Listing the episode names
I originally toyed with the idea of putting all 3 names for episodes in their templates but thought it looked "cluttered", but if you think it will work okay. The problem is that each episode has kind of 3 titles: the original Japanese title, the English title Gainax came up with, and ADV Film's official translation of the original Japanese title. On top of this, we could like the kangi for the original Japanese.
Should we list all of these in template, list some and put the other info in the "Notes" section, or just have 2 slots: "Japanese title" (that is, list ADV film's official English translation instead of the Japanese) and the English Title selected by Gainax? The result being i.e. "An Angel's Attack"/"Angel Attack" and we just don't bother to list "Shito, shūrai" or the japanese characters? Btw, I got it in my head that Gainax was spelled all-capitals "GAINAX" for some reason; what's the story with that? At any rate, another issue is do we spell things in all-caps as "ANGEL ATTACK" or "THE BEAST", or would it be less...garish, to just write "Angel Attack" and "The Beast"?--V 19:01, 23 July 2007 (EDT)
- Best to bring all this up in a thread somewhere. But in any case, I think we should basically throw everything into the template and then decide later if and how we display it. ObsessiveMathsFreak 05:41, 24 July 2007 (EDT)
- Reichu told me to put a freeze on English dub info for the moment; please revert changes you made to the character infobox template. --V 13:25, 11 August 2007 (EDT)
- The edits adding the other dub VAs names have been reverted, which is altogether a good thing as I was never able to get them done right. ObsessiveMathsFreak 06:50, 13 August 2007 (EDT)
Problem with user rights
This page: Special pages should have a subsection under "restricted pages" which, besides saying "block user", should have a thing letting me make someone an Administrator (below Bureaucrat but above normal user); I cannot see this; why don't I have it? Can you help?--V 20:34, 15 August 2007 (EDT)
