[edit] On the disputed merge proposal
Please see Wikipedia:Merging#B. -- Antaeus Feldspar 23:10, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
I've done a bit of a rewrite here to focus the article a bit more on the 5-person Gatchaman team than on the original 1972 series itself. There have been a lot of different series and adaptations, but the basic 5-member team remains the defining characteristic. Also, since this is an English-language article, I added a couple of helpful references to help the uninitiated fans of English adaptations know that they've arrived at a relevant article even if some of the unfamiliar names confuse them.

[edit] Title
Whatever you decide, the title is wrong. It is an English language wikipedia, so the title shouild be in English. We translate the names of organizations, political parties, etc. Ninja no better. mikka (t) 00:28, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
This page should be moved. --Banana04131 04:44, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Engrish???
"Their vehicles are docked in the team's main vehicle, the God Phoenix, a supersonic plane capable of underwater minor spaceflight as necessary." Heptapod 01:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
-- Missing to mention Comic Book by Image ---
[edit] Heights
Oh man, am I just too picky to note that Ken and Joe aren't the same height, as someone wrote in the trivia? I was thinking that Wendy Dinsmore was the one who did the original translation of heights from a book, but it's not on her site (that I found). Miyae has some things on her site about that kind of thing, but so much of the Miyae mythology has crept into her Gatch stuff that I'm a little wary about citing from there. Anybody know where that info might be? Katsesama 03:45, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 7 Zark 7 omission
I realise that this article is essentially about Gatchaman but it does mention the differences between the original series are it's derivatives. Despite this there is no mention of the Robot 7 Zark 7, I think that something about him needs to be added in, by someone with a bit more knowledge than me ;)

[edit] Tables in Adaptations section
I have fixed the tables in the adaptation section as best as I can make out they were supposed to be. There were markup errors in the tables causing them to render incorrectly (in fx anyway).
The first table in section is rather large. I believe that some of the data could be taken out and moved to their own section describing the vehicles, possibly poaching some of the text from other sections (ie the bit about the Pheonix)
IMHO these columns should be moved.
- Rank
- Bird Uniform
- Weapon
- Mecha
This change would have been a major one so I didn't want to do it without discussion first. After all I do still have my L plates on.. --Ensign R 13:11, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
Then again I was thinking maybe the tables could look like this? (maybe with some colour???) : --Ensign R 15:05, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for a "Episode title" variations table
Hello there, I just finished completely overhauling what previously was a stub of a page for G-Force: Guardians of Space and (if you guys didn't mind) utilized your variation tables on my article. Considering I'm still a wiki noob, would anyone be willing or help me whip up a table for Episode List comparisons between Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets/G-Force??? The list is already available: [1]. This would make it much easier for people who are looking to pinpoint a specific episode or would like to see the differences in naming inbetween the three. The table can be utilized on all 3 Gatchaman/BotP/G-Force articles. How about it???
Also, might I add a suggestion to expand the "Other notable changes" table to include variations of all the attack names (i.e Tornado Fighter/Whirlwind Pyramid, Firebird mode/Firey Pheonix) between the various versions??? I'll search for a list of all of those. Thanks!!! Die 7-Zark-7 Die!!! 12:45, 2 April 2007 (UTC)Kage-Maru87
