and there is no difference on page than before. The person who reviewed the the page didn't mention anything on his talk page. Is this a good news or bad? --- Phoenix God (talk) 18:50, 3 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

It's nothing to worry about. Basically, every new page is marked as unpatrolled until a patroller reviews the page. They'll do quick basic checks like making sure the article doesn't meet speedy deletion criteria or lacks notability. If it was reviewed without any additional tags or action, that means the reviewer thought it was fine. Opencooper (talk) 23:54, 3 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper: I've just now created an article on The Cowards Who Looked to the Sky film. So can you please find some review on this film for notability. -- Phoenix God (talk) 17:57, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper: I've just now created another article on Wikipedia named Haru's Journey. So can you please add categories in this article.

Also, Can you add those reviews that you leave on The Cowards Who Looked to the Sky's talk page into the article. --- Phoenix God (talk) 19:35, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Done, for film articles you just need the country of origin, language, year, and production companies. Regarding the reviews, I don't mind doing it but I likely won't get to it right away. (adding the sources to the talk page preempts questions about notability) It takes me a while to actually feeling like reading sources and writing content for articles. You could do it as well if you don't want to wait. You just have to word it like "[Author first name] [last name] from [publication] [verb for 'said']..." and then write their main feelings on the film.

@Opencooper: Can you please tell me the notability guideline for an upcoming Anime Television Series that is Orignal series and not adapted from a manga. --- Phoenix God (talk) 15:11, 10 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

To be honest, in my experience people just create articles for future series and no one even bothers to challenge them, so maybe the area isn't that contentious. In general of course there's the GNG, which just requires coverage in reliable sources. For more specific guidance, see WP:TVSHOW. Opencooper (talk) 04:33, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

[Arbitrary break]

edit

@Opencooper: I added a rating of Tokyo Ghoul (film) by an editor of The Japan Times in the reception. But, now i noticed that he rated the film on July 26, and the film released on July 29. So does it possible that it has no value on Wikipedia? Phoenix God (talk) 18:21, 25 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

No, it's fine. In fact, it's quite common for reviewers to have seen films earlier than the general populace. What you're looking at is the general release date in Japan, but there are usually earlier screenings for many films and even critics screenings just for reviewers. In this case, for Tokyo Ghoul, there were two festival screenings before then (Fantasia is a common one for reviewers of Asian cinema) and even a US screening at Anime Expo, so that would explain that.
About the information you added though, I'd caution against just saying how many stars a film has been given since the criteria varies for each reviewer, and by itself doesn't really tell readers how the reviewer reacted to the film. Opencooper (talk) 20:11, 25 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: I do know that films are often have special screening events. But the article doesn't contain details about film's screening in Anime Expo. That's why i ask you. Also, i think that the film's first screening date at Anime Expo should be used in the article. Phoenix God (talk) 13:41, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Opencooper: Do you know something about Comic Pool ? Is this a Web Magzine or a Manga Distribution Site? A series of this this Site is getting anime television series in 2018. So i need details of this site to create article of that series. The only thing i know right now that this site is a joint project of Ichijinsha and Pixiv. Phoenix God (talk) 13:53, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

These sources call it a "web comic" website. Looking at the jawiki articles for some titles, original works are published on it. So you could say that Ichijinsha is publishing these titles on Pixiv's platform (which serves as the distributor). Other than that, it's not really a magazine (the internet makes these kinds of distinctions hazy anyway), but just individual titles. So I think the best way to describe it would be a site for the publication of web manga Opencooper (talk) 22:28, 27 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for explaining to me. Anyway, what demographic should i use for a series of Comic Pool website. Phoenix God (talk) 16:42, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, I'm not sure. You'd have to look at how it describes itself or what other sources say its target audience is. For print publications, on the List of manga magazines page, Japanese Magazine Publishers Association and Media Arts Database are used as sources, but I don't think they have digital publications on there. Just be careful not to stereotype the manga and assume its demographic based on that—I've heard some people say "the author draws big eyes, so it must be shojo!"—even though demographic is based on the magazine rather than manga itself.

