Talk:Cross

List of Appearences: the reason for putting the episode #'s before each example is so the list is easy to follow and it's easy to see which episodes are being talked about, it also looks much neater. This is why it should be reverted to it's previous format.

The way you have re-written some parts is needlessly verbose and complicates what I said, no reason for me to edit the article again as you will simply revert it - so I'll stick this here -

The underside of Tokyo-3 visible on the "roof" of the GeoFront cavern (the "ceiling city") is configured in a large cross formation (Episode 01, Episode 21). This needlessly complicates what was originally written and isn't more descriptive - During Episode 21 we see New-Tokyo 3 [as seen] from the GeoFront is configured in a large cross formation, this is also discernable from Episode 01. --Zugzwang

I think that part is more clear in this version. The old version was "we see Tokyo-3 from the GeoFront is configured in a large cross formation", which I thought was a bit vague.--V 12:48, 24 January 2008 (PST)

The "Eva graveyard" pit has a Cross of Lorraine configuration (Episode 23) "has" should be "is in" - could be better worded as "The Eva graveyard is in the form of a cross of Lorraine."--Zugzwang

I agree fully. I have changed it to this now. --V 12:48, 24 January 2008 (PST)

Eva-01 departs for outer space holding herself in a crucifixion pose. The Mass Production Evas fall to Earth frozen in crucifixion poses. "Cruxfixion pose" sounds silly, "in the form of a crucifix" as previously written sounded better. --Zugzwang

I'm not to happy with repeating the same phrase twice either, I will touch it up. Yes, "crucifixion forms" now.--V 12:48, 24 January 2008 (PST)

A "crucifix" refers to a Latin cross that has the figure of Jesus' crucified body on it. A cross that appears without Jesus' figure should properly speaking simply be referred to as a "cross" and not a "crucifix". Figure and body mean the same thing. "Properly speaking simply be" should be cut down to "simply be."Previous entry was worded better:

A "crucifix" refers to a Latin cross that has the figure of Jesus' crucified on it. A cross that appears without Jesus' figure should simply be referred to as a "cross" and not a "crucifix".--Zugzwang

I fixed it as you pointed out figure and body are a bit redundant. I put in "correctly" this time. --V 12:48, 24 January 2008 (PST)

Alright I brushed up the article as you said, reverted back the by-episode guide. Is this good? By the way, where did you get that AD Tsurumaki quote? (good to have a link or at least a reference to the source). Thanks. --V 12:56, 24 January 2008 (PST)

So Zugzy, are you happy with the version we've got now? Anything left to tweak? --V 16:28, 28 January 2008 (PST)

On Ramiel

While the "flash" before the death ray is vaguely cross-shaped(same for Sachi, Zer and Israfel), none of the explosions from the death ray are. Ramiel's blasts produce huge vertical columns of flame or steam but not crosses. Israfel's blasts are not cross-shaped either. --UrsusArctos 08:49, 27 January 2008 (PST)

Cross images

I could not find the images of crosses mentioned in this article in ep. 16, 21, and 23. This is probably because the images are not uploaded or I just could not find them. Can somebody put those images on the page? Deepak 20:51 28 September 2011 (EDT)
