I have removed the stub from this, I think it's a decent enough article at the moment. The only thing it really needs is a movie poster I think, but I can't find any big enough. Any objections to this? - Ferret 02:34, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

If you look at Bulbanews, you will see that all movie 8 articles link to an image of the poster which is fairly large, Image:Mew and the Wave-guiding Hero poster.png - 振霖T 12:33, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Should we edit Latios's synopsis to include the English names (and correct some grammar issues)? --Argy 04:11, 17 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Why not? - 振霖T 06:15, 17 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Well, there are two issues: 1) Has he given us permission to post it here, or did he write it specifically for Serebii.net? and 2) Is he allowing us to edit his work? --Argy 15:16, 17 Jul 2005 (UTC)

2 is not an issue. If it's on the 'pedia, it is allowed to be edited. 1 I cannot comment on, due to issues with copyright work appearing on 'Pedia. If he doesn't want it here, we must take it down. Alternatively, internet copyright laws are weird as hell, and while I won't go into a legal discourse the entire situation is very "iffy" from copyright standpoints (of who owns what.) evkl 22:23, 17 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I'm all for having the synopsis on the 'pedia, but please be aware of the disclaimer that Serebii's Pokemon Page puts on all it's such works:

OK. To Avoid the current hassles there is this disclaimer for those Who want to use it without permission: You shall not post this on anywhere for public use You shall not sell this for public use Do not replicate and forward without permission Do not claim this is yours Do Not Translate it into your languange and claim ownership

So there you go. A user could easily paraphrase and cite Altomare Latio's article without stealing his hard work. Serebii does have the right to claim ownership... but at the same time, it's not copyrighted, so... Someone get this worked out, OK?--ANinyMouse 00:36, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

No matter what Serebii says, unless he can show us legal papers proving that Xeno has in fact transferred his copyright to Serebii, then Xeno has the legal right to reproduce and re-license his work as he pleases. As far as I know, Xeno has agreed to do this particular piece for free for anyone to use if they asked. As far as I know, Archaic has asked. So therefore: it's fine. - 振霖T 08:14, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Sounds great =) --ANinyMouse 00:43, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Furthermore, I could strongly debate whether a website (not a person) can actually own any piece of information. If it's not copyrighted to an entity (corporation, foundation, individual, partenership, etc.), it may not be copyrighted at all, especially with how international copyright works.

Ryan/Woopert

Can someone please define how Woopert vandalized this page and why Ryan's edits needed reverted?

I don't think either was justified... evkl 19:38, 14 December 2005 (CST)

As GoldChaos mentioned on the talk page for the Deoxys Movie, IMDb is the only source for that movie's Japanese PG-12 rating. As for the Lucario movie, IMDb has no page on it and Movie Tome (a source he constantly praises) only provides a Y7-FV rating. Besides, anyone who's seen or read summaries of these two movies knows they're entirely too tame for a PG-12 rating.
I'd also like you to see the talk page and history of this movie's Wikipedia article, to see for yourself what Ryanasaurus has posted there. The way he keeps restoring edits by various anonymous users (and vice-versa) that I and others have reverted suggests to me that those anonymous users might actually be his sock puppets.
