[edit] Future

I'm sorry to use this for idle chitchat. It's just that I'm a fan of this anime, and I was wondering if the novelization is currently being continued? If so, do you guys think that the anime will continue? ('cause I hope so) Sirius85 20:26, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Demographic

Is this a Shojo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.229.2.86 (talk) 18:25, March 2, 2008 (UTC)

The anime is seinen. I haven't read the manga, but the article says it's shoujo. I added the anime's demographic to the infobox. --Eruhildo (talk) 01:08, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
The Trinity Blood novels are seinen. The manga version is shojo. Anime series don't have demographics, hence it not being in the infobox. If one were to guess, it would probably closer to shonen or seinen. Collectonian (talk) 01:11, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Wait, anime don't have demographics? Why not? --Eruhildo (talk) 06:42, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
There was a big long talk about it in the project's MOS, which is resulting in the demographic field being removed from the main box and put only in the manga and light novels. The basic gist of it is that such demographic choices are not generally declared by the original companies and there is no way to really say what the target demographic was. Manga demographics comes from the magazines they are serialized in, while unfortunately light novels have been reduced to only allowing "male" and "female" as their demographic (which I disagree with myself, as light novel magazines can also be seinen, shonen, et al.). Here is a link to the discussion Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (anime- and manga-related articles)#Demographics. Collectonian (talk) 06:51, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, I came across that discussion, but I don't have nearly enough patience to read something that long. So I just skipped to the bottom and thought it was talking about something other than it was. Thanks for summarizing it for me. --Eruhildo (talk) 07:45, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Wait a minute. How can the manga be shojo? It always said before that it was shonen and even the novels are for males. It does not make sense and the Trinity Blood manga is not even remotely shojo. Just because the characters are feminine looking and Kyujyo Kiyo is a female does not mean it is shojo. I know because I have read it. It is not shojo and I want it to be known that its demographic is shonen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.225.172.71 (talk) 21:02, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Trinity Blood's manga was serialized in a shojo magazine. That is the sole determiner of whether it is shojo, not the author nor the appearance of the character. Collectonian (talk) 21:06, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Novel demographic

I don't feel we should label the light novel as "male", as it's too vague a demographic to give. We should wait until an idea is settled before changing it to either shounen or seinen. I made the mistake earlier of changing it to seinen before realising that there was a dispute over whether or not it is seinen or shounen. AjaaniSherisu (talk) 23:48, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

But be it a male oriented light novel is not disputed. I'm returning the male in the demographic field. --ChuChu (talk) 23:39, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Sorry about that ^_^, I didn't read the talk page about light novel demographics before I changed it ^_^. I was about to edit it back, but thank you for doing it ^_^. AjaaniSherisu (talk) 23:48, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
No problem :) --ChuChu (talk) 00:03, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
Personally, I agree that it should be seinen, but the project consensus is that for light novel demographics, we will only use male or female, hence it being changed to male here. Collectonian (talk) 00:27, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
There are light novels aimed at teenage boys, and they are mentioned by the publisher as so, in this case I would like to use: demographic = teenage boys, or even use shounen. like Ginban Kaleidoscope and Happy Seven, but to avoid any more heated discussions using male is fine with me too. --ChuChu (talk) 12:04, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reassessment

I have proposed a reassessment of this article at WP:ASSESS. --MahaPanta (talk) 20:23, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Alrighty. I've been working on this one awhile. There is still much to do before a peer review, which is probably why its still at start. I never like to reassess articles I work on myself to B ;-), but I welcome outside review to see if it may be B now. Collectonian (talk) 20:31, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
I believe it is now B class. I also believe if we focus on WP:GA?, we can get this article up to a Good Article by the end of April. --MahaPanta (talk) 21:56, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
My eventual goal is FA, however the novels and manga are still coming out here, hence my not pressing towards it too rapidly as I want it to be complete and accurate. The novels are the primary medium, but currently the plot and characters are almost exclusively anime focused as it the anime was licensed and released here first. Collectonian (talk) 21:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Mine too, but lets take this one step at a time. I'll go ahead and nominate it for WP:GA?, but we need to work on the reception section before it can become A-Class.--MahaPanta (talk) 22:09, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Also, sorry about the maintenance box, I have the Fullmetal Alchemist article up in another tab. I fixed all the references and nominating it for WP:GA?. and that's where I meant to put the box.--MahaPanta (talk) 22:12, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Please don't nominate it for GA. It is not ready. It needs more referencing and some other things before it will be ready. Collectonian (talk) 22:19, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi Guys, I just took a look at the article and I have re-assessed it B class. It still has a bit of work needed before it gets to GA class but as MahaPanta said at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment this is defiantly no longer star class. Keep up the good work on this article, --Mifter (talk) 16:15, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
