FLC nominations and reviewsHi, Tintor2. You may not be aware, but the new Featured list criteria was implemented Sunday 5 April, 00:56 (UTC) following two weeks of discussion at Wikipedia talk:Featured list criteria#New criterion discussion. I've gone through the nominations and have noticed you have !voted Support, Oppose or Neutral at the following nominations:
Please could you take the time to revisit the articles and candidate pages, and check them against the new Featured list criteria, and confirm/revise your !vote; any !vote made against the old criteria that is not confirmed against the new criteria will be ignored when the nomination is closed. Finally, please accept my apologies for the brusqueness of this message; the same wording is being sent to everyone who has outstanding reviews, with only the names of lists being changed. Regards, Matthewedwards : Chat 05:15, 9 April 2009 (UTC) Re: YuriStart with the first appearance and go from there. That should work out great. By the way, have you had any luck finding sources to possibly revive K9999 or Angel's articles? That poll comes to mind as a possibility there is something out there as reception for the characters, and SNK's own note that K9999's popular in Korea.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 19:54, 10 April 2009 (UTC) Re: The SequelSince none of the spirits are that noteworthy (except maybe Tsubaki), you could just cut the section altogether. As an example for how to generalize: "Orihime's hair clips are six fairy-like creatures that allow her to perform special abilities. Three do X... Two others do Y... The final, Tsubaki, is her only attack-based fairy... Tsubaki is destroyed at blah blah, leaving her unable to participate in battles for part of the series until he is later restored." Also, if you're interested in an image with all of the spirits, I cropped this from the Bleach artbook. ~SnapperTo 03:44, 24 April 2009 (UTC) I ref'd the 29. I'm not sure about the 30 since I don't see anything about a birthday in volume 15. I know in volume 11 that Arakawa says he would be 30 if she paid attention to the passage of time. But again, I don't see anything in volume 15. ~SnapperTo 02:19, 9 July 2009 (UTC) Arakawa uses "Ishval", Viz and Funimation use "Ishbal". I prefer the latter, but either way it's going to be something that's switched by IPs. ~SnapperTo 04:11, 14 July 2009 (UTC) List of Fullmetal Alchemist Characters - Shou TuckerHi, I've noticed you frequent the List of Fullmetal Alchemist characters page (and other similar FMA lists/articles), and was wondering if I could request your help with something. Dragonmaster88 is attempting to start an edit war over a repeated grammatical edit under the Shou Tucker section.[1 2 The statement he is trying to change is not grammatically incorrect, and read as follows:
Initially, the sentence read (as do most other paragraphs on the list):
My intention is better clarify the language combining the subjects in one half of the sentence instead of splitting the subjects across both halves. It reads and flows better. It's a purely aesthetic choice, language wise, but grammatically my proposed edit does read better and is more academically sound than the former choice. However, Dragonmaster88 doesn't seem to be currently communicating on the issue, his talk page reveals a history of similar 3RR occurrences (and bans), and I've just left a 3RR warning on his page. I was hoping a third opinion on the subject would prematurely stop an edit war.
Thanks again,
RE:Terry BogardSorry for the late copy edit, but I finally did a sweep of the article. I think it would be a toss up at GAN because of the limited development info. Also, I would suggest switching out some sources. Like the IMDB ones, maybe see if you can get the info from AnimeNewsNetwork or MobyGames. I'm not sure if VGMdb, Vc-reviews, and GamingExcellence satisfy WP:RS either. The last bit of advice I have is to go through the "In video games" section to see which details you really need. Some could be trimmed, but I'm not familiar with the series. Just ask yourself if the info pertains to Terry Bogard or the video game he appeared in. Other than that the articles is much improved from before you started working on it. Keep up the good work. (Guyinblack25 talk 17:58, 30 April 2009 (UTC))
RE: Gantz conceptionUnfortunately, I don't think there are many interviews with Oku. However, there seems to be one on an English boxset(s), but I don't own them. Even then, I don't know what he talks about. I'll also help in the search, and I've been thinking about buying the anime anyway. WhiteArcticWolf (talk) 19:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Wow, that is a lot to translate...But it must contain lots of concept/creation on the series and characters. It doesn't seem like any scanlating group did anything either...Maybe someone could email Dark Horse, just to see if they have plans for an English release? I doubt it, but apparently Gantz is selling very well. Other than that, I don't think there is much available. I've heard that it was translated into French, too, but I don't speak that, either. WhiteArcticWolf (talk) 21:13, 5 May 2009 (UTC) RE: Credibility...I addressed your issue on the KoF XII page but I'd like to say that I wasn't actually citing cyberfanatix as the source, only using their copy of the image to post as a link. The article was a genuine Famitsu scan, I don't see how that can be refuted. I made the change as you requested but I feel like maybe that was stretching the necessity of credibility into an extreme. It's just my opinion. SuperSonicTH (talk) 13:22, 7 May 2009 (UTC) Re: Few QuestionsI also thought that at first (I proposed a move a while back, but apparently, I was the only participating editor at the time). While I was waiting for a reply, however, I ended up reading WP:COMMONAME and realized "Tsuna Sawada" is most likely the best name for the article, since that is what he is most commonly referred to as (and not just in the Japanese versions, but in VIZ's English version as well). So, as long as the article starts out as Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada, the article name basically complies with Wikipedia's standards. As for the infobox image, I'll try to find one that shows more of his characteristics. →DarkAngel007 06:42, 9 May 2009 (UTC) Just here to touch base with you on the section about the original ending. The original ending section commented on the way manga was ended with a cliffhanger in it's original run, never resolving the plot. Now they've gone back and given it a proper ending with the re-release but for 5 years that was the end of the story. That said, what would the author need to confirm?

