435:. The lead is intended to be bulletpoint details about the article's contents which is further stipulated on in the later sections. Even if you have no further information to add, you can at least try to phrase it differently. Secondly, the reason the voice template use is because it does its job in clearly conveying information (not to mention it's the exact same thing used in the JP wiki). Using "This character is voiced by person in this thing and by that person in another thing" prose is just terrible and conveys information badly. Even articles that aren't about Japanese media know this and stick to the "Voiced by:" format. Your episode summaries also have several flaws, mainly concerning "children's book" sentence structure. 528:
stuff all together in a Printed media section (barring the idea of having seperate sections for Novels and Manga). Point being, KonoSuba doesn't really have the notability of Sherlock to warrant that kind of formatting and is better suited to following the format of other light novel articles (no point complaining about OtherStuff, because that is in essence what both of us are doing), and as an Animedia article, that is the format a lot of users are going to be comfortable with. I took out the Drama CD section based on other editor's feedback concerning its lack of notability. Maybe if a game or mobile app gets announced, they can both go in an Other Media section, but for now, it's referenced in the lead so that's fine enough.
195: 496:
leveled with its adaptations. I leveled the original works by Akatsuki as higher importance than its adaptations. As for how the adaptions were arranged. MoS "Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading". Notice how you removed the Drama CD section to comply to that? That aside, you just went against WP:Lead. The body must also cover the same thing as the lead.
80: 90: 53: 22: 801:
it needs to be toned down as far as the lead is concerned. My version's more about taking what's there and compacting it to fewer sentences (ie. more "This thing by this guy was released on this date." and less "There is a thing. It was done by this guy. It was released on this date.") Basically, an abridged version of the details that the later sections provide.
913:(character name, voice credits, and description) vs. international book format (character name, description and voice credits all written in prose). Ignoring how everything works in other articles, I do feel the animanga format lends itself better to this kind of article, as it displays its information more clearly and organized than in prose. 160: 1067:
While I'm not sure how that helps attract viewers, the added description of its comedy elements does give the lead a bit more meat without repeating the entire plot section. In the future, though, I would stick to using "and" over "&", the latter of which should only be used for titles and not in
928:
I would change "Print media" to "Novels" since the original was a web novel and can include the information about the light novels, and "Releases" to "Volume lists". The character list format is fine. Whether "voiced by" is up front or in prose is not critical as only the main characters are listed.
912:
I'd say the lead is in a good spot right now, with each point sticking to a sentence each maximum and a little sentence building on the topic of the original web novels without going too detailed. The only thing that's left to debate is the matter of the character list format, ie. the animanga format
800:
The problem I have with the lead is that its summary of the plot is more or less the exact same thing as what's written in the plot section, right down to the whole "acute stress syndrome" remark. And considering that more or less makes up most of episode one's summary, you can understand why I think
763:
Good point. Removed section headers from the light novel and manga headers (they're now just bolded text). Production would probably need to have more information detailing the creation of the series, rather than the publishing information included in the media section, though I don't know where that
527:
I don't think Sherlock Holmes is a good comparison here, as the adaptations for that series are wildly varied and numerous both in media and takes on the story. In the case of KonoSuba, the web novel, light novel and manga all have the involvement of the original author, so it makes sense to put that
1086:
Genres need to be sourced. Can you provide reviews to reliable sources that indicate the series to be Parody or "Fantasy Rebirth", whatever that term means? Also, Knowledge is not an advertisement. We should not pick genres or attribute statements like "fantasy rebirth" to attract viewers or improve
399:
Repetition is not an excuse to remove information. Rewording is not necessary as well. Character lists should be done in prose form; anime articles use the terrible anime voice template because of outdated enforcement. Do not level the main works made by the author, Akatsuki, with other adaptations.
869:
I would recommend a Release section containing the original "canon" material, which would have the 5-volume novel series and the main light novel series if the latter became the author's main way of continuing the series. If the light novel material is all retread of the five novels, then move that
531:
Knowledge is an open source, meaning that anyone pretty much has the right to overhaul everything if they think it improves the overall feel of the article. Clearer and more concise sentences, streamlined presentation of characters and voice actors, less repetition when neccessary (ie. the points
499:

495:
I'm going to have to expand on my answer then. Conforming=a more common ground between all other mediums such as English films and books for increased accessibility. Rather than explaining every part, I'll just point out the two main parts. Notice how the original works of Sherlock Holmes isn't

Your opinion of yours and my structure/wording remains subjective. It looks like you just ignored positive comments in the RFC about my structure, and declaring yours is automatically the better one. Rather than imitating one of the arguments you've had with Ryulong, let the RFC determine the
475:
You do realise that "I'm conforming this structure to other non-anime books and films." and "This style has been used before in my previous GAs" falls under "Other stuff". You really need to point out how your structure is better over this one, lest people accuse you of "owning the

It'll help attract more viewers! KonoSuba is actually the most popular show this season in Japan (It's actually the only show not flopping this season), but is doing poorly here (MAL, Reddit etc) because of the stigma surrounding Studio DEEN & fantasy rebirth shows.
679:- I've more or less pointed out my main reasons above, but the basic points are clearer presentation and less dead weight (eg. repetition of full paragraphs, using multiple sentences for what can be summarised in one, prose over templates for voice credits, etc). 1171:
Although the article has been updated with the recent mobile game I noticed it bares no mention of the TTRPG books. I don't have a lot of knowledge myself but I am aware of it's 1st edition release in JPN and ENG, a companion book, and a third JPN only release.
980:
Speaking on the subject of adaptations, does the light novel count as an 'adaptation' considering it's by the same author? I'd assume something like 'revision' or 'reboot' of the web novels would be more fitting (though the right word to use escapes me).
894:
The main issue there is there's not a lot of information pertaining to the web novel version aside from when it was published. I'm not sure there's a need to split the spin-off novel off from the main novels, considering they're by the same author.
427:
Thing is, this is an animedia-based article and it should be presented that way. The structure used by many anime, manga, and either other light novel articles works because it relays content clearly and accessibly, and not just in the context of a
278:– Official English title (based on Crunchyroll, confirmed by ANN). Would have moved it myself, but apparently the proposed title is in the Title blacklist, so I'm first starting a discussion to see what should be done about it. 1000:
Removing RFC and article off watchlist. With Wonchop's aggressive assertions in the edit history and the degradation of the article such as inclusion of minor characters, I no longer care enough to work on this series.
977:
I dunno. It still kinda comes down to my general "why use several words for something you can explain in a few" philosophy. Surely it's easier for viewers to understand the information in a list format?
1179: 613:
Yeah, it's pretty much stopped being a "one way or the other" judgement call and is now just taking input from other editors to incorporate changes that take into account both arguments.
847:
Quick reminder that the main article is being edited with feedback. Right now story summary is kept to a simple sentence, with the rest of the lead explaining the other media.
400:
I'm conforming this structure to other non-anime books and films. This style has been used before in my previous GAs, and there is no justification for undoing this structure.

I'll tweak my answer as I think the prose method is more useful for this series as the adaptations have appeared some years later than the original work.

Well, conveniently enough, a PC game was announced to be bundled with the BDs, so I've put the drama CD together with that in an Other media section.
