These are the edits I'd love to see implemented, if anyone finds themselves with the time:
- The credit 'Mahan in "Victory Belles"' has a tag that reads '(video game)' afterwards. Could it be changed to '(VG)' to match the rest of the page?

I've done this. I went with the name of the character "USS Mahan" as it appears on your website. Is that alright? (not familiar with the game)

- Removing the specific episode tags on Dagashi Kashi and Ultimate Otaku Teacher for uniformity with the rest of the page.

I'd prefer not to do this. If this is to be fixed to be more uniform, it needs to be the other way around, with the episodes being added to the rest of the credits. If a cast or staff member is not in every episode, then it is helpful to have the numbers listed so users will know which episode(s) they appear.

- Changing the Ultimate Otaku Teacher credit to say 'as Mrs. Chinami' rather than having a semi-colon, for uniformity with the other character roles.

The semicolon is what happens with any listing where there's more than one role for a single cast member. The first role is unnamed credits, in which case the "as" doesn't appear at all. I think I would prefer unnamed credits to be listed last, though I can't do anything about this myself. This would require changes to the Encyclopedia itself and should be mentioned in the Encyclopedia Suggestion List thread if you think it should be changed.

Yes, that's correct! Thank you for making that change. But now it says (Japanese) in parentheses after the credit, for some reason?

Oh... alright. I can understand that. I just find the episode tags to be so distracting, I was hoping they could be removed. But I get your reasons. Thank you, regardless.

Oops, looks like I wasn't paying enough attention to the language. Thanks for pointing it out.
