Kaiju Collaboration

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)

@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)

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)

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)

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)

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: the Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra, and King Ghidorah articles (in that order). (Also, I can't find Varan even mentioned in Behind the Kaiju Curtain.) Eiga-Kevin2 (talk) 05:27, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

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 the Japanese wikipiedia entry of the first film which gives some additional literary sources, and also looking at Toho 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)

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 the Godzilla 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)

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%AD Paleface Jack (talk) 15:26, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

That's okay. I am not good at those kinds of sources either. My experience working on the Leatherface 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)

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 of Ken 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)

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)

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)

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

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)

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)

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)

DYK for Eiji Tsuburaya

On 10 July 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Eiji Tsuburaya, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Eiji Tsuburaya (pictured) helped complete the first iron shooting crane? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Eiji Tsuburaya. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Eiji Tsuburaya), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Megalon and other Kaiju edits

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 the Rhedosaurus 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)

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)

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)

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.

Your GA nomination of Shin Ultraman

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Shin Ultraman you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days.

"Important foreign film"

Regarding these edits [1], there's some misinterpretation. I checked the Ryfle/Godziszewski source and this 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 about Godzilla, King of the Monsters!, not Godzilla (1954 film). I already added the material to the former article, see Legacy section. Armegon (talk) 17:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Template:Interlanguage link

Hi, thanks for the great work on Shin Ultraman! I've added Template:Interlanguage link to several ja links in the article.

Need Help

Hi! Was wondering can you have a look/do some cleanup at Godzilla_(franchise)#Box_office_performance. That was mostly if not all edited by User:Maestro2016 who is now banned. This goes back as far as July 2018 according to the edit logs [2]. Timur9008 (talk) 23:58, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Sure thing! I'll happily give it a try when I have the time. Eiga-Kevin2 (talk) 03:51, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

G-1.0 on WikiProject Film

I published the post. I pinged you but in case it didn't work, here it is. Armegon (talk) 01:45, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

I removed the post from WikiProject Film. Maybe I'm being impatient, but no one's responded to it and the way you revised the edit is good enough for me. So I don't see how outside opinions can make it better than it is. Armegon (talk) 20:37, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Ok. Btw, I was just making a major edit to the page and then went to publish it to find that my edit had conflicted with another's again. Was that you? Eiga-Kevin2 (talk) 20:45, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

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 honestly don't know for sure how it works, but when it happens to me I try again a few seconds later. Armegon (talk) 21:58, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Ah, I see. About that edit, Ando didn't really outright dispute that claim, he was just acknowledging that theory from social media and mentioning his hypotheses that it is a Godzilla project based on Yamazaki's statement. Eiga-Kevin2 (talk) 22:05, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

An encyclopedia should use prose

Please note WP:PROSE. An encyclopedia should use prose. There has been a long standing consensus against using tables listing critics in film articles (even though some TV, Games, or Music articles do this). Please do not add tables to the Reception response section of film articles.

Instead please try to choose from the most notable critics and select short comments from their reviews about the actual substance of the film, rather than just scores in a table. -- 109.76.138.72 (talk) 19:48, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

DYK for Godzilla Minus One

On 7 August 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Godzilla Minus One, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a Japanese essayist and film historian has called Godzilla Minus One a "dangerous movie"?

Pokémon Heroes

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)

Alright, here's what else I think needs to be done: The page needs more: credits in the infobox (suggest you take those from the Japanese 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 to The 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)

@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)

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)

@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)

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)

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 per MOS:FILMLEAD. Also, is there anything written online on the film's themes? Eiga-Kevin2 (talk) 22:14, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

@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)

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)

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)

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)

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)

@Eiga-Kevin2 That's perfectly alright. I greatly appreciate the help so far. Thank you for your contributions and enjoy the break! Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 00:10, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

@Eiga-Kevin2 I understand you're probably busy, so would you want me to try and implement some of the changes you wanted for the article in your stead? Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 01:31, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

Why did you remove the dubbing info on Godzilla Minus One?

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)

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 on anime 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)

Pulgasari GA Review

Hello again, I was adding the GA template on the TP at the same time as you :D; I hope the edit conflict was resolved. I've added it in the Good Articles Media an Drama list but confess I hesitated before categorising it in the 1990s and not the 1980s. If you think that was a mistake, feel free to change. Best, -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:02, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Just saw your other message. Will do, certainly-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:04, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Christiebot beat me.:D -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:06, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

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)

OK! Makes sense. I'll change it. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:30, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

File:Shin, Kim Il Sung, and Choi.png

Hi Eiga-Kevin2. I don't think the non-free use of File:Shin, Kim Il Sung, and Choi.png meets Wikipedia's non-free content use policy, specifically non-free content use criterion #1 (WP:FREER) and non-free content use criterion #8 (WP:NFC#CS), for use in Pulgasari#Development. Non-free photos like this are generally only allowed for identification purposes when they're used for primary identification purposes in the main infoboxes of stand-alone articles about the persons depicted in the photo. Non-free usage in other articles or in other ways tends to be much harder to justify and almost always is considered to be WP:DECORATIVE. I don't think you would be able to establish a consensus in favor of this particular use if this file were to be discussed at WP:FDD, but it could also adversely affect the FA review of the article. You probably should consider tagging the file for speedy deletion per WP:G7 and looking for freely licensed equivalent images that can be used instead, even if they're not the exact same image. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:00, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Shin, Kim Il Sung, and Choi.png

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Shin Sang-ok.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Shin Sang-ok.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the non-free content guidelines, please add the appropriate non-free use tag and rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:30, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
