Did
create alias kor_meteor -> shing_meteoryte
create alias jadeite_hearts -> hisui_hearts
create alias amber_hearts -> kohak_hearts

@Benit149: Alias jadeite_hearts -> hisui_hearts...

2014-05-04T09:35:41-04:00

Alias jadeite_hearts -> hisui_hearts
amber_hearts -> kohak_hearts

At least these make sense since hisui = jade and kohaku = amber.

New one for Tales of Hearts's upcoming English release:

kor_meteor -> shing_meteoryte

I don't get it either.

@jxh2154: Done

2013-07-28T13:38:33-04:00

Done

I want to add a couple more aliases I forgot to mention earlier:

Alias alice_(tales_of_symphonia_kor) -> alice_(tales)
and grune_(tales_of_legendia) -> grune_(tales)

@jxh2154: Did _(tales) for sophie and Benit's list, and...

2013-05-27T13:31:40-04:00

Did _(tales) for sophie and Benit's list, and he two sages. Also did collet and regal. But about the Fujibayashi characters, can you clarify? It sounds like it would be a spoiler in which case we stick with their non-spoiler names.

@Benit149: By that logic, these characters should also be...

2013-05-06T17:41:21-04:00

By that logic, these characters should also be considered for the *_(tales) alias:

mao_(tor) -> mao_(tales) (he already uses the title abbreviation in his tag)
alvin_(tales_of_xillia) -> alvin_(tales)
lulu_(tales_of_xillia_2) -> lulu_(tales)
victor_(tales_of_xillia_2) -> victor_(tales)

Official rominizations from the Japanese PS2 website.

Sheena's family name seems to be kept secret as to not spoil her relation to Suzu. The proper name is used in the sequel's website.

You're gonna need to cite sources because colette appears to be a totally legit romanization of コレット.

Wikia doesn't count.

In most cases, Danbooru goes with the Japanese names for the character not just in the Tales series, but almost all Japanese franchises.

However, this doesn't seem to be the case with Tales of Symphonia's characters. While minor romanization differences, I feel, can be overlooked, there should be at least two major changes that should be made.

genis sage -> genius sage
raine sage -> refill sage

Four minor changes include:

Colette Brunel, who's Japanese name, is usually translated as Collet Brunel (コレット・ブルーネル)
Sheena Fujibayashi, who, as a ninja, is usually identified by family name first (Fujibayashi Shiina 藤林しいな).

The same goes for her distance descendant, Suzu Fujibayashi (Fujibayashi Suzu 藤林すず).

Finally, there's Regal Bryant, who's last name is "Bryan" in the Japanese version. (Regal Bryan リーガル・ブライアン)

Next: Would it be possible to change certain tags to use title initals or "(tales)" instead of "character_(installment)" for ease of use?

e.g.: sophie_(tales_of_graces) -> sophie_(tog) or sophie_(tales)
