    Yakumi Hisako...
    Dniv

    Yakumi Hisako was mentioned in the last section translated by JS06 so she was officially already translated and written in english... You said to translate after JS06 wrote it up... I only added what was known from what was already translated by JS06 on Baka-Tsuki.

    So should I wait until all of NT 7 is translated to add any information from it? Because I only added information from what has already been Translated.

      Wait until everything is translated, things change quickly in the story of Toaru Majutsu no Index in a single volume, and it is better to give no information than that wrong or an outdated one. Even now, I have to contend with the effects before js06 even started translating the novels.

      Okay. I'll wait until he finishes translating the full novel.

      The spots are always available, but I do not have the will or desire to make anyone an admin at this point in time. Far better, if you asked herald of meridian. Moreover, I've become weary of people that I have given power to and do not intend to use it or follow through with their promises.

      If you are still here long after the fervor of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S has passed, then ask me again. This is of course if I am still here.

    Some questions and suggestions
    Kamina lowell

    Hi, I had some questions about the series and the wiki and some suggestions about the latter.

    Questions:

    • 1 - In the wiki is said that, when Awakened, Accelerator can create and control imaginary vectors, but inthe novel only say that he uses an invisible and unexplainable power, or at least in Baka Tsuki's translations. Which is the right one?
    • 2 - What does the "wield" of The One Who Wields th Power of God mean? To exert or to brandish?
    • 3 - Are the Sisters Level 2 or Level 3? And if they are both, which are their inividual correct levels? (I ask because of some incoherence in the wiki)
    • 4 - Mikoto ability's name is Electromaster or Railgun? (I ask because f some incoherence in the wiki)
    • 5 - From where volume the profile picture of Xochitl's page was taken?
    • 6 - In the wiki I saw an image of the Kanzaki SS manga. Is that image part of a whole volume or is a sinle one? And, from it was taken?

    Suggestions:

    • 1 - In the Baka Tsuki's translation of the publisher's summary of Index vol.19, the arc was called "Dark Side of Academy City". If it is right, it should substite the DRAGON arc.
    • 2 - About Stiyl SS, Marks Space SS and Mars SS, even though there aren't official periods, judging from Touma's winter uniform, we can assume that they take place between La Regina del Mare Adriatico and the Acdemy Cty Invasion arcs. Could we add them in the story timeline?
    • 3 - I think that it'd be good if for the characters which appeared in the anime we put even profile images from the novel or the manga, because there's too much time gap between anime and novel, and because it would adorn the wiki.

    Sorry for the amount of request and thank you. --kamina lowell (Talk) 14:03, May 07, 2013

      Answers:

      • First off, "Awaken" is a fan term and the article is a collection of speculations and theories gathered by the fanbase. This is extends to any article which mentions "Awaken" whenever Accelerator gains black or white wings. Now, regarding the "imaginary vectors" debacle, it is most likely derived from the metaphor of using math to deal with "imaginary numbers" that can only be explained in mathematical calculations, to explain Accelerator trying to fiddle around with magic for the first time.
      • The terms the One Who Wields the Power of God and the One Who has Touched the Territory of God are two seemingly innocuous phrases used to differentiate Accelerator and Kakine Teitoku respectively, similar to the recently used terms of "Destriction" and "Creation" in NT6 to refer to Accelerator and Kakine Teitoku respectively. These are mere titles and descriptions of their persons, so it means brandish.
      • Misaka Mikoto's ability is Electromaster, and she is called Railgun because of her special move. There is a Railgun article, though it is categorized as an ability. However, as one can see, unlike the index atwiki, this wiki does not have special categories for special moves like brain shaker or the chaser kick, so whoever written the article categorized it as a separate ability. It should be definitely moved to either the Electromaster article or the Misaka Mikoto abilities section.
      • The image is from the promotional image of the Railgun SS1 novel as advertised in Pseudedigrapha Railgun. It's the part where she introduces herself to Saten Ruiko.
      • There is no Kanzaki SS manga. I believe you are referring to Kanzak SS novel or mistook one of the promotional images for the SS novel advertised in Pseudedigrapha Railgun.

      Responses:

      • Dark Side of Academy City Arc refers to the events in SS1, volume 15 and, volume 19. I have opted not to replace the story arcs that have been used by the fandom because more often than not Kamachi rarely named the story arcs he writes. Instead the articles for story arcs named by Kamachi appear alongside the others. For example, Academy City Invasion Arc is under the God's Right Seat Arc, which was named by Kamachi. Funnily enough, even the Dark Side of Academy City Arc and the British Royal Family Arc (both named in official sources), are under God's Right Seat Arc. So no, I don't think we should replace the arc name, whenever someone wants to bother making a proper article for Battle Royale Arc and DRAGON Arc, put it under the Dark Side of Academy City Arc in the infobox.
      • A rather big assumption. It is too vague a time period to put three short stories in the already incredibly congested timeline unless there is source or an intelleligent conjecture of the dates. These are events that demand accuracy. It's not like something that happened several years prior like Accelerator wrecking Academy City or Agnese being orphaned.
      • I have thought about that several times, and that time is not ripe for them. There is just too few a difference between the three mediums, moreover, the gallery below there is already a gallery below the character's article that is ready to take that into account.

      Thank you very much for the clear and quick answers! About some points:

      Questions

      • 2 - There's even the possibility that the One Who Wields the Power of God and the One Who has Touched the Territory of God have more meaning behind them, after all Kamachi adds few informations bit by bit quite often, and sometime he integrate an argument for pick it up much later in the story, like the "inivsible thing". In the the description of those epithets the author said that they control organic and inorganic, but in terms of a different world, so they could refer only to Accelerator' and Kakine's "angelic forms", and the duality of Distruction and Production may only refer to their normal esper powers. I think this also because in Toaruverse very few seems to know what is the "Awakening" and even Yuiitsu, which is the first to refer to that duality, doesn't seem to fully comprehend it. #1 and #2 could form more than a duality and have more than a connection, like the black wings of Accel formed by Dark Matter.
      • 6 - I don't know if it's from Psuededigrapha, but the title of this image is Kanzaki SS manga [[1]].

      Suggestions

      • 2 - Yes, it's true, but, if I remember right, in all three stories comes the risk of a conflict between science and magic. This arguement couldn't have come out after Acadey City Invasion arc, because a conflict starts right after it, and the events narreted in the stories can't take place before volume 11 because Touma didn't wear a winter uniform before it.

      • And what is the question here? These epithets and titles have only onced been used by Kamachi in their respective novels. These are metaphors to make the prose more poetic in their contexts. Who could not be impressed when men with wings do battle above the city and their powers are describe to be similar to that of God? There is indeed some meaning in these titles, but it is not for this wiki to say much. I have only dabbled in speculations for articles but only because they are supported by facts, and even then, there are many suppositions. This fancy is the duty for the forums and imageboards.
      • That is a misname for there is no Kanzaki SS manga. That is an advertisement, a preview for the upcoming Kanzaki SS Novel back then, that image is drawn by Fukuyawa Motoi and features previews for each chapter of the novel. I believe it has been bundled with a Railgun manga volume as well but I am uncertain.
      • If you believe you have a proper grasp of where it should be put then I don't see why you need to ask me this for you can add it yourself in good faith.
