Talk:YuYu Hakusho

message: This should not belong in the folklore section.  It's an anime, not a part of Japanese mythology.
  Well, it does have some Japanese mythology into it, like in the Dark Tournament, 
  where they face off against the "Myth-Begotten Manglers".  
  Also, Yu Yu Hakusho deals with the Youki based off Japanese myth.  
  I think it is fine the way it is.

message: I tried to add the categories 'Anime' and 'Manga' to this article, but something screwed up and almost all of the article was lost. Thankfully, someone or something reverted it almost immediately back to the last version. Can someone who knows what they're doing add these categories?

message: I think Shigure, when fought and killed by Hiei was resurrected by the machines of Mukuro. Both Hiei and Shigure were resurrected because their duel is considered a draw; that's why he have the stitches in his face during the tournament. Elyu 4:02, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

message: YYH draws much of its story from traditional japanese mythology, from Yukina (an obvious yuki-onna) to Kurama (kitsune and Inari), and even parodies japanese fairytales during the Dark Tournament. There should be a section acknowledging this. BethEnd 16:08, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Mythology

message: I've more or less edited the Characters section of the article, but feel free to make another pass at it, since I'm a bit tired and rather cranky at the moment. I also plan to remove all related spoilers from the general Character section; visitors with only a passing knowledge of YYH and wanting to know more about the series might not like reading the spoilers right from the start. I'll be removing all spoilers in the Characters section and moving them to their respective Character pages (and will probably start editing those as well). Also, regarding the Kurama paragraph: I'll be taking down the Kurama trivia (the one where the Filipino producers mistook him for a woman) and moving it to a Trivia section, or (more probably) relocate it to Kurama's main character page as a trivia blurb. Comment if you feel that I shouldn't. Mirshariff 09:40, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Character Section Clean-up

message: Yuu Yuu Hakusho was a manga first, thus the manga should be mentioned first, then the anime, then the importation of it to the US, however this article is jumbled, and I can't figure ot the dates within the article space for when the manga, anime, and dub were made. Please someone who knows this clean it up and put it at the top of the article without me having to go to the info box... and if you happen to know the order in which Togashi created his manga, that would be useful on his article space too. Thanks. --Hitsuji Kinno 02:29, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Character Name Dubbing Issues 

message: An issue in the YuYu Hakusho articles that must be discussed now is what to do before AfD's show up. As such, I suggest we discuss what to do with all of the articles. My suggestion for characters is to merge all the ones that are clearly notable into something like List of YuYu Hakusho characters, like Sakyo, Toguro Brothers, and even the main characters. Rather than tell you every detail, we should only mention the most important details, like their co,bat style and any major moves (Spirit Gun, Black Dragon, for example). The video games, unless one is GA-status, should be merged to something like List of YuYu Hakusho video games. Merge card games to main article. Merge movies to something like List of YuYu Hakusho movies. Something must be done before AfD's come up. Artist Formerly Known As Whocares (talk) 21:47, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Techniques

message: User:Sesshomaru reverted a quite long edit by an anon but gave no edit summary explanation so I put it back in asking for some good manners to be shown to the editor concerned ... the rather predicatable response was "Rv unsourced nonsense by Abtract". Now I have no idea whether the edit concerned was a genuine desire to improve tha article or someone just having fun (either way good manners are appropriate) which is why I am posting here. Can anyone support these edits or is it nonsense as claimed? Perhaps the editor concerned would care to comment. Abtract (talk) 21:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You asked for an edit summary, you got it. The anon's inclusion of data, as well yours, violated WP:Original research and WP:Verifiability. Abtract, any information added to Wikipedia must be supported by reliable sources, or else it can be removed. Thought you would be aware of such policies by now. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:58, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Unsourced material happens all the time ... I don't condone it but let's be realistic. I suggest you take a close look at Majin Boo Saga, an article you visit frequently, if you want to see unsourced material ... there are no third party references, just the manga itself. My objection is to the way you simply shrugged off what appeared to be a genuinely good faith edit without even the curtesy of an edit summary.  I suppose it didn't occur to you to bring it here to the talk page? Your somewhat inappropriate edit summary and response (above) to me is what I have come to expect but please by kind to newcomers.

