[edit] Grigsby

It seems like she's not quite as "zomg fetish outfits" as I remember her being - she quotes a personal letter to her comparing the outfits with the Onyanko Club, and makes a point of saying that the sailor outfit is a porno staple in Japan (that didn't originate with Sailor Moon). Can I get your thoughts on what's meant by this passage? "In addition, the sophistication of the "media mix" marketing method described by Yoshio Irie, the current editor of Nakayosi that started with editorial meetings nearly a year before publication to determine the basic story, a plan to coordinate the animation to come out after the second episode of the written story, and the marketing of toys has succeeded." She attributes this information to an article by Frederik L. Schodt in the Mainichi Daily News published on the 31st of September, 1994 'NAKAYOSHI'S' MEDIA-MIX TACKLES CUT-THROAT BUSINESS. (Which, of course, I can't find.) Is this meant to mean that Takeuchi and Nakayoshi met regularly in about 1991 to discuss the Dark Kingdom arc's storyline, and that the Sailor Moon anime first season came out after the Black Moon manga arc was done??? I don't get it. -Malkinann (talk) 10:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Ohh... the plural of meetings made me think it was regular, but I guess that could also mean just twice. So I guess now the question is, is this tidbit worth putting in an article? (the anime article?) -Malkinann (talk) 03:56, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sailor Moon Goodies

Hi Masamage! Belated Merry Non-Denomination-Holiday-of-Your-Choice and Happy New Year. ;) There are a couple of "Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon"-related things I'd like to discuss with you and Malkinann in private, so drop me a line using my instant messaging contact info sometime. See you in the chat windows! :) Lunar archivist 14:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] SailorGeneric Image

Hello Masamage! I'm Exephyo from it.wiki. Recently I started working on Sailor Moon serie (it was a mess!), and I wanted to ask you if I could use (and translate) the image you created (SailorGeneric.png) for our Sailor Senshi page. Nothing formal, I'm just checking! You can answer me back here.

Thank you for your time! Exephyo --85.18.136.105 (talk) 02:20, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yay. Replied at Exephyo's it.wiki talk page. --Masamage ♫ 01:21, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Trinity Copyright

That whole section has been rewritten so much that it doesn't match the original source -- at least not in wording. The theology is the same, but not the wording. The intro to that section needs to be reworded to suit. Although it was originally a copyright violation -- it isn't any longerTim (talk) 21:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. I'll rewrite the section. It will be Sunday before I can get to it, though. As for neutrality... I have an idea. It won't be a series of objections, but of defined positions. But that's for Sunday.Tim (talk) 03:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of Sailor Moon episodes

It seems that the user Taiketsu has been 3RRing episode list pages for their preferred spelling - I left them a note to say that they should check for consensus on talk pages and pointed them to our consensus on the episode titles, but they removed my comment without replying to it, and also removed one of their previous block notices. Is this permitted? [1] -Malkinann (talk) 22:49, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sailor Moon categories

I wanted to some thoughts expressed here regarding the genre categories. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:04, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

