Renaming

From EHWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
An example of a gallery renaming petition that has successfully changed the name of a gallery.

Renaming allows users besides the gallery's uploader to change the name of a gallery. Typically this makes the gallery easier to identify or find via searches.

Additional rulings and clarifications can be found on the talk page.

Process

  • Renaming occurs once a petition option reaches 100% power. Votes can exceed 100%.
    • If multiple options exist past 100% the one with the highest percentage will take priority.
    • Votes on a single option are capped at 200%. This cap is raised if an option over 100% exists but maintains a 100% ceiling from there (e.g. a petition with a 150% option allows for other options to go up to 249%).
  • Users may withdraw or change their vote at any time. Selecting "◯ Blank Vote" will withdraw a vote on that field. Withdrawing votes will cause a gallery to revert to its original name or to the highest option that exceeds 99%.
  • Options left incomplete for more than 7 days are automatically purged.
  • Options with no votes are automatically removed.
  • Ideally a gallery that has not changed content should only require 1 renaming.

The basic styles are as follows:

    • Removing urls that are malicious or lead to content considered obscene by law. The offending link should be removed without changing the remainder of the title.

    • Changing Unicode variants of Latin character to the ASCII representations of said characters, for example: 𝐅𝐮𝐞 > Fue.

Anatomy of A Gallery Name

Convention Name
The convention where the work was sold. Shorthands are used (see below). Never applies to [Digital] releases.
Doujinshi released for conventions for which the event has been canceled should not have a convention name.
Confirmed canceled conventions: Comic Market 98 (C98, 2020-05-02 to 2020-05-05), Reitaisai 17 (2020/05/17), COMIC1*18 (2021-02-07).
Circle Name(s)
The group name(s) under which the artist(s) work. Should only used on works where the circle is explicitly credited.
Artist Name(s)
Writer names are also accepted for novel-type works but they are never to be tagged.
Title(s)
Translated works may include the translated title after a vertical bar (e.g. Nurse wo Kanojo ni Suru Houhou | How to Go Steady with a Nurse). Sub-titles should be separated with a hyphen.
Chapter / Volume
Always abbreviated. Includes a space in the R field (e.g. Vol. 8 / 第8巻). Chapters use ranges as needed (e.g. Ch. 1-5 / 第1-5話).
Magazine or Tankoubon Source
The publication source of the scan. For magazines use title and date only. Magazine title with both English and Japanese (e.g. COMIC 真激) use a space between the English and Japanese portions. Tankoubon sub-titles are not needed.
Parody Name(s)
Titles of the series being parodied. R field should generally match the series' tag while the J field generally uses the non-romanized title.
Language
The language's name in English (e.g. [German], not [Deutsche]). Thai and Vietnamese include their in-language equivalents.
Translator(s)
Only for the R field. Square brackets are preferred but others are also acceptable depending on the translator's own formatting choice.
Special Indicator(s)
Decensored, Colorized, Incomplete, Digital, Sample, Textless, etc.

Usage

  • Only known and applicable information should be used. Any unconfirmed information should be left out. New rename petitions can be made to amend any missing information.
  • The primary focus of renaming is adding or correcting major data (e.g. serious spelling mistakes, wrong convention). It is recommended NOT to rename galleries simply to correct minor mistakes in their formatting (e.g. wrong brackets used, improper casing).
  • Multiple entries in any portion must be separated with commas. Translators may also use spaced plus signs.
  • Use Title Casing unless otherwise indicated by the work.
  • In all cases where the colophon and the cover have conflicting information the colophon wins.
    • Additional information from the cover (such as subtitles, possibly English) is to be included in the R field but should only be added to the J field if it is in the colophon as well.
  • Cosplaying characters should have their corresponding parodies where relevant included in the title.
  • If the creator/parody names exceed 3 in number it is preferred to state "Various" / "よろず" instead.
    • Galleries with more than 3 characters from tagged vtuber agencies should use the agency name rather than "Various". e.g. (Hololive) and (ホロライブ) for hololive talent.
  • Creator names should be written as credited on the work; this is especially the case when a creator's tag is aliased.
  • Languages should only be indicated for translated/rewritten works or wherever such languages would not be expected; e.g. [Japanese] is not needed because it is the default language for most works.
  • Any chapter collection should include the chapter numbers, except complete ones.
  • Leading zeros are only included if they appear explicitly; e.g. "Ch. 7" not Ch. 07", "COMIC1☆3" not "COMIC1☆03".
  • If the translation is released by a group (e.g. Doujin-moe) the group's name takes precedence over that of the translator. Translators who are anonymous or sources that are not official groups (e.g. /a/) should not be credited.
  • A translation of a rewrite is still a rewrite and thus follows that format.