Bleach episode listsHello, I've been rather busy lately so I haven't had a chance to get to List of Bleach episodes (season 10) (needs to get to FL) and List of Bleach episodes (season 11) (needs to be peer reviewed) for the Seasons of Bleach FT. If possible, could you spruce each up a bit (non-news ANN sources need to be replaced, cutting down the plot would be nice, update them for DVDs or whatnot if necessary) and I can do a copy-edit afterwards? I should have more time in a week or so to get to them, but that's when the deadline is, so any help would be greatly appreciated. — sephiroth bcr (converse) 22:29, 30 May 2009 (UTC) Bleach songs (Question left at User talk:NocturneNoir)Nice work in the Bleach seasons article, it helped a lot with the replacing of ANN refs.

Famitsu review archive somewhere?Trying to find some info on the 1989 Famitsu review of The Final Fantasy Legend but not able to find the actual review, just that it got a score of 35/40. Their own website didn't help much either. Do you know anywhere to look?--Kung Fu Man (talk) 21:23, 1 June 2009 (UTC) Re: Reborn! imagesWell, I couldn't find a decent image of Hibari using his spiked ball, but I did change his future image into one with him using his flaming tonfas (I think that can be used in his abilities section too). ⇒DarkAngel007 06:06, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
lol I completely forgot he had his own article (I should probably put it on my watchlist). Anyways, I added a picture containing both Lambos to Lambo (Reborn!). ⇒DarkAngel007 05:01, 15 June 2009 (UTC) Shaman King Cover Image & OthersHey. I thought I'd at least bring this to your attention before changing it, but I think that we need to integrate much more of the KangZengBang aspect of the series into the article, beginning with the cover image used on the main page. I would like to replace it with a cover image of KZB volume 1, which I have readily available. I think that making these changes will make the article much more informative, and we would be doing a disservice if we didn't add more information concerning KZB and the extras included in the re-release of the anime in boxed-set form. With the release of Mentalite, which I also have debound and ready to scan, the Side Stories section will need to be updated as well. I hope we can work together to make this article the best it can be. Thanks. Jezebel Parks (talk) 04:40, 13 June 2009 (UTC) Re: ShueishaI'm not too sure about the specific dates, I just added the ones that appeared under the heading. The Gin Tama date is really throwing me off though: it's the second 2004 issue, but dated to December 2003. ~Itzjustdrama ? C 17:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC) I think this edit was actually right.

