Netto

Yeah, that sounds okay. -Sukecchi 14:45, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Who are you?

You seem to be quite knowlagable of our loveable EXE Universe...might I ask who you are? Like...are you from any communities or anything?Sukecchi 21:17, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Not in any communities. Just a fan that follows the details of the series to the bare bone. Have watched most episodes, with about 2 years experience in Japanese (though I'm not fluent, it's enough that I can understand what people are saying, and translate to a certain extent). - Benten

MegaMan NT Warrior

I noticed that you changed Net Hikari to Netto Hikari and Mail Sakurai to Meiru Sakurai. This is not correct.

See: http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/rockmanexe_axess/character/chara01.html and http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/rockmanexe_axess/character/chara03.html.

WhisperToMe 20:46, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Not you again...Look, Netto is just as correct as Net, leave it alone. >_>Sukecchi 21:13, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
don't CARE anymore, just mention the AXESS character pages and the "Net" and "Mail" Romanizations at the very least.—ウルタプ 21:07, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Very well. I will.

Net Hikari's name

":::::Edit: http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/rockman_beast/; On the character pg, again Netto's name is written in Hiragana. - Benten"

That's furigana. It's meant to show how the name is pronounced. That's a given for all names in Kanji (including Light Yagami of Death Note, since his name is written in kanji) WhisperToMe 04:26, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

"Netto" is technically "Engrish" while "Net" (And I'm meaning the guy's name) is English. If the intended name is Net, the only way the Japanese can write his name is "Ne-tto".

"In the Japanese version, Netto's name is a pun on the word "net." Official sources [1] have sometimes referred to him as "Net," though the pun is more evident due to the phonetics of his name when written in Kanji and Hiragana, as well as nuances in pronunciation by the seiyū involved."

I'm changing this to "Official Japanese sources state his name in roman characters as "Net Hikari"" - remember that "Net" and "Netto", whichever one is the intended name, would be pronounced the same. WhisperToMe 04:28, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

"(cur) (last) 13:11, 29 June 2006 Benten (Talk | contribs | block) m (Give it a rest already. Everybody but u has already agreed to this resolution.)"

1. Do not use "u" in place of "you" on Wikipedia.

2. "Urutapu" now sides with me.

If you cannot come up with another convincing argument, this has been settled. WhisperToMe 22:04, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I will be gone for one week after next Saturday. When I return, I want to know if you really care about this anymore. If not, I'll be happy to revert. If so, the debate shall continue. WhisperToMe 05:54, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

We've all agreed to use Netto but ACKNOWLEDGE Net in the trivia section .Sukecchi 12:10, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX minor characters

Hi there! I apologise in advance for being the bearer of bad news. I've nominated an article you have created for deletion, specifically the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX minor characters. I wanted to let you know, so you can weigh in on the discussion here and also so you can save this list to your computer in case it does get deleted, as I can tell you've put some considerable effort into compiling this list. hoopydinkConas tá tú? 18:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

 !!! A MMBN fan!

I just noticed that you're another MegaMan NT/BN fan. Can you help me out with MegaMan Battle Network 5? In particular, I'm looking for print references on its critical reception or any references on its creation, and I'm coming up with almost nothing. I could really use some help. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 08:51, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I would love to help, but I don't believe I know of any print reference for its critical reception (since I only play the Japanese games), and anything that I do have regarding its creation is just drawings/schematics of the characters, places, etc. from several guidebooks that I own (which I assume is not what your looking for anyways). If you do need to find these images, however, the official Japanese sites for most of the games do have some of them on display. --Benten 23:17, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

I don't suppose you can scrounge up Japanese reviews of it, at least? I know it got lukewarm reviews in English, but the series is usually better-recieved in Japan.

By the way, regarding MMBN/NT images, the sources you gave don't suffice. For source, we need both original publishing and where it was posted online. www.exehq.com isn't any better for www.atomic-fire.com for all of the character art; they obviously didn't originally publish these images, so we need to know who did and where. Likewise for the screencaps; it's all well and good that they can be found on this site or that site, but we need to know what episodes they're from.

