Talk:Nerv Headquarters

I suggest that Central Dogma and Terminal Dogma be merged into this. --Reichu 23:40, 22 August 2007 (EDT)

I think they're significant enough as to merit their own pages. Meanwhile, why is it spelled "Headquarters" with a capital "H" now? (Not that I'm complaining, it looks nicer that way). --V 09:41, 23 August 2007 (EDT)

It's hard to write about Nerv HQ without mentioning Central Dogma, because a lot (most?) of the active Nerv HQ facility is IN Central Dogma.

Terminal Dogma has most of the more "esoteric" crap... but ultimately it's just another section of HQ.

It's "Headquarters" because this is a place. Hence, proper noun. --Reichu 10:16, 23 August 2007 (EDT)

Er, well I guess we could expand them if they get big enough. I just found out that it doesn't work when I try to redirect a link to a specific subsection (for example, going to "Nerv-01" just redirects to "Nerv" instead of "Nerv-01" subsection in the Nerv article. --V 10:19, 23 August 2007 (EDT)

We should bring that up with OMF. --Reichu 16:34, 23 August 2007 (EDT)

Freudian Appearance

Okay, maybe this is one too many times watching the Da Vinci Code, but I assumed that "Pyramid" = Phallus shape, and "inverted pyramid" = vagina. Of course, I'm thinking of it in terms of a cross-section seen from the side, not a "bird's eye" view.--V 17:58, 24 September 2007 (PDT)

I was going by the pyramid's placement at the top of the opening. --thewayneiac Sept. 24, 2007. 21:17 EDT.

I really don't see it. I mean maybe if it were seen at a different angle (pyramid always at the top or something) but I always just saw "pyramid" --V 21:33, 24 September 2007 (PDT)

Pyramid-shaft...I never understood why it was like that. It's about as freudian as Shamshel looks like a phallus, crazy thinking. No freudian imagery there.--UrsusArctos 23:37, 24 September 2007 (PDT)

I'd recommend dropping the "freudian appearance" note. The feed-back on this assertion (here and in the episode commentary) suggest that it is hardly blatant; instead most people look at it and say, "Um, sorry, I just don't see it..." --Shin-seiki 07:05, 25 September 2007 (PDT)

OK, I fixed the problem with the usual weasel words. --thewayneiac Sept. 25, 2007 17:22 EDT.

I removed it altogether. It doesn't obviously look like "female genitalia" anymore than I thought the trench was "vagina" and the pyramid was "phallus shape". If it's that subjective and not obvious enough...it shouldn't be listed here as that makes it look like a fact. --V 19:54, 25 September 2007 (PDT)