Good work! Dandy Sephy (talk) 15:37, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
Marking major edits as minorSorry to be a pain, but I noticed you have a habit of marking major edits as minor. While minor edits are fine for typos, corrections and such, the addition of multiple references, and new statements is almost never a minor edit. While I have no need to check all your edits, it's quite confusing seeing the noticeable addition of content being marked as minor (often over 1000 bytes). Any chance you can be a bit more careful with your "minor" edits? Thanks. Dandy Sephy (talk) 15:53, 24 June 2009 (UTC) Kate Austencheck DISCUSSION PAGE for additional info. Thanks Whippletheduck (talk) 03:35, 4 July 2009 (UTC) RE:Mortal Kombat: DeceptionGave it a copy edit. You may want to give it another look to make sure my edits didn't change the intend meaning. The articles looks in very good shape and should pass GAN with little issue. Keep up the good work.

Thanks. Do you know which is the journal and issue from such image. The point is that season 11 is going througout a peer review in which it was asked about how the seasons are splitted. Does season 11 have a name according to the image? The problem with the Anime News Network reference is that such page belongs to the encyclopedia section which is user edited and makes it unreliable. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 21:26, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
DBZ character talk pageHey mate. I'm asking if you'd be interested to check out the section I opened on the DBZ character talk page in regards to merging. It deals with moving many of the characters listed in the secondary section to the other (tertiary) section, as many more influential and important characters have now been merged or deleted. It would only be proper to sustain and maintain the same consensus on the entire page; I haven't made any changes as of yet as it may not be considered constructive to move characters without a proper debate. Those that are debatable, I've listed them in the same format and hope to get your vote for keeps and merges into the other section. I've only listed the ones I've found to be primarily lesser appearing characters and who are limited to one or two sagas at the most in their appearance, or remain background characters for the most part. As many of the characters who are listed in the secondary section are actually much lesser than those in the other, I was hoping to hear from you and get your votes on the matter. - Zarbon (talk) 23:53, 19 July 2009 (UTC) Sony Samurai XI know it aired in the Philippines countless times, and I see a Cartoon Network stamp on the Samurai X Sony episodes I see on YouTube (Cartoon Network is in the Philippines).

