"We can add an "Appearances in Other Media" list onto the individual technique pages, rather than listing them with anime & manga canon characters" - Arrancar109

This seems like the best solution to me. It addresses the concern of not being canon and keeping canon/non-canon separate, but keeps the info there. (PS sorry for disappearing so abruptly for a couple of days. That was bad timing, but I'm back now). 14:12, December 23, 2011 (UTC)

I think it is time for Tjakari to go. He obviously has no interest in contributing and only wants to troll and/or insult the wiki. Take a look at his latest blog.--

A Real & New(ish) Solution to Tenken stuff
To emphasize: I don't mean to stir up anything long thought settled, but Godisme suggested you'd be the one to talk to about this, and with there seeming to be a fine and true solution to the "issue" at last--one which I think would be best, too--I wanted to run it by you, with my reasoning, and get your feedback.

The crux of the solution and reasoning is discussed--with embedded text links of further supporting data--here; for some of the response Godisme makes on my page, see here.

The most recent raising of this issue can be seen (if somehow it was missed) here; it gets lengthy and may tire you out, tho (XD), so use caution. But as I said, I don't meant to revive a tedious issue, but to offer the new solution linked to and delineated above. In summation: when terms have culturo-mythic references (such as Myōō referring to a vidyaraja, or Enma to Yama), I use these referred-to names, even in my English translation. But I would also like to link to these referents via their text, even as we already do with, say, linking "Spiranthes" for elucidation to its Wiki page in the Nejibana translation. Thus, the translation would not be altered, but would also immediately link to its references for better understanding of its meaning. In the "Karin + Yuzu" topic of Sunrider84's archive, Yyp likewise mentions this practice already in use for non-familiar, untranslated/specialized-use Japanese words.

I hope you agree with this, as I think it would prove the neatest and least-obtrusive solution. Please let me know :). Adam Restling (talk) 01:40, December 24, 2011 (UTC)
