Miriam edit
Thanks for your note.

I don't know much about this source -- don't know the basis of its information or who it is -- so can't comment right now, although in general Wikipedia prefers publications that have some sort of peer review or journalistic/academic/scholarly standards and generally discourages private websites except for the opinions of notable individuals/organizations. (See WP:RS). Don't have time to look into this source right now. For the time being, why not cite the source in the article, identify whose opinion is being expressed, and perhaps simply say "may be" rather than "most probably is"? We can look into the source involved later. Best, --Shirahadasha 17:12, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

All Roman names had female form to denote female mambers of the family just as Julia is a female form of Julius.--Dojarca 20:53, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Infobox for names
I see that you are editing pages about names. You might like to add an Infobox like the one that User:Hmwith has put on several pages like Zechariah. Just a suggestion! Keep up the good work, Fayenatic london (talk) 18:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Rubel / Louvre in Claymore
Is that information properly sourced on the Japanese Wikipedia? If not, it's original research, and the anon editor was right in deleting it. We can't really use another Wikipedia as a reliable source for such statements - since anyone can edit it. -- Darkbane  talk 11:37, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Alright, thanks. Keep me posted =) I agree that it sounds very plausible, at least, it's just a problem with it being original research. On the other hand, the case for Orsay sounds more solid at the moment ^_^; But I thought there are b-sounds in Katakana. At least, our wiki page lists some. -- Darkbane  talk 12:19, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Ah, okay, I was confused there for a while ^_^;. There's still the problem of the official name. I don't have the Viz manga to check - do they also call him Rubel? -- Darkbane  talk 12:40, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, let's leave it at that for now. I think the article on Claymore characters has a lot more significant problems than this at the moment, seeing as how the bar for content is so low in anime articles. You're aware of the problem with OR and are taking some steps, that's all I wanted from this talk ^_^ and I'm also grateful for it. -- Darkbane  talk 13:36, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Hang in there, we need more people speaking Japanese doing research on these articles :D -- Darkbane  talk 17:39, 24 May 2007 (UTC)


 * In fact, there are no "higher ups" around here. We're all equal editors as far as I understand it =). I don't doubt that it's not invented, it just might be difficult to prove it. But I think that, if you add that "connection" data for the other names that you found, it will lend more credibility to it and will not be challenged as easily.


 * I actually have a similar case in one of my "own" articles, for Cyrano de Bergerac. It's more painfully obvious, but it's somewhat similar to this case. So if the spelling is quite close, I guess it shouldn't be an issue of original research - since stating the blatantly obvious is not original research. -- Darkbane  talk 20:46, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Wellber will probably not be famous enough for that list =) It's barely getting any attention right now, and I am probably one of the very few people who actually like it. Claymore, on the other hand, is sure to end up there eventually ^_^; -- Darkbane  talk 21:27, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Rafaela's fighting style in Claymore
Can you say where you got the info from that Rafaela is offensive rather than defensive? I've not read the manga, but from what I know about her, she seems more likely to be defensive. PS4FA 00:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