Fullmetal Alchemists settingI put my work on hold about a week ago as I noticed the ugly truth. Tell me why you're so hostile to this idea, actually? The articles you deleted do not violate WP:FICT and WP:PLOT even though they were poor quality work. Basically we had a huge set of interesting articles related to Fullmetal Alchemist that could've been improved by people like me. Don't you like the series? If you don't, then simply stay away from it and everything will be alright. I don't like many things in my life... so I don't even talk about them. In my opinion, your behaviour is highly disruptive. You deny people knowledge. It's not the first time I see this, though. Most people here seem hostile and either ignore or insult those like me. Very soon, however, I'll be an expert no less than you are. OutOfTimer Wanna chat? 04:07, 24 July 2009 (UTC) Your activity here consists primarily of vandalising work by other people. If there is a piece of unsourced information - source it. If you can't source it - add [citation needed] template so somebody else can source it. The only thing you do as for now is destroying everything in sight. I've spent hours upon hours on studying Wikipedia guidlines and policies and your attitude becomes increasingly annoying as you try to vandalise that effort. OutOfTimer Wanna chat? 14:51, 25 July 2009 (UTC) Of course you can't simply delete an article as you don't have Admin rights. You can blank it, though. Try these two. It is my opinion that both Manga and Anime have the same level of importance. The fact that you pretend one of them is superior to the other is your own problem. I'm asking you for the last time not to interfere with my work. Each person here tries to contribute the way they can and add something. Problems start if somebody tracks those edits and reverts them due to their personal preferences. OutOfTimer Wanna chat? 02:08, 26 July 2009 (UTC) I read your summary page already. They don't violate any of these - it's only your vivid imagination. Moreover, you don't own the articles, too, and it is your blanking that is truely unconstructive. We have a term for this here. It's called WP:GAME. If you don't believe Manga is more important, then stop spamming references should be preferably from Manga. You do revert edits according to your personal preferences and I don't like when old users don't want to mind their own business. OutOfTimer Wanna chat? 02:29, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Mortal Kombat: Deception mini-reviewTossing this your way before I tackle the GAN. The prose in several parts of the article bugs me somewhat...not that it's badly written though. It's basically, well...pausing too much, making the article difficult to read at some points. Take the below for example: "The Midway Staff focused on the designs and functions of the backgrounds. They wanted to make the backgrounds be as influential to the outcome of the battle as the fighting between characters." Seems to flow a lot better as: "The Midway Staff focused on the designs and functions of the backgrounds, wanting to make them be as influential to the outcome of the battle as the fighting between characters." Read aloud it comes across smoother. Not trying to bust your butt about this here, I know you know your stuff and the article is extremely well sourced. But this is the one hangup I have with the article in its current form.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 11:20, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Just two refs missing for the 2nd and 3rd character polls (Can't find the right vol and pg). ~Itzjustdrama ? C 22:39, 24 August 2009 (UTC) GantzEhh, for some reason, I thought you were one of those 'let's DELETE BECAUSE IT'S UNSOURCED, AHURRAHUUR' types, despite the fact that it's plain common sense. Whether Oku has confirmed it or not, it's blatantly obvious, or atleast a pretty major coincidence that; In the 7th Gantz DVD, Chiaki did a commentary saying she'd like to play a character if a movie was made. A little while later, which character shows up? Kill Bill. Who was in Kill Bill? Chiaki Kuriyama. The character is -visually- based off of Chiaki; the nose, the lips, the hair; any simple analysis of the character and the actress will prove conclusively that the character was based off of Chiaki. It's just common sense. I have a few links, but I'm no good at sourcing, so, if it's so important for it being sourced, you can do a simple google search for information on her interview, the DVD which confirms her interview, or even slap together a comparison chart of Chiaki and Chiaki (By the way, I don't ever recall her explicitly being called Chiaki in the manga, although I may be wrong. And if she is, well, that makes it EVEN MORE OBVIOUS.) for good evidence and proof. You speak spanish, right? You can find the interview (in espanol~) with Chiaki on youtube, so if you wanna source that for the "I'd like to play a Gantz character, teehee" comment you can. But really, I doubt anyone's going to care whether that statement is sourced or not, considering the OBVIOUSNESS OF IT. It's like saying "if you get shot, it'll hurt!" doesn't have to be sourced for a person to know that getting shot = pain. Just like a person doesn't have to have it sourced that the character is based (Visually, at least) off of Chiaki Kuriyama; she's even called Kill Bill, (which Chiaki was in) mind you, so... That goes without saying that obvious reference is obvious. It's just... Obvious! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiu-chan (talk • contribs) 00:31, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
Mmmkay. You know, and I know, that the character in Gantz looks like Chiaki Kuriyama, and that the author awknowledges it as well via his naming of her 'Kill Bill'. How can we word this so that it stands up as a fact? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiu-chan (talk • contribs) 01:44, 9 August 2009 (UTC) Youtube Video sourcesI saw your conversation with another user here and I'd like to ask you if you could explain to me (or point me to an article that does) what is wrong with using youtube videos as sources, besides copyright infringement of course. I don't believe Midway/WB is big on copyright, as there are many videos of Mortal Kombat are on youtube. I thank you in advance for your response.

Re: Fullmetal AlchemistYep, used to watch the anime but ended up sticking the manga ultimately: it feels a lot better paced, even though it only comes out once a month. I read Naruto and One Piece some too when they come out on Onemanga as well. As for the section you found, I was going to start an article on Armstrong awhile back since he's a favorite of mine and has some tiny info from what I've read, but put it aside after an hour of searching digging up only that one reference. I'll probably tackle it again down the line, focusing on video game articles atm still (thus the huge Bayonetta character dev section...damn she had a lot). Got plans to carpet bomb GAN towards year's end with my work.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 02:29, 9 August 2009 (UTC) Height and character articlesFor the record I actually list these in articles if I can cite them under the design section (and three-sizes for the ladies), it makes it easier to compare one character with another.