Additionally, a number of these images do need to go. The galleries in Cross Fusion and Soul Unison and such need to be reduced to a representative example, with the rest of the described fusions described in prose. This is per WP:FUC; we need to keep use of fair-use images to a minimum. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 00:35, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Oh, okay I see then how there should be a minimum. Although I can't provide a good enough source on the net, the official art for most of the other images come from Japanese guidebooks, though that may mean next to nothing in this case. --Benten 03:46, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Hrm. If you could peg it to a specific book, it wouldn't need to be a wikilink. Otherwise, I don't think we can use them. :/

Oh! That reminds me. The screenshots can be saved; they just need episode numbers or names rather than just the series. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 04:10, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • As far as I can remember, the images correspond to the book of the game in which the character in question first appears (the pic of Regal would be in the BN4 guide for example). The img of the main characters in the List of MegaMan Battle Network characters can be found in multiple books, Secret of Rockman EXE - Official Illustrated Guide (ロックマンエグゼのひみつ―オフィシャル設定イラストガイド) being the most recent release (I know this because I own a copy, and it is particularly good for documenting the various advertisements throughout the series, though I do not know exactly how I should reference it. Should I just leave the name of the book on the img's pg in this case?). For the screencaps, since most of them are going to end up being deleted anyways and won't have a purpose on those pgs anymore, I don't see a pt. in fitting each with an ep #. There are a few, however, that I'll add to, like the one of R-Laserman and Slur, since they have their own importances on their respective articles. --Benten 04:25, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

I saw the ones you sourced, and those are great. That's exactly what we need. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 04:48, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I can't believe I forgot about this, but upon flipping through the book again, every official pic from each game is in the index of the guide. So I'll just source it in all the applicable imgs; I may not get them all though, as there are probably some obscure pgs I don't know about aside from the ones I frequent. If there's any I miss, feel free to add it in yourself. --Benten 05:09, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Got some questions for you, re MMBN.

  • Which chip in MMBN5 is a reference to Duel Masters, and what was the name of the DM movie that ran as double-billing with Program of Light and Darkness? Can you find a source to confirm this?
  • Can you find a source to confirm that Hideo Kojima's son is a big MMBN fan and that's where the MMBN/Boktai crossovers come from? - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:01, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Well I can answer your first question, but I have no idea about the second. The chips are "Phoenix" and "Death Phoenix" (as listed by my trusty guidebook, although that info is already known). I'll have to check on the name of the DM movie. When I find it I'll tell you. --Benten 14:46, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Can you give me a source to cite that says that this is a reference? - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 14:48, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
  • What, the book's name? Secret of Rockman EXE - Official Illustrated Guide.

Oh, the same guide? Okay. It does say that the chips are based on DM and it's because of the dual billing (rather than just one or the other). I need to know the author, publication month/year, ISBN number, and publisher, then, so I can cite it. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 14:59, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • It doesn't say the chips are based on DM because of the dual billing. I meant that it was the source for the names of the chips themselves. It is known that the two are based on DM because the Phoenix/Death Phoenix monsters originate from DM, and that around the same time, the series reciprocated by creating a card in their card game based on Bass (or Forte). I don't think I would be able to find a source for you on this point, however. I do not believe any of the guides specifically listed this info; it was really a matter of whether or not one could see the connection. (Little update: Ideal808 has images of the cards of the creatures on which the two chips were based: [1] and [2] --Benten 15:04, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh. I need a source that says they're from Duel Masters. Phooey. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 15:09, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I re-checked by book; the spelling should be "Deathphoenix" in one word. The English version spells it as "DeathPhoenix". I'm currently looking for a source for the connection to DM. --Benten 15:14, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

That they're from Duel Masters would be decent, that it's because of the dual billing (Duel billing? Oh, I kill myself) would be even better. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 15:16, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Yeah, I'm aware of that. Right now I'm trying to find the name for the movie, cause from what I heard at the time, it had something to do with Deathphoenix specifically. --Benten 15:19, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Found the title. It's "Duel Masters - Curse of the Deathphoenix". The following site has an image of the poster: [3], and the furigana over "Yami no Shiro no Maryuuou" does indeed read "Curse of the Deathphoenix" in katakana. Now that I think about it, it should have been for the dual feature that the chips were created in the game. Deathphoenix being the focus in the movie, it was made into a chip. Bass being of focus in the EXE movie, he was made into a card. --Benten 15:25, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Okay. Actually, that's a nice bit of symmetry, with both the Boktai and Duel Masters crossovers. But we still need a source. :/ - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 15:32, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I don't think we're going to find any sources more concise than what has been found so far. It was really a fanbase acknowledgement of the connection. But since that probably won't cut it for citation, there's nothing really that can be done. --Benten 15:38, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

