• Delete, it's not a separate thing from One Piece. --tjstrf talk 03:35, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep/Merge Seems like a pretty extensive and, indeed, interesting and informative article (and I am not a fan of One Piece - never seen an episode of it). In fact, these articles have more sources cited than most anime articles. Should be merged with One Piece anime (English adaptation), maybe cleaned up a bit, more citation perhaps? I dunno, maybe my standards are low. Snarfies 03:39, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Extensive, yes, but it basically amounts to WP:NOR-violating fanboy whining about what are generally minuscule changes, while your suggested merge target is an anti-4kids slaughter piece. --tjstrf talk 04:00, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment. Accusing someone who disagrees with you of being an "anti-4kids fanboy whiner" is not the way to get your opinion accepted by others. —Dark•Shikari^[T] 14:30, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment I don't really feel he did that. No hard feelings. Snarfies 00:23, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or merge. Interesting, verifiable, and as far as I can see doesn't violate any guidelines, though it probably needs quite a bit of trimming. —Dark•Shikari^[T] 14:30, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  If it is verifiable, it needs to have third-party citations from reliable sources. However, if it is just the editor comparing two images, then it's original research. --Farix (Talk) 22:44, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I'm not seeing the part of WP:OR that the picture in question is (in theory) violating...? Would a picture of a red apple and a green apple to illustrate the difference be a problem as well? Snarfies 00:28, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment A man presents you with two fruits. An apple in his left hand, and an orange in his right. However, he has no third-party citations from reliable sources actually stating that there is in fact a difference between his aledged apple and aledged orange. The existance of the man is not considered note-worthy until appropriate findings are published in a scientific journal. -13:23, 29 January 2007 (WST)
• Merge. It works for Sailor Moon (English versions). --Masamage 03:39, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• For both of these "English version" articles I think they should at least be merged together into one page, if not merged into a smaller section in the main article. FredOrAlive 17:48, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep/Merge Definitely needs to be cleaned up, but I honestly think it would be a waste to trash a resource like this. Perhaps with more images to illustrate changes made. And I'm sure it'd be easy enough to find some citable source of public outcry if you wanted. -13:30, 29 January 2007 (WST)
• Keep/Merge. Per Snarfies. Jerry lavoie 23:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment the whole discussion about the orange and the apple above is hilarious! Jerry lavoie 23:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
