Clarification
You wrote: ''Completely wrong; it's spelled onii, and it means ogre, not demon. Don't you guys have forums for this kind of thing?'' in your edit summary for Xion. Just to clarify, it is actually spelled "oni", not "onii", and it can mean both "demon" and "ogre". So for future reference; before accusing anyone of being "completely wrong", please make sure that they actually are wrong ^^ --Hecko X 21:16, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it is Oni.


 * However, it means "demon" in a very specialized context - a horned, hideous ogre-like creature with a loincloth, huge teeth, etc. It could possibly be extended to mean the "aggrieved dead" who become Oni's. But it definitely doesn't mean anything like the section was advocating. In English, it would be the medieval, absolutely hideous version of demon. It could not be stretched to mean the attractive demons in modern fiction. And since Xion doesn't have huge tusks and bushy eyebrows, it's very unlikely her name was Oni. Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon  survived intact.  03:32, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

I have moved your comment here for the simple reason of keeping the discussion in the place it originated, as having a conversation over multiple talk-pages is counter-productive to the discussion as a whole, as it makes it hard for other people to follow.

And while I agree that it is unlikely, though not impossible, that her name is Oni (simply on the fact that it seems way too silly to be true), I find your reasoning to be faulty. While it is completely true that the "stereotype" oni, the ones of ancient lore, are the big, horny ogres with tiger loin cloths, giant clubs, and bad hair styles, this has changed to include attractive female versions usually portrayed in manga/anime (I mean, just read the article you linked to yourself). But you are correct in the sense that in ancient folklore, attractive female demons were usually other types of youkai, like yuki-onna, the human forms of kitsune, etc. --Hecko X 07:26, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The first anime there has Lum, who still has horns and behaves viciously. The second anime is talking about human reincarnations, and even has a human "tiger". The third is, again, a possession, not an actual Oni.
 * Lum remains the only pop-culture material that has stretched the depiction of Oni's so far, and that's only for one Oni in the entire species (her family are the traditional type), and she still has the horns. There are countless pop-culture depictions of Oni in the traditional type - Ogremon, for example. At best, someone like Saix could be considered similar to an Oni, but that's still really stretching it. Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon  survived intact.  14:55, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Okay, that's fine. (Sorry, I totally forgot to return your last message. :|)—Urutapu 18:41, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for my bad behavior

 * I'm taking a break for about a month, because I don't feel like working here if I'm going to be attacked for it. Golf lima oscar romeo india oscar uniform sierra  Charlie Hotel Alpha Oscar Sierra!  02:55, 18 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Here. I'm not sure if it was the intent, but it felt very insulting to me to be accused of being lazy and stealing, when what I had done was to use code that I had written myself, and had been asking for others to help me find the information I needed to finish. I just want to focus on other projects for a while. Golf lima oscar romeo india oscar uniform sierra  Charlie Hotel Alpha Oscar Sierra!  13:10, 19 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Please, I'm not asking you guys to apologize. I just want to take a break for a while so I can cool off from this. Golf lima oscar romeo india oscar uniform sierra  Charlie Hotel Alpha Oscar Sierra!  20:57, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

I'll miss you. Hope you have a great life. Amy Cotton 09:05, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

ん
Yes, it's pronounced "m" before Bs, Ps, and Ms, but in revised Hepburn (which seems to be the golden standard on more professional sites, which is why I assume we're going with that), ん is always romanized "n" even in that case.—Urutapu 23:04, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I think, if anything, we should make some sort of MOS-ish page (and perhaps have the nihongo question mark link go to there?) to show our Japanese conventions. We can't go around making special pronunciation notes on every page.—Urutapu 23:25, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Holy shit, that's awesome.—Urutapu 23:35, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Staff/Staves
I looked it up-a staff and stave are pretty much the same thing. The only difference is that a stave is a stick or border and a staff is used for assisting in multiple manners, like fighting, walking and extending reach. So on the staff page stave is used to clarify magic specific staffs and melee specific staffs are classified as hammers. Question me on my talk page if you want to discuss it more.

Can we agree to disagree and just call it Donald's weapons, as he uses other items as well like the axe. unless you have another suggestion. I'm not gonna change it back till we can agree.

Excuse me, but, why are you moving this image all the time? It depicts how it is in KH:358/2 Days. Is something wrong with that?

Dude stop bugging me on the Sky Ruler article. Nobody was even talking to you, so stop being a "troll" (wtf is that anyway??), and leave me alone. I'm already talking to Guardian Soul about this.--Norgizfox 14:36, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Re:358/2 images
Please check my talkpage. Thanks in advance.

Question
Yeah well I usually go to GS for this kind of questions but he's not here, so you're the only one I can think of XD. Question: Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ is the combination of KHIIFM AND Re:Chain of Memories right? So all the pages that say stuff like "This enemy/item/whatever is exclusive to Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+" should be changed to supress the + symbol or should they be left like they are? --Yer mom 23:32, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
