Talk:Unknown writing

hey guys
Hey guys. This is my first page. I have two points of discussion I'd like to discuss.

1. How do other users feel about the content of this page? Is this worth noting?

2. How is the formatting and overall quality?

As a side note, I have about seven or so more pictures without any spot to place them in.

 * Hey thanks so much for contributing, I never thought of making a page like this but it is an awesome idea. Perhaps the name could be something like "Titan Language" or something like that. So yes, it is absolutely worth noting. I like the quality however, I would direct you to our image policy which is against scanlations and leaving text in the pictures, so the "Speech bubbles" should be whited out like the rest of our images. For that reason I've added deletion requests to the images, but would encourage you to re-upload version that have the speech bubbles whited out. Images should also cascade along the page. This means that, with the exception of the top right picture, the rest should start left and then go right, then left, then right etc. I would also encourage you to put the pages in the references, and you can find the format on other pages like Levi or Hange.


 * So far, the formatting is a little wonky but certainly nothing horrid, it's actually well done. I have changed what I can for now. Overall, great addition and thanks for joining our community and contributing! Message me at my wall with any questions : )--PrelateZeratul (talk) 22:22, March 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * Good job! This idea hadn't crossed my mind either. I just made two changes: I clarified that "Titan Writing" is not an official name (I like it more than "Titan Language" because the only information we have at the moment is writing), and whited out the two images which had text, so there's no problem with them. :) Manuel de la Fuente (talk) 00:11, March 26, 2015 (UTC)

Layout
I guess adding a space didn't work, probably because of the sentence I added to the first picture. :/ Might just have to wait till there's more info to add. EternalLocket (talk) 23:16, March 26, 2015 (UTC)

Is This Page Really Necessary?
This page lists that there is "Titan Writing" on the syringes Rod Riess had, but that's not writing of any kind. It's just adornment, like filigree and such. The only place we've seen this writing is on the can of herring.

It seems more likely that it's simply a language that hasn't been used in 60+ years rather than having any direct connection to the Titans, and was only mint to hint at the fact that Ymir is actually from 60 years ago. We know that there "used to be different kinds of people", so there were probably other languages that no one can read anymore too.Nue Renji (talk) 01:00, July 9, 2015 (UTC)

I also think it's redundant, however, the last section should definitely be deleted, because it's... well, a speculation. A wikia article should be composed of facts that can be clearly referenced to a manga chapter/anime episode/any other official source. 16:09, July 9, 2015 (UTC)

I agree, feel free to reword/rewrite/remove any part that you think that shouldn't be there.--Manuel de la Fuente (talk) 17:10, July 9, 2015 (UTC)

Removed the speculation from the article, as well as mentions of the syringe. Should the title of the page also be changed, perhaps to "Unknown Writing" or something similar? We don't have any evidence to link it to Titans. As I said, it seems more likely that it's simply a language that hasn't been used in 60+ years.Nue Renji (talk) 17:53, July 11, 2015 (UTC)


 * I changed it to Unknown Writing, though it's possible that Reiner lied. But I guess until we have a little more evidence of it possibly being writing, it's best to call it "Unknown" writing. EternalLocket (talk) 19:11, July 11, 2015 (UTC)

Hardening bottle
any one else noticed the hardening bottle has a similer writting?

I can see the similarities. We should wait for confirmation for or against any official relation before anything is added to the page GodKingReiss (talk) 01:13, January 14, 2016 (UTC)
