[edit] Fixing up

I'm currently rewatching the series and making some notes to help clean up this page and add in some much needed references. I'm also watching for group images to add to the article. I'm thinking a group image of the pack and Cheza, one with them in their illusion modes and one in their true forms, if possible a group image with Cher & Hubb, Blue and Quent, and maybe Darcia with Jagara. How does that sound? Collectonian (talk) 10:32, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

I think it would be a little messy with group pictures. I think they should have their individual images of their human form and wolf form. I have a million of them individually. How does that sound? Better and more clear. Personally, I hate group pictures because I can never know which character is, which. If I was studying anime and I wanted to look up Wolf's Rain I would look at the group images in question. Is that kid with light brown hair Kiba? Would be my question. Group pictures are confusing.71.142.214.138 (talk) 06:16, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven

No, individual pictures would violate Wikipedia's policies regarding non-free image use. As such, this list will only contain a few group images to comply with those policies. The only question is which groups. Properly captioned, there is nothing confusing about a group image. Collectonian (talk) 06:20, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

When you have poor eyesight please tell me when a group image isn't confusing. Thank you. I will be able to get a group image of the main characters and Cheza since I have some of those pictures. I will put them in if you want. Also I don't agree with that policy.-.- But thats all right group images it is. I would be willing to help anyway. (Sorry if I sound like a jerk at the moment. Haven't had my coffee in the morning.)71.142.214.138 (talk) 16:36, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven Ps: This means that I'm generally all right with helping.

Without my glasses, I'm legally blind, so I can say properly choosen group images are not confusing. Individual images would be very quickly removed due to Wikipedia's strict requirements on fair use, hence a greater emphasis on using group images. Group images lets us show multiple characters in one image, there by complying with policy. If you look at List of Blood+ characters, I hope you would agree that none of the group images are confusing at all, while allowing all of the major characters to be illustrated. A group image of the main characters would be great, so long as it can be properly sourced (fan created wallpapers and images, for example, can not be used, gorgeous though they may be :) ).Collectonian (talk) 17:57, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Will a screen shot do of the main characters? I have a lot of them. Always have been attracted to the art and style of Wolf's Rain.71.142.214.138 (talk) 19:50, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven

Yep, a screenshot would be great. I haven't had time to grab one off my DVDs. Just make sure to note which episode it is from when you upload it :) Collectonian (talk) 22:35, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

All right. I have to remember the episode that shows Cheza sitting on a tree with them all sleeping. Once I do that I will have the image. I was going to give a temporary image, but I thought not to. It isn't a very good screen shot.71.142.214.138 (talk) 03:53, 16 February 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven

[edit] Human forms

Allow me to ask something, according to the Wolf's Rain page at the end of the series the Wolves are shown in their human form however in this page it states that the wolves are reincarnated as humans. Which one is correct? Are they still wolves or are they now human, I don't think the distinction was made (I think they're wolves still but I can be wrong) so should we correct the "human reincarnation" statements on this page?

It isopen for interpretation. They are simply shown in their human forms. Whether they are still wolves or they are now human is for the viewer to decide. So yes, this list needs cleaning to remove the reincarnation statements. Collectonian (talk) 19:58, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
