While your drive to create new articles from the request list is admirable, the way you are going about it is not appropriate. Articles should not be created by just copy/pasting plots from ANN. Nor should refs be added to the infobox as you have done with most of the stubs you've made. Please also read the instructions for using the various anime/manga infoboxes, as you are adding non-existant fields to many of them. You might also want to look at our WP:MOS-AM for proper article structure. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 04:19, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

why can't I use external publishers websites as sources? Extremepro (talk) 23:39, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
When adding links to material on an external site, as you did to Wikipedia:Requested articles/Japan/Anime and Manga, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe the linked site is not violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:
If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead. You've been given a lot of chances here, but please actually pay attention to some of these warnings. Do NOT link to scanslation sites EVER. Do NOT steal content from other websites. If you continue this behavior, you are very likely to be blocked. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 06:44, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
The character summaries in this list do not need referencing, particularly not seemingly random references to the books as a whole. Rather, specific references to those individual books where the events happen, with page numbers, is much preferred. For now, why not work on filling in the other book summaries (not too lengthy), in the table, and addressing the notability issue. You might also want to use that welcome message above to review various basic guidelines about Wikipedia editing. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 07:18, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Can someone please assess Shinobi Life and answer my questions on Talk:Asu no Yoichi! Extremepro (talk) 03:38, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Please do not edit Wikipedia:WikiProject Anime and manga/Cleanup task force/Cleanup listing as you did earlier today. This page is automatically maintained by a bot, plus you are not experienced enough to declare any article as "cleaned up" when the ones you create and edit are constantly having to be corrected after you make edits. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 07:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
Please stop putting misleading volume lists in articles as you did with B.O.D.Y (manga). It is not an Manga-Inspired Comic, it is a manga. As such, any volume release should have BOTH releases, not just the English ones. Also, Amazon should be a last resort source, not the first one you turn to. Almost all of the manga publishers have release dates on their sites which is a more appropriate source to use. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 22:34, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

How do you upload an image of a manga cover from it's publisher, with a non-free use rational, cause Wikipedia Commons doesn't allow it. Extremepro (talk) 23:35, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, for helping in the manga/anime requested articles :)
I saw someone upload the entire series on Veoh. Does it violate EL if I included it in the article? Reply here. thanks--Eaglestorm (talk) 14:53, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Good work with adding the manga and other media sections, plus the Kyokujitsu no Kantai translation tag. perhaps when the Kyokujitsu no Kantai section is expanded further then we could split that off into a new article. --Eaglestorm (talk) 12:10, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your hard work in the Anime/Manga Requested Article Department. A good thing to have someone always up to challenge to create new article. Keep it up :) --KrebMarkt 07:05, 22 February 2009 (UTC) |
The WP:Babel userboxes on your page indicate that you have limited knowledge of English, Chinese, and Japanese, but you have no other languages listed there. I can't help but wonder, then, what your native language is, or what country you live in? You don't have to answer if you don't want, I'm just curious. ;) 「ダイノガイ千?!」(Dinoguy1000) 19:20, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

((helpme))|How can I request French to English translation on non-Wikipedia pages? (like reviews in French) Extremepro (talk) 11:08, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
Well, this isn't really a question about WP, but, I personally use Google Translate. There's quite a few others available. Good luck with it. -- Chzz ► 11:14, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
Just thought I'd send you a virtual high-five for creating The Moon and the Sandals. It looks great! :D --Malkinann (talk) 11:07, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
- Is this good for DYK? I've also requested the article for assessment. Extremepro (talk) 20:27, 2 April 2009 (UTC)In 2008, the author, Fumi Yoshinaga, was nominated for the Eisner Award for her work on The Moon and the Sandals and Flower of Life (manga)
Cool, thanks for making Ichigenme - Sequential Tart is listed on WP:ANIME's Online Resources Library, and Active Anime will be as soon as the discussion's archived.

Hi, Extremepro. You may not be aware, but the new Featured list criteria was implemented Sunday 5 April, 00:56 (UTC) following two weeks of discussion at Wikipedia talk:Featured list criteria#New criterion discussion.
I've gone through the nominations and have noticed you have !voted Support, Oppose or Neutral at the following nominations:
Please could you take the time to revisit the articles and candidate pages, and check them against the new Featured list criteria, and confirm/revise your !vote; any !vote made against the old criteria that is not confirmed against the new criteria will be ignored when the nomination is closed.
Finally, please accept my apologies for the brusqueness of this message; the same wording is being sent to everyone who has outstanding reviews, with only the names of lists being changed. Regards, Matthewedwards : Chat 05:17, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your work in the anime-manga requested article department, always going above and beyond the call of duty in locating Japanese references for these articles in addition to reception material, including, especially, the entire English-translated oeuvre of Fumi Yoshinaga. Malkinann (talk) 05:57, 17 April 2009 (UTC) |
I don't suppose you'd be willing to take a look at the redlinks on List of manga series by volume count to see if any of them can support an article? (Note that a couple of them have already been reviewed and are archived in the Refused Requests Archive, but a second look never hurts ;) ) 「ダイノガイ千?!」(Dinoguy1000) 19:12, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Aside from needing a more complete plot summary and character descriptions/critique of characters, the reception section is very much biased towards the games (although you've done well there) - I've copied the relevant reception stuff to the article on the game. --Malkinann (talk) 05:37, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
The article on Annabeth is constantly being vandalized by IP addresses. While that can be dealt with, there is this big problem with the quote from The Demigod Files. Continuous reverts are going on whether the quote should be "The guy [Percy] has a lot going for him. He's courageous. He's got a sense of humor. He's good looking, but don't you dare tell him I said that. He's so ...obtuse. I mean he doesn't see really obvious stuff like the way people feel, even when you're giving him hints and being totally blatant. What? No. I'm not talking about anyone or anything in particular! I'm just making a general statement. Why does everyone always think...agh! Forget it." or "The guy [Percy] has a lot going for him. He's courageous. He's got a sense of humor.

The guidelines for Wikipedia:Peer review ask that editors nominate no more than one article per day (and four total at any one time). While the rules say that one of the requests can be removed, I will let it slide since this is the first time. Take care, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 04:25, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Brave Story CD.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:11, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I hope I'm not bothering you. From your user page, I noticed that you understand a little Japanese, and I was hoping you might be able to find the Japanese release date for Seal of the Red Ram (赤い羊の刻印 Akai Hitsuji no Kokuin) for the Earl Cain article. I have tried to find it, but cannot. (And if you can find better refs for the Japanese release dates for the other volumes, please add them!) Thank you. Kaguya-chan (talk) 22:55, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
Annabeth's article has been nominated in AfD. Can you please help me here and work on it. I We are in dire need of help. Pmlinediter Talk 10:29, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
I have put some reviews in the article, but have encountered a problem. There is an article in Los Angeles Times on the book here[2], but I am wondering whether or not to include anything from it. Please help. Pmlinediter Talk 10:05, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
Glad to help - I would explain in the lead what the Toga are (sins). Otherwise to someone not familiar with Japanese it seems as if he is a mass murderer in the present. Thanks too for your review of Nordic Council's Literature Prize - sorry I missed that before, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 12:04, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
I gave you most of my thoughts on the Brave Story article prior to the peer review, but perhaps more on the film would be good. --Malkinann (talk) 07:03, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Now that Annabeth's article's AfD has been closed with no consensus, can you help us in improving the article? You might also help in improving The Last Olympian if you have got the book. Pmlinediter Talk 09:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
