List of Naruto characters

[edit]

The result of months of merging and whatnot. Here is WP:ANIME's first prospective FL character list. Cheers, Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 18:20, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • "who can utilize" → "who can use"
  • logical quotation issues such as ""cool genius,"" → ""cool genius"," and ""the archetypal rival character."" → ""the archetypal rival character"." per WP:PUNC, where the punctuations only belong in the quotes if it should logically belong there, such as if it's a full sentence and could use a period

    • "This is a list of characters ..." start with something more interesting like "The Naruto anime and manga series feature a number of ..." perhaps?
    • "two and a half" I fancy this should be hyphenated?
    • "progress as ninja in skill and character." reads awkwardly to me.
    • "ninja of Konohagakure " not really necessary to repeat where he's from since that point was made in the previous paragraph. Especially as you have Konohagakure again at the end of this sentence.
    • as a base for " as a basis?
    • the actual manga " is actual required here?
    • "he utilizes occasionally changes.[10] For instance, he utilized " can we change one of the utilized to, say, used, for some variety?
    • "After an encounter with his brother in Part I, Sasuke is beaten physically and mentally" wasn't he beaten in the encounter? Or perhaps you could say Sasuke is left beaten...
    • "After an incident " - probably needs a little expanding.
    • "double team opponents " double-team?
    • "traveling with his arms and legs " I know what you mean but this reads oddly - we all travel with our arms and legs!
    • "things actual dogs " never sure of the need for actual here.
    • "twenty-three and twenty-four" 23 and 24.
    • Just be careful about overlinking. Naruto Uzumaki, for instance, is linked in four consecutive sections...
    • Shame that Ikuko Tani doesn't have an article - the only red link!
    • Page ranges in the references should use the en-dash, not the hyphen to separate them.
  • Otherwise, a really really good piece of work. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:13, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This looks good. I think Gary and TRM have found everything, so I have nothing to do but support. Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 17:16, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