I did the updates, and noted something "peculiar": Sailor Moon (anime) and Sailor Moon (manga) are formatted differently from each other and are pretty much uncategorized (compare SM anime page format with the articles Dragon Ball anime and Hellsing TV series, then that SM manga page format with Dragon Ball and Hellsing manga). Which is in the wrong here? Seems Sailor Moon is categorized as the media franchise, anime and manga while the other Sailor Moons are not. Can I fix this or is there a reason? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 17:25, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Masamage, I don't agree to some of these edits. First, Japanese television series does appear to be a parent cat of Anime series, but I believe its purpose is to list all anime which broadcast on Japanese television (the category probably needs a description), while Anime series lists worldwide anime (ie, not only created in Japan but includes Chinese, Korean and others like American-made anime). Regarding the genre box, I intentionally formatted it that way and I explained so why on Talk:Sailor Moon. Understood? I will parially rv your edits now because there were only certain changes I disagreed with. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 17:48, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Let's see:
1) About the category, I agree with Masamage. Anime series is not only for tv series, but also for OVA series, specials, and any other animated Japanese format. Since Sailor Moon is an article about the whole franchise, which not only includes tv series, but also specials, movies, etc, this cat fits better than Japanese television series. And yeah, I also think it's redundant; IMO Japanese television series should be used on articles about Japanse live-action tv series.
2) About Sailor Moon (anime) and Sailor Moon (manga) - It seems these articles are formatted with the tv and comic infoboxes, instead of the anime/manga infobox. Well, this is not really an issue. We tend to use the anime/manga infobox for convenience and consistency, but this is not an obligation. I would leave this to the editors working there to decide.
3) Regarding the genre box - I took a look at the Rurouni Kenshin article and I can tell this format suits that page really well. However, this seems not to be the case with Sailor Moon. I think the reason is that in Kenshin historical fiction is a main genre, whereas in Sailor Moon romance is not that important. Thus the phrase "Magical Gils romance" sounds misleading to me. Just my two cents. Kazu-kun (talk) 19:35, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Someone should definitely place a description at Japanese television series and a bot's help should be requested. A lot of things revolving the Sailor Moon pages don't make sense either. Yes, the infoboxes should be changed because they're inconsistent with anime/manga box format. The anime categories should be placed in its respective anime page and the manga ones in theirs. "Adventure; Magical girl romance", could be changed, but to what? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 20:26, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
I think just "Adventure, Magical girl, Romance" would do just fine. This simple format is the one used in most articles after all. And by all means, do change the infobexes of Sailor Moon (anime) and Sailor Moon (manga) if you want to. I don't see it as an issue but consistancy never hurts.
EDIT: I realized that there's already a cat for Japanse live-action tv series, which is Japanese television dramas. So, since Japanese television series is the parent cat, maybe it should be used only on articles about franchise containing more than one format of tv series: GTO for example, which has an anime tv series as well as a drama (live-action) tv series. And now that I think about it, this also applies to the Sailor Moon article, as it includes a live-action series too. This means I was wrong, and the parent cat does fit the SM article after all. Kazu-kun (talk) 20:33, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Could you give some more examples? I would like to know if this includes pages like Death Note, Dragon Ball, Astro Boy and Hellsing (all but the last have live action films). Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:11, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Mmm... No, I don't think those fit in Japanese television series, but Cutie Honey certainly does. It includes anime tv series and live-action tv series. Use that criteria: pages that include at least an anime tv and a live-action tv (tv, not film).Kazu-kun (talk) 21:38, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Oh you mean series as in ongoing? I thought you were referring to a live-action film. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 23:46, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Starlights Musical Picture

Hey, long time no chat. I was wondering if I could change the Starlights musical group image, to the original three (Katayama Sayuri, Ono Hikari and Okuyama Momoko) because they were there longer (can't really use this as an excuse heh they were amazing during their stages), plus I particularly like this[2](just copy the link into the browser) image with Kakyuu. Was there any specific reason the newer ones were chosen? I can't believe Maker is shorter then Fighter in the newer group lol. Is it advised to use screenshots from the musical itself or promotional images?--Hanaichi 14:58, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Compare Wikimoon Sera Myu and Sailor Moon musicals. I'm unsure of how to proceed, as I've kind of given up on Wikimoon and Sera Myu is "their" featured article. -Malkinann (talk) 02:43, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

I did the update. Could you kindly wiki-link the character names in the new image? Just thought it would be less confusing for the layman. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 17:55, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] You said on my talk page

