A misfit
Regarding the Body Paint entry under Lancer's folder, it was recently brought to my attention that his bodysuit is actually inspired by Vampire Hunter D's. I suspect the idea that it's a reference to naked Celts in blue bodypaint is just fanon, and uninformed fanon at that.

'Kay, if nobody comes up with a better reference, I'll give it until the end of October and then decide what to do. Probably either delete it, or add an explanation about its fanon status.

Okay, here we go. Feel free to revert if anyone has a source.

Who is this "Archer 2" fellow?
EDIT: Looked through page history, apparently done for spoiler reasons. I was thinking it was someone's joke or something.

Originally "Archer 2" was called by his true name, Gilgamesh, since Fate/Zero and the majority of spinoffs and adaptations don't conceal his identity, making it a Late-Arrival Spoiler for anyone who's seen them. However, one editor thought that, seeing as how is identity isn't revealed until late into the Fate arc, every mention of him should be referred to as "Archer 2" for spoiler purposes. Since calling him that within the spoiler tags was deemed redundant, he's referred to by his true identity in the spoiler tags.
While this reply is almost 4 years late, seeing as how the Shadow is a manifestation of Angra Mainyu in the same vein as the giant humanoid figure in the Unlimited Blade Works anime, shouldn't it be included under Angra Mainyu's folder?
Removing "Bi the Way", It is incorrect in respect of Canon and not hentai that features Rin and Saber+Shirou.
Saber doesn't show any romantic or sexual interest in any human being, apart for Shirou in Fate (and maybe a bit in UBW, but She doesn't even understand that).
In the Good End in UBW she is the Servant of Rin, She doesn't need body fluid to receive mana.
Also, as a bonus, She was married with her Queen but doesn't love or like her as a woman AT ALL. She is forced to have sex with her (and with Morgana), but was given a pseudo-penis, and was all' part of her "King's way", It doesn't mean anything for Saber as a person and a woman.
Removing would be the best thing.
P.s. In Fate's First H-scene she is only touched by Rin, she is basically broken and aroused by Shirou, not by Rin.

I think the General folder should have descriptions before the trope examples. It would be confusing for people to read the tropes without at least an idea about what a Servant really is. Any opinions?
The section for archer says there is a word of god that he could have qualified as saber, but nothing I can find indicates that is the case. Would it be possible for someone more familiar with the source material to either verify or remove that bit?