Controversy Section in Mortal Kombat (series)BTW, i've been meaning to ask you, why don't we make a controversy section under reception? I have a link of a few newspaper articles saying along the lines that Mortal Kombat(during its golden age) was a potential advocate of shootings[3] and "desenitizing children." Even going as far as saying MKT was one of teh potential reasons behind Columbine [4] . Counter reactions to what people protested about MK, Games aren't what they used to be, and more. Of course, the articles themselves seem little questionable, because it isn't as popular as "Business wire" but I can assure you that you can google these articles and will be able to find them elsewhere. I'm asking you specifically because of your view on editing pages is very opposite of ine, so I would ask you to be a sort of devil's advocate for me. So that I would be able to add more to what made MK famous rather than just one line that seems like original research. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 15:32, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Vincent ValentineNicely done! I'd given up on the article awhile back, good to see I was proven wrong about it.

WhisperToMe (talk) 17:20, 16 August 2009 (UTC) As for the bird head thing in Sanosuke, I'm adding it back. It's NOT only Cho. It's also Jin-e and a host of others. In fact it made the glossary for that reason (notice the ref is of one of the glossaries at the end of each volume) - Whenever something makes the glossary, it is something that recurrs at least in that volume. WhisperToMe (talk) 18:09, 16 August 2009 (UTC) http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sagara_Sanosuke&diff=308312515&oldid=308312101
Here's why it is important:
1. It is important to state the first year of Manen, because in the Meiji era people referred to years by the era name (i.e. first year of Meiji, first year of man'en) instead of a year (1877, etc)
2. If one is going to have an entire article about a fictional character, then one needs to mention where he/she is born.
3.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sagara_Sanosuke&diff=next&oldid=308312564 You said that one reference is enough here. Does the other ref say that Sanosuke did this at age 9?
In many cases fair use justifications are made or strengthened when an article discusses critically the aspect of a design of something. For instance in a recent discussion in Wikipedia:Nonfree many editors agreed that historical logos can be used only if the logos are discussed in the article from sourced material, i.e. a company explains why it made this logo, etc. It's a similar principle with fictional characters; I looked at the Naruto and Mew Mew lists and I do not see discussions of the creation and conception of the visual design of specific characters. Because of that the lists would not have images of these characters by themselves. In RuroKen's case, Watsuki discusses how and why he designed many of his characters, so there are fair use justifications for many of the characters for that series. If you see List of Death Note characters, a similar principle happens; Ohba and Obata discuss how certain characters were designed, and those characters (but nobody else) get individual photos. Wikipedia:Nonfree#Non-free_image_use_in_list_articles says "Images which are discussed in detail in the context of the article body, such as a discussion of the art style, or a contentious element of the work, are preferable to those that simply provide visual identification of the elements."
I'll see if I can find a better quality of a group photo of the main characters. In the meantime I consolidated all of Shishio's faction on to that one image, except for Senkaku; because he isn't in the group pic he still has his own image.

Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 15:30, 25 August 2009 (UTC) I've found these sites filled with aggregate scores and plenty of reviews of all Mortal Kombat games ever to exist. I am not exagerrating. http://search.gamestats.com/products?domain=on&query=Mortal+kombat This search also includes the ports to handhelds. Would this be reliable information to put on the MK game articles? First Mortal Kombat game made in 10 monthsI have found more articles that I require feedback on. I have found two articles that say that MK1 was created in 10 months. (There used to be an actual link to the article in html form on the official deseret news site but it was removed from the site) And also an interview with Ed Boon with the Official Nintendo Magazine corroborates this. http://web.archive.org/web/20071023152817/http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/news_060707_mortal.html But a more reliable-appearing article says that it was created in five and a half months. http://www.shacknews.com/featuredarticle.x?id=23 Which should we use to put on the Mortal Kombat 1 article so that we have more conception information? Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 01:03, 8 September 2009 (UTC) The reviews will take a while putting it on all articles, but i'm willing. As for the second part, sounds good.

http://www.shacknews.com/featuredarticle.x?id=23 (The same article just a few lines above this post) states, "Mortal Kombat was created by Midway Games in only five and a half months as a competitor for the hugely popular Street Fighter II..." While I don't believe any of what this article says to be true, it somewhat substantiates the fact that MK was a response to SF2. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 02:07, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