Sesshomaru, this was a very extreme response. Please review our guideline on not biting the newbies and, in the future, start with gentle warning messages when dealing with simple/experimental vandalism. --Masamage ♫ 01:25, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, maybe. Should I have left a note at WP:AIV? What is one to do when a user does nothing but vandalize and leave uncivil messages? Please reply on your talk page, Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 01:36, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Their first edit wasn't vandalism; it was an only-slightly-misguided effort to rewrite a section they thought was bad. When their edit was reverted, they probably just didn't understand why or how, and so kept making marks on it to try to assert their right to change it. Then they took your insistance that they would be blocked if they dared to keep editing as an insult, and didn't get why this was such a big deal. ("If you don't like it, tough" isn't exactly polite, but it's also not blatantly abusive, and is clearly motivated by confused annoyance.) This is all pretty normal stuff for someone who doesn't get what Wikipedia's about. Hopefully they'll follow the link I left to the welcome page, educate themselves, and shape up. They certainly deserve the chance, anyway. --Masamage ♫ 01:42, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Is 8HRE (talk · contribs) an attacker or another misguided editor? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 01:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Hard to say, since they don't know enough to sign their edits, but apparently do know enough to nominate themselves for adminship. Possible sockpuppet, possible strangely-shaped learning curve. Of course, it doesn't look like they're trying to accomplish anything constructive, but they're also reverting most of their disruptive edits, so who knows. They should at least be amply warned before any blocking is done, and directed to the sandbox. If they're misguided, this will help. If they're a troll, it won't, their further actions will condemn them, and they'll be easy to get rid of. --Masamage ♫ 01:50, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Well, it can't be a newb for one (see this). And (s)he somehow knows me. Strange that the report I made was turned down. What do you suggest should be done for this supposed new guy? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 02:01, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
I agree that it's somewhat suspicious, but it's not obvious enough to make the call on. Like I said, just give him some appropriate warnings, then if he doesn't stop, try again to get him blocked and it's way more likely to work. Part of the requirement at WP:AIV is that the person has to have been sufficiently warned about their behavior, unless they are being openly and blatantly disruptive on purpose. This guy is still kind of in the "weird and mildly annoying" range, and no one's said anything to him, so a block request is unlikely to pass. If you like, I can deliver the warnings myself and keep an eye on him for a while. --Masamage ♫ 02:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
By all means, please. Think the person should also be aware of WP:Trolling and WP:Sockpuppetry? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 02:11, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Eh, might be too much too soon; it would look like an accusation. They seem to have gone offline for now anyway. I've just left a basic template warning them to keep their test edits more constrained. Now all we can do is wait and see if it takes. (As to how he found you, he may have been lurking at virtually any talk page you've recently edited. Then there's the fact that you have a famous name. Experience tells me we'll probably never know exactly what was going on there.) --Masamage ♫ 02:17, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
After speaking to a second admin., I began a thread at WP:AIN regarding 8HRE's bizarre range of edits. You may want to watch the discussion to hear other people's views, for whatever. Cheers, Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 02:35, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Wow, I was right. BubblegumMadness is a vandal account after all. So much for biting the newbs huh? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:04, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tchaikovsky operas template

Hi. The answer to the blank line problem is not to have {{Tchaikovsky operas}} on its own separate line at the top of the article but to follow it immediately on the same line with the article text. See Voyevoda (opera) where I've done the above. Best. --GuillaumeTell (talk) 01:43, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I see what you mean (or at least, I saw what you meant after first visiting Iolanthe). Maybe your change should also be implemented in all the other opera templates, too - I'll have a word at the Opera Project. Thanks, anyway! --GuillaumeTell (talk) 10:39, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for the barnstar - it gave me a bit of a laugh. :) All I can usually manage with barnstars is a 'you done good'. A couple of questions while I've got your ear - discussion on Doi's suitability seems to have petered out. Would it be okay to re-add the guide to Doi on WP:SM/REF? Another site which seems to have escaped censure so far is SM Uncensored, which has been cited in a paper on fansubs (I linked to the paper on Talk:List of Sailor Moon episodes, I think) and doesn't offer downloads. Hopefully that should be okay for SM Uncensored's reputation... Secondly, I'd really like to ask at the reference library about Napier's Akira to Mononoke, as it might have more of a thematic analysis and possibly different stuff. (I think the earlier one would have more on SM, just because of space concerns in the revised Akira to Howl.) Thing is, I'm not sure how soon would be acceptable to ask??? I've only just recieved and used the information from Dreamland Japan, and I wouldn't like to abuse Nihonjoe's good faith (especially as I was a bit lax about picking up the information due to internet troubles). -Malkinann (talk) 10:54, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for not ripping my head off and jumping down my throat about the red article thing. I am, however, removing the link in the pictures, since the link to the actresses are already in the article, and both are red links, but I will only remove the one in the picture, since it's already in the article(I know I repeated, sorry, been a looong day lol).