J Field Only

  • For lists in the J field ideographic commas (、) are preferred over batsus (×) and ampersands (&). Ordinary commas are also acceptable; e.g. "大熊狸喜、かん奈" over "大熊狸喜×かん奈".
  • Symbols such as "☆" are mandatory for the J field but are optional for the R field.
  • All caps titles are recommended for the J field but are optional for the R field.
  • Chinese and Korean original works (not translations) use the J field as though it was applicable to them instead of Japanese. Names in these fields must include "[中国語]" or "[韓国語]" (Chinese and Korean respectively). Their non-romanized titles must be included in the R field as well (post-vertical line if a romanized title exists).

Transliteration

  • Always use revised Hepburn romanization.
    • When used as particle, を is "o" not "wo", へ is "e" not "he", and は is "wa" not "ha".
    • 本 is "Bon" if it follows a noun/pronoun; otherwise it is "Hon".
    • Macrons / long vowel diacritics (i.e. ā, ē, ī, ō, ū) should never be used.
    • Commonly accepted occidental words are the exception; e.g. "東京" is "Tokyo" not "Toukyou".
    • Long consonants should directly elongate the previous character's sound. e.g. "えっち" is "Ecchi" not "Etchi".
  • Romanization of an English [loan]word should use proper English instead of romaji.
    • Examples: "シスター" is "Sister" not "Shisutaa", "ラブ" is "Love" not "Rabu", "メイド" is "Maid" not "Meido", "タクシー" is "Taxi" not "Takushii", "ロリコン" is "Lolicon" not "Rorikon".
    • Shortened or clipped English stays as is.
  • Syllabic N's do not receive any special treatment; e.g. "みんな" is "Minna" not "Min'na" or "Min na" or "Min-na".
  • Kanji representing numbers should be romanized as words, not as numbers; e.g. "九" is "Kyuu" not "9".
  • Use hyphens to separate names/pronouns from honorifics; e.g. "Onii-chan" not "Oniichan".
  • Marus (○) or other censors are to be corrected in the R field if the information being censored is known.

Do NOT

  • Use whitespace characters to blank out a field. This is not the same as a blank name and the petition system does not support blanking fields at this time.
    • If a gallery needs a reversion to a blank state, all ongoing petitions should be withdrawn and the gallery uploader should change the name fields accordingly.
  • Use "同人誌", "同人CG集", "同人ソフトCG", "同人ゲームCG", "アダルトコミック", "フルカラーコミック", "エロ", "コスプレ", "成年コミック", "非エロ", or "総集編"; these are all redundant / irrelevant.
  • Use "Complete", "End", "Finished", or any other variants to indicate the end of a series or a work's completeness.
  • Use "Original" or "オリジナル" as a parody. This is already assumed for any gallery without a parody indicator.
  • Use "Raw" as a language. This is already assumed for any gallery without a language indicator.
  • Use a language indicator when it is expected (e.g. "[English]" in Western works that are not translated).
  • Use publisher or website names. Some exceptions apply (typically when no other creator names can be associated with the work).
  • Put the date in any brackets if it's part of the name; e.g. "Comic Megastore 2011-10" not "Comic Megastore [2011-10]".
  • Rename a gallery to describe its contents (rare exceptions exist if the existing title is pejorative or very misleading).
  • Include a translated title in the R field if the gallery is not in that language unless the translator has used a title from a third language.
  • Indicate the quality of the work in any fashion; e.g. "Hi-Res", "High Quality", "300 DPI", etc.
  • Use alternative alphabetic characters (such as full-width) in the R field; e.g. "Nudism Zone" not "Ｎｕｄｉｓｍ Ｚｏｎｅ", or Fue not 𝐅𝐮𝐞.
  • Use the "[Digital]" indicator for CG sets or any work that has no paper version.
    • If the digital CG set is an artbook and a physical variant exists, then the "[Digital]" indicator should still be included.
  • Use the "[Colorized]" indicator for works that were not colored by a 3rd party.
  • Use any commissioners, scanners, decensors, or other such third parties' names.
  • Rename expunged galleries (unless they are due for de-expunging or for administrative purposes).

Rewards

Renaming galleries (as well as expunging them) rewards points for the Cleanup Toplist. Users receive 5 points for being the first to petition and 1 point for voting on an existing petition. If a rename only differs from the current name with whitespace characters it will only reward 1 point. Points are only awarded on the day that the petition is successful and will not be rewarded if the petition does not pass.

Point.png Repeated poor use of rename petitions may result in the user being banned from renaming.

Limitations

Users with < 5 power are unable to start rename petitions.
