message: Since when Wikipedia has to follow other people's rules regarding spoilers? I know it's frustrating for some people, but they need to learn to read where there is a tag stating Spoiler in the articles. Stop blaming other people other than yourself if you get spoiled. If you don't want to be spoiled, then go out with your gf, family, relatives and come back when the spoiler becomes not-spoiler. It's frustrating when you are at other place (Wikipedia), then other people starts coming in and shouting "This is against the rules!", and already defined by Wikipedia, there are a set of rules that are different from the other places. For god sakes, there are a tons of similiar spoilers that came out, and it did not came from Arlong Park only. There are other forums, blog, website out there with said similiar spoilers.

message: Why do I see two other replies when the discussion is over?  :
*I've had Arlong Park on the brain yesturday it seems.
*I live in the UK... It was past 11 O'clock, I wasn't thinking right.  It was late.  I've woken up this morning and remember when a dumb thing I did last night.  (Hell, I don't drink or take drugs otherwise I'd blame it on that).  
*I've been outnumbered and proven wrong on this and to be honest... I don't even though what I was getting at anymore.
*I used Arlong Park when I was meant to be generalising it seems anyway.
*I guess I was shocked how fast it went up, normally we wait until Wednesday, which is the day we all get confirmation we aren't being duped.  We did it last week, why didn't we do it this week?  Probably due to excitement.
So give it a rest everyone and get back to normal. No more discussing it.  i think for everyone's benefit (well mine because I can't figure out why I made a fuss) if we leave it as it is.   Angel Emfrbl 06:34, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Discussion is over

message: I'm just wondering, but it'd be really awesome and convieniet if someone could put all the SBS questions into one page.  Just list each questions by chapter and then anwsers under them.  Only questions that have been mentioned in Wiki is fine by me, feel free to add more if you want.  I just think it'd be a good idea to put all the questions into one page instead of individually looking for them.
:Well its more or less fancruft.  I think if its up on the One Piece wikia its okay... But here.  We have enough pages that are close to 'fancruft'. Angel Emfrbl 06:35, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  SBS questions 

message: A few things to bring up. In light of the more recent chapters, especially with the big revelation in chapter 432 (you can look up spoilers on any big forum), do you think it's safe to say that the Enies Lobby arc, as well as the current main saga, ended with chapter 430? Also, I think the World Government Saga should be renamed to something more fitting like the CP9 arc. It's very obvious that the World Government is going to have more roles later on in the story. If we are going to call these more recent chapters a new arc, the best thing to do is to just refer to it as the Current arc and the Current saga (similarly to what Naruto is doing now) until a definitive plot is revealed.

replies: text: Seconded for the current arc/saga thing, but generaly the Grandline arcs are named after the islands, with the East Blue arcs being named after the antagonist (with the exeption of the Loguetown and Baratie arcs, with followed the Grandline arc naming pattern) so the ending/ending arc would be the Enies Lobby arc. (Justyn 06:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oops, I meant to say changing the name of the saga to "CP9 Saga", not "CP9 arc". Like I said, it's obvious the World Government is going to have more to do with the story in the future. The Splendiferous Gegiford 22:04, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

text: K then, I went ahead and did it. I started a new section here so it can be expanded upon later. The Splendiferous Gegiford 23:54, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Who does this article continue to refer to the "Navy" when they're called marines in the original?  (as can be seen in the English word on their uniforms) Ken Arromdee
: Kaigun = Navy in Japanese - They are called the "Kaigun", NOT "Marines" in the Japanese version. See Navy (One Piece) WhisperToMe 21:49, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You forgot to mention, Marines is some countries way of saying 'Navy'.  Which is why Oda is using it.  Its just not our way of saying 'Navy'.  Angel Emfrbl 09:58, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Every time I visit the One Piece pages on wikipedia the screenshots of the main characters on their pages have been changed again. Is there a reason we can't just find a good screenshot of each of them, and leave them that way? I don't know, it just seems sometimes some of them just aren't very good pictures, or they'll have have pictures that sort of "match" (i.e. came from the same theme song or something like that) but then someone will change half of them for no reason at all. - STAREYe 17:54, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Help for List of One Piece episodes 

message: Okay its been up for I think about 2 months now... Can we solve the suggestion that the Anime adaptions Anime/Manga sections should be merged together into one article? 
Also another problem, our minor characters page is 'oversized again'.  Anyone got any ideas on how to reduce that done in size once more?  I have none myself.  Angel Emfrbl 08:10, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Should there be an article for the differences between the manga and anime? In case there are people who've only seen one of the versions. Conanfan1412 02:56, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sadly, that counts as our own obsevations.  Apparently we can't do that sort of thing.  I know from trying it out once.  We can however link to sites that supply it.  Angel Emfrbl 08:53, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Manga/Anime Differences 

message: It's not even rated. Which is a shame, because it's a great list. But that's not the point. I just thought that we could re-design it, like List of Fullmetal Alchemist episodes (a featured article). As I said in that talkpage, the idea is basiclly the same, only diffrence being the air date.
With a little work, we could make another FA for the Anime and Manga Project (which only has 4 FAs)!

thread_title:  [[One Piece media and release information]] 

message: I'm noticing a lot of use of this Japanese word in One Piece-related articles, which might confuse someone who doesn't know what it means (ie. someone who hasn't seen fansubs).  I think something should be done about that. Danny Lilithborne 03:20, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a meaning to it on the One Piece terms page once, however it was removed due someone (and I agree to some levels) thinking it was uneeded.  But I see your point for someone doesn't know its meaning it is confusing, nakama itself has many meanings even at that.  Its being used in One Piece to mean 'crew' more or less.  If we really want to keep that word, we either need to put it in the One Piece terms page and link every instance of nakama to it so someone can find out what it means... Or just remove it and write 'crewmate'.  Angel Emfrbl 07:47, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: 'Nakama' is used in One Piece to a far deeper meaning than 'crew'.  The word means something like "member of a 'fellowship'" and One Piece heavily emphasises the word as meaning a close relationship (ie. one which is not a business relationship) between a group of people - this is a meaning which far surpasses the word 'crew'. Even as a literal translation, 'crew' isn't an adequate explanation (not even sure 'crew' is one of the literal meanings).  Therian 05:15, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Idea for attack box 

message: I edited the information about the release of One Piece in Germany, because it was not correct. 
The magazin "Banzai!" was published by Carlsen-Verlag but never really showed One Piece for the simple reason that Carlsen was already releasing Mangas.
It just had parts of One Piece Red and One Piece Blue and the original scrap with a slight different story.
If somebody could please paste this link, so if you click on Carlsen-Verlag it leads to the original page, please do so!
