I found you, now hope wiki won't delete this comment. --terikera 14:35, 25 December 2006

Some concerns have arisen over the content of the wiki entry. I'll just say it here—this information is posted with my permission! :D No worries. I have no stalkers (that I know of). --Chacharu 07:29, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

• If you see something missing from your filmography leave a note here on the talk page and I'll add it to the main page (after a quick fact-checking). --six.oh.six 00:32, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Understood. Hopefully when I get some more work I will have something new to poke you and make you add. :D --Chacharu 06:26, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Added a request for citations regarding the commentary tracks for ADV's Azumanga Daioh releases. I'm not aware of any planned commentary for the discs, nor do any tracks of any sort appear in the released versions, which makes it odd that Mandy Clark was fired for not participating. Since no track of any sort featuring any of the dub production crew or actors/actresses appears, she would appear to have been the only one scheduled to do ANY commentary at all. This is at the very least at variance with every other ADV dub commentary track for other anime. If no citation is provided, these claims should be removed.

It's vandalism. (This is Mandy Clark). I was not fired and I wasn't slated to do any commentary for Azumanga. I left ADV prematurely near the end of Chrono Crusade -- the only thing I was unable to record was the last volume and they had to re-cast my role for it. I wasn't fired, I had to go on indefinite hiatus. I don't know if it's against Wikipedia rules for me to remove it myself, but I'm going to remove it for now. I'm not sure who posted it -- I'm fairly certain no one I worked with would have come here to say anything like that. I've talked with many of my former co-workers since my leaving and I haven't heard anything to this nature. Perhaps someone who came along later misunderstood and wanted to put in their two cents -- or perhaps someone's just out to be a jerk. :) Either way, the claims are unfounded. --Chacharu (talk) 19:36, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

By the way... the Azumanga DVDs were all released (and in my living room) before I ever left ADV. I recorded another show after Azumanga came out. Where was this commentary supposed to go -- some kind of bonus DVD that never existed? I wouldn't have missed an Azumanga commentary. I actually was desperate to do a commentary before I left, but I never got my chance to do one. :) This leads me to believe that whoever vandalized my page is just an anti-fan who doesn't like me rather than someone I actually worked with. Because I have been called and e-mailed about the untruths in this article, I have made a note of the vandalism in hopes that anyone who saw it from July to October knows that the information they may have seen was false. --Chacharu (talk) 19:52, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I was pretty suspicious about the claims made as soon as I read that bit about the commentary track. As a bit of a fanboy about dubs in general and Azumanga Daioh in particular (else I might never have stumbled across your wiki page in the first place), that didn't sound at all right to me. I was planning to chop those bits from the article if no supporting evidence was provided within a month (the "cititation needed" stuff was just the proper-wiki way of saying "I think you're full of it - prove what you're saying!"). I'm probably gonna be keeping an eye on this page for a while, just in case. ANTPogo (talk) 15:15, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

I appreciate it. My ex-roommate sent me a text this morning -- she investigated the other edits that the IP made. Lolicon, memes, 2chan -- it was just a random 4chan member. The really sickening part is that it sat here for 3 months and no one asked me about it. I know a lot of people who saw the article with the edits added and never thought to ask me why I'd never told them something like that. So there could be any number of people out there who don't realize how volatile Wiki can be and might still think I was fired. --Chacharu (talk) 17:44, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Okay, apparently we were mistaken. >.< We tripped over the IPs. Whoever made the edits was from Houston and it was the only edit they ever made. I still insist that it couldn't actually be someone from ADV. I was never fired. I believe I would have gotten at least one phone call if I had been a) slated for commentary; b) fired; c) cost the company a bunch of money; d) all of the above. Don't you? If, for some reason, that turned out to be true, someone would have really had to drop the ball if I didn't find out until almost 3 years later. Especially considering that I've hung out with co-workers and former directors several times since then. Really, if this is someone's idea of professionalism, it falls flat. --Chacharu (talk) 18:27, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

It looks like someone reverted this article back to a previous version you wrote. On the upside, it's definitely a version without the vandalism, but on the other hand it also doesn't have the explanation for what happened to the article in regards to those BS accusations. Since I'm still mostly a wikipedia noob, I'm not sure what the proper procedure would be for making people aware that your article was sitting around in a vandalized state for three months. I'm gonna ask around to see if there's a wiki-approved way to do that, so it doesn't get erased by other editors again or something. ANTPogo (talk) 14:35, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
