>go to getter robo wikia

>change it because it's a wiki
>this happens

These idiots are so assblasted about people correcting their mistakes and outright ignore official romanzations for their own epeen.

>get shown proof about how 60% of their article is plainly wrong
>they just ban you and revert everything back to being incorrect
wooooooooooooooow

Welcome to the Wikiverse... try not to step in the dog dirt

I cannot back your cause even if you're right, because you came off as a total twat, and justifiably got banned for it.
>>
>>12496918
Except I wasn't the one who made that first post, only the second one that was showing proof.
>>
>>12496923
they probably think you're the first guy.
>>
>>12496892
Literally "Oy vey! He knows too much, shut it down!". I'm half surprised they didn't delete the comments as well.

>>12496923
They totally think you are the first guy as well.
>>
>actually caring about wikis and their e-drama
Why do you guys do this.
>>
>>12496935
that's not the impression i got. op came off as a twat. it's natural that others would respond in similar way
>>
>>12496933
>>12496935
They can see IPs. And either way, it shouldn't matter. If something is wrong in a wiki, it needs to be changed. If you are purposely reverting information into falsities despite having all the proof telling you otherwise, then you're just corrupt.

Anyway I just wanted to post this on /m/ because I know they browse this board. Last time someone was complaining about how grossly wrong the wiki was, they just kept telling him to change it. Well this is what happens when you change it.
>>
>>12496971
It's not that the name was wrong, the spelling on the wiki is just the official translated version, it was on the Italian manga and the pronunciation's the same, that just the way it's written in sanskrit.
>>
>>12496995
That's completely false.
>>
>>12496995
I'm the admin by the way
>>
>>12497002
explain how that's false, not everything in romanization is accurate, take this page for example: http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/double/rider/enginebrade.html
>>
>>12497012
Because that's not the name of the robot or series.
>>
>>12497022
How about Puru from Gundam ZZ?

Her "Official" romanization is "Ple" despite her never EVER being called anything but Puru.

Which resulted in her getting called "Pole" in Gundam Unicorn

Actually whatever writing system is used Arc is how its pronounced, ah (with those asterisk things) however is how it's written in Sanskirt, all international versions even the Japanese cover art uses the sanskrit character, hence why its used.

Hilarious and a bit sad.

Well yeah.

>>12497026
>>12497032
>>12497035
You're retarded if you honestly think that the American approximation of a Sanskrit pronunciation trumps the author naming his robot after his homeland's approximation of a Sanskrit character. The names are Arc, Kirik and Khan. It is not ah, hrim and ham. I'm sorry. You're retarded.
>>
>>12497039
Actually I unbanned him recently on an acquaintance's request
>>
>>12497047
I said the exact opposite of that, dumbfuck.
>>
>>12497047
Okay, now you really are just being a jerk.
>>
>>12497051
You didn't say anything. If you want to be heard properly, then formulate actual sentences like a human bean instead of using le epic images.

>>12497053
I'm being a jerk because I'm fighting against morons who won't even drop their dumb as shit position due to their misplaced pride.
>>
>>12497057
It's a fucking example of why "official romanisations" mentioned in >>12496893 is stupid, retard.
>>
>>12497047
>>12497057
>someone provides proof that you're right
>throw a fit at them for no reason, say their proof is "le epic images"
literal asspie retard

hide and ignore thread
>>
>>12497062
So you're saying Arc/Kirik/Khan is stupid, which is not the opposite of what I claimed that you said was wrong. Get rekt.
>>
>>12497071
Posting a Gundam book is not any sort of proof as to what Arc's name is. Go back to your wikia.
>>
>>12497072
Not stupid, those the pronunciations and romanized writing in Japan, but everywhere else, not as much.
>>
>>12497032
All this day we thought Turn A is Gundam when actually it is Gumdam?
>>
>>12497041
Whose point?

Which person are you?

They made an "Official" romanization because they wanted to reference some lolicon magazine. (I don't know if she was made with the intent of being named after the magazine from the beginning or if her official romanization came out later)

It
s still fucking retarded since anyone with even one working ear and a copy of Gundam ZZ would be able to tell her name's fucking Puru.

>>12497078
Japanese companies generally are crap at double checking their own romanizations.
>>
>yfw italian publishers can't even translate the credits properly
http://www.j-pop.it/getter-robot/3481-getter-robot-g.html
>>
>>12497093
Wrong, go back to your shitty wikia, retard.
>>
>>12497101
Stop pretending to be me. I'm too busy laughing at Italy for listing Getter Robo as a Go Nagai story.
>>
>>12497093
Learn to fucking read you stupid moron, do you really think that the American approximation of a Sanskrit pronunciation trumps the author naming his robot after his homeland's approximation of a Sanskrit character?
>>
>>12497110
The question is whether or not the Getter was named after the Sanskrit character and the approximation came later or if it was named after the approximation.

It seems more likely that it was named after the original character and both the English and Japanese (and the Japanese attempt to make it legible to English readers,) are simply doing their best to approximate the original.
>>
>>12497128
The Sanskrit is just a symbol. The name is Arc.
>>
>>12497136
tl;dr OP is a retarded asspie.

>>12497072
Nigga is stirrin up beef, even with niggas who agree with him.

You're lucky

He's just autistic, learn the difference. It may save your life

>>12497167
He's not a troll. He's just painfully correct.
