I was going to set out Standards and Conventions but I thought if I just posted it I'd look like I was charging in going "this is the way it is 'cause I said so" when in fact the final decision for all things rests in you. First big question is: why should NERV, GEHIRN, and SEELE not be spelled in all-caps? They are universally spelled with all-caps in the series, not just logos and crud but in actual printouts and stuff. I don't really particularly mind one way or the other, ultimately, but why is it going to be "Nerv" and why not "NERV"? (yeah, big difference ^_^). More importantly, why are you adamant that it is "Spear of Longinus" over "Lance of Longinus"? The original Japanese can go either way, as is my understanding. On top of this, from all of my studies as a medieval europe guy about the Crusades and stuff, every source I've ever read calls it "the Lance of Longinus", or "the Holy Lance", and occasionally "Spear of Destiny" is used. My pride as a student of the Crusades is on the line here: it's really always spelled in theological stuff as "the Lance of Longinus" (and although ultimately ADV Film's dub doesn't count for anything, "Lance of Longinus" is also what they used. Finally....Reichu, I believe you are forgetting that "Lance of Longinus" is alliterative, and thus sounds really frelling cool. Btw, are the terms "Black Moon" and "Black Egg" interchangeable? I'm fuzzy on that. Thanks. ^_^ --V 11:49, 31 July 2007 (EDT)