I looked over Konohamaru's section at List of characters in Naruto and found that his section does discuss the particular character's design characteristics. To be on the safe side (the article is an FA) I asked about whether to include his image here: Talk:List_of_Naruto_characters#Konohamaru_Sarutobi_and_images WhisperToMe (talk) 06:49, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
A few points
I hope this clears up our misunderstanding. Chillum 16:57, 28 August 2009 (UTC) Sources for Saint SeiyaHello ! I've seen you're a regular contributor on the Saint Seiya article, and I have also read your request for sources about the origins of the story. I possess several japanese Saint Seiya artbooks/databooks, and I thought we could work together to make a really good article. The main difficulty is that I cannot read japanese, so we may have to team with a japanese-speaking user. However, the books can still be useful concerning broadcast or publication dates, staff, and the like (easier to understand).
I have also located several Japanese and non-Japanese interviews with Kurumada. Some are in japanese and were fan-translated on forums, some are original interviews published by western magazines (generally French, Italian and Portuguese). Among those, some are directly scanned, and some are only internet transcripts. The internet transcripts may not appear reliable but they all contain details about the original publication.

References should not invent namesYou reverted my edit here ([9]), and I just wanted to ask, does that mean seasons 1-9 have to be fixed as well now, as they all cite as "List of Bleach titles ###-###" as well? --Lightlowemon (talk) 13:08, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
GantzHow did you "transform" the references? I thought that "ref" button could only allow you to add a URL? NarSakSasLee (talk) 12:24, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
I know this is an odd thing to askThere's a fellow working on an article for Zero from the Mega Man series, and one of the biggest hurdles it has is getting enough reception to satisfy notability. You've pretty much proven to be a wiz when it comes to this sort of problem though, and since I've only managed to find two articles on a quick search and juggling a ton on my own already I figured I'd ask if you could look into it.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:56, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the help of the Zero article (I was the guy who was working on it). Damn good job with that, you're a serious pro at fixing notability. -(Wikipedian1234 (talk) 21:29, 16 September 2009 (UTC)) Rurouni Kenshin book coversAre we now using English book covers instead of Japanese ones (Naruto is using its English book cover, for instance)? If so, shouldn't that mean we should use the VIZ book cover for Rurouni Kenshin? WhisperToMe (talk) 13:59, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
Re: RedYeah it's an odd situation, and doesn't help that Gary Oak and Blue are treated as the same in that Wikipedia article because, pretty much, they are (though the incarnations of the character have taken very different turns). Really even the manga Red's different in many ways than his game counterpart, to the point they might as well be regarded separate entities in the same way Ash is to Red. I do know something's really got to be done there one way or another, and it would help a lot to have some confirmation one way or another from Nintendo.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 23:35, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Can you explain what the problems GAS mentioned. The archive doesn't say.陣内Jinnai 20:30, 22 September 2009 (UTC) Sony Samurai X now being uploadedCrackle legally posted the Sony Samurai X episodes up http://crackle.com/c/Samurai_X - So sourcing for character names is no longer a problem! WhisperToMe (talk) 21:27, 23 September 2009 (UTC) Hello Tintor2. Do you know anything about the series Death Note? I need help on List of Death Note Episodes. I've trimmed down 24 episodes and I want it to look like the FA-lists ones. NarSakSasLee (talk) 19:00, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
What up buddy? Just a question about Shishio: he was shot multiple times in the manga too right? I know it happened in the anime, so I was wondering if it should be referenced. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 13:33, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
RfD discussion on Sota HigurashiIn researching the Wikipedia history of Sota Higurashi for the current RfD discussion regarding Sota Higurashi, I noticed that you have previously commented on his notability. It would be very helpful to get have your thoughts added to the RfD discussion, which currently appears to be heading toward delete. Many thanks. —Zach425 talk/contribs 08:02, 2 October 2009 (UTC) Bleach episodesHave you seen this? I just looked on amazon japan, and indeed, the "past" episodes are being released under a separate name, whereas currently they are listed with the other episodes. Until now, we've followed the japanese dvd releases, because of they way they split into seasons, but the "past" eps are only six episodes, and are being released as a separate season/arc. This of course directly affects the FLC for Season 10. I've not started a discussion elsewhere as you seem to be the main editor behind getting the lists organised now that Sephiroth BCR is AWOL.
