Zephyrantes: Taking out my old questions. I actually don't know enough to answer this. I just assumed it was Xine since that was the first spelling I encountered

	~~==1.==~~
	I've been editing the anime show topics, but I've been trying to minimize spoilers by adding show/hide boxes in the plot and sorting characters and mecha by their initial faction rather than the faction they would later join, even if a switch happens pretty early. Do you guys actually mind this or would prefer to just blast as much info as possible and compromise the plot to future readers?

	~~===I would rather prefer it that way===~~

	~~A Gundam: I prefer it that way because it looks better and can also avoids spoilers for some of us.~~

	~~==2.==~~
	So it comes to my attention that some titles have been released under multiple names in English and I don't want to cringe by myself and figure out which to decide on as the main article names. So I want to see which title you guys are more familiar with. This also applies to some series that have been given better translated names than the Western distributors themselves...

	~~===Non-standardized mecha titles===~~
	For the really old series that haven't been picked up by subbers and Western distributors and subbers that are minimalists and don't really translate the full title. Stick to romanji or use its literal English translation as the title?

	EDIT: Actually, revising that. The Series Lists should have 3 columns, one with Japanese name (say, ?(????!!)??????~?????? ), one with a translated English name (Change, Shin Getter Robo!! The Last Day Of The World), and one with an official name (Getter Robo Armageddon). With a few series the latter two would be the same, but it would help in a few cases (Godannar, for instance - the title literally translated is "Newlywed/Marriage Combining Godannar" but the English title is the cooler sounding "Marriage of God and Soul Godannar")

	Zephyrantes: That's a tough one. I see way more people use Ryune than Lune, but that's because there's not enough OGs exposure outside Japan. If anything I'd probably go with Ryune based off the noticeable japanese differences in the characters for Lune (??) and Ryune (~~???~~). I also had a very similar cringe moment dealing with Renais/Rune/I-donno Shishioh. If anything just pick one and make sure her other name is pointed out as well.		Zephyrantes: That's a tough one.

	~~===Mobile Suit Gundam Wing or New Mobile Report Gundam Wing===~~
	Did some research and this has been released with both names. Those who are from the states and watched Cartoon Network like me are more familiar with Mobile Suit Gundam Wing while those who may have watched remastered versions may have seen the other title being used. Which one should akurasu use? I'm leaning towards Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, but I don't want my personal bias in there so help me x_x

	~~Mobile Suit: 2~~
	~~<br>New Mobile Report: 1~~


	~~~Mattman324: For the same reason we don't accept "The New Adventures of Gigantor".~~
	~~^Zephyrantes: Luckily Gundam Wing was spared from having its name butchered beyond repair for the most part.~~
	~~A Gundam: I think mobile suit is better to use~~

	~~Romanji (Japanese): 0~~		EDIT: Actually, revising that. The Series Lists should have 3 columns, one with Japanese name (say, ?(????!!)??????~?????? ), one with a translated English name (Change, Shin Getter Robo!! The Last Day Of The World), and one with an official name (Getter Robo Armageddon). With a few series the latter two would be the same, but it would help in a few cases (Godannar, for instance - the title literally translated is "Newlywed/Marriage Combining Godannar" but the English title is the cooler sounding "Marriage of God and Soul Godannar")

	~~English Literal Translation: 0~~

	~~Case by case: 1~~


	~Mattman324: Honestly, it depends on the case and the area where it is. I mean, I've put up Zettai Muteki Raijin-Oh in some areas of the site and Absolutely Invincible Raijin-Oh in others. That said, some things need translation pretty much everywhere (Armored Trooper VOTOMS)
