replies: text: Well, the second series is still entitled Saiunkoku Monogatari, so I think the main article name should stay the way it is for now. At least, just until it's over, and when the entire series (First and Second Series) is officially titled as The Story of Saiunkoku (in case the second series is never translated into English; in which case, it would be best to keep the name as is).  For now, I've created links for The Story of Saiunkoku and Story of Saiunkoku, which both redirects here. DarkAngel007 07:28, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was planning to rename the article when the US release has actually shipped.  Not that I expect the announced title to change. P.S.: It's normal practice to add new sections to the bottom of a talk page. — Meersan 16:29, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I Think you should add a redirect page of the name 'Color Cloud Palace' or 'CoulourCloud Palace' (in the animax synopsis page) to this article. I have sufficient evidence that Animax-Asia is using the titleCoulorCloud Palace in their program listing. And across the web, the name 'Color Cloud Palace' is always associated with the story of Saiunkoku. Triadwarfare (talk) 17:01, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Article Name

message: Suggest replacing "Shurei Ko" with "Shurei Hong," since it is the official US translation, as much as it's (legitimately?) despised by the fans.
:"Hong" is the chinese pronunciation of the kanji 紅 "Kou". They have probably chosen this because in Japanese the kanji "red" and "yellow" are both pronounced "Kou" and in English it's impossible to distinguish the two families' names then. I think it's a good idea, but maybe they should have changed the yellow clan's name instead of the main character's one ＾＾；； Minikui 23:42, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I think that's a good idea.  It could go here on the main page. — Meersan 23:18, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

text: If there's only one VA per character, as seems to be the case, it's better to leave them integrated into the character page. --Darkbane talk  02:36, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The magazine that Saiunkoku Monogatari runs in is not aimed at adult women, and  it is not ladies' comics/josei. For more information see the Japanese Kadokawa Beans article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Charmian33 (talk • contribs) 11 July 2007

thread_title:  episode list 

message: Although Geneon/Funimation stripped out the long vowel markers in their R1 version, those remain correct for the original Japanese pronunciations (I assume that's the point of appending the italicized versions to the kanji); likewise, "Kō" is still the official reading in Japan for the G1 "Hong" character/province names. WRT "Ri", I realize that a randomly Googled fan scan is not an ideal reference, but http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/248715 appears to support that as the official Japanese transliteration rather than "Li" (Amazon.co.jp doesn't seem to have internal samples of the artbook available, although I can look from some from smaller vendors if those might still be considered semi-reliable).

replies: text: Correct for the original Japanese names and thanks for fiding those. Got a bit happy on my search release. (though please don't link to fanscanslations, per WP:COPYRIGHT. :) ). There are some folks in the anime/manga problem who can check the romaji versions for accuracy. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 00:46, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The minitokyo image appears to be a straightforward unaltered scan, but I take your meaning :) Meanwhile, in the first paragraph of the "Plot" section, should "Shūrei Kō" remain unchanged? The overall nomenclature in this article is pretty jumbled-- the "Provinces and ruling clans" section uses the alternate transliteration "Kou" with the "Hong" note appended afterward, and then the "Characters" section uses the same "Shurei Hong" as the more detailed character list article, which in turn seems to reuse much of the same text from here in starting out each profile.

replies: text: Doh, yes, the plot should use Shurei Hong. Other than in the character section giving the English/Japanese names, all of the articles should use the English names. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 01:35, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

message: I propose that the media section be split off into a separate list article. 76.66.198.171 (talk) 06:55, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Rv; opposed and tag removed. We do not split entire media sections into separate articles, period. Eventually the light novels should be split into their own article, but it isn't a critical need at the moment at all. The article does not have an issue with size nor is there any valid reason to do any more splitting. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 07:02, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: We do have lists of media Collectionian; however, the article lacks information and structure, including an impact/reception section.陣内Jinnai 03:59, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: We split of specific media, chapters and episodes, not the entire media into one list (or at least they shouldn't, such lists have regularly been remerged with more specific splits made as needed). -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 04:22, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If none of them can stand on their own, but as a whole they are relatively lengthy we, and other wikiprojects, have split them. However, as stated, right now the article doesn't need to be split.陣内Jinnai 04:25, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
