Hello Eiga-Kevin2, just wanna thank you for your work expanding the old kaiju articles such as Godzilla and the like. Considering how adept you are at this, I have a proposition for you. I have been working on a couple of articles on some of the kaiju and wanted to see if you are interested in expanding them with me. The first one I am working on so far is on Varan (via my separate userspace drafts), which is getting closer to completion but I think you could assist in that one. My goal is to get that and several other kaiju articles up to GA status or at least up to my standards of a well-rounded article. just feel free to send me a message on my talk page if you are interested.Paleface Jack (talk)02:53, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Paleface Jack: Certainly! I would love to help you make this pages GA, I'll get started fixing up the kaiju pages with you at your suggestion when I have the time.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)04:29, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. I had some ideas for Varan, such as the missing citations and whatnot there are some sources listed on the Japanese wiki of Varan the Unbelievable which I have been trying to gather. You seem to have a lot more access to resources than I do, whereas I am building them from scratch (making a massive list of literary sources on Kaiju).Paleface Jack (talk)15:30, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, its looking good so far! I've been collecting books for over a year now (I've already got publications like Ryfle's books, Ragone's book on Tsuburaya, Famous Monsters of Filmland issues, and Behind the Kaiju Curtain if you want more info from them referenced) and with help from my Japanese friend on Discord, we may be able to check, translate and reference more Japanese sources on your revision page.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)20:43, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

sounds good. you can always add information that you find that is not there and I will check it out and make sure its all up to snuff. I am pretty specific with my writing, being a writer and all.Paleface Jack (talk)02:17, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The revision looks great and almost complete IMO, what do you want to move onto next? Because I'd personally like to collaborate with you on (and put my best work into) fixing up the kaiju at the top of the view chain: theGodzilla,Rodan,Mothra, andKing Ghidorah articles (in that order). (Also, I can't find Varan even mentioned inBehind the Kaiju Curtain.)Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)05:27, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well before we go about to the next project. I still am looking at finding sources to cite the video game appearances and the toy releases. I have also been looking at theJapanese wikipiedia entry of the first film which gives some additional literary sources, and also looking atToho Kingdom's entry on Varan which tells of additional literary sources in their background and trivia section (thats how I found out about the poisonous spines ability). I got everything from the Japanese Wikipiedia entry all transferred and the above mentions issues are pretty much all that is needed to be done. After that I have another userspace draft where I have been working on Megalon so that will be the next one.Paleface Jack (talk)19:12, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really great at citing video games and toys either sorry, as there are only a few reliable sources for those. However, I do find theGodzilla Store is a nice reliable source which we could cite. In the meantime, I'll keep trying to find other reliable sources online and will either post them here or add them to the Varan revision.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)20:43, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In case you are curious, here is the link to the japanese article:https://ja-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/?_x_tr_sl=ja&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_hist=true#%E3%80%8E%E3%82%B4%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A9%E5%AF%BE%E3%83%A1%E3%82%AC%E3%83%AD%E3%80%8F%E3%81%AE%E3%83%A1%E3%82%AC%E3%83%ADPaleface Jack (talk)15:26, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's okay. I am not good at those kinds of sources either. My experience working on theLeatherface article for over a year kind helped a little bit. My best bet for the video games is either revies or the game manual though those can be pretty tricky to track down. I consider this sort of a learning experance considering these characters are all Japanese so research into reliable sources can be a little tricky.--Paleface Jack (talk)21:49, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

K. Do, you think we should add all the details to the page now? It all looks fine to me, expect I think an image like this one ofKen Kuronuma and Nakajima shaking hands instead of your proposed concept art file in the "Development and design" section.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)03:49, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

