[edit] About the Zoldick family

Should the Zoldick family all be put into a separate article from the minor characters? They seem significant enough. .::Arbitrary::. 18:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

IMO the only really significant Zoaldyeck family member is Killua....who is already on the main character's page. I guess it won't hurt to give them their own page...but then there's the question of where to put Killua, on the Zoaldyeck family page or on the main characters page? He would clearly belong to both. Yaksha 12:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, I guess Killua could be like Hisoka--there's a section for him on the Ryodan page, but it just directs to his main page....::Arbitrary::. 20:46, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

okay, finally got around to doing it. Most of the information is directly copy and pasted from this article...so it still needs some fixing. Yaksha 10:34, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meruem

i was just wondering where did you find his name --Greedisland14 04:33, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

His name is stated in one of the manga chapters. The chapter where it shows the ant queen giving birth to meruem (forgot whether or not this was a flashback), she names him.

[edit] double write

ops.. sorry, i listened better then ainime in streming and it looks that Razor (i read in subtitles) and Reiza (i listen) are the same person.. which is the correct write? --83.190.151.205 02:48, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

They are the same person. "Reiza", when pronounced as a japanese person would, sounds like the english word "Razor". So it's essentially the same name. One is a direct japanese romanization. The other is it's equivalent word in english. --`/aksha 13:14, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Acyara Estreda"

Removed this section from the "minor characters" article, since I don't remember there being any such character in the manga / anime, it looks like vandalism to me, especially considering the horrible quality of the section's writing. Whitetigah 15:48, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Also removed "Samara", for the same reasons I listed above (it even had a <character not done> tag after the description...). Whitetigah 15:55, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, defintely vandalism. Thanks --`/aksha 13:14, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reformatting

Would anyone object to me reorganizing the character list? I want to change to something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Naruto_characters

Names in columns, merge "Minor Characters"/"Monsters"/"Hunter's Association" list into this article, then split them off into more intuitive groups, "Greed Island Players", "Chimera Ants", "Hunter Test Examiners/Participants", leaving the rest on the main page.

I'm not sure I like the use of the animanga character infoboxes either, most of them are nearly empty or simply contain the obvious information that they are a HxH character and were created by Togashi. Gender could also be indicated in the description. I like the Naruto list format from an organizational point of view. -Zyrxil (talk) 20:17, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clean Up on Names?

Looking through the article, almost every name is different in Viz' release of Hunter x Hunter then that of what the scanlators came up with. Because of this, we have both names listed in the articles about the character. Right now, it looks a little messy on how we set that up. So can we go through the article and maybe do something like (using Novu/Knov as an example) "Novu, known as Knov in the Viz Media translation, DESCRIPTION" and so on for all the characters instead of having some in parenthesis, unbolded and such? XScar (talk) 18:36, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Do exactly that format, double bold + description, if you want :D Add it into the "for reference" section I wrote at the top of the Talk:HxH page and we can treat that as a guideline for the future. -Zyrxil (talk) 01:55, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Gon's Grandmother?

I was reading through volume 20 today, and Gon says something along the lines of "Only Aunt Mito and Noko." Going off that, could Gon's grandmother's name be Noko? Or could that possibly be someone else on the island? (Gon said that line talking about how to do a pinky swear) I've been trying to look it up and also looked at the credits for episode 1 of the anime, and I couldn't find anything. Just saying this since she is left out of all the wikipedia articles.XScar (talk) 19:01, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

What page? I've never noticed it. -Zyrxil (talk) 01:55, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

It's on page 95, bottom-left panel.XScar (talk) 16:24, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

I guess it could be Mito's grandmother (yes, it's Mito's grandmother, not Gon's grandmother), but it's completely ambiguous, and Gon doesn't use "-san" for Nouko like he does Mito, which he probably would if he was talking about someone that old. In any case, the character's probably too minor for it to matter. -Zyrxil (talk) 21:36, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
