List of Ah! My Goddess episodes (season 1)

Peer review, Previous FLC, Collectonian informed, Dabomb87 informed, Rambo's Revenge informed

Most of my rational can be found on the page of the previous FLC. The list has been copyedited by Malleus Fatuorum (talk · contribs) (informed of FLC) and I have removed the unsourced episode in question. Thanks. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 21:33, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Response to question on my talk page: I don't see a problem with citing the episode, as long as the information is not controversial. Dabomb87 (talk) 21:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Undid the removal and cited the episode. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 21:39, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"The English adaptation is licensed by Media Blasters" - Ok, that leaves the question: Who created the English adaptation?

Well, Media Blasters did. I'm not entirely sure how to reference this fact, so please check the fix I made. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:06, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How about "The anime was licensed for an English adaptation by Media Blasters"? -- Goodraise (talk) 22:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried something else and removed the words "English adaptation" altogether. Hopefully, this solves the problem. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:27, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm anything but an expert on English prose, but that whole sentence just doesn't seem right to me. You're squeezing so much information into it, it reads like it's crying for mercy. -- Goodraise (talk) 22:30, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Third time's a charm. I've split the sentences. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:37, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The ELs don't seem to be relevant to season 1 in particular. Move to Ah! My Goddess? -- Goodraise (talk) 21:57, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure I know what you mean. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:06, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From WP:EL: "Adding external links to an article can be a service to the reader, but they should be kept to a minimum of those that are meritable, accessible and appropriate to the article." - In other words: These external links have no more relevance to season 1 than to season 2 or to Belldandy. It seems they're just there for the purpose of having an EL section. -- Goodraise (talk) 22:18, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow, when you said EL I thought episode list!? and was utterly confused. I've removed the section. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support, all issues resolved. -- Goodraise (talk) 01:11, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 19:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support My issues with the prose have been resolved. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 19:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

Did we ever get confirmation on whether http://cal.syoboi.jp/tid/521/time was reliable? Dabomb87 (talk) 21:13, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't heard anything. I removed it in an earlier revision, but apparently I reverted that. Anyway, I've removed it for now. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 22:50, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Meets the criteria, as far as I can tell. –Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 20:46, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Is there a better reference (possibly foreign language) to use instead of (with) reference 1, because the encyclopedia section of Anime News Network is editable by anyone and therefore not considered very reliable.

In general, that source is widely accepted when it comes to anime episode list FLCs. That being said, I'll go take a look anyway. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 19:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've fixed the refs as best I can. Most of the refs indicate that the songs were the openings or endings, but do not confirm the episode numbers. I could just cite the episodes themselves if you would like, as the episodes do list the opening and closing tracks and the artist's name when the credits roll. NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 20:24, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

None of these citations are actually needed. Everything they are used to cite should be verifiable from the episodes themselves. -- Goodraise (talk) 20:35, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In the episode summaires try not to be too colloquial – e.g. I noticed the word "dorm" in episode 1 & 2

Fixed the "dorm." NOCTURNENOIR ^{( t • c )} 19:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