When I get enough energy I will transfer it, I have a number of images I think work well.--Paleface Jack (talk)22:44, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe a behind-the-scenes photo of the design. I will leave that up to you.--Paleface Jack (talk)23:18, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I'll add one or two soon.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)23:20, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article is looking good. i made some minor adjustments. (the first image and the one on the flying prop are the best). For the Megalon article its gonna be a little tricky cause he is featured so extensively in video games and the like. Megalon also has a pretty big power set so we will see how that all comes together. I will start looking at the japanese wikipiedia version of Godzilla vs. Megalon, those versions of the english article always seem to be a wealth of potential sources in addition to wikizilla with some of the sources they cite.Paleface Jack (talk)15:11, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, Wikizilla would probably be the most useful for all that info IMO. I've been an editor on that site for a while as well and could ask some of my fellow collaborators for some help on this Megalon page if we need it. In the mean time, I may be fixing up your revision of the page all of today.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)21:00, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

sounds good. I was doing bits here and there when my work breaks allowed me to. Thursday will be more major edits for me so I will do some revisions up till and try to find some way of citing those pesky video games that were only released in Japan. Then see about working on Megalon.Paleface Jack (talk)04:37, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RoySmith(talk)00:02, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Kevin, just wanted to give you a heads up and let you know that I have been working on the Megalon article a lot lately. Still needs a lot of work but its really shaping up. Anyways I saw you recently been editing an article on theRhedosaurus and I can help work on that article to some capacity. I have been thinking on the article for Godzilla and just the VAST scope of it, and was contemplating various ideas on how I would ever tackle it (I don't want it to turn into another Leatherface article cause that one took several years on and off). Anyways keep up the good work!Paleface Jack (talk)16:20, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just a little small update, I did a brief literary search for sources to add to the Rhedosaurus article and found about 32 different books that can possibly be cited. I might add these into the article today or this week so I will keep you posted.Paleface Jack (talk)18:37, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. sounds great! I've got a lot on my plate at the moment, but will help you out with the Megalon revision when I have the time. As for Rhedo's page please feel free to add whatever reliable sources you'd like in the meantime, I'll also do a bit of work on that when I've got the time this week and hopfully we can move onto Godzilla's page once we are both happy with what's on those pages.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)21:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No worries my friend. I have a lot of projects and stuff like that too so I have been splicing my time and whatnot. As for old Rhedo, wording is needing to be fine tuned with the bolder clames like him being the most influential monster (he is one of them). My best advice on how to structure character articles is looking at others, I had to take inspiration and note on the whole citation and writing structure for my Leatherface article which is still waiting for GA review but you can take a look at that one if you are trying to figure out character article structure. I took the courtesy of taking the Rhedo article and putting it into the Varan userspace for further tuning. As for Megalon, it seems to be a bit bigger than I thought it would be so I might take a breather from that to think about how to go about finishing it.Paleface Jack (talk)03:51, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding these edits[1], there's some misinterpretation. I checked the Ryfle/Godziszewski source andthis is the original source that they're citing. Only one journalist is saying this, so it doesn't belong in the lead since this is not the general consensus. Also, the writer is talking aboutGodzilla, King of the Monsters!, notGodzilla (1954 film). I already added the material to the former article, see Legacy section.Armegon (talk)17:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's possible?This is the edit I made to G-1.0 today. The conflict editing thing happens, if I understand it correctly, when two editors are either editing the article at the same time or trying to save their edits coincidentally at the same time.

I did want to clarify a few things with you regarding the nom:

1. Could you clarify what else needs to be done? If it's most of what Nineteen Ninety-Four Guy suggested, I'll see what I can do, but I would appreciate some extra clarification on if there's any other gripes you yourself had with it.
2. Could I run the article by you again once I've done some more work on it? I'm not sure how much more I'll find, but if I feel it's sufficient for a re-nom, I'd appreciate having an extra once over to make sure everything's covered well enough.

Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)19:58, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, here's what else I think needs to be done: The page needs more: credits in the infobox (suggest you take those from theJapanese Wikipedia as you did with the bit about the Pokémon Festival), and some sentences need to be rewritten (e.g. "The English adaptation was produced by 4Kids Entertainment and distributed by Miramax Films and was released in the United States on May 16, 2003" & "received primarily negative reviews from critics, earning a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 19%"). I recommend changing the Reception section to just for critical reviews, making the release and box office part its own, and moving the references and Festival details to a post-release section or something like that. Lead needs a rewrite to mention the voice cast, development stuff, etc. Maybe refer toThe Boy and the Heron to use as a reference for the page formatting. And yes, I can give you some more advice once you think you've fully sorted it out.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)23:54, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eiga-Kevin2 would you suggest putting the references in a sub-heading of Reception, or in its own separate heading? As an unrelated question, how did you find those two sources you managed to find during the review? I'm admittedly not well-versed in searching through archives and the like, so I'd appreciate advice on this if possible.Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)00:08, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm suggesting putting the Pokemon media references in a separate one. Oh and I found those sources by changing the range of time to the year that the film was released, which can be done by accessing Google Search's "Tools" section and selecting dates under "Any time". Sorry if some of what I'm saying is slightly unclear by the way, I'm a bit sleep deprived.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)00:22, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eiga-Kevin2 Thank you for letting me know about this! I genuinely never knew I could do this until now, and this is very helpful. I've found a few more reviews, which I've added to Reception. This should hopefully balance out Nineteen Ninety-Four Guy's undue weight concerns. I've shifted the post-release stuff to a tentatively titled "Legacy" section, though let me know if you feel a different name is better for that.

I'll get to re-wording and adding some more info from the JP article tomorrow. I'll try and do the same search but with the Japanese title tomorrow and see if I can't turn up some more information as well. I will say that I'm not sure how much developmental information will turn up, but I do not think there will be nearly enough to satisfy Nineteen Ninety-Four guy's comments unless I somehow land on some extreme jackpot sources. On top of adding the info to the lead, what other information would you suggest adding to the article in order to help expand this section?Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)03:31, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded the lead with information from the article and re-organized some sentences and their placement. I've added some names to the infobox and expanded a bit with a new source, but the Japanese name search only turned up the one source I added. The Japanese article doesn't have much else I can use in terms of sourcing, I'm afraid, so I think this is the maximum expansion there will be, at least from what I could find. Let me know if anything else needs changing.Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)21:41, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lead looks a bit better, but I'm a bit put off of "The film's title was revealed on January 30th, 2002 in Japan." being the second sentence. Recommend moving that to a be apart of another lead paragraph for production and just having the cast, staff, and short synopsis after the opening sentence perMOS:FILMLEAD. Also, is there anything written online on the film's themes?Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)22:14, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eiga-Kevin2 themes are in music, or themes as in the themes of the story?

Also, how would you suggest including cast? Most of the Japanese main cast isn't verifiable, and only the guests are, while the English leads are verifiable while the guests are not. I'm not quite sure how to go about this.Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)22:25, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm referring to story themes. I'm gonna go ahead and make some edits to the article to help you out if that's ok with you.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)22:29, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. As for themes, I'm afraid I can't find anything on those specifically. Most reviews are just straight reviews, and unfortunately book/scholar coverage for this movie is rather lacking.Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)22:37, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re-organized the lead per your thoughts. I feel it can be cleaned up a bit, and it still needs some more alterations (Such as adding cast), but I wanted to gauge on if anything should be changed here in advance.Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk)22:51, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just did a massive rewrite of the page and lost all my edits because of an edit war. I'm probably gonna go back to make those edits again later but am quite annoyed so I think it'll be best if I take a break from it today sorry.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)00:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, the info was correct and I didn't read anywhere that it was prohibited to add this kind of information.Un Gateaux (talk)20:06, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've had discussions with other users about it before. Since the film is a live-action one with practical actors, generally its cast for dubs in other languages doesn't require a mention in the cast section.MOS:FILMCAST merely suggests using a table for English and Japanese voice actors in the Cast section for pages onanime films. Also, you cited Netflix directly, I would recommend you use a reliable secondary source instead.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)20:34, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for that. I'm not so sure if it should go under 1980s or 1990s on the list either. I think probably 1980s since most sources cite it as a 1985 film, and it was first screened in 1986.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)21:08, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late reply. I didn't personally have access to the article Kurosawa wrote forkinejun onThrone of Blood but I noticedsomeone on the Japanese Wikipedia cited it, which is where I often find these sorts of things. I have some friends who have issues of the magazine too and sometimes ask them for a hand (usually they don't have the exact issues I'm asking for sadly).Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)03:36, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Eiga-Kevin2 thanks for letting me know! i'm currently searching for march 1963 editions to comprehensively sourcehigh and low, and anything to improve the ghibli film articles. i plan to go to an antique market next month where they have had old magazine copies (fromkinejun,eiga fan etc.) on sale before. if there's anything you would like i can search for you too, if your friends have any copies that would help in my search i would likewise be very appreciative!--Plifal (talk)05:00, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I contacted them about it and they haven't found anything on High and Low yet, sorry.

