merged the two

Just my two cents: While it's correct in this case, AllCinema is not exactly the most trustworthy site for furigana / romanization; in this case I'd suggest using DrillSpin and DMM (site is IP-restricted; link is from Google Cache).

For DMM, just use a Japanese proxy—I prefer http://kira.hp2.jp/.

Please merge these now. Other people have pointed these flaws out and people HAVE NOT yet fixed them.

And NO excuses for any reasons why you can't. Just do it. Cut the crap already.

I really don't think that language is necessary. We as regular users don't see the same behind-the-scenes stuff the editors do, and there could be an unending multitude of work that prevents them from completing tasks such as mergers in a timely fashion.

May I make the request to the editors that, in the future, a reply or edit is made to the mergers that have been completed? That way, both sides know what still needs to be done Smile

Thanks in advance!

Yes. Please tone it down, StrangeIslands. That's no way to win friends or influence people.

Err... for all but the first one, you've presented a list of people with different names.

Many are somewhat known aliases. Although I think we only merge aliases in cases where we don't think it'll jeopardize the person's jobs?

I don't mind merging these, despite how very rude the request was, if there isn't a conflict in doing so.

And that's why I don't merge English VA unless there's a solid green light i.e. admitted or requested by the VA him/herself.

Takeshi Konuta and Kenji Konuta are the same person. According to Japanese Wikipedia, "Kenji" is the correct pronunciation of his given name.

Shinya Kusumegi
person#52206
person#75003

Same person just under two different names.

Sakuga@Wiki says it is pronounced: 'Kusumegi Shinya'

http://www18.atwiki.jp/​sakuga/​pages/​1403.​html

I also made a thread many months ago in case mods want to mark it done: animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2247017

--------
Kenichi Hamazaki
person#57241
person#4566

The "Kenichi Hamasaki" entry only has 7 entries. I've checked through those 7 and all have the same kanji and so they all belong to the same person.
From what I can gather, Hamazaki with a Z is the correct spelling as he is credited in katakana for Viper GTS as "ハマザキケンイチ".

Not sure what to do with this one:

person#5260
person#19993

While working on some staff updates for this manga#2300, I came across "Bill Flanagan" being credited for Editor-in-Chief. I'm not sure why this was done because he is credited as "William" on the copyright pages.

The only other manga I could check on "Bill's" list was xxxHoLiC. He is credited as Bill in volume 2, but then he is credited as William from volumes 3 through 5 (I don't have any more volumes to check past that point).

I'm not certain whether or not this is the same person since Alice 19th is a Viz title, whereas xxxHoLiC is Del Rey.

person#11427 <-- Correct spelling
person#12794

I have accredited Anna Kernbaum with her tasks for Marmalade Boy. Someone must have submitted the spelling "Kembaum" in err.
