Like Father, like Son (2013 film)

Hi. Please see WP:FILMRELEASE - we only include the first release and then the first domestic release for a film in the infobox. In this case, the Cannes release and then the first release in Japan. As it is not an American film, the US release date is not added. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 07:47, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you -- I was unaware of that policy. I agree with your resulting edit. Thank you for pointing that out. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 08:18, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Darksaber

Don't mean to interrupt anything. You have anything to help me out over at the Mandalorian talk page for the Darksaber? It's impossible to talk sense into these guys. Any help would be appreciated. --Bold Clone 19:28, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for popping back in, man. I appreciate the clarity and feedback. :) --Bold Clone 19:41, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Revert edit on Babymetal

Hi GimmeChoco44, thank you for your feedback on my edit of the Babymetal article. I consider the events leading to the world tour to be more relevant to the timeline section, but I'm happy to rephrase and move to the reception section if you felt strongly enough to revert. I'm not sure what you mean by simpler form though; the text is quite terse and reference-heavy as it is. What did you have in mind / would suggest instead? Thanks Tpapastylianou (talk) 19:30, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Any parts with "likely prompted in part by" or "Some publications consider" is subjective and doesn't meet the encyclopedic standard. You also don't need more than 2 citations unless you're presenting evidence of contrasting points of view, in which case you need to cite them separately and not all bundled together. Other fact-based elements, such as "this was the band's first ever show booked for outside Asia", need to be presented with a minimum of context without subjective interpretation. While the detailed information may be worthwhile to a dedicated fan of the group, the information has to be essential and not add undue weight to the overall article. ref: WP:UNDUE GimmeChoco44 (talk) 00:08, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

what decides genre of a band?

Why is X Japan a rock band and not a Heavy metal band? Besides the wiki pages of their songs/albums also mention them as Japanese metal/heavy metal band... please answer. 5y6tjapan (talk) 12:08, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The topic was addressed on the Talk page in 2012 and 2019. Consensus is the main genre is rock. All recent media articles from reputable media (ex: Billboard) list the band's genre as rock. Please read the talk page discussions and you can submit current citations there if you feel a change to the main genre is warranted. --GimmeChoco44 (talk) 21:30, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

About plurals for bands

Dear fellow editor, regarding the use of a collective name for the Japanese band Show-Ya, apparently the use of plurals applied to bands is common in British English. The topic was debated many times on Wikipedia and the use of the plural is considered correct. For example, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Plurals and the following discussions: Talk:Talking_Heads#American band, American grammar and Talk:Eagles_(band)/Archive_2#Singluar or plural articles. Lewismaster (talk) 23:27, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note, Lewismaster. I'd ask you to refer to American publications like Rolling Stone. In this example from August 2021, the band Aerosmith is positioned as a singular noun with a singular verb. "Aerosmith is part of UMG's partnership with YouTube..."

I appreciate the MOS re: plurals but I don't think it offers a clear decision re band names. --GimmeChoco44 (talk)

I'm sorry, but I think you touched a point not clearly defined or you need to take the long task of changing plurals on many band articles on Wikipedia. Rolling Stone may have its policy for names, but on Wikipedia plural is used for many bands. See The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Aerosmith, Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and so on. Maybe a RfC to clear up the matter and modify the MOS would be appropriate. Lewismaster (talk) 07:58, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You can find here a few discussions where the topic was addressed: [1][2][3][4][5][6] Lewismaster (talk) 08:49, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Lewismaster for the links to previous discussions. I don't think either interpretation has been identified as definitive. However, in the interest of avoiding prolonged back and forth, I won't oppose the edit on Show-ya's page if you decide to revert it back to plural. Thank you for a (rare) friendly debate. --GimmeChoco44 (talk) 10:21, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the rest of the article uses the plural. Instead of changing it in the whole article, I think that I will revert your change and keep the rest as it is. Thank you. Lewismaster (talk) 16:45, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ai o Komete Hanataba o

Hello. I created this page for editor consensus. As I asked you earlier, why do you keep holding on to the previous translation? You ask me for a source but the previous one is unsourced as well. Why have you never deleted those translations if you do not want any unsourced information on Wikipedia? That is the part of your argument that I don't understand the most. --Yashi7090 (talk) 22:40, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Yashi7090: Your latest edit is exactly what we needed, since the citation is from the artist website. This type of correction will avoid further back and forth. When it comes to translations of titles, especially when you add a parenthetical section for interpretation purposes, we set the article up for further debate if/when another editor claiming to be a native Japanese speaker has a different opinion. Now that you have an official source, I don't think any further debate is needed. --GimmeChoco44 (talk) 03:11, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you answered my question, "Why have you never deleted the previous translations?" Clarify the thinking that underlies your actions. Is it prohibited to correct any translation mistakes without a source? What if there is no official English translation at all (which is quite possible)? Most translations on Wikipedia are unsourced. Do you give priority to the first translator's translation for no reason? Because that is what you did. And why do you do that? Should every translation on Wikipedia without sources be deleted, or never be edited without a source? You need to "set the article up for further debate"? How does that work if one of you does not understand Japanese? There is an apparent omission in the phrase "Ai o Komete Hanataba o". On this particular article, yes, I agree that there is no need for any further debate, but I am simply concerned about your future actions regarding translations. Please explain why you kept the previous "unsourced" translations without deleting them. --Yashi7090 (talk) 03:59, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Todd McFarlane

Hi. Regarding this edit, are you citing the price guide as the source, or that webpage that describes it, which is in your citation? Nightscream (talk) 22:45, 3 November 2022 (UTC)q[reply]

For that particular citation, I'm citing the actual printed price guide book and a specific page. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 00:53, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What's the issue with some of the comics ? I get if it's too much but a few things connected like year one is connected to Priest run or unholy Angela275 (talk) 23:19, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Listing every series is way too much. That section should be limited to major long-term runs, not separate mini-series. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 04:55, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Acky Bright

Hi, I had to remove your Acky Bright additions from the Anime NYC page as they were uncited. If you can find a non-primary and reliable source you can re-add it to the page. Or because animecons.com doesn't report them as a guest for either year, you might want to submit an update to the site with any sources you have. They're the de facto anime convention information site for guest lists. Esw01407 (talk) 01:31, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure - to avoid every guest on the table having a separate citation, I added the official Anime NYC website pages with guest list for each year. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 04:46, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reservoir Dogs

I'm sorry, but how was my edit to Reservoir Dogs any more subjective than the text that had already existed? I'm pretty sure the sources that already existed are also sufficient for what I added, though perhaps I should re-examine them to be sure. Kurtis ^(talk) 13:55, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To call the film a "masterpiece" would require more than one substantial source which uses that exact label, otherwise it falls under WP:NOR. The archived citation does not include this reference. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 18:15, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