thread_title: Inappropriate edit summary

message: Following the discussion above, I decided to place a series of "fact" and "unreferenced" tags in the most uncited sections of this very poorly referenced article. This was reverted once on technical grounds (I put the tags at the section headers which seemed a good idea to me but apparently is "against multiple guidelines" though which ones wasn't mentioned. So I put tags in more innocuous positions, sadly this also was reverted in a manner that I can only describe as vandalism since it was by the editor who above remarked "Feel free and (sic) remove whatever sections violate policy". Sadly there has been no discussion, just a series of commands and threats on my talk page. Abtract (talk) 00:43, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No one disagrees that the page needs work; that's why AnmaFinotera added the tags to the top of the article. But those tags at the top make all fact tags in the article redundant. Instead of fighting childishly over the tags, go find some sources. At the moment, you're just being disruptive, and not helping improve the page at all. Doceirias (talk) 00:56, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: And those who are removing the tags are improving the article? I put individual tags on to make it clear which sections needed work. Please remember that there were no fact tags and hardly any references on this article until I put them on. Abtract (talk) 01:29, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It has been tagged for the work it needs. Your throwing in a ton of fact tags, particularly on sections that do NOT require references like the plot section, is being disruptive and simply edit warring to edit war. The article has already been tagged over all for referencing issues. There is no need to then add fact tags to every last section. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 01:30, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Why doesn't the plot section need a tag? Does it not need references? It may be complete garbage for all I know. Abtract (talk) 01:34, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur with Doceirias and AnmaFinotera. Abtract, your behaviour is particularly disruptive. It is much more helpful to actually add sources other than a horde of fact tags. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 01:35, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

text: The overwhelming consensus on Wikipedia is that a plot summary does NOT need a reference. Its de facto reference is the work itself. Feel free to ask WP:RS, WP:V, etc. but the answer is always the same: no refs are needed for a plot summary of a fictional work. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 01:37, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Keiko, Botan, Koenma, and Yukina are placed under main characters in the yu yu Hakusho character list right! I think Keiko, Botan, Koenma, and Yukina should have their own long pages about them--like the ones made for Yusuke, Kazuma, Kurama, Hiei, and Genki. The reason is they are too main characters RIGHT?!?!. I think this change would be awesome for the Yu Yu Hakusho article. It will also give the fans of these characters a oppertunity to look and understand about their favorite characters. 
THIS WOULD BE A AWESOME CHANGE!!!

thread_title:  Bot report : Found duplicate references ! 

message: It bothers me that although there are serious differences between the anime and manga, they are only mentioned under plot.  There are significant differences in the characters' backgrounds when comparing the anime with the background, for example, Mukuro is not abandoned by her parents in the manga but actually genetically modified and abused by her own father. It should also be mentioned in the article that the fights in the tournament go into far less detail in the manga and some events clearly do not happen at all. An example of this is Shigure's suicide, he is seen in the latest release of the manga.--SoWhatBigDeal (talk) 22:56, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

These need refs.  The awards most of all, but if there is no ref on "one of the greatest of all time" it needs to be deleted a NPOV. I will try to find some this week but help would be appreciated. StryyderG 19:46, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Yu Yu Hakusho starts off with a Captain Tsubasa reference. It starts with the main character saving a boy from being run over after chasing a ball into the street, when the boy would have miraculously survived the impact anyway. Captain Tsukasa starts with a boy running into a street chasing a ball, being hit by a car, yet miraculously surviving thanks to the ball's softening of the impact. So in a way, YYH is an AU fic for Captain Tsubasa.

thread_title:  Captain Tsukasa reference 

message: I was looking through the Bangsian Fantasy genre again, and have to question how this series fits in there. Other than that there is a Yama (Lord of Death in Hinduism, Buddhism and Chinese Mythology) character, there are no references to historical figures or literary characters that are interacting in the afterlife with the main characters.  Use of Yama is about as notable as putting any old Grim Reaper figure.  It is also in the unsourced section of that article, so I propose it be removed until reviewers and literary experts classify it as such. -AngusWOOF (talk) 18:13, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It is unlikely that you will find a reliable source that will refer to this work as "Bangsian fantasy" that isn't a circular reference. In fact, I think most anime/manga that were placed in this genre was done so on the bases of original research and would not be supported by reliable sources. —Farix (t | c) 19:28, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe the issue sources to the Bangsian fantasy page, actually. The version of the page which existed at the time the category was populated with anime and manga articles described it simply as "the school of fantasy writing that sets the plot wholly or partially in the afterlife", on the basis of which editors (including myself) who were consolidating genre categories put or left a number of series in it. --erachima talk 23:54, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  While there may be a case to group "Afterlife fiction" as with this school professor's page list   the Bangsian Fantasy category is more restrictive, and shouldn't apply to this article. -AngusWOOF (talk) 00:25, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Right. Just noting that Wikipedia's definition of what goes in that category has changed due to article improvement, which explains the odd inclusions. --erachima talk 00:47, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
