replies: text: The problem with the article is that is bascially just lists. And what compunds it is that it has never been released in English speaking countries, so the ratio of material in Japanese to English is much higher then with most other shows. For starters it would be nice to see if we can translate anything from other languages versions into that article, then we need to add sections on plot, characters, themes and influences.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 23:38, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

text: I think what we need to do is split the article. Into many pieces. We need a characters article, a media article and probably a timeline article too. Getting the massive lists out of the article will make things a lot more manageable. I'll get started on one of these and hopefully somebody else will continue the trend. -  14:08, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: so, this is the next page to have a makeover hmmm?

message: For article section titles, I've replaced all use of "seiyū" with "voice actors" because the latter term is more widely known. I then when on and reworded the main voice actor section and used "voice actor" with a brief explanation of seiyū in the first instance and then use seiyū through the rest of the section.
I'm not sure how touchy some people are about the use of seiyū vs. voice actor, but I figured I should give an explanation for my changes. --TheFarix (Talk) 15:19, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The generally accepted format for Japan-related articles is to use "voice actor" for non-Japanese voice actors, and "seiyū" for Japanese voice actors. This will likely cause someone to revert what you did. --日本穣 Nihonjoe 20:21, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't seen any such "accepted format" in the anime articles I've skimmed through when I was doing the genre categorizing. Both terms are used interchangeably. There is also nothing about which term to use in either WP:MOS-JA or WP:Anime. The closest I can come to is Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles#Think of the reader which advices to avoid using jargon, but when used, should be accompanied by a basic definition. The latter isn't something that is normally done in a heading. --TheFarix (Talk) 22:16, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Wikipedia is a general-purpose encyclopedia.  As such, we should avoid jargon when it is not strictly necessary for precision.  "Voice actor" is a perfectly well understood, accurate, and descriptive term, and is preferable to "seiyū". Nandesuka 22:19, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I was trying to add more info to the infobox when I noticed that some of the info in the infobox seemed to conflict with the info in the Anime section of the article.  I was wondering if anyone knew which was correct?  I really couldn't find much.
: Check the information against the ANN Encyclopedia. However, if you can get the information from the official site, that would be better. --TheFarix (Talk) 01:58, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Infobox Conflict?

message: I think we did quite well cleaning up this article while it was the Anime COTW. The information that was just cluttered up the article was moved to separate pages and we were successful in tighten up the rest. Good job everyone. --TheFarix (Talk) 17:58, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't that germanic title from the TV series be in the article somewhere? 76.66.198.171 (talk) 22:29, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: At least it is in the talk and it is spelled: "Heldensagen vom Kosmosinsel". It sounds pretty dump in the german language but it is the official title in germany.

message: Hey there,
I'm involved in a project designed to build a Memory Alpha-like fan wiki for LOGH called Gineipaedia. Recently i was asked to see if it'd be possible to get us linked from the LOGH article on Wikipedia, the same way MA and similar wikis are linked on their respective series articles.
Having looked at the Wikipedia guidelines on linking to external sites, it seems that the requirement for other wikis is that they have 'a substantial history of stability and a substantial number of editors'. I am not sure if our project qualifies for that or not; we are just about 2 years old now, and we have maybe a dozen regular contributors who have created almost 1100 articles — it's not much compared to MA but it's a niche subject after all. I do believe we are the most active and complete LOGH resource on the Internet though, even including Japanese ones.
In addition to that i am of course involved in the project, so it'd raise conflict-of-interest issues if i added a link myself.
So... i'm just going to drop this here, in the hopes that someone with a more objective view-point can determine whether this is appropriate. If it's not, that's fine of course :) Cheers! Ohkine (talk) 21:49, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what the policy for fan wikis are. I think they are against it, and favor official sources. Check with the Anime and Manga WikiProject. --Harizotoh9 (talk) 05:22, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

message: Was reading Psychohistory_(fictional)#Asimovian_psychohistory_and_similar_concepts_in_other_fiction and it mentions that this concept appears in LOGH. I don't recall it coming up (at least not named 'psychohistory') in the OVA series, is it possible that this appeared in the novels but wasn't adapted?
If it did appear in the OVAs, would anyone happen to know which episode and whereabouts in there (like who mentions it) for confirmational purposes? Ranze (talk) 03:34, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Wen Li's battle strategies (and his hang on history) could be in charge for psychohistory to be linked to LOTGH. Well Wen Li didnt used formula do predict outcoming of battle or a polictical or strategic movement. Instead he used his brain to analyse and compare the issues. Well thats not to far away from normal logical thinking and therefor not really part of the asimovian psychohistory because numbers are not the essential part of the (mental) "calculations". Maybe it is diffrent in the novel, because in the anime it would be not so glorious if Wen Li would be just a math student. Well if i get grab of the novel in my native language i will remember this article. But for the OVA i never noticed asimovian psychohistory or such.
