Talk:Negima! Magister Negi Magi/Archive 2

message: Ok guys, I'm running into a bit of trouble. In the last few chapters, a lot of information has been revealed about several characters, and I'm stuck on how exactly to update it... as such, I'm keeping it in here until I can get things in order, ok?
*1. Evangeline at one time possessed all the weaknesses of a vampire. However, as she gained in power, she managed to discard them. In addition, someone else turned her into a vampire - however, she was able to retain her free will.
*2. Misora's shown a magical artifact. While its name is unknown, they're essentially running shoes with a symbol of a wing on them, which enable her to run and jump insane distances. For the time being, I'm calling them 'Hermes's Shoes'.
*3. Setsuna was banished from her own kind for having white wings, which were a sign of bad luck among her people. She was actually picked up by Eishun Konoe, when he left Nagi's group and headed back to Japan. The thing about Eva remarking on Setsuna dyeing her her hair and wearing contacts... Is true, but it's been unverified whether it's true or not.
...Ok, so that's not nearly as much as I thought it would be, but eh. Wakuseino 00:34, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: It could certaintly use some tightening up. Glanicing through, the section most in need of a trim is the timeline section. There's also a fair amount of duplicated information, especially in the character section, which would make sense if the article were split up but currently is unneccessary.

thread_title: Magic in Negima Update

message: I would like to standardize the student portraits by taking scans from the official student register from the first chapter of manga.  This would mean all of the portraits are in the same style and have the same size, and we would be able to add the missing portraits easily.  The disadvantage is that they would all be in black-and-white.  If anyone has any arguments, voice them here, otherwise I will do this when I gain access to a scanner.

thread_title:  Student portraits 

message: I suggest the character section should have it's own page & no the portraits for the students must be in colour. Try using the videogame portraits. MrTerrorist
:I have a matching set of pictures of all the girls (some of them have already been used) but they are all of the Anime character designs and many, myself included, prefer Akamatsu's original designs.  Shiroi Hane 09:07, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that the character section should be a seperate page, but I still think the b/w manga design would be preferable.  It's Akamatsu Ken's work, it makes sense to use Akamatsu Ken's own drawings.  Andrew 05:37, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I realised last night that I do have coloured versions of the mugshots from the register in the manga, although they are rather small. Shiroi Hane 12:29, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Where from?  Andrew 04:47, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: From this binder/folder thing.. don't know it's origin as I got it from Yahoo auctions. Scanned the relevant pages here - I'll do as clean a scan as I can of the individual character images and replace just the images in the article that I either previously uploaded myself or are missing. If we're in agreement then I can replace the others also. Shiroi Hane 20:29, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks like an artbook or fanbook, maybe this one:  http://www.nippon-export.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=15570  I wish we knew for sure if it was official or not, but they are accurately colored character portraits from the manga.  I say go for it.  Andrew 04:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Suggestion 

message: I know the OVA is a prequel but I believe that the order of the animanga infoboxes is supposed to be in chronological order by creation date. That would make the OVA appear after the TV series on the infobox. If that's ok, then I'm going to change it - Squilibob 10:23, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Infobox Order 

message: Since the timeline has been removed twice now and is a sizeable chunk of text, I've created an archive including both version of the timeline for reference purposes. Shiroi Hane 01:26, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Timeline 

message: WP policy is to list no more than one fansite.. I have no personal objuections to more, but I don't see much point in listing all these free forums which make up to bulk of the links at the moment as there is no actual content. While I cannot find any policy for discussion on the matter, I cannot see any relevancy to fanlistings at all. Shiroi Hane 11:28, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I've tidied that up a bit. Are there any good general fansites (not forums) out there that aren't mere mirrors of info from wikipedia? Shiroi Hane 10:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
