Untitled[edit]

Both links announcing disbandment are not functioning. Just informing and wanting to reach a consensus on removing them; perhaps you're more informed on the matter of function of those links than I am. Other Galaxy 20:41, 5 September 2006 (UTC)OtherGal[reply]

Album/single names[edit]

I know this has come up before on other Japanese artist pages but keeping with them, would it be possible to have the original, that is Japanese name of the album/single before the romaji and translation? Some examples: Glay- Japanese, then romaji, L'arc~en~ciel discography has the romaji, then Japanese. These are only some major band pages but if you follow the links from the jrock (and possibly jpop page), many of the discographies follow a similar format. If no-one has any objections, how about we fix this page up? ~ Keladry, 12/11/06

I don't have a problem with that. I do have a problem that whoever wrote the article thought that it would be "really sugoi128.114.60.100" if everytime they wrote the name of an album they typeset it with Japanese quotation marks and wrote the name in monospace font (probably because that's the romaji from whatever the unicode page is.) I'm sorry. Not only is it visually annoying to switch font styles, but it is incorrect to use foreign punctuation marks. Just because it's Japanese and you're an "otaku," doesn't make it right. Taco fans don't write: "¿Is there nothing better than tacos?" Also, all the proper nouns should be written in mixed case, since that's how those things are typeset in English. Obey the punctuation and capitalization rules of the language you're writing in. 128.114.60.100 20:44, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, we follow the usual academic conventions of transliterating Japanese titles, which means only the first word is capped in most cases. It is also not incorrect to use foreign punctuation in a foreign phrase. When you mix punctuation and language, as your taco sentence does, then it is incorrect. In any event, I've made the necessary adjustments to the albums list, but still need to do the singles section. MSJapan (talk) 01:05, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ALvino[edit]

is not Jun's solo project. Therefore i have changed it to Jun's Trio project.

This is incorrect, the term solo project does not mean Jun is working on his own or solo, that is called a solo career. Jun doesn't currently have a solo career. A solo project refers when a member of a band, starts a project that is independent of their current band, which could mean another band, i.e. ALvino. They can be in both at the same time, though as with Pierrot the band member's solo projects tore them apart.

NPOV[edit]

Flagged npov for this sentence:

"PIERROT was one of the oldest bands still around in 2005 in the Jrock scene. They started off like any other decent visual kei band and made their major label debut in September, 1998 with the single Kuria Sukai (CLEAR SKY クリア・スカイ).