There has to be something. I know that there were promotional cards for both films: e-Reader cards for MMBN5, and cards for Duel Masters. Is there a chance that the cross-promotion was mentioned at the same time as press released/news stories on the promotional cards at the movies? - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 15:40, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • To my knowledge, no there wasn't. At the time that promotions/stories/commercials (etc.) were running for the movies, nothing on the cards was ever mentioned. The trailers didn't even draw attention to the matter. They would just run some clips, then end. --Benten 15:44, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

No press release? No mention in fan press? (I dunno if there's a Japanese equivalent to Scrye, or if it was mentioned in the video game fan press.) - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 15:50, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • If there was, it was probably said in one of the Jump issues (V-Jump, Weekly Jump, CoroCoro etc.) Unfortunately, I do not remember purchasing any of them at the time when the movies were being announced, so I'll never be able to know for sure. --Benten 15:52, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Hmm. I don't suppose you could ask around with the Yu-Gi-Oh editors or anyone who might read those? It should be possible to source this. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 16:03, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • The response I'd get (from the EXE editors anyways) would probably be another "I heard that from ______" (most likely rockman-exe.com, since it was there that I recall seeing the Bass card, and such). I'll keep trying to look for a source. --Benten 16:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Translation discussions on Yu-Gi-Oh! GX-related pages with WhisperToMe for the future

""Maruchi" (or whatever the spelling was you changed it to); Martin's first name is already rendered in katakana, and the "-chi""

By the way, when chi is extended, it is conventionally written as "tchi" (See Hepburn romanization) - I understand Marty is a foreign name. If we are going to show the raw pronunciation, though, and the chi is extended, we use "tchi" WhisperToMe 03:41, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Ah, I see. I'll fix the rōmaji for the name then. Thanks for pointing that out. --Benten 03:54, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Expanding the Ryusei episode list?

Well, Ryusei episodes are building up, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in giving the episodes a separate Wikipedia page. I'd gladly write up summaries. Lemme know what you think. Crimsonseiko 15:05, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Everything on Wikipedia is always going to be subject to vandalism in some form or another, and vandalism isn't very difficult to repair. It just seems like a great way to expand information on the series. But I guess not. Oh well. Just an idea... Crimsonseiko 16:19, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • No one seems to know why that thread vanished from REO's forums. I wouldn't think it has anything to do with the authenticity of Viz picking up Ryusei, though, since the thread simply linked to a site that had the confirmation. I'd say NATPE is a reliable-enough source, but maybe reword that line on the Ryusei page to make it sound a little less definite (for now). Crimsonseiko 16:36, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Oh, I figured out why that thread vanished. Apparently, a banned user had signed up from a different IP specifically to post that article, and when the admins saw that he was a banned user, they re-banned him... but, for some reason, deleted his topic too. Which is silly in the long-run since the report originally came from REO's forums, was picked up there on all of the big-name news sites (Atomic-Fire, the UnderSquare)... and then Ryouko of REO "found" the article on those sites and reported it on her site, even though it originated from her own forums. x_X;; -Crimsonseiko 18:00, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

GX Images

I asked Drake Clawfang about this, and he agreed somewhat:

Could you perhaps start orphaning images that Bobabobabo uploaded and that are being used in the individual episode pages for Yu-Gi-Oh! GX?—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 05:33, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Just wanted to say...

... that I really like what you've done with the Ryusei anime page. Very extensive and well-written. Good job. -Crimsonseiko 15:06, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Cancer Bubble

Ah...I thought since you know...their were images of large men before the conversion that he was aiming for the security guard. My mistake. :P -Sukecchi 16:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

NT Warrior episodes.

Here's what I'm thinking...

The MegaMan NT Warrior media and release information has gotten pretty hefty. Don't you think we should make a new page... List of MegaMan NT Warrior episodes... specifically for the episode lists?

Also, I'm thinking we could also expand on that in the same fashion that the Pokémon pages does by providing short two-three sentence summaries for the episodes, separated by series, as done here. I'd be willing to do the work, and I don't see any reason it'd be deemed "superfluous." If an anime with so many episodes as Pokémon can do it, I don't see why MegaMan can't, and I feel it'd be beneficial information.

Tell me what you think.

