Talk:Kamen Rider 555

Fansite Necessary?

Was the fansite link at the end simply posted by someone as a self-promotion? Not only is the website currently lacking content, but there are a couple significantly better Faiz fansites in existance. Since this sort of thing is generally frowned upon on Wikipedia, I'm currently removing the link. Please give some feedback, thanks!

Spoilers?

I think that the article has a great deal of unecessary spoilers ATM. If you want to make individual character pages with spoilers, fair enough, but I think that a few things should be left out of the article, such as (err, warning, this list will obviously be huge spoilers);

• Takumi being an Orphenoch
• The Deaths of any significant characters (I would not include the first member of Lucky Clover in this, though, since he died quickly without making a big impact on the plot)
• The posessors of the Delta Gear (it changes hands so much, and only finds a permanent home near the end of the series)
• Any of the events that take place in the last few episodes.
• Members of Lucky Clover beyond the original four. Perhaps include Sawada, since he's in it for quite a while. Still quite spoilery, though.
• Hanagata's wherabouts, etc.

There are probably more, but I can't think of them at the moment. If nobody gives me a good reason not to, I'm going to excise large chunks of the article and rewrite other bits to be less spoiler-ridden and more general. (Darien Shields 22:30, 3 March 2006 (UTC))

I agree. The premise of each character should only be explained, not their final outcome. Perhaps "character deaths" should be made into a separate page ... Kaixaken 15:02, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Greek Letters

I've posted about the Greek letters, but they were removed because "it made no sense". If every Rider is associated with a Greek letter, then the Riotroopers should follow O (omicron). Kaixaken 21:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Orphenoch Merge?

I do not think the Orphenoch article should be merged with this one. I'd hate to wade through all the Orphenoch-related material if I wanted to read about the show. It seems a complete article on its own. Pedant 00:02, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Nothing's going to happen, removing tag per WP:SNOW. Floria L 23:17, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Split character section into list of characters

In an attempt to do some clean up on this page, what would everyone think about splitting off the character section into a "List of Kamen Rider 555 characters"? The amount of information currently in there seems sufficient to stand alone. Of course a shortened list of the main characters would be remain on this page. Any thoughts? (Guyinblack25 22:07, 25 April 2007 (UTC))

Actually, I'm working on several individual character pages, starting with Takumi. Tighten this section up if you like, though. It's pretty gorram long and poorly written in places. Howa0082 00:55, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

The character section has been split into a new article and has been linked in the 555 template and on the main artilce. I tried trimming down the character descriptions to the bear essential info, but I kept all that was originally there in List of Kamen Rider 555 characters article. Any additional information about the characters should be included on the article for the characters instead of the main one. (Guyinblack25 18:19, 23 May 2007 (UTC))

Fair use rationale for Image:Kamen rider faiz ps2.jpg

Image:Kamen rider faiz ps2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:15, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Characters

There's a link to the list. Must we have virtually the entire list on the main article, as well? I'd like to delete it to maybe just a short blurb about how 555 has a large, complex cast featuring many characters whose alligences one can never be completely sure of. Something like that. Because damn, that's a huge mess of character blurbs on this article that we could totally do without. Howa0082 21:41, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Article assessment

I've assessed this article for WP:TV as requested here. I have rated this article as start class of because the lack of important sections like critical response, production etc. and as low importance because there is little to distinguish it from other articles about television series. These categories are subjective and may be reviewed by any member of WP:TV who feels confident to do so.

The lead contains some unsupported assertions i.e. that the program is "famous". The characters section is devoid of info. A short summary of the characters should be included here as another article is linked to with a more comprehensive listing. See Wikipedia:Summary Style for more info.

The episode list should be reformatted using the episode list template and moved to a separate article as it is overlong. The music section is essentially a list of trivia and should be removed or reformatted into prose with commentary on reliable sources discussing the music. Most important though is to start a response section to establish the notability of the show.

Please note that a more formal assessment by other editors is required to achieve good article or featured article status. I used criteria from the television wikiproject guidelines here, article about TV series guidelines here and the assessment guidelines here.--Opark 77 10:16, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Reception

I don't even know where one would look for critical reception on this show. Is there a site with Japanese ratings or reviews or some such? Howa0082 (talk) 17:10, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
