thread_title: Question

message: I'm not an administrator but I will say that there were a lot of spoiled links on the page.  Whoever wrote the page did a good job but most of the things which were meant as links don't exist here. Also on the question above, they probably don't have noses to set the animation apart from other shows. -- 24.56.235.95. July 4th 2006, at 2:27 AM (on my watch).
:I assumed that the links were meant to be there - and point to nothing - in case anyone wanted to create the linked page. --JeffreyAtW 18:37, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm new to this, but I think the link for singer of "chance to shine" should probably be redirected to point to nothing.  Right now link is pointing to Arai Akino page.  Singer of the song is actually Kawamitsu Akino (stage name "AKINO" from group bless4).  The song is track 3 on her album "Lost in Time". --Mv2h 07:14, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Note 

message: Okay, the song "Waratteta", by: Sukoshi...what does "Waratteta" mean anyway? Some please tell me! It's driving me nuts!
:"Laughter," or "smile."
:Most literally, the meaning is "was laughing", with the subject omitted as per the Japanese tendency.  This makes it somewhat ambiguous as to whether this should be "I was Laughing", "You were Laughing", etc.  The second line, "Waratteta zutto hou ga yasashii yo", is one I'd translate to "it was nicer than ever when (you) laughed", for what that's worth. Odd little tune, thank you, Kanno-san.  -EchoNull 20:38, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

message: This sounds like an advertisement, or a salesman trying to sell this article/show. Somebody please make this formal sounding, like an encyclopedia, not a catalog or a magazine review. Abby724 05:14, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article doesn't sound encyclopedic... 

message: Every anime, show, movie, comic etc with a wiki article has trivia, so it shouldn't be removed.
"The trivia is at turns POV, original research, unsource, or just plain inane (no noses?) source what you put back in, and don't make a trivia header, please" you say. Let's take a look-see at the trivia:
* None of the characters in this show have a nose. -- How is this inane? It's true and should be noted as it's a very rare style of art. Have you even seen this show? If not, get out please.
*:Noseless characters are very common in animation. Please show a source noting this, to show that this isn't one of those "A fan noticed that the shirts are orange!" kind of trivial things. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 23:29, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Not in a trivia section (Wikipedia:Avoid trivia sections in articles). Please source these claims (and ditch the blatantly promotional wording, like "In order to stay true to his vision") then put them in more-relevant sections of the article. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 23:29, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I just sent a message to the user who originally added the unsourced trivia asking him for the sources which I failed to find. I think that "Avoid trivia sections" thing is very overlooked, because almost every article of this type has a list of trivia(Or trivia under a different name like "Similarities" and "Observations"). -- The Norse 00:25, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, we take mediocre writing, but we want brilliant, you know? Trivia sections are useful in incomplete articles, but they shouldn't be something you want to have in the final product. (Not that any article is ever done.) - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 07:49, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trivia 

message: I've noticed that a couple of times now very significant spoilers have appeared on this page and the episodes page.  Last week, somone posted synopses of four upcoming issues.  Today, I've discovered what appear to be significant spoilers in the character descriptions, particularly the background on Kanelito.  I'd like to ask whomever is maintaining the article to keep a closer watch on major spoilers and be prepared to edit them back out until they have appeared in the story.  - User:  Doc W 05:53, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

replies: text: According to the person who added it, from the Oban official forums either directly or indirectly from the creators' mouths. - The Norse (talk) 03:20, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd add the source directly but I'm not that good at using a Wiki, there's a link that says something like the Creator's Answers which is where the information is from.  Like I said, if I could I would link to the trivia, not sure how though.--71.90.88.234 (talk) 17:32, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Voice actors 

message: Does anyone know what dub studio dubbed Oban in English? I know that it was recorded in Airwaves Sound Design in Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada, but that's all I know. Can anyone tell me who dubbed it? I thought it was Ocean Group because many of the voice actors like Paul Dobson and Kirby Morrow are from that company? HELP! T.T

thread_title:  Question about English dub 

message: I edited Ning and Skun's profile which stated they were sisters. The entire series never implies they are sisters and neither is it written in the OBS official artbook. Yeitman wrote that they are close like lovers. Nowhere in the artbook or series is it stated they are related.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.89.205.33 (talk) 16:36, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ning and Skun sisters? where did that come from. 

message: The first paragraph of the article reads as "Originally produced as a short movie titled Molly, Star-Racer and a spin-off of Lucasfilm's Star Wars franchise (the only Anime-influenced show not produced by the company)"
I haven't heard this before and there isn't a citation, so I searched for a bit for one and couldn't find anything. Does anybody know where the source from this came from? HuneyTheB (talk) 21:27, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