-Crimsonseiko 14:55, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I was thinking about the size issue as well. Usually it is the DVD sections that get seperate pages. I will split it off and put a link in the article. As for the short sentence summaries, I think that'd be fine, as long as they concern plot, rather than the battles that take place in each episode. (The names should be the English-language version's as well; no need to mention the original names here, as the page would just get bigger). --Benten 15:02, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I wonder if there's a way we could combine the DVD and episode pages together... I remember seeing something like this on the Fullmetal Alchemist pages (though it seems they've since reverted it... probably meaning it's not a good idea after all). But basically, they did the short episode summaries like I suggested, except they had the episodes grouped together by the DVDs with an image of the DVD on the side of the table containing the summaries. (If that doesn't make much sense, I can try to elaborate.) I think that'd be a good way to keep the DVDs and episodes unified... On another note, I'm not sure what you mean by The names should be the English-language version's as well; no need to mention the original names here, as the page would just get bigger. Elaborate please? -Crimsonseiko 15:13, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Well, for the DVDs, I was going by model lists for media and release information like those of South Park or The Simpsons; it's much more space-preserving. The DVD lists are either very compressed on the main episode article (and still have a seperate page), or completely separate. I do understand what you mean for the grouping of the DVDs with the corresponding episodes, but it's probably best to keep it in the aforementioned fashion. For The names should be the English-language version's, I meant that, when the summaries are written, they should employ the English version's name changes (ie. using "Lan Hikari" as opposed to "Hikari Netto," but with no mention of the original names at all). --Benten 15:20, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • OK, that's fine. Question, though... when writing summaries for Stream and on, what names should be used for the new characters, like Nenji? Their English game names? (On a similar note, I suppose that means that characters like Asteroid Plantman and Asteroid Napalmman should be changed to Asteroid VineMan and Asteroid MoltanicMan?) -Crimsonseiko 15:24, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I would go with the English game names to be consistent with the MegaMan NT Warrior article. And yeah, the Asteroids, Zoanoroids, and Phantom Navis will have to follow the English anime's changes in that respect I suppose. --Benten 15:27, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Edit: Oh, there's one more thing I forgot. Do you happen to know the length (in minutes) of Sound Navigation 01, as well as the individual track lengths? It would be a good thing to add to the media and release article under the soundtrack section, sort of like how the tracks are listed for the soundtrack on the X-Men: The Last Stand page. --Benten 15:32, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I got my iPod handy right now, actually, so I'll go ahead and add the track lengths before I start on the episode pages. -Crimsonseiko 15:42, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Another thought... should the movie be given its own summary page? -Crimsonseiko 16:01, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I don't think so. I think the release information (release date, DVD release date, etc.) is sufficient. Summaries for the episodes should be enough. --Benten 16:03, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Let me know how it looks before I go any further. -Crimsonseiko 16:44, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Looks fine. --Benten 16:46, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I'll get back to work on this later; gotta take my lunch break. However, I wanted to ask another question while I'm away. I know all of the EXE series's art directors, but I'm awful with Wiki-code. Do you know how to edit the code so we can place the art director's name in for the episode summaries list? Thanks! -Crimsonseiko 17:00, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The tables work from templates. The standard Japanese/English template for anime doesn't include art directors, so trying to add them would not work out. I had thought about this in regards to the Ryusei episode list (after it gets its English version), and I figured that we could just add up the number of episodes each director does on the whole and list it in the production section on the Ryusei page. Anyways, altering tables beyond the points already in the template isn't wise given this situation. --Benten 17:05, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Instead of just adding up how many episodes each director does, why don't we list the episodes they did? Like, for Ryusei, say... "Adachi Shingo (episodes 11, 18, 23)." That way, readers can compare episodes' art styles together. On another note, where should we put this information for EXE? This series has a LOT more art directors than Ryusei. Would it go best in the individual summary pages for each series? -Crimsonseiko 18:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The EXE summaries are done. I'll have to tackle Axess-Beast+ another day. Add/omit/revise anything you need to. On another note, how do you feel about a screenshot for each episode? Like this: List of Fullmetal Alchemist episodes... -Crimsonseiko 20:08, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Hmm...For the Ryusei directors, I still think that a total # would be better than individual episodes (as it would become very much like a list by the time things are tallied up). I would just forget about the art directors for EXE (listing the individual episodes which they directed); it is a somewhat messy affair and may even be a little crufty. And for screenshots for each episodes, I would opt against it since screenshots for episode guides usually require lots of work on the fair use rationale of each image for the article to be considered above start rating. --Benten 01:07, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Edit: Oh, forgot to mention: the summaries for Beast and Beast+ can (probably should) be in a combined article, probably titled List of MegaMan NT Warrior episodes (Beast and Beast+). --Benten 01:47, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