Hey err do you have any idea how to reference the age range of the senshi? I know their age are given somewhere but how do we show that over a year or two past from the first to the fifth arc? Oh yeah about the SuperS thing I just want to make sure that the spelling and all that are appropriate before moving them to the main page. Sorry if I sounded like I was whining or something. --Hanaichi 14:03, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Ah right thanks. I'm now trying to figure out how to reference Hotaru's age. I suppose we could give her initial age a reference from somewhere lol but could we just state the episodes when she appears to be a newborn, 5 and 13? And I think I'll work on one of her aspects in the musical, Miss Dream. If there is anything needed from the musicals don't hesitate to ask me, I could probably do most of them from half the First stage till half the 4th stage.--Hanaichi 02:55, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bouguereau and Psyche

Whee, right back at you, Masamage! Or may I call you Rachel. So few people seem ever to have even heard of Bouguereau, so it's wonderful to find a fellow-admirer out there. With a very specific commonality like this, you and I have clearly become instant life-long friends. The earlier version is wonderful too, but the final version wins hands down for me. It's cleaner, brighter, and ... well, sexier.

Btw, I looked for ages for a Wiki-image and couldn't track it down because I was looking under the title Le ravissement de Psyché, the only French version of the name I've ever known; yet the title on the image is L'enlèvement de Psyché. Do you know anything about this alternative title? Many thanks. -- JackofOz (talk) 04:42, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I think dabs have a naming convention of their own, can't find it though.

[edit] Chibiusa unpopular

Would it be fair to state that as "unpopular among Western audiences"? --Masamage ♫ 01:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Not really, the rest of the passage seems to be talking about the Japanese ratings. It said that by 94, the fans of 1992 were beginning to grow out of Sailor Moon, so the show refocussed on Chibiusa, who was unpopular. -Malkinann (talk) 09:20, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Maybe her manga incarnation was significantly more likeable? That, and maybe Chibiusa suffered from Ikuhara's proto-Utena-esque story, it was quite heavy and symbolic and that was part of why SuperS was unpopular. Maybe it rubbed off on Chibiusa a bit? Maybe the marketing folk made a mistake in refocussing the show on Chibiusa too. -Malkinann (talk) 21:38, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sailor Moon's failure

Hi Masamage, I'm having some trouble interpreting a segment of the Anime Encyclopedia article on SM. It goes, after talking about how the dub was brought to America, shown at early dead times (as in who watches TV at that time anyway? it doesn't say what time) and it flopped. "SM's failure was an object lesson in how a multimedia sensation, heavily reliant on merchandising tie-ins, can crash without adequate support - Bandai would not make the same mistake with the later Pokemon."

One could consider the DiC and Cloverway dubs to be distinct productions - would the word "production" instead of "series" fit better?

[edit] Sailor Senshi

Thanks for that! There were a couple more things, but I can't find them atm - although the henshin separates the lazy girl and the dedicated superhero, the superhero is as much of a crybaby. Minomiya was being paraphrased (but riskouyo was quoted) by Allison - so really it should say, According to Allison, Minomiya said blah blah blah. Also, the bit from Schodt was ported from the History of manga article - I'm assuming it's from Dreamland Japan. The bit on Girl Power needs a citation - we could use the one from the main article, Girl Power Make Up, but it doesn't really treat it as Girl Power except in the title. The Femspec paper by Newsom goes into much more depth on dubbie Sailor Moon as Girl Power, but alas, the article was peer-reviewed by western feminists, not by Sailor Moon fans, so it's wrong on some basic series information. We really should try to get a hold of Grigsby's whole 1999 book chapter - it's a revised edition of her 1998 paper (which I have) and as such she's changed her mind a bit about some things in regards to consumerism, ancient depictions of females and the Senshi. In the 1998 paper she's like 'okay, so they do draw back a bit to ancient women's roles, but they're mainly consumerist schills', but in the 1999 paper she's like 'they're very much the strong and tough village women, with a modern/Westernish consumerist gloss'. Hope that helps. -Malkinann (talk) 21:30, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
