Pulled this off the main Angel page and it goes here somewhere, but I don't feel like working it in right now:
:Shinji openly asks Asuka what the Angels are and why they are fighting them, and she retorts that they don't know, but they still have to defend themselves against the Angels by fighting them.  It is not that the series does not clearly explain why the Angels are attacking or what their motivations are, it is an intentional secret.  Although some information about why Nerv is fighting the Angels and where they ultimately come from is given later in the series, more specific information about the Angels is often lacking; they remain fairly enigmatic throughout the series.

Should this be merged back into the main Angel article? --Reichu 19:04, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Anyone? --Reichu 11:18, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Yes, the main article looks way too stubby without this material. --thewayneiac 17:08 EDT. April 23, 2010

I have edited the Motivations and Psychology section for the recent translation change (see this thread). Are we treating CI as canon, so should the section be changed to just quote the CI as gospel? Also, I think there is messy overlap with the main Angel article (eg blood type). IMHO either the pages should a) be merged or b) "Angel" should just discuss whether Adam, Lilith, Kowaru and the Liln are angels and then the "Adam's Children" page goes into detail about Sachiel to Armisael --Nomis1242 14:00, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Yes, this should most likely be merged back into the main Angel article. I must have been low on one of my meds when I split them in the first place... Regarding CI, the wiki treats it "like gospel" provided it doesn't contradict anything, although utilizing the ref tags to point out the source of this information -- for people who wander in and wonder "WTF?", and to cover our asses in general -- is a good idea. --Reichu 02:42, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, Reichu. Could you please do the merge? I'm sure I'd break it!--Nomis1242 07:09, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Both articles are a mess, so merging will probably entail a lot of restructuring and rewriting. I don't mind being the responsible party, but this may be something I'll have to do in gradual increments. --Reichu 07:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Pulled this off the main Angel page and it goes here somewhere, but I don't feel like working it in right now:

Shinji openly asks Asuka what the Angels are and why they are fighting them, and she retorts that they don't know, but they still have to defend themselves against the Angels by fighting them. It is not that the series does not clearly explain why the Angels are attacking or what their motivations are, it is an intentional secret. Although some information about why Nerv is fighting the Angels and where they ultimately come from is given later in the series, more specific information about the Angels is often lacking; they remain fairly enigmatic throughout the series.
