message: This says that Dancougar first premiered in Super Robot Wars Compact in 1999, but I'm sure that I used him in Super Robot Wars 4. I'd change it, but my file is missing, so I'd prefer to confirm it first.192.195.230.36 05:55, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  ''Dancougar'' 

message: This was recently added to Space Runaway Ideon, but such details don't really belong there. It probably fits in this article, but I can't tell where:
:The Ideon and aspects of its respective series make appearances in the popular Super Robot Wars series of anime mecha crossover games. It specifically appears in Super Robot Wars F Final, and the recently released Super Robot Wars Alpha 3. In the latter, it is widely considered the deadliest unit in the game. While its Ideon Gauge takes some preparation to raise to full power, the reward for doing this is a devastating attack that can literally wipe out entire maps of enemies in one shot. Due to this, it is often refered to as The Zeorymer of Alpha 3. This is due to the said mech being powerful to the point of unbalance in Super Robot Wars MX.
Hope someone else can figure this out! —Tarnas 04:55, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

message: "Macross (adapted outside Japan as the first part of Robotech)"
This line seems to me to deserve re-phrasing. It suggests that Super Dimensional Fortress Macross is not available outside Japan, which it is. ADV recently took over the license from AnimEigo, and a new box-set has just appeared on the shelves. SDF Macross has even been dubbed for the first time - the first time as SDF Macross that is.

message: I renamed some of the Alpha series of games because of the wrong translation.
Namely, Super Robot Wars Alpha 2-> 2nd Super Robot Wars Alpha  and Super Robot Wars Alpha 3 -> 3rd Super Robot Wars Alpha
:These are not mistakes, unless you think that "World War 2" is an incorrect translation of 第二次世界大戦 (dai-ni ji sekai taisen)
*Translation isn't about being direct, it's about conveying the correct meaning. In English, putting the "2nd" or "3rd" in front of the name itself makes little to no sense. This should probably be changed back for the sake of grammer. But I'd like to get some sort of consensus first. Xenon Zaleo 17:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd support this. Took me a while to even realize there was a SRWA2 page set up because its page uses that construction. ShaleZero 21:22, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Naming 

message: This is indeed a good idea, however there is already a Wiki in progress which will one day be the home to detailed information about the various SRW games. Perhaps it would be advisable to link there instead of bloating the Wikipedia. At the present time it is far from complete, but more information will be added in the future.

message: I think the links in the "see also" section should go to the Banpresto Originals page/category.

message: May I tell that not all people can tell whats real mecha or super mecha. to solve this problem we the people of wikipedia should catergized the show's into there respective genre's and the in game mecha's as well like "Gundam" in Real robot and "Getter Robo" in super Robot. Make sense every one?

replies: text: I can tell you that if you can find an official source catergorizing which robot is real type and which is super type, feel free to add it to wikipedia.  If no source could be found(which is definitely the case right now for quite a lot of years and arguements among fans are heated up on which is which) then per WP:NOR there should be no original research in the article.  Some Banpresto origins can be listed though, SRX team R series are real type and SRX is Super type. (sourced from OG) MythSearchertalk 03:36, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems to be that the link to the original series would be enough to tell if it were Real or Super.  Make sure the RR and SR links are in the article.  If the reader really wants to know, they can read those articles, then check.  Otherwise, I think any reader who would care to know which is Real and which is Super would know enough about to difference to be able to tell on their own. SAMAS 19:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Fan made, SRW type game with featuring charaters from various series produced by the company Type Moon.  Of course it should not be mentioned here, there are dozens of other fan made SRW type games out there, Like the Super Majouko Wars(Super little witches war) and Seiden.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:SRRT Mecha.jpg

message: There is just too much information on this page, and some of it is far too detailed. Some of it is even stated multiple times, like the bit about the English games, which mentioned at the top then mentioned again near the bottom.
We could really use some trimming down, look at the Fire Emblem page, there is just minimal and basic information about the various gameplay features.
As for the English game section on the bottom, should fan translations be even mentioned along with official titles?

message: This article needs screenshots to illustrate the games. Here are my suggestions for screenshots (please note that using a different game for each shot might be desirable):
*Title screen (possibly from the first SRW)
*Map showing multiple units, player and enemy (preferably using the color coding)
*Battle sequence
*Pre/post-stage dialogue (preferably from one of the English OG games)

I will AGF and not further develop the issue about his moving of pages without consensus.

thread_title:  move to "Super Robot Taisen" 

message: Namely A, R, D and J. Here they have all been listed as Advance, Reversal, Destiny and Judgement, yet they have never been refereed to as such in any official form, the Japanese Banpresto website lists them by letter, so does JP Wikipedia. All I've seen are small mentions that have cropped up over the web where the game producers have told us "oh R stands for this" - It might be nice to put a mention on each page that mentions this, but they are not the official names, and from what I can tell, SRWA's "A" does not stand for "Advance" but rather "Another" - so this is a mistake.

thread_title:  [[Compatible Hero Series]] 

message: I am so glad I ejected myself from that "discussion".
The "official English title" doesn't matter, because the link is tenuous at best. A great example of when we should care is Attack on Titan, while a great example of when we shouldn't is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure; not a whole lot of explanation needed on why. This has almost nothing to do with the few localized titles, and everything to do with the product's original name; that name is "スーパーロボット大戦", not "スーパーロボットウォーズ". You will also never find furigana for "ウォーズ", but "たいせん" was once explicitly used for earlier games in the series and is still used for pretty much any other purpose. There's a reason why we keep using "taisen" as a romanization, and that reason needs to be studied; the same goes for every foreign work that is known under a different name elsewhere.
"Super Robot Taisen OG: Divine Wars". There are no real arguments against it; all consist of nonsense used to push the "convenience" agenda, which is deleterious to any fact-based encyclopedia. Treating "original names" above all others will solve this problem, as well as the problem of "nationalism". End of. Despatche (talk) 22:02, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Dude, you weren't being mature at all in the discussion. The official English series title is Super Robot Wars, regardless on what it was known as in Japan. That's like saying we should rename Mega Man to Rock Man or Soulcalibur to Soul Edge. Namcokid47 (talk) 03:03, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
