Yuuri Masuda rumor (unconfirmed)

[edit]

As this is the second time I had to remove this piece of unconfirmed rumor about the singer Yuuri Masuda which quotes There is a persistent rumor that she is a lesbian, as this is not a place for unconfirmed rumors, that piece of quote will have to be removed and must remain away from this page as it is a piece of unsourced material.

Cleanup

[edit]

Doesn't seem to look like other band pages.|Needs a side bar that looks like other bands, eg D'espairsRay where it shows their Genres and Years Active and stuff.--Eloc Jcg 03:02, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've added an infobox and therefore remove the cleanup notice. tomlind 16 July 2007

Presence in Lucky Star

[edit]

Can somebody confirm whether they are the artist behind the song "Gravity" featured as a parody insert in Lucky Star's 6th episode? The full version of this song has finally been released in Lucky Star Music Fair CD, and credits the song to "M.O.E.V". Very possibly can be them (with the name change to indicate they were doing it as parody and whatnot). Need a source of confirmation. Roku sky (talk) 19:31, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2011 Concerts Appearances

Move article to M.O.V.E (May 2010)

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Move (Japanese band). There's little agreement here, but this name appears widely supported, is unambiguous, and compliant with MOSTM. Ucucha 21:01, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]



m.o.v.eM.O.V.E — Relisted. Vegaswikian (talk) 23:08, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As per Wikipedia:MJ#Capitalization of words in Roman script since it's an acronym (or at least is structured as an acronym). Plus the article says that the band are occasionally referred to as M.O.V.E anyway. --Prosperosity (talk) 07:30, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll also support a move to Move (band) or Move (Japanese band) as opposed to M.O.V.E, they both seem accurate enough. --Prosperosity (talk) 05:10, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • 1) Is it really an acronym, and if so of what? 2) It appears that the name is stylized in lowercase. 3) The periods also appear to be a typographic effect. Unless it can be shown that it is an acronym, I would oppose a move to M.O.V.E, but support a move to Move (band) per MOS:JP. —Farix (t | c) 19:37, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move (September 2010)

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page not moved. There is a rough consensus opposing, and no prospect of consensus to move. Andrewa (talk) 21:20, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]



Move (Japanese band)M.o.v.e — The article should be moved back to the original title of the page, because there was absolutely no reason to have moved the page in the first place. The band is called "m.o.v.e". I do not understand why MOS:TM means we should rename something merely because it is not an acronym. The fact that this is still pronounced the same as the English word "move" should not preclude that we use the name that is used on every other language project and all print media. The previous discussion had no consensus, so the page should have never been moved in the first place.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:59, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. MOS:TM says, in the "General Rules" section: "Follow standard English text formatting and capitalization rules, even if the trademark owner considers nonstandard formatting "official" "
My understanding is that fullstops between letters are not considered standard formatting in English unless we are dealing with an acronym.
Similarly, MOS:JP says, in the "Titles of books and other media" section: "Within independent writing in Japanese about these products, it is not unusual for many of these idiosyncrasies to be preserved; and thus Japanese-language Wikipedia has articles titled: "KAMEN feat.石井竜也", "BEST〜first things〜", "m・a・z・e", "L×I×V×E"
Within the English-language Wikipedia, however, capitalization should be conventional (see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters), e.g. "BEST" only so written if pronounced "bee ee ess tee"), and dashes, nakaguro (dots) and the like should be cut"
While this article is not a book or media title, the guidelines still seem to explain how English Wikipedia rules do not have to be slave to the non-standard or decorative formatting used in Japanese publications or on other language projects. --DAJF (talk) 07:01, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that as far as I understand, the band have only used this pronunciation of their name in one instance. This is not a definitive source that this is how the name should always or only be spoken. If you can establish, reliably, that the band is now only ever referred to in the spoken word as an acronym, then there could be an argument for the article to be located at MOVE (band) (the "." would not be used, see Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Acronyms_and_abbreviations. As for artistic styling, Wikipedia rigorously enforces a policy of not lending undue weight to non-standard formatting. Such style issues are dealt with in the lead and/or an image on the page, but are not given unnecessary weight in article text, as for any other self respecting publication.

Pronunciation

[edit]

There are issues raised in the latest Requested Move above, as to how the band name is pronounced. Please find sources and, citing them, clarify the article lead on this point. Andrewa (talk) 21:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

English website

[edit]

The official English website http://www.electropica.com/en currently results in a "404 not found" message, but the "English" link on the Japanese site still leads to that same URL. Does anyone know if the lack of an English website is only a temporary problem (e.g. due to a site revamp) or if it's a permanent problem? --MikeZ (talk) 16:26, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
