| http://myanimelist.net/anime/5462 The last two specials did not air with the last two episodes originally, so the end date is completely incorrect. In 4+1'st lesson chibi-Amano says herself that 6 years have passed since the last lesson, which makes the end date around 1994. I already requested the edit but thought I should explain my reasoning, since I have a feeling the mod will most probably deny it for no reason otherwise |

| For the hentai Koikishi Purely Kiss, please add the following to the 'more info' tab. On December 9th 2014, there was a released titled "Koikishi Purely☆Kiss THE ANIMATION ～Special Edition～" which contained both OVAs with all sex scenes removed. Other scenes including nudity are kept intact. Feel free to change the wording. Also, for the same anime, please change the characters Kazama Akari, Kuninaka Kaori and Shidou Mana to supporting characters as neither episodes follow their route nor focus on them. The other 3 can stay main characters. |

| #7082 The approving moderator may have made a mistake and reverted his/her change on the title. The database is fluid, and we don't always get it right on the first try. In any case, I'll consider this case as closed. On your last statement, valid in regards to what? #7083 We need to wait to determine whether the title and episode numbering will change. If the title remains and the episode numbers continue, we consider it as a single series with continuous broadcast even if it's a second season. #7084 Thanks, I've added IwasaB to the Extra Edition list of producers. I can't speak for others, but I've always considered sound production studios and music production studios as part of the list of producers. Perhaps this is something we as a staff have to resolve on our end. #7085, #7086, #7087 It has not ended. Broadcast will end with the 50th episode on December 26, 2014. #7088 Done. Default title has also been changed to reflect this. #7089 Done. Changed to Digimon Adventure Tri. with a period. #7090 Fixed title. I also did a little bit of digging. According to a Ritsumeikan University paper (p. 4) and the accompanying footnote 31 (p. 8), it seems this work only became part of a series with the production of this episode. The first two episodes are Tokkyuu Kantai (特急艦隊) and Kuroneko Manzai (黒猫萬歳), both produced in 1933. Are these not in the database yet? If not, we may end up merging these into the current entry. #7091 The English Wikipedia mentions that Specials 4+1 and 5 were released with the LaserDisc collection. Can you verify when this was released? #7092 Done. In the future, please submit character changes through Edit Character while using the provided Reason field. |
arsonal said: #7091 The English Wikipedia mentions that Specials 4+1 and 5 were released with the LaserDisc collection. Can you verify when this was released? I resubmitted it with the correct date The earliest Laser Disc Box Set I could find is this one and as you can see, Session 4+1 and Final Session are both in the listing and according to this, it was released on 1995/09/18 which is consistent with Serhiyko said: chibi-Amano says herself that 6 years have passed since the last lesson Although ANN lists release date as 1998, but maybe it was re-released or something, I don't know |

I can't speak for others, but I've always considered sound production studios and music production studios as part of the list of producers. Perhaps this is something we as a staff have to resolve on our end. Nothing is stated in the rules and the lack of music producers being accounted for on MAL rubbed me in a "we don't add them" unspoken kind of way like the main title name changes for franchises (ex. Ghost in the Shell becoming Koukaku Kidoutai) compared the the extensiveness of ANN's accountability for music producers. (Sans music producers being Producer-producers like Aniplex too) If it was/is it not the case of exclusion, my apologies for the assumption. |

