Talk:Lan Fan

Regarding the problem that was reported involving the proper transliteration of Ran Fan's name, the widely accepted spelling is with an "R" rather than an "L". Though Viz Media has been known to spell her name with an "L", Viz has also been known to let misspellings, incorrect transliterations and continuity errors seep into their translation of the manga. Usually, I would say the article is best left the way it is, but now i realize the latest Japanese release episode may include an eyecatch of her with her name spelled whichever way Arakawa has decided to spell it. As I don't watch the fansubs, opting instead to wait for FUNimation's stream on Thursdays, I'm going to leave the article alone for now and probably revert any moves to "Lan Fan" before Thursday or made by anyone other than an admin. I'll know for sure in two days. If anyone REALLY can't wait to have the article changed before then, I ask that they upload a screencap of the eyecatch with the character and name on it. I won't accept just screens of fan subtitles with the name spelled "L", nor will I blindly trust the spelling from FUNimation's subtitles, as even they have been known to make mistakes. Only an eyecatch will tell for sure. If it is an "L", I will move the page.CorbeauKarasu 19:55, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