@Opencooper: Can you please place the infobox image of City Hunter article into the List of City Hunter chapters article? Because i don't know how add a single image into two different articles. Phoenix God (talk) 10:03, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi, all you have to do is use the regular image code, which is within two square brackets start with the filename (including the File: prefix), then a pipe, then the keyword "thumb" for thumbnail, and finally a caption if you want one. So this is how the current image was placed: [[File:City Hunter (Jump Comics edition volume 1).jpg|thumb|Volume 31 of the Jump Comics edition, depicting Ryo Saeba and his supporting cast]]. However, legally, since these images are being used under fair use, you need another fair use rationale for this image's use on the list article also. I'm not sure what's wrong with the current one, but you can see it's description page for a model to follow. Opencooper (talk) 19:19, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: I want to replace that image because it is of 31st volume not the 1st volume, and on the wikipedia we always use the cover of first volume in infobox. The user who uploaded the image lie that it is of first volume. That's why i have uploaded the image of first volume and placed it on "City Hunter" article. Now i want you to just add another fair use rational in the image that i uploaded, so that i can add that in the "List of City Hunter chapters". Phoenix God (talk) 19:37, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
I wouldn't say always. School Rumble uses the 13th volume in order to show the characters and it passed being a Featured Article. And okay, I mostly just copied the old one. Opencooper (talk) 19:43, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: That must be an exception because [1989] the User who nominated Naruto for Featured Article once told me that per guideline we should use the cover of first volume. Phoenix God (talk) 19:55, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, possibly. The general trend is to use the first volume, I was just showing a notable exception. I would also suggest in general to ignore all rules when you they get in the way of improving the encyclopedia :). Opencooper (talk) 20:09, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sure. The term refers to edits by those new to Wikipedia where they are merely testing how the editing system works. Often this might involve adding gibberish or removing text. The point of using a specific term for the edits is to assume good faith on part of the editor instead of accusing them of vandalism. See Wikipedia:Vandalism#Editing_tests_by_experimenting_users for more info. Opencooper (talk) 03:52, 17 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Opencooper: I created an article named Osake wa Fūfu ni Natte kara some days ago. It's about a Manga that debuted on "Shogakukan"'s free magazine "Yawaraka Spirits". Now, there's is a problem, according to an article of ANN, it looks like the series is of Big Comic Spirits magazine. So I wrote in the article that it is being serialized in the "Big Comic Spirits". Another source states the same thing, so the series must've some connection with the "Big Comic Spirits" for sure. That's why, I want you to help me in finding out, exactly in which magazine the manga is being serialized. One more thing, at the cover of the first volume "Big Spirits Comic Special" is written. Is this a Lable or Imprint of "Shogakukan"? - Phoenix God (talk) 10:30, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Okay, so the ANN source actually only mentions Big Comic Spirits as announcing the anime. natalie says that it is serialized at the Yawaraka Spirits website. The jawiki article links to this site for the manga, and the hiragana reads "Yawaraka Spirits" while the text under says "Big Comics Spirits Presents". The jawiki article for Yawaraka Spirits is at ja:やわらかスピリッツ, which describes it as a "web manga distribution site" and calls it the "third spirits" next to Big Comics Spirits and Monthly Spirits (natalie concurs). Based on those two factors, I'd say it's a sister publication of Big Comic Spirits that is online. It still gets published under "Big Spirits Comic Special" because I think that's for print. Lastly about label vs imprint, I'm not sure the distinction is so important, but I'd call it a label since it's what Shogakukan publishes its spirits comics under it seems; not 100% about that though. Opencooper (talk) 05:48, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: Thanks for doing all the research, but it still leaves the question that in which magazine the manga is currently being serialized. Because at the ANN, all the articles related to manga states only one thing that it debuted on Yawaraka Spirits magazine. So I know only three things right now, First: the publisher is Shogakukan, Second: the magazine at which the manga debuted is Yawaraka Spirits, and Third: the label is Big Spirits Comic Special. In the end, I don't understand the Big Comic Spirits magazine's relation to the manga. Phoenix God (talk) 19:22, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
It's being serialized online in Yawaraka Spirits. See the first natalie source I linked. The "Big Spirits Comic Special" label is what Shogakukan is using for printing the manga since Yawaraka Spirits is online only (the relation is that they're sister publications in Shogakukan's "Spirits" line). Regarding ANN, there are a few times it mentions Yawaraka Spirits, but you have to consider that ANN only has finite resources and can't cover every manga publication, instead mostly focusing on popular ones. Opencooper (talk) 21:30, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Opencooper: Oh! Now I understand, it's a Webcomic series, similar to Otaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii. Phoenix God (talk) 07:21, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Naruto image

