Talk:The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (novel)/Archive 3

message: I thin kthat for the series, direct translations for names, and such, we should leave in eastern order, but for the translations for the episode titles, should we change it to western order?  After all, we do have Haruhi's name in GN/SN order (I think that's how you abbreviate it. >_>;). Mekryd 15:42, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the Japanese themselves  write the names in western order I don't see why we shouldn't, especially since it is policy to do so. Shiroi Hane 12:23, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Noticed someone recently added some screenshots from each episode as an addition to the Episodes section. Even though I do find it quite nice. 2 things,
1. There are a lot of images in this articel already and more to come, even if it's not a lot, but by each image added loadingspeed of this article will suffer. 
2. Screenshot from episode 10 I'd call a spoiler. Please change to another image or move the "Spoilers end here." futher down. Koopo 17:47, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: While I do think reasonable considerations should be made when appropriate, technical limitations shouldn't be a reason alone for the inclusion or exclusion of article material. -- Ned Scott 07:43, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

text: Do we have anyone here with dial-up to test on? Also, I used to have dial up, and this page is looking nothing like anything I wouldn't have been used to back then. And let's be honest with ourselves, anyone who's been watching Melancholy OBVIOUSLY has broadband as dial-up can't handle fansubs. --SeizureDog 07:59, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Episode screenshots?

message: Yes, Kengo Sigemura is credited as Kyon in episode 1, but he is a real person that involved in anime production. He is credited as Kyon probably he wants to make some sense of humor, because his work in the anime is somehow similar what Kyon is in episode 1. Leeyc0 00:33, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It might have been more believable that that was Kyon's real name had he been credited among other characters, not real people.Mekryd 01:53, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Kanji of Kengo Sigemura is 重村健吾, and Google test reveals that he is involved in other anime works, and takes the same role as in this anime. (The position is called "Editing (編集)".) But as an fun, in this anime this position is called "Super Editing (超編集)" in the episode 1 ending, but you will see this title is still called "Editing (編集)" in the episode 2+ opening, and Kengo Sigemura is no more credited as Kyon.

message: Shouldn't we change the mention of "The Organization" to "The Agency" so the article correspond better to the a.f.k.-translation of the show? "The Agency" is a bit more spyish. Victor b04 23:09, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: 'The Agency' seems the better in-context translation than the literal translation 'The Organization'. But it should be mentioned what the literal translation is. --Barberio 17:29, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Since it seems to be more of a trivia piece than actually information about the series itself, I have moved the Series Setting section of the article to List of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya episodes in the Trivia section.--Juhachi 18:16, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
