Talk:List of D.Gray-man episodes

message: I’ve always wondered about the English titles, what is the (con)census for them?; when official English titles exist I guess they are used, but before/other than that, are the fansub translations, free translations, or other translations used?
For example, episode 31 is titled “迷子のミランダ” Maigo no Miranda. Previously the English title said “Miranda’s Lost Child” (which rather, as far as I know, should be “ミランダの迷子” Miranda no maigo) and now “Lost Child, Miranda”. If it’s just free translations then a title such as “Miranda the Lost Child” is yet another possibility.
Well, I’m just a bit confused about what’s the rule/census/concensus/norm. A bit of clarity would surely make me grateful.

replies: text: I would guess that whoever edits the article on any given day is probably either using their own personal translation or a translation from a fansub. It's unfortunate, but this is the case with nearly all series that aren't officially licensed or necessarily "reliably" translated. That said, getting the "gist" of the name is more important, rather than worrying about phrasing or synonyms or making a more elegant translation. I would personally translate that as, "The Lost Child, Miranda," but it doesn't really matter, because it means the same thing as, "Miranda, the Lost Child." WtW-Suzaku 11:06, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Who the hell put bye bye Suman on episode 55

message: Should I (or someone) split the episodes into seasons?  I know the anime hasn't been going on for very long, but still, scrolling down 72 episodes with no real form of categorization whatsoever is an eye killer, and the episode list is only going to get longer.  I don't mean splitting the episode page into multiple separate pages like Bleach has done; just doing something like, for example, The Prince of Tennis or Blood+ would be fine.
Just a thought-- Erynne Lasgalen (talk) 02:30, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Is an official source for season divisions available? If so, sounds like a good idea to me. AnmaFinotera (talk) 07:16, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know of any official source, but I think the easiest way to divide the episodes is by opening theme song (e.g. the Blood+ episode list).  That way there'll be three chunks of 20-something episodes each, as well as the ongoing section. Erynne Lasgalen (talk) 04:20, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Seasons?

message: I'm realizing that a few of these episodes are a bit unclear and confusing. At least for me. Especially episode 69 "Invasion", for some reason. It took several tries for me to understand that one. It could be me. I notice a few of them make tense changes. itzjustdrama still new to this (talk) 19:53, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm working on gradually correcting the episode summaries--mainly on improving content relevance, correcting tense shifts, correcting basic spelling/grammar, and deleting random opinions.  It's mainly a matter of keeping it a summary and not making it a blow-by-blow account of the episode. Erynne Lasgalen (talk) 04:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Who took away that thing that informed us of wether an episode was filler (original plot) or canon (telling us what the corresponding manga chapter was) and why?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.241.163.185 (talk) 20:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't belong here. AnmaFinotera (talk) 21:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't see why it shouldn't be here, but anyway, can someone tell me where I might be able to find that info?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.241.173.40 (talk) 21:41, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: We don't put that kind of information in anime episode/chapter articles other than giving a general overview in the introduction if it is not based on the entire body of work. Might check fansites, or ask in an anime forum. AnmaFinotera (talk) 00:07, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

message: I think the list is too long. If two pages, we can add more information.--Frontier95 (talk) 06:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Is it too long? Yes, and it should probably be split, as appropriate, once a final episode sound is known, and an appropriate way of splitting the list determined. Will splitting mean you can add more information? No. The plot summaries are already pushing their limits, and splitting it will not give free reign to make them longer. The only thing splitting will do is make the list more manageable in terms of page size/length. AnmaFinotera (talk) 13:00, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe, we can seperate them to series. As you know, from Episode 52 is the second series. --Frontier95 (talk) 04:33, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Is that where the DVD start being called 2nd Stage? That seems to be our best bet, at the moment. But I don't believe it's the most important issue in the D.Gray-man series of articles or on this page itself. But I guess it would be okay. Itzjustdrama (drama?) 04:39, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Do you think that the list should have two pages?

message: Okay, there has been many edits to this article over the names of the Noah Twins. According to Viz Media, it is actually Jasdevi  and David actually. You and I may disagree with the company, but until they say otherwise, that is that. itzjustdrama (talk) 00:06, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you source that? If you have issues with David, that's something about translation. I'm guessing that is in fact your point, but I'm more worried about you calling Jasdero Jasdevi, since that's the name of em combined and not of one of the twins. --MooNFisH (talk) 16:28, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Nobody seems to have a problem with what Jasdero is called. I meant that they are collectively Jasdevi and one is David, sorry if that was unclear. How would I source? itzjustdrama (talk) 18:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

text: Y'know what? I went over the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (anime- and manga-related articles). And it says, Characters should be identified by their most commonly known name, as per Wikipedia's naming conventions. This may not necessarily be the same as the official name(s). Following that, maybe we should go either Devit or Debitto, making them either Jasdevi or Jasdebi collectively. And them mention VIZ translation underneath. itzjustdrama (talk) 20:01, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For sourcing, pointing to a volume of the manga (perhaps even a specific page) where the name comes up should suffice.  Regarding which name to use, I would say use Viz's translation, because that's what the person who picks up the manga in a retail store would see, but that's only my interpretation of the MOS.  (Admittedly, I don't really care anymore.)  —tc 20:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  DVDs? 

message: The reason I put the number of episodes in the lead was because the featured episodes lists did the same. The same with the themes written in prose form. I believe that should be restored.

replies: text: Not without a source. This proposal has been raised before in regards to other chapter and episode lists, and it's been decided that generally, this information is unsuitable for inclusion without a reference, and even then, it should only be mentioned in the lead IIRC. —Dinoguy1000 18:32, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The Japanese article does have this info, and it fits quite nicely. It's both a counterargument to AnmaFinotera and others who insist such information is unsuitable, and a notice to those seeking this info. --Dr.Koljan (talk) 17:03, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not about whether the info "fits quite nicely", it's about sourcing it reliably - otherwise, it's just a bunch of original research, regardless of how obvious it may seem to you or anyone else. 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 20:16, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
