openHyuga, Hyuuga, or Hyūga? Otsutsuki, Ootsutsuki, or Ōtsutsuki? Anime
So my watchlist just updated me that the Characters.Naruto Team Eight Members page was edited, and every single instance of "Hyuga" or "Hyuuga" were edited to "Hyūga", by the troper Naru Hina Fan. Considering that, admittedly, the surname does suffer from Spell My Name With An S, I'm confused as to which is the spelling that's adhered to most here on TV Tropes. Does anyone know?
The same goes for Otsutsuki, Ootsutsuki, or Ōtsutsuki, from the Characters.Naruto Otsutsuki Clan page.
Here's the Team 8 Members page's edit history: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php?article=Characters.NarutoTeamEightMembers
Here's the Otsutsuki Clan page's edit history: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php?article=Characters.NarutoOtsutsukiClan
Here is the troper's edit history: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/el.php?findfor=NaruHinaFan
See, if this troper actually left an Edit Reason as to why they edited the surnames, I wouldn't be here asking about it...
Edited by mouschilightopen A really old Japanese cartoon /anime Anime
I can't remember the name of it it's already been more than 5 years since I watched it. It had a captain and a unique crew and a little child(who could be a boy or girl it's not clear 😅) the child wanted to join to them but I remember the captain wasn't so nice to him/her and didn't want him to join because it's too dangerous but he joined anyway I think he sneaked in the spaceship i also remember one of the crew was short and wore something like iron suit he was good at computers his personality is funny and silly and another one was really huge and had a long face (i forgot about the rest 😢)all i remember is that they find a naked frozen man in the space i think and they take him into the ship and they notice he isn't human he have something like a glowing number on his neck and that's all what I remember 😅 oh and the anime have a bit of dark and sad feeling to it.if anyone out there who have any idea of what the anime is called please let me know i have been thinking about this none stop🙏
openGlitteringFlowers -- spoiler-tagging issues; personal bias and shipping bias; irrelevant information Anime
Glittering Flowers likes to Downplay Naruto's one-sided shallow crush on Sakura. Loving a Shadow perfectly describes just how shallow his crush on her was, up until he outright rejected her in Chapter 469: he thought she was pretty, and he only liked her because she liked Sasuke and he wanted to beat out Sasuke at something for once. This was all stated in Chapter 3 of the manga, and then confirmed again in the Canon movie The Last: Naruto the Movie.
Yet, as evidenced in the links provided below, this person likes to Downplay the fact that it was a shallow crush, that it was legitimately and officially stated to be Loving a Shadow. They like to call it a "child-like" crush, but it was a shallow crush based on the factual information that I've given.
This has been going on for a while, in other tropes such as Snow Means Love, but I'm getting tired of having to correct this person's edits with facts taken directly from the manga or any other Canon material ("Stating the source", as detailed in Administrivia.How To Write An Example). Also, I'm not sure if, by doing all of this, this person is showing personal shipping bias towards a sunken pairing. I think they are, but I want the moderators to decide.
Here's their edit history: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/el.php?findfor=GlitteringFlowers.
Here are two of the pages that this person has edited, which seemed to display shipping bias. I corrected their entry for Snow Means Love, though, a few months back, and that entry has not been touched since.

Edited by mouschilightopenExcessive Spoiler Tags in GE - Good Ending Anime
Earlier today, I Wiki Walked my way into GE - Good Ending and, to be blunt,the page was a mess. I've done what I can to deal with the worst of it (links to manga sites, multiple tropes listed together, example indentation, ZCE's... oh man the ZCE's...) but there's one issue I'm not sure how to handle: Spoiler tagging.
The spoiler tagging on the page and its subpages strikes me as very excessive. Several Wall of White entries for a start. A few spoilered trope names though I dealt with those. The thing is I don't know the series well enough to differentiate what is and is not a spoiler so I'm not sure what to uncover to keep things looking both good and correct.
I was wondering if anyone had some advice (or, if there's a forum thread for this kind of thing, point me in the right direction). I did look for a forum thread for GE itself, but had no luck.