EXE Movie

The movie needs some kind of plot summary, but I'm having trouble deciding where to place it. There's not quite enough content in the movie for its own article (if we did that, it'd just be a big plot summary and useless trivia like Shun's background cameo)... What Sukecchi and I were considering is placing it on Stream's summary page. I think that's the best place for it, but what do you think? -Crimsonseiko 13:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Yeah. That's probably the most logical place to put it. --Benten 14:13, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Hassleberry/David Wills dispute

Benten, What follows is the letter I sent to both Makimi and Ryulong:

Makemi, Thanks for getting back to me (and unblocking me). I'm relatively new to contributing to Wikipedia and the procedures around here are baffling to say the least. To answer your question...YES... this IS Davd Wills the voice actor. My ID and e-mail address is "ghostysshow" because, aside from my voice acting career, I also host a show on Sirius Satellite Radio on channel#32 Sirius Disorder and a Saturday night show on WFDU fm out of Teaneck, NJ under the on-air name of "Ghosty"...hence "Ghosty's Show"...get it? Here's what happened over the weekend. While trapped at the radio station as a result of the snowstorm, I began browsing around online. While I was aware of various forums and websites related to another TV show I work on, Viva Pinata, I decided to see if there was anything about Yu-Gi-Oh GX. Well, yes indeed there was, but on all of the aforementioned sites and forums I was not credited with playing Hassleberry. Now I'm not really one for self-promotion (especially true when GX is heading into season 3 and I've never bothered to look and see what's out there). Research into how and why this incorrect information has spread all over the internet led me to Wikipedia. I logged in and made the correct changes where applicable. Of course, my corrections were undone and the false information has once again reappeared. While not getting credit for the role of Hassleberry on Wikipedia will probably not be injurious to my career in the long run, I do take a certain amount of pride in my work and at the very least would appreciate having the correct information listed on both the Hassleberry and Yu-Gi-Oh GX pages. As a disc jockey, I've often used Wikipedia for show prep purposes but now after having been the subject of bad information, I'll refrain from taking Wikpedia's word as "gospel" (something I'm sure the other sites, forums and fan pages made the mistake of doing too).

I don't know what else you need from me (and is this OTRS?) but I hope I've made it clear who I am (although I'd hardly call myself "notable". LOL

If you have any questions feel free to contact me either via e-mail or phone which I can also give you.

New Ryusei titles.

Thru episode 29. From what I can gather... 27 is "Cygnus Corps," 28 is "Radio Wave Crisis," and 29 is "Miracle of Satellite." I'm pretty sure on those translations, but I'm not able to supply the Romaji, so I'll let you just do it all. -Crimsonseiko 02:16, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

reasoning?

Benten, i have noticed your activity on some of the Yu-Gi-Oh! set articles. On the Power of the Duelist, Cyberdark Impact, Strike of Neos, and Force of the Breaker articles, I have noticed you have trimmed up the format that the set articles currently have. I have reverted your edits to this, because there is no trace of a discussion to do this to the articles. Not all the set articles have five notable cards that would fit. I would be glad to discuss this matter on my talk page or yours. Red Director 20:38, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I changed the format because it's more encyclopedic to cover a selection of the set rather than just list every single card. With the newer format, the articles are also divided into sections that address the set's mechanics (etc.), as well as the release dates, chronology, and other details. For the notable cards, I think there are five notable cards that could fit per set (either because of them being used for publisizing the expansion, being the lead cards or demonstrations of new archetypes and mechanics, having an impact on professional play, etc.) I just haven't gotten around to every set as of yet to introduce the new format; up until now, I've only gone from Power of the Duelist to Tactical Evolution. --Benten 23:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Benten, there is no problem with what your doing. I have thought it over and your idea seems good other than the 5 notable cards. There could be more or less in some sets. We could make a project on the Yu-Gi-Oh! Wikiproject to change the format of all the articles. Message back if you think this could work. Red Director 20:00, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm currently considering a joint page based on Duel Spirits and Duel Energy for GX, dealing with the spirits and the energy. However, currently I have not enough data for such a page, and thus will not create one at the time. As you have access to the Japanese episodes, is there further data in the Japanese version on the two subjects that could be put towards an encyclopedic, notable article?

  • I don't think they need a seperate article. Duel Spirits and Duel Energy are both pretty self-explainatory, and the latter is covered pretty thoroughly already on the Martin Empire page (they are also addressed in numerous others). Creating a joint page would not be the best course; if needed, we could just expand on either of them on the existing pages. --Benten 02:07, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Fair enough. Thanks for your opinion. Drake Clawfang 02:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
