[edit] Removal of a line

I'm considering removing this line because it's both logically inconsistent and a bit at odds with the sentence that mentions his Sumerian origins:

  • Zasalamel's place of birth is not really known, but since most of his techniques are named after Babylonian gods, it's safe to assume he comes from the Babylonian period.

I would suggest another solution: Take out the Sumerian part of his profile (there's no official confirmation of his origin, that's a speculation) and add that he could be of either Sumerian or Babylonian origins. What do you think? (Johnny Master 06:16, 17 April 2006 (UTC)).

Well, the Sumerian part is still in the bio... and someone has added it into the his profile stats, as his original birthplace. Like mentioned above, Namco did not state the birthplace of his original incarnation (or any of his other lives). As far as anything goes, Zasalamel's origins are unconfirmed, as is Tira's (who also has some speculation around her origins). If anything, Zasalamel's speculated origins should go into his "trivia" section (like Tira's speculated origins. Before someone edited all the character articles of SC, it did have rumors that she's Scandenavian or German, but it was in the "trivia" section).

[edit] Character analysis

I recently did the Character Analysis for Zasalamel, drawing heavily on what was said in the Zasalamel Soul Arena forum as well as on my own experiences. As usual, these things are subjective, I appreciate any corrections to take the general consensus more into account, but I believe I've done a decent job at starting it. -- Solberg 22:51, 19 December 2005 (UTC)Solberg

I agree. It sounds as professional as the rest of the other SC articles. One qualm, however, "whoring" is not meant for encyclopediac articles... Save that language for the forums, my friend. :) -MegamanZero|Talk 23:25, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Haha, that's what I thought too. Ok, I'll edit that out. -- Solberg 23:26, 19 December 2005 (UTC)Solberg

[edit] Input/No-input?

This article describes an Input Ending and a No-Input Ending. What does that mean? What sort of input are we talking about? From the outside perspective of someone who has never played Soul Caliber III, it is totally meaningless and it should be explained somewhere in the article. -- Lilwik 07:54, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
