Talk:List of Full Metal Panic! media

replies: text: Yes, I think it should. The main article mentions it briefly, but if we can find the appropriate information, then I don't see why it shouldn't be here. UnfriendlyFire 01:03, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: FMP Overload

message: I'm planning on using the Template:Japanese episode list, but two episode titles in one entry doesn't format really well. Would splitting up the episodes into 1a and 1b work? UnfriendlyFire 04:56, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Full Metal Panic Fumoffu episode list

message: I'm not sure what the thoughts were on keeping the episode guide, but it seems like most series on wiki have an episode guide. Anyway, assuming that it's to be kept, the summaries for The Second Raid episodes are badly written and incomplete, it would help if they could be redone to match the first season. 121.45.189.3 05:49, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  TSR summaries 

message: The list of FMP novels all show release dates for the upcoming English translations by Tokyopop. However, the release dates seem unrealistic, and on top of that the supposed sources (which should verify these dates) at the Tokyopop website don't seem to exist. Awaiting the presentation of a proper source, the dates have been removed for now. If an authorized source contains other release dates, this page should be altered to show the information given by that new source. Jelco.galactaboy 13:47, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As of July 15th, 2007 (the day I updated the release dates) those source pages did exist. Tokyopop has obviously taken those pages down since then (likely because those dates were tentative and not meant for public eyes) but other sites, such as Amazon.com, still list a matching release date for the 2nd book. I believe there was also a site that listed a release for the 3rd book but I'll have to do some searching to find it. Bbobjs 02:11, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The third USA novel release date was posted a few days ago without a source. I added an Amazon.com page including this information to solve the problem. Please include the source yourself next time you update a page. Jelco.galactaboy 15:22, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Album covers are not supported in discographies. This has been long standing practice now and is not in dispute. Pick any random sampling of 50 articles from :Category:Discographies. You will not find a single article in that category that contains album covers. If by some miracle you do find one, it will have only recently been added and the covers will be removed soon. I've removed the album covers again, as this is a clear violation of our guideline and policy. Do not re-add them. Thanks, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:55, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Album covers removed 

message: Does anyone know whether the English names are official or are they just literal translations? Because I've seen quite a few variations on the names. - plau (talk) 17:33, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: After a quick look at the lists for the first two series I would say they are the official english names, none of them seem out of place. I think ADV just did a literal translation. Can't speak for TSR as I've not watched the official version Dandy Sephy (talk) 19:48, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  My main issue is TSR, because I've seen various versions of the titles. As for Full Metal Panic, I'm unsure about Episode 5 (I've seen Whispered - The Ones to Be Whispered), 10 (Run, Run, Run) and 15-17 (The Wind Blows at Home). As for Fumoffu, I'm don't seem to see a problem. - plau (talk) 04:57, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Episode List English Names 

message: The list of manga section doesn't really have much information, should it be removed until more information is added in? It makes the page look very bad. - plau (talk) 11:24, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, the whole page looks bad, and that's ignoring the fact that media lists are discouraged by WP:ANIME (and have been for some time) in favor of episode, chapter, (light) novel, and video game lists and balanced coverage in the main article. In this particular case, the novels should be split out into a separate List of Full Metal Panic! novels (or light novels, if that's what they are), and the manga section should be split out into a List of Full Metal Panic! chapters - both of them should be converted to use , and I can help with them some (assuming I can find the time). The episode list should similarly be split to List of Full Metal Panic! episodes, and the soundtracks should be merged back to the main article (which itself needs lots of work) and cleaned up (User:KrebMarkt can help with this). In all cases, further cleanup is necessary, along with lots of sourcing. 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 19:40, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur. If no one disagrees, I will start moving the episodes. - plau (talk) 03:09, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  I support the move, but 40minutes isn't really time to give people chance to object. If you are going to action something quickly, it's silly to allow people to disgree. Either give them a few hours/days or don't offer the chance to object. Anyway, hopefully this will lead to a proper set of articles (the main article can easily become B class once the required work is complete), unfortunately I can't take a large role in this because I'm already swamped with another set of articles Dandy Sephy (talk) 04:06, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
