thread_title: Last revert - why?

message: Excuse me but THe Xbox Ninja Gaiden and DOA do take place in the same universe. And at no point in Ninja Gaiden does Ryu Haybusa die. It has been said numerous times that Ninja Gaiden is a prequel to Dead or Alive 1 so there is no real continuity error. Disregard the Nintendo Ninja Gaidens. I'm going to edit this section, based on information straight from the games.Rayfire 19:00, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Please provide a source for this. The evidence in this case is sufficient in support of the alternate universe. Ryu was literally sliced in half in the ending - how does that qualify as real continuity error? The fellow is dead.-Randall Brackett 19:08, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:Ayane4.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

thread_title:  A picture is needed 

message: Like maybe a cropped version of "I'm a fighter" from DOA5, for example. Possibly also some more illustrations. --194.145.185.229 (talk) 17:14, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs a better picture  

message: Because apparently it's needed to be started, so be it. --Niemti (talk) 10:09, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: to be honest i dont believe its well organized. To many design elements mixed around with story related plot. I suggest making a "concept and design" section while making a "Apearances " section with "Dead or Alive", "Ninja Gaiden" and "other" sub-sections under it to organnize it properly.Lucia Black (talk) 00:49, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The A-class thread 

message: Which will be soon. And then maybe you'll find yourself another obessesion. 
Oh, and there was no "another editor". --Niemti (talk) 17:27, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: No, becuase the design changes were originally made for DOA5 and the text is about this game, while NG just follows the new ("realistic") design. User:AnddoX (not "AnndoX") is indef blocked and thus less than nobody, "Ghost" - we'll see, shall we. And you can go and "save it for a time to put in ANI. it's that simple" anytime. --Niemti (talk) 17:40, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: that makes no sense or rather it's not a strong reason against DOA5 image in the infobox.Lucia Black (talk) 17:45, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: No, because the infobox is not illustrating this section, the section where they talk about the fundamental design changes first implemented in DOA5 (and the image used in the section illustration fits well because it's so similar to the one from DOA4 for a good comparison). Also, try and give me some common decency of using capital letters and proper punctuation marks or either I'll decide you're just disrespectful and I'll stop talking to you anymore (I just remembered I shouldn't even talk to you in first place, because it never ever leads anywhere). --Niemti (talk) 17:51, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: You're not getting me into this. i gave fair warning, that's all. i'm not playing around with incivility. The infobox illustrates the entire article, there's no section where it doesn't. Therefore, DOA5 image is the best to use even if NG3 follows similar trend. Not only that, but that's the series she originates in and has a more prominent role compared to NG series.Lucia Black (talk) 18:01, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The entire article isn't about DOA5, and DOA5 is already used (and so is this very costume, out of literally scores of her costumes at tht point). Btw, Ayane biggest role was actually in DOA3 (which was over a decade ago) and in DOA5 she's just Ryu's Hayate's sidekick (she's literally kneeling for him as he's ordering her around) - in NG3 she's at least independent-ish (and in NG1 it was her bossing Ryu around, to the point of Ryu optionally becoming her "ninja dog"). What you think is "a more prominent role" is actually just a small part of story mode in DOA5 (as just a sidekick), while in NG3RE you can acually play the entire game using her (in addition to her own exclusive campaign). --Niemti (talk) 18:09, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: i'm not looking at one game, i'm looking at an entire series. NG had more "guests" appearance and not much new info. most of her design comes from DOA version too. and most of her appearances are still DOA. So it should be fair to have DOA version of her in infobox.Lucia Black (talk) 18:47, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Whatever "new info"? DOA/NG characters are largely blank, their entire official biographies are two-sentences long. (NG3 actually attempted to humanize Ryu and turn him into a fleshed-out/complicated "unmasked" character, the effects were poor.) Do you even know anything about these games?