On the Digimon Xros Wars characters page, the subpage for the Blue Flare Army is mistakedly titled as Blue Fare Army. Does anyone know how to correct that error?
openQuestionable edits on "Soul Eater" Anime
~Shushuruhn (a new account, according to the Watchlist) has gone over Manga.Soul Eater and edited out all references to the character Chrona having an Ambiguous Gender (Word of God is basically a Shrug of God), which seems a bit questionable. I've done a quick search and haven't found anything to suggest it's changed (the original manga ended a few years ago, and I don't think any of the spinoffs have even featured Chrona).
Edit History for the article in question.
EDIT: The editor in question seems to have done the same to their character page about 5 days ago, too.
Edited by Bisected8open A show about the space Anime
It was a cartoon kinda like avatar style with a red spaceship ( the colour can be different ) but it’s shaped with two points on the front. There was a boy and a girl that can bend some kind of source. But they can’t bend when it’s sunlight or night. And the boy learned somehow to bend in the sunlight or night. In the end of the show the spaceship explodes i think.
Please someone help me to find the name
openAwesome.YuGiOh Anime
siamesecatman444 changed most of the Egyptian God Cards' names on Awesome.Yu Gi Oh from English to Japanese. The characters pages use the English manga names where applicable, which are usually Japanese, but the English manga actually used the English names for the God Cards. The edits also extended to scripted duels which explicitly use the English names. I'm unsure what to do, but is there a way to revert the changes if they're not okay?

openRegarding the sudden deletion of the HoYay/LoveLiveSunshine page Anime
Is it possible to revert or bring back the HoYay/LoveLiveSunshine page after getting cutlisted? (Or at least give a more detailed reason for deletion?)
I can't help but question the sudden deletion on the grounds that it's "spam"—which is defined as "unsolicited, undesired or illegal email messages." Everything that the HoYay/LoveLiveSunshine page wasn't.
Unless there's some kind of recent memorandum or consensus posted here on TVT regarding such pages, in which case, might as well wipe the rest of the Ho Yay pages for other fictional works.
And the troper who did it: jormis29 (edit history).
Edited by IncognitoNinjaopenEdit War Anime
There's an Edit War brewing in the Characters.Naruto The New Era page between matruz and Omega Radiance, over Sumire being a Canon Immigrant or not. She appeared in the Boruto anime first before she finally made an appearance in the Boruto manga, but as proven in these interviews (https://otakukart.com/animeblog/2017/06/17/boruto-reveals-kishimoto/2/, http://comicbook.com/anime/amp/2017/06/14/boruto-writer-reveals-how-closely-the-anime-works-with-naruto-cr/, and http://www.spirallingsphere.com/2017/06/ukyou-kodachi-talks-about-kishimotos-extremely-carefull-supervision-of-boruto/), the Boruto anime is, in fact, canon due to Kishimoto's supervision over the anime (which has been taking place before the events of Boruto: Naruto the Movie and the Boruto manga).
Because of this, Omega is saying that Sumire isn't a Canon Immigrant because she was already canon before she appeared in the manga, due to the anime being canon, so he deleted her Canon Immigrant entry. matruz disagreed and re-added the entry.
Here's the edit history to the page in question: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php?article=Characters.NarutoTheNewEra
Edited by mouschilightopenDragonball Super WMG question Anime
The WMG page of Dragonball Super is getting too big, it needs to be made shorter. I feel that we need to give it a sub-page for the Universal Survival Arc, as that's the biggie. Where do I go to ask if I can do something like this?

openRealityEnsues.Anime length issue Anime
EDP has made several lengthy edits to RealityEnsues.Anime And Manga focusing on Sailor Moon, which go into triple-level bullet points and pointing out every instance of it involving Sailor Venus/Minako, when a second-level general example (she was fighting for a year beforehand and while she's the most competent, she has severe issues that she hides) is already there and isn't nearly as long. I was unsure what to do as while they're aren't nattery exactly they seem overly long and detailed, as well as the triple-bullet thing. (Another, earlier entry is basically 'people who wouldn't be skilled at ballet... aren't skilled at ballet XD;)

Edited by lalalei2001openA sort-of pre-emptive launch--is this kosher? Anime
A manga title known as Yuru Camp is known to have a anime adaptation in January, and at the same time the manga is licensed by Yen Press under the title Laid-back Camp (a direct translation). Since the latter fact is probably less known, and by policy the work article should be at the latter title, is it acceptable for me to launch a very stubby page under the latter title (in that it has a brief synopsis, indexed in a few pages, but no trope entries) and making the former title a redirect? This is to prevent later editors to include editors to the wrong page, as I have seen several times.
So what is that show where there are like fairy girls and they each control elements. Like theres a blonde that controls water. A black girl that controls fire. A read haired girl that controls wind. Like they turn into fairies and get wings and their outfits are blue. Also it shows a world that has trolls and stuff like that. One if the villains is an old woman that uses puppetry.