Hello there,I decided to pick up copy editing this article for your GAN. There are a couple places where I had questions or there were 2 equally valid options for what you might have meant when writing the article. If you wouldn't mind checking over those (and making sure I am not adding any factual or other mistakes) that would be greatly appreciated. Also specifically the phrase "national medalist archer" sounds weird to me, any ideas how we can improve it? I will also keep thinking about it.Moritoriko (talk)02:59, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, thanks for undertaking this. You're doing mostly great so far regardless keep up the great work! Here are some things I've noted you seem to be struggling with so to help you out:

1. Happinet was not the distributor, but they aided the film's production and release a lot and thus are credited as a "presenter" alongside its South Korean distributor. Also, it has been cited as anindependent film.

1. The McFarland incident was ordered at the hands of one American but the American military in its entirety was held accountable by the South Korean press

2. The film was released in South Korea and Japan in 2006 but was released in the United States in 2007. Thus, most Western publications listed it among the best of 2007 instead of 2006.

3. In the film, Bae's character is shown to be a famous archer in South Korea and wins a bronze medalEiga-Kevin2 (talk)04:10, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your quick reply!

1. Hmm interesting, I hadn't heard of that before but I know less about movies than you. I will change those sections to reflect what you've said. Did I change anything to make it not be an independent film?

2. I hadn't realized he was a civilian working on base, thanks for that comment. I think it is still appropriate to say he dumped it even if he wasn't the one holding the bucket because it was his order. Commanded feels too strong to me.

3. Gotcha! very clear. I'll add something about the American release date in 2007 so that section makes more sense.

4. we could use "famous top archer in Korea" or if it is appropriate "famous Olympic archer in Korea"

I am not a fan of calling Happinet a financier, what about investor?

Moritoriko (talk)05:27, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yw. Most sources say he "ordered" so I decided to write "commanded" instead as they are both accurate. I'd go with "famous top archer in South Korea" btw and calling them the "investor" sounds fine to me.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)06:20, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I like ordered, lets just stick with that :)

Great for the other two.

As you might see I finished my first pass to the end, hopefully catching all the big spelling mistakes. I'll take a little break and come back with fresh eyes in 2 days. Feel free to address the invisible comments or change anything else.

Moritoriko (talk)07:10, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya,

I wanted to check why you reverted my changes in your last two edits. I am more concerned with the word "vendor" than the change about being nominated and winning. In my usage of English, "vendor" is more of a business to business style word. If you don't like "shopkeeper" please let me know which of these other words you think best fit, "street vendor", "hawker", "peddler", or "street seller".

There are also two more comments in the Filming section to be addressed.

Moritoriko (talk)00:01, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really a fan of using "street" or "shop" to describe his job as he works at a food-stand/snack bar in a park right next to the river. Calling his character a vendor sounds fine to me; also "hawker" is often referring to someone selling merchandise in a street and "peddler" usually refers to a drug dealer.

Will get around to sorting the Filming section next.Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)00:11, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I had imagined based on your use of vendor and other comments that it was one of those movable snack bars, hence my use of street and suggestion of hawker. Does peddler really bring drug dealer to mind for you, oops, i just thought of the old style door to door salesman kind of deal.Moritoriko (talk)00:30, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

what about snack bar attendant?Moritoriko (talk)00:30, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

or snack bar operator (sorry for all the separate messages orz)Moritoriko (talk)00:31, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be better just calling his character a food stand vendor and quite a few sources do so (i.e.[3][4][5][6])Eiga-Kevin2 (talk)00:48, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

food stand vendor works great! it was just stand alone vendor that I thought conveyed the wrong idea :)Moritoriko (talk)00:52, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Eiga-Kevin2, I just wanted to let you know that I haveadded theautopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in thenew pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have beenrequested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload ofnew page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevantWikiProject templates,stub tags,categories, andincoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such asRater andStubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia'score content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become anew page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.