 |
| #7094 Done. I'll take the Amazon date as the correct one. Thanks for looking into it. #7095 You're right. I overlooked that portion when reading the source. If Kaitou Joker is indeed 13 episodes, that puts the ending date in January, which is strange. I'll need to verify further, as I need to check what anime series will be taking that time slot in January. #7096 It may be a case of some moderators not really looking for that particular information. Personally, whenever I see 制作 in the credits, whether it's animation, music, or sound, I will always include it in the Producer field. We have these producers in the database anyway. #7097 We have not determined the appropriate course of action for Short Peace. Our guidelines need to be clarified first in order to accommodate for future cases. Rest assured that it's on our list of things to do, but we currently do not have a timeline. #7098, #7099, #7100, #7101 Done. |
| http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=28759 Again weird title change, the original title in Katakana is ハーバーテイル, subtitle is added just because it's on the DVD cover even though if you search that name you won't find any reference to it. The official website, IMDB, everything refers to it as Harbor Tale, as it should be. |
| http://myanimelist.net/anime/7248/Gunbuster_Renewal_EX/moreinfo Change second episode's title to this: |
|
| http://myanimelist.net/anime/1181/Hikyou_Tanken_Fam_&_Ihrlie/pics No idea what are the guidelines for stuff like this, but... I think the current main picture should be swapped with the other one. The anime looks nothing like it, so it is very misleading, which is not good. |
| #7103, #7105 Done. #7104 Thanks for the second source. I've gone ahead and updated the Kaitou Joker entry. Please submit the second season through the standard submission channel. AniDB still has Oshiri Kajiri Mushi 3 as airing. I can't verify on my own, but it might be a case of the broadcast of new episodes has been delayed. We'll wait before taking action. #7106 I know it's not ideal, but we'd like the default image to contain the Japanese title. If you can propose another one, we'll be happy to consider. |

| Can I have info on the stuff I submitted that is still in the queue? I don't even remember all of them. I know there's this: http://myanimelist.net/anime/28691/ That was added on AniDB, so I assume it's animated 'enough' for them. Like I said earlier it's an animated character 'interacting' with a live action woman, there's a bit more focus on the animated character in general. I'd like a list of the others even if they're still on hold so I can keep track of them. And I want to know what's going on with DB guidelines again, because I'm not getting replies about it and some of the stuff I added earlier got accepted despite not being valid according to what I've been told through PMs. I need to know what's going on so I can re-add stuff that is now valid or know why 00:08/Watashi no Kao are valid and not Hand Soap. Thank you. abystoma2 said: And while you´re at it, could you rewrite Jojo's Bizarre Adventure to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure?

So you should probably do the same: keep re-adding it till one day some other mod sees it and approves It's really annoying that this is the only solution. The guidelines are pretty clear on what constitutes a valid entry and I think they are fine, it's just that some mods misinterpret the validation criteria or add rules to them, denying independent works even though the DB is full of them already. A "reputable" release is supposed to be enough, except when it's not... |

You don't think twice that it's pronounced entirely different in Japan from a glace. Hence why so many database titles are the #s rather than words. They actually say the title "Mittsu no Hanashi" in the anime, so that should be the title. When the Japanese lady is introducing before the first animation begins around the 15 second mark. Granted nothing is said Mittsu no Kumo to indicate either way but ３つ systematically has been pronounced mittsu in Japan; I'd be shocked if was actually pronounced differently. Magic Kaito 1412 has its title said at the end of every episode and 一四一二 (ichi yon ichi ni) is spoken by Kaito himself. More complex anime usually have furigana on official documents like when anime use English words as a part of their title. |

I don't think the way it's pronounced is of any relevance to romanizing the title. Numbers are used in both languages to simplify reading. There's no reason to complicate everything just so that foreigners know exactly how it's pronounced, I don't think that's the point. lanblade said: Magic Kaito 1412 has its title said at the end of every episode and 一四一二 (ichi yon ichi ni) is spoken by Kaito himself. More complex anime usually have furigana on official documents like when anime use English words as a part of their title. Exactly, so by your logic it should be called Magic Kaito Ichi Yon Ichi Ni on MAL. Of course it's just my opinion, I think it makes more sense to leave Arabic numbers as they are, because they are not part of language that require romanization, it is more consistent with the state of the database, it is safer from exceptions like Magic Kaito, dates, etc. and it's simpler in general. If mods decide that numbers should be romanized according to their Japanese/Chinese/Korean pronunciations, then there will be a lot of entries to modify, and if we want to start romanizing the less common reading only, it's even more trouble. Also why is this thread so slow to load sometimes? Does it fetch all messages and only display the ones corresponding to the current page? |

