replies: text: I'm fairly certain the anime was based off of the manga that came before it, but if you can prove it came from a Light Novel series, then by all means, show it.--Juhachi 21:13, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Light Novel

message: I've placed the Japanese names of each episode into the episode section. I presume that the translations are unofficial? If they are, could someone tag it so and change the column header from 'Translation' to 'Unofficial Translation'? -- Remy Suen 10:58, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, I just noticed this section. Those translations are the ones I found at  and as far as I know, they're unoffical. I'll change the column header now.--Juhachi 02:17, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Episode Names

message: Could someone more proficient with wikitags modify the theme song section so that they properly display the Japanese text and accompanying romaji with the Japanese help text? -- Remy Suen 11:18, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Alright, I got the ED theme finished, but I still don't know what the OP theme translates too.--Juhachi 15:29, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  The third post in this forum thread seems to translate it as 'The Girl Caught in a Maze'. Seems like a reasonably believable translation given the opening scene of Nagisa running down the stairs. Of course, sometimes an opening has nothing to do with the actual song, but anyway... -- Remy Suen 17:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I knew it was, "The Girl Caught in ____," I just couldn't figure out the last word. I looked up the kanji for maze, and it fits the kanji given, so it seems to be an accurate translation. I'll go edit the page now.--Juhachi 23:41, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Theme songs

message: I think the next thing that would be easy to tackle would be append a "Voiced by: so-and-so" under each character's description. All the names can just be retrieved from the official site, so that shouldn't be too hard. An episode synopsis similar to the Blood+ article would also be nice in my opinion, can anyone else think of what other material should be added? -- Remy Suen 11:31, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I suppose you could add who voiced the characters, but I'd use the term seiyū since that way it's more prevalent that it hasn't been translated into English yet. All the seiyū's names can be found at Anime News Network, so you'd just have to copy and paste the names, but make sure the names throughout the whole article are consistant - it's currently Given Name - Sur Name and I believe it should stay that way. As for the episode synopsis', I don't see any major reason for it to be there, but you can if you want.--Juhachi 22:29, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll take a look at some other anime articles and check whether the convention is to use seiyū or some other term. -- Remy Suen 23:35, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

text: I guess this also raises the question of just how much more information is needed before we should remove the stub marking on the article? -- Remy Suen 02:31, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, added information on the Characters, Schools and Video game sections would be appreciated since those are all still pretty sparce.--Juhachi 02:59, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Future Efforts 

message: I was thinking that perhaps the article title should be changed to include a ! but have Strawberry Panic redirect to the new title. This is because on Anime News Network, for one, has the title listed with the ! present, so I was just wondering what people thought about this.--Juhachi 22:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the title should be changed as well, the official page doesn't include the exclamation mark in the image or in the HTML code's <title> tag that displays the text at the top of an application's window. -- Remy Suen 23:35, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, I just looked at the Media Works' site on the anime and almost always the title is given with the ! there. Also, the manga has the ! as well, so I'll change it now.--Juhachi 01:32, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Whoops, I totally misinterpreted your statement of including the exclamation mark instead of excluding. However, given your link to MediaWorks, I guess that's the right way to go! -- Remy Suen 01:51, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Title change? 

message: After inserting the Japanese names written in kanji for all the characters, I still could not find the right kanji for the two characters Tamao and Yaya. If someone can please insert the right kanji for their names, it'd be most appreciated. Go here for the character names written in kanji.--Juhachi 03:17, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've made the necessary additions and also changed Momomi's surname from Sayashiki to Kiyashiki. I think ANN is incorrect in this regard if you look closely at the official site's image and compare the hiragana to Nagisa's description. Ki is also a possible pronounciation of 鬼 in "compound kanjis" whereas I've never seen it used as Sa. At around 16:20 in episode seven, Shion also says Kiyashiki. -- Remy Suen 21:01, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kanji needed 

message: I think it should be noted somewhere on the article that the information is essentially purely based on what's reflected in the animation series and not the manga or the light novel (assuming there is one). -- Remy Suen 10:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I suppose that would be a valid point to make, though without any current Manga or Light novel sections as of right now, it may be a bit superficial, at least until those sections get included. Since the Manga and/or Light novel sections haven't been included yet, I would think that readers would assume that most (if not all) of the information comes from the anime. But also if you think about it, most series' share much in commen from the manga that they spawned from. So far, the only difference I know of (since it was told to me) is that the Etoile system in the manga is slightly different; I'm not going to say how if you want to find out yourself by reading it. Other things such as: Plot, Characters, and the Schools are most likely almost exactly like how they were presented in the manga and/or light novels, I would assume. Everything else in the article is either obviously from the anime (Episodes and Theme songs) or not subject to be specific to either (Trivia and External links).--Juhachi 01:03, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have just added a References section that clearly shows the article scope.--Juhachi 04:24, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article Scope 

message: After looking over all the information given on this article, do you think it's finally time to remove the anime/manga stub template at the bottom of the article?--Juhachi 04:13, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think we've got at least decent coverage on each section, so I think it's about time that we removed the stub template. -- Remy Suen 04:28, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
