Name

The name Eudial is pretty obviously derived from the mineral Eudialyte (Na₄(Ca, Ce, Fe, Mn)₂ZrSi₆O₁₇(OH, Cl)₂).

--Eudial 19:40, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I just watched the Subbed version of Her first apperarance. In the japanse version it has her name as Eugeal both in the text and vocal. They are either pronunced the same or I heard wrong.Lego3400: The Sage of Time 02:26, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

They are basically the same. It's just a difference in the translation. The Katakana character for "di" (dee) can also be pronounced as "ji" (gee). -SaturnYoshi ^{THE VOICES} 02:28, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Exactly right. 'Eudial' and 'Eugeal' are spelled and pronounced the same in Japanese; the reason we know how to really spell it is because eudialyte exists, but eugealite (eugealyte) doesn't. --Masamage 02:38, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Aesthetics

This page looks horrible right now, mainly because of the picture of Tellu. It needs a more streamlined look. Danny Lilithborne 12:31, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Heights

Are the height measurements listed on the page accurate? Where did they come from? I've never really been successful at finding official heights for any Sailor Moon characters besides Sailor Moon herself and, oddly, Sailor Pluto.

Clean-up

I reverted the page back to the anonymous version and marked it for clean-up. Not being familiar with the manga, I'm not 100% sure that the information on this page is correct. I've heard that the manga alias names may not be 100% correct (last I heard, there was some controversy around Ian Miller's translations, explanations, etc.). Little help?

Copyright problem!

This article uses four screenshots. We're only allowed one. --Masamage 18:35, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, had those four screenshots were from the same episode, we would be in some trouble. Unless you can find an image with all the sisters, and as long as the sections about the sisters are there, I see no real problems. -- ReyBrujo 02:45, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I posted this before Kunzite responded quite adequately to the other one. ^^ --Masamage 03:41, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Tellu's alias

In the subtitles of Sailor Moon S Tellu's alais is written as Lulu Teruno. The article says "Ruru", but I'm pretty sure they were going for "Lulu". I mean, it does match her name more (ex. Mimete = Mimi) and "Lulu" is easier to say than "Ruru". -SaturnYoshi ^{THE VOICES} 19:13, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. --Masamage 03:48, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

The "R" sound does not exist in Japan and is pronounced as an "L" Sound. A notiable example is Kirara from InuYasha. The dub and orginal pronuce it KiLaLa but it is spelled (in roman letters) with r's. --User:Lego3400

Yeah, there are lots of different romanization techniques. --Masamage 00:12, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

The r and l sound in Japanese are BLENDED. It's not that Japanese lacks one sound over the other, it's that the romanization by Hepburn decided to go with the r over the l in romanizing. ^_^ I took Japanese. If you look closely to "Haruka" you can pick up an rl sound rather than just an r or just an l this is due to the placing of the tongue in the mouth is between the r and the l. --Hitsuji Kinno 18:37, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Twin

"Cyprine and Ptilol (Cyprin and Peirol in the dub) are, together, considered the fifth of the Witches 5. It is unclear whether Ptilol is Cyprine's twin or just an extension of Cyprine's power; Naoko Takeuchi states the former in the Materials Collection, yet they seem to act as one."

Does anyone else see an issue with this sentence.. It's unclear earlier and then later, but the creator said... --;; Uhh.. I'd go with the "creator" over the "unclear" Anyone object? If it's OK, then the next person can fix it.

Done! -SaturnYoshi ^{THE VOICES} 18:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Semi-protect

Can we get this page protected? Someone keeps changing 'Mimet' to 'Mimette' and now they're switching IP addresses. --Masamage 05:14, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

It happened again. --Masamage 02:51, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

What exactly do we have to do to get a page protected? -SaturnYoshi ^{THE VOICES} 07:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I guess just go ahead and request a semi-protection and give them the reasons. -SaturnYoshi ^{THE VOICES} 09:27, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