edit

I feel that the image you added to Naruto's article could be better used in the character list (per guidelines we use the first volume's cover) rather than the series' article. What do you think?Tintor2 (talk) 23:58, 10 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Tintor2: and thanks for telling me this. Since that image is created by Masashi Kishimoto and is related to the article, so i just think that it can convey the meaning of article better the first volume's cover because Naruto is not just about manga.
Anyway, if a user who has more experience on wikipedia than me, like you will place this on List of characters than i will also be glad. And please change the image's description on its page. -- Phoenix God (talk) 05:09, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@1989: I've noticed that you reverted an edit of mine on Naruto article. But i didn't find any reference about Quil Award and about Cartoon Network announcing the broadcast of Naruto. Phoenix God (talk) 08:37, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

You have to read the article in order to find it. There's even sections that will bring you to the right place. If it wasn't there, the content wouldn't be in the lead. -- 1989 08:39, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@1989: But you wrote in the edit summary that there's already a reference about Quil Award. So can tell me the number of reference that tells about quill award. Phoenix God (talk) 08:43, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Cartoon Network on ref 57 and Quill Award on ref 170. -- 1989 08:45, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@1989: Thank you! And if you read the manga than you should know that, the image i have uploaded contains the most of the important characters that appears during "The Fourth Great Ninja War" event. -- 08:49, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

The article isn't about "The Fourth Great Ninja War", it's about the manga as a whole. I would like to mention that due to the size, readers will be unable to have a clear visual look of what the characters look like, and you can't make it any larger due to image policy concerning copyright images. -- 1989 09:10, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@1989: Okay i will leave that Tintor2. But tell me one thing. Can i make an article about Itachi Shinden[1] Phoenix God (talk) 09:15, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

I doubt it since I don't think it can pass WP:Notability. I would suggest you to use Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan as an example of how small book can get its own article. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 13:39, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Tintor2: Can you place that image on the List of Characters page. Because i don't know what to right in description article. Phoenix God (talk) 14:15, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Now that I check the image again, I'm afraid we can't add it since it contains Japanese words that might confuse readers. By the way, do you know of an original Orochimaru manga image colored by Kishimoto. Its article is in need of a better one.Tintor2 (talk) 14:47, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Tintor2: I've uploaded a different version of that image that doesn't contains the Japanese words. So it can be placed that in List of Characters.

Also, I think that I've seen an artwork of Orochimaru by Kishimoto. But give me some time to find it.Phoenix God (talk) 15:35, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Don't worry.Tintor2 (talk) 23:23, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Tintor2: I've remembered that i saw an artwork of Orochimaru in the Naruto: The First Official Character Data Book on page 46, but right now i don't have the databook. So i can't upload it. But I've found another artwork of Orochimaru on Naruto Uncut Box Set 15[2]

One more thing, as i have said before, i have uploaded another version of that artwork [Naruto, Orignal Artwork.jpg]. And this version doesn't contains Japanese words, so can you add that in the List of Characters. Because it will be deleted if remains unused. Phoenix God (talk) 05:29, 12 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Replacing images

edit

I don't have a problem with replacing blurry images with cleaner versions as I have done that myself. However, unless you have to change the file format or are replacing the original image with an entirely different one—such as from a different volume or medium—it is best to upload the cleaner image over the older one instead of creating a new upload as you did with A Silent Voice (manga). —Farix (t | c) 14:53, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

By any chance could you find a larger version of this image. We might them cut a part and give it to Orochimaru's article since it's the only Naruto article lacking an image colored by Kishimoto or Shueisha. Happy new year.Tintor2 (talk) 20:11, 31 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Naruto, Original Artwork.jpg

edit
 

A tag has been placed on File:Naruto, Original Artwork.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", or "used with permission"; and it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

  • state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
  • add the relevant copyright tag and if necessary, a complete fair use rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
