[edit] Temari and Shikamaru

It seems like most of the edits on Temari's page have to do with a potential romantic relationship with Shikamaru Nara. Should a line be added or are the shippers and canon people just going to keep going in a big edit circle? I don't care either way, but it seems like the page changes every day. Maybe a compromise to make all sides happy? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lipper (talk • contribs) 01:35, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

The relationship has no canon status, and hardly any solid evidence to support it. The shippers of the pair are simply stubborn, and seem to be hell-bent on shoving it down other fans' throats, which always ends up offending the countless others who still believe Shikamaru will either end up with Yamanaka Ino, or remain single for the entire run of the series. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 21:34, 16 June 2006 (talk • contribs) 70.186.70.138.

How did this pairing spawn anyway? The Wretched 09:21, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I added this to the Trivia section...:

There is a surprisingly large and persistant amount of fans that support a Temari-Shikamaru relationship. The basis for these claims are very minor instances (Temari telling Shikamaru that she'd help him again anytime after the Sasuke Retrieval Arc, Naruto asking if they're on a date in Part II, ect.). However, there is currently no canonical pairing between the two, and these very minor instances are by no means plausible evidence of one happening in the future.

...with the hope that these Temari-Shikamaru fanatics will be satisfied. Is this good enough for Trivia Material? The Wretched 09:32, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Eh, it seems more anti-ShikaTem than anything else now. I think it's going too far in the other direction. IMO, we should just avoid any mention of ships in the article.Veil of Shadows 15:13, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree that is sounds more anti-Shikamaru/Temari than anything. I also disagree that the pairing is based on just those two instances. There is more to it. They do have some canon behind them and might be one of the few boy/girl relationships allowed to blossom in this shōnen manga. But until Kishimoto makes them acknowledge a relationship, it's all just speculation. It looks like your edit was removed anyway. -- Dasherman 05:00, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, but I wasn't gonna put all the reasons in there. Too long. Note the 'ect.' And I'm not necessarily saying that a pairing is impossible. I mean, I've seen a very slight, but hinting incedent in Part II, when Naruto first meets up with them. Temari kinda trails off when denying a date. However, I meant to say that these hints aren't really very much hard proof of any connection yet. But you know... Masashi doesn't usually add something unless there's some meaning behind it. Unless it's for comedy purposes... I'm contradicting myself, aren't I? The Wretched 18:44, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey. on several random websites (spoiler) Ther was 1 piture of them about to mkiss and Ino was using it as balck mail. also on the character bio of his Of shinos mom it says she trying to get her sun to date Temari. I couldn't care thought i just like to argue —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.129.87.239 (talk • contribs) 01:03, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

I am going to try to translate this.

"On several random websites, there was a picture of Shikamaru and Temari about to kiss and Ino was using it as blackmail. Also on a character bio of Shikamaru's, his mom is stated as trying to get her son to date Temari."

That picture was probably made by a fangirl. Sort of like the one with Kakashi unmasked. Second, Shika's mom hasn't even met Temari in canon. So how on earth do we know she is trying to hook them up? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.80.145.64 (talk • contribs) 02:24, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

You finished the series? Hum Th epiture was definetly not a funsub thought. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.129.87.239 (talk • contribs) 06:58, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I haven't seen this pic so I don't know. Maybe it was from some promotional material? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.80.145.64 (talk • contribs) 17:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Nani? All this talk about Temari and Shikamaru, i dont think (hope) that they'll end up together. I hope Ino is the woman for Shikamaru (; You know, from Fruits Basket, everyone (well well, not everyone) thought that Tohru and Yuki would end up as a couple, but they didn't. I hope that it is Temari (Yuki) Shikamaru (Tohru) and Ino (Kyou) XD / (: Go Ino

While it should be noted that Temari and Shikamaru have been seen together in Part II, and she has helped him in battle, I think dubbing a romantic relationship between them (though it is slightly indicated) would turn this more into a fanon article rather than a general information article. I think it is fine the way it is. LOLZ SHIPPERZ.

We could just say "Fan's have said that Temari and Shikamaru have a crush on each other" or something like that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.36.182.232 (talk) 21:12, 23 December 2006 (UTC).

But if you put something about them liking eachother in there, then some of the ShikaIno fans would prabably just throw a fit and start whining. Don't get me wrong, I love the ShikaIno pairing and I understand where people are getting the ShikaTema pairing, but this kind of stuff dosen't belong on wikipedia anyways.

I wouldn't say this temari and shikamaru are irrelevant. In fact, on youtube you can find many fan videos of them. As in many I mean 1,332 videos though this is just a asumtion by fans that they like each other. But Shikamaru often is fighting, being saved by or saving Temari himself. But please don't put this in a real article cause its well... not wikipedia worthy (just a fan hunch) Blackcat1313 00:09, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I think we should stop altogther arguing about this forumish stuff. The article should remain as factual as in any encyclopedia and coming up with pairings is not something for Wikipedia. I mean,rabid supporters of any pairing have forums where they can fight about this. So the article is quite good enough the way it is, let's just keep it this way until we have any futher info.

[edit] Image

May someone please help fix that image of Temari cuz I cannot Arhugefan 01:06, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

I replaced it. It's better to use a version where you can see the character's eyes. It keeps us from having to explain eye color. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 01:10, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ships Ahoy

Contrary to what some may want to believe, this image is decorative, a no no according to policy. To put it simply, Temari standing next to Shikamaru is not helpful in any way, shape, or form, and as such has no reason to be in the article. If somebody disagrees with this notion, particularly User: Dasherman, I'd like to hear why, as I can't imagine there being a good reason other than "it's been in the article for a long time". If somebody feels that there absolutely needs to be an image in the Sasuke Retrieval arc section, an image of Temari summoning Kamatari or the destruction of the surrounding forest would be much better in place of the current image, as one of the two would actually be useful to a degree. ~SnapperTo 20:10, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

As much as I adore Shikamaru x Temari, you do have a point. I'll try and get another picture. Of Temari killing the forest or something. Raven23 23:24, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

There's already an image of Temari summoning Kamatari on the Kamatari entry. So using a picture of that would be redundant. Her whole purpose in that arc was to save Shikamaru and the picture reflects this. It has nothing to do with a fandom relationship. I am all for removing "shipping" from pages, but this is the other extreme. I am curious what brought this about. The picture has been there for a long time without complaints. You have edited that page numerous times and never bothered with that pic before.

I believe it might be best to ask Someguy0830 his opinion. If there was any problem with this pic, him or Geg would have probably removed it a long time ago.Dasherman 02:57, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Simply because I don't care doesn't mean I don't agree. Kamatari summoning is a much more useful pic. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 03:09, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I typically pay more attention to what's added to an article than I do to what's already in it, especially when it comes to characters that aren't overly central to the plot. So, someone added an image to the article, I scrolled down to see what it was, and found it as well as the image in question to be unhelpful, and hence removed both. That's all there is to it. ~SnapperTo 03:35, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Well about the picture of her in part II, I see someone changed it to colour. Should we keep it like that? Any objections?Blackcat1313 18:41, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adding the episode/chapter of pt II.

On the character profile it shows what chapter and episode of Naruto pt1 when she shows up. Should we add the chapter/episode for pt II under it? XaXfoolsXgameXFeb. 21, 2007

No. First appearance only. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 06:30, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