You brought up the importance of pronunciation on dictating romanization before for your own entry: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=30866&show=6820#msg35481717 If pronunciation didn't matter on romanization then we wouldn't factor in furigana for titles either. Vampire Knight would end up being titled Vampire Kishi. Or titles with historical kana orthography would end up being wonky; like Omoide Poroporo for example, if you romanize the title it'd actually be Omohide Poroporo but way back in the day it was still pronounced Omoide even though it was spelled like Omohide. And previous requests where numbers became words for pronunciation purposes have all been granted by various mods (ex: Hyakumannen Chikyuu no Tabi: Bander Book, Time Slip Ichimannen: Prime Rose, Hyakubanme no Saru, Hyakumannen Attara, Dousuru?, Juupiki no Kaeru, Juuippiki no Neko, etc.) Isn't that the goal for romanization; to be able to say the title like it would be in its original language? Nothing is making it more complicated, most of the title is already a string of nonsense to foreigners wanting to pronounce it (otherwise we'd use English titles); might as well finish it out by converting the numbers to be pronounced correctly too. Yup, that's what I think Magic Kaito should be titled on MAL, no different that the other entries which were changed. The state of the database used to have mostly all English transcribed titles too as the main title before the great romanization migration, so consistency with numbers now is kinda moot. There are already a lot of entries to modify right now for a hundred other reasons (we've got 357 pages of changes), this is just one more ingredient in the never-ending stone soup. Less common reading? That's what people said about the Ghibli movies being romanized but it happened and people got over it. EDIT: I was cruising AniDB and they seem to have a similar system. http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=2215 http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=1869 http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=2991 http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=5382 http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=5486 Pronunciation spelling when someone remembers but damn near everyone forgets so most are numbers. |
lanbladeDec 21, 2014 6:56 PM
| Then why wasn't 8 Man changed to Eitoman when I brought that up? Or Eightman I guess due to katakana romanization rules. And my post you linked has absolutely nothing to do with this, it's basically a mod deciding for no reason that those kanji meant "Baghdad" even though they don't, as you can see for yourself in 1 second by googling it and getting no results, then pasting it into google translate and getting the correct romanization. Romanizing kanji as they are read != transcribing Arabic numerals to their Japanese pronunciation and romanizing the result. Obviously mods have no idea what they are doing, otherwise they'd follow the guidelines, right? (No offense meant to them...) I showed examples that prove my point and you did as well, but nothing is proven until a mod actually comes up and says so (and then actually follows it). But I hope you realize how dumb it'd be for someone to look for some title with numbers in it and not find it because the title has them spelled out in some pronunciation that said someone might not even know. It's overcomplicating things for no reason and undoing the very reason for Arabic numerals' existence. How do you deal with 00:08? Call it zero zero zero hachi? hachi byou? zero ji hachi byou? Or leave it that way arbitrarily? Hell I'm basically just re-iterating why Arabic numerals exist in the first place. |
JacquelinDec 21, 2014 7:12 PM
| Because you didn't ask for it. http://origin.myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=30866&show=6660#msg34450217 And again, everyone forgets the numbers. Even I forgot it and I'm 3 posts below yours. How is it dumb? It's not like the numbers will be gone, they'd be there under synonyms, they'd still come up in the search bar. Everyone can find it like normal just like with the Ghibli movies. Ain't nobody know Majo no Takkyuubin by name but they still find Kiki's Delivery Service like normal anyway. IDK how to deal with 00:08, I haven't seen it. Do they say the title in it? Is there anything on the creator's site? If nothing from the source indicates a pronunciation then leave it like the original. It would make no sense to give it a random one if it's not known nor has a frame of reference. Like with the manga database, titles are corrected quite often because pronunciation is found later to be different than was was originally written. If it has furigana and special pronunciation from the source, then write that like how the titles are currently treated in database. Main titles have leaned towards pronunciation, so numerals should get written out because the numerals can be pronounced a bajillion ways. It's nothing about a 1 in the Japanese title being a 1 in the main title for cosmetic purposes like ★ and ♪ and × and ! If the main titles aren't supposed to reflect pronunciation then all those mods who 'corrected' #s into words for the 3 years I've been here better set me fucking straight. jesus, I don't even remember a single rejection from any user who requested a #--->word. |
