Category talk:Anime

message: Does anyone know how this talk page is ending up categorized in :Category:Anime.  It shouldn't be there.  I can't find the text when editing, so I assume it is in a template somewhere, yet I can't find it in a template. --Samuel Wantman 22:35, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I've tried replacing it with another todo template. Still does it! I'm planning to merge this to do list with a couple of others so it won't be like this for much longer. --Squilibob 12:17, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Categorization of this talk page

thread_title:  To do list 

message: The page intro states "The term anime in English is generally taken to refer to Japanese animation; it is also sometimes used to refer to animation from elsewhere which has been drawn in that style.". Just make this clear, are we or are we not including in the Anime cat and it's subcats titles that are "anime-style" but have little or no Japanese involvement; i.e. are titles such as Spheres (anime) to be included and, if so, where is the line drawn, e.g. should things like Avatar: The Last Airbender also then be included?

thread_title:  "Korean anime" 

message: Is there any reason at all for Hentai to be abreviated so? I think it's confusing for outsiders. Because our article on Hentai is spelled out. And on the merge, we've got :Category:H_anime and :Category:Hentai this is redundant. And finally :Category:Yaoi is under :Category:Anime and not :Category:Anime_by_genre, reason? If nobody objects I'll change the :Category:Yaoi myself later this week. But I'll wait to move on the :Category:H_anime/:Category:Hentai thing, as that's going to be more involved. And finally I think the Category's on a whole could do with a good cleaning. I've got some more examples but it's late and first day of school in the morning! :( Elmer92413 05:39, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Category change/merge "H anime" & "Hentai", moving Yaoi and finally general Category clean up 

message: You might be asking, "does such a thing exist?"  I think I'd be correct to guess that most people would not call Kawamoto's recent feature film The Book of the Dead an anime, or Winter Days.  Their style is completely different.  And yet they are both Japanese (although Winter Days less so) and animated.  The same problem arises with Japanese animated films that were made before the anime style developed - for example, Momotaro's Divine Sea Warriors, the first animated feature film to be made in Japan.  Should a new category be created?  Something like "Japanese animation in a non-anime style", perhaps.  This wouldn't be a problem if this category was called "Japanese animation" in the first place instead of "Anime", like the categories Russian animation and Korean animation.  That would make it very clear what SHOULD be included in the category and what shouldn't, as opposed to the ambiguous rules currently in place. Esn 01:49, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
