Citation stuff!
Hey there! When in doubt, I tend to look at how other people have done an edit to figure out how to do it. In the case of adding citiations, just look at another one and then c&p it. Change the chapter or chapter/page, and there you go. Hange's entry should already have some you can use to help you out. I hope this helps you.

Ah, I see the issue. You need to be using "Source" and not "Visual Editor". It will show you the codes that way, and is much easier to work with. As for the Ymir stuff, I'll start a Topic on the talk page for her entry. --Harostar (talk) 04:00, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

Okay. Basically, it is (right-facing bracket) ref (left-facing bracket) Shingeki no Kyojin - Chapter whatever.(right-facing bracket) /ref (left-facing bracket)--Harostar (talk) 05:26, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

Hmmm. I'm not exactly sure what to suggest, since I don't know what you're doing. You need to stay in the Source Editor, first and foremost. From there, there should be other references already in the article you can copy from. I guess....just go ahead and save your edit as is, so I can see where the issue is? --Harostar (talk) 07:00, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

That sounds like a plan. I wish I could pinpoint the issue more easily, but since I don't know what you're typing or doing exactly it's kind of difficult to know what to suggest. So just try it, and maybe leave in the Edit Summary a bit about doing it so someone else can find the issue? --Harostar (talk) 23:09, June 22, 2014 (UTC)

That's a good question. I'm not completely sure about adding mention of anime-only material, especially stuff that clashes with the manga. I'd ask in the Talk page for Jean's entry about that, and see what the mods say. --Harostar (talk) 22:44, June 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * Regarding anime content: As long as it does not contradict the manga, you can add it. I didn't discuss it with the others, but it should be fine to add "extended" scenes as well. For example, if a character goes from A to B in the manga, but in the anime the character goes from A to C and then to B, then it is fine, since the "way" from A to B was merely "extended". But if in the anime the character goes from A to D instead, then it contradicts the manga, as the character never reaches B, so that should not be added to the article. Additionally, if in the anime it is shown that after getting to B, the character moves on to another anime original content, but then without any contradictions get back to the manga plot without skipping/altering/contradicting any significant manga content, then it can be added as well. In any case if you think these conditions are met, you can write it. If something is wrong we are there to edit it to make it fit. NeoSuperior (talk) 23:12, June 23, 2014 (UTC)

Ah, ha! I found the issue in your trying to put in references. You're putting in a [ into the code, and that isn't supposed to be there. (I also went ahead and just put Hange's theory down in the main entry, since it's pretty significant event. --Harostar (talk) 23:10, June 23, 2014 (UTC)

Nah, I don't think the Chapter 57 stuff needs to be included in the History section, since Hange's theories on it are a recent event. Usually, stuff in History covers events prior to the main series such as flashbacks or things revealed in dialogue. Since the Ch. 57 stuff is primary a "Hange speculates" thing as opposed to a more direct 'this is what happened" then it's probably best kept in the main entry. --Harostar (talk) 20:25, June 24, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Anime versus Manga content
We generally try to avoid using meta phrases such as "in the anime" or "in Chapter XY". Instead we try to use an in-universe-observer speech, so outside of the trivia section, there should be no mentioning of anime and manga directly, aside from citations. Regarding what you want to edit, I must refuse it. We decided that anything after Annie's laught in the anime (meaning the whole of Episode 24 and 25) will not be mentioned in articles outside of the specific anime episode articles, because they significally deviated from the manga during those two episode.
