X4B profile @ WtW
It's あまた as in "many; numerous, etc" instead of あたま, "head". Just a really small thing I wanted to point out.--Ainz ( talk 13:53, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Oops, looks like I looked through too fast. Thanks for pointing that out! :> Though my lousy translations are mostly to give people a rough idea until Kryten gets his better translations done, lol --Garmmon 14:53, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

神馬
wwwjdic gives "神馬 【しんめ】 (n) sacred horse; ED ", and japedia uses the same.

Is this specified in the kana for the SXW profile, or something?KrytenKoro06 07:34, 25 March 2011 (CDT)
 * The profile just uses plain hiragana: http://img813.imageshack.us/img813/4171/x4bprofile.png --Garmmon 07:51, 25 March 2011 (CDT)
 * Well, that is bizarre. Thanks for catching that, and if any of the other Mode transcriptions were off, feel free to change them.KrytenKoro06 08:30, 25 March 2011 (CDT)
 * I actually read it as 'shinba' too before noticing the dictionary's pronunciations, lol. But yeah, I've gone through the XW Digimon and made any corrections I could find. --Garmmon 10:19, 25 March 2011 (CDT)

Transcribed profiles
Hello, thanks again for all the Battle Chronicle profiles! If time permits, would it also be possible to transcribe the profiles of Psychemon and Cho·Hakkaimon at the TV Asahi site? --Grandy02 10:22, 1 December 2011 (CST)
 * I've posted the transcribed profiles at their respective talk pages :) --Garmmon 11:31, 1 December 2011 (CST)

Brave Tamer sprites
Hello, thanks for uploading the many sprites. Regarding the Brave Tamer sprites, I noticed that basically all of them (except for the new Digimon, of course) are identical to the D1 Tamers sprites (as seen here). The sprites at that site are in slightly different shades, the same goes for the English version Anode/Cathode Tamer sprites (Spriters Resource) I uploaded before I discovered that site. I think it would be best to label them all as D1 Tamers, or do you think those slightly different shades should all be treated as separate sprites? --Grandy02 14:26, 25 April 2013 (CDT)
 * No problem :) I think the slightly different shades aren't all that noticeable, and most people who browse this site probably wouldn't mind them too much so I'd say just use any one version of each sprite instead of having all the different shaded sprites. I'm also not entirely sure whether all the sprites I uploaded are from Brave Tamer or D-1 Tamers, since I ripped them a long time ago I think and just stuffed them in the same folder, so yeah I think we can just label them as D-1 Tamers. --Garmmon 06:17, 26 April 2013 (CDT)

Just a question, you added the Whamon sprites to the page of the Adult version, is that confirmed? I don't know about D-Project, but the sections added to Whamon Perfect's page would imply that at least in the Ryo games, it is Perfect. --Grandy02 08:42, 28 April 2013 (CDT)
 * My bad, I didn't realise Whamon referred to the Adult Whamon. I'll go change them now --Garmmon 10:04, 28 April 2013 (CDT)

New Digimon
Hey, can you spread the news to other users that there is a silhouette of a new Digimon on Digisoul.net? You can find the latest news by clicking on the News tab and scrolling down below the MagnaKidmon update and you will be able to find the new Digimon silhouette.

Sincerely, Kevin
 * You could just directly tell the admins in charge of the news... Anyway it's not confirmed/has a proper name yet or anything, I'm sure that when it's confirmed and its appearance/name are actually revealed it will be reported in the news section. --Garmmon (talk) 06:36, 16 June 2013 (CDT)

Lilithmon Profiles
Hello! Could you please check this and this? Thank you very much in advance. --Shadow Shinji (talk) 20:04, 30 July 2016 (CDT)
 * done! --Garmmon (talk) 00:59, 31 July 2016 (CDT)

So that I can update them on Digimon Wiki
Do you have a record of which profiles you've corrected?KrytenKoro06 (talk) 08:27, 16 August 2016 (CDT)
 * Lighdramon, Neptunemon, Orochimon, Gokuwmon. Hope I didn't miss anything (I had to dig through my own edits to find them haha). If you see any edits you disagree with feel free to bring it up! --Garmmon (talk) 09:08, 16 August 2016 (CDT)
 * On Chackmon, you translated "誰にも頼られないと" as "if it does not receive any orders". The closest example I can find for this phrase is here, which translates it as "not relied on or trusted upon by anybody". Would "It will have nothing to do if nobody is relying on it" work for you?KrytenKoro06 (talk) 09:26, 16 August 2016 (CDT)
 * '頼る' does mean 'to rely on' in general, but I changed that line because it was referring to the previous line which states '自分から行動することは稀で、主として誰かの頼みや命令に応えて動く. '(Since it rarely acts of its own volition, it primarily operates in response to someone's requests or orders.) The 頼られない in the next line is directly referring to that line (since it rarely acts of its own volition, so when it doesn't receive any requests or orders, it worries about its purpose in life), so I changed it to make it flow from the previous sentence; 'It will have nothing to do if nobody is relying on it' is a more literal translation, so it comes down to translation styles preferring more literal vs more idiomatic. I'm more idiomatic myself but if you prefer more literal do feel free to change it! It's hard to strike a balance sometimes --Garmmon (talk) 09:59, 16 August 2016 (CDT)
 * I get that. I feel like using "rely" allows for a more general case (since it "primarily" operating allows for it to sometimes act on its own), and changes up the words being used to avoid repetition.KrytenKoro06 (talk) 15:36, 17 August 2016 (CDT)
 * In that case feel free to edit if you feel any of my edits/translations can be phrased better :) I'm not super good at English writing myself --Garmmon (talk) 08:18, 18 August 2016 (CDT)
 * For Neptunemon, I believe Blue Digizoid is mentioned in a clause that defines the Chrome Digizoid, which is the subject of the verb できて. Also, 海中 seems to be used for boats as well, which would imply that Neptunemon can travel at great speed even when not submerged. Would "The Scalemail which covers Neptunemon's body is made of Chrome Digizoid that has been transformed into "Blue Digizoid", which excels in agility, so it is capable of moving at terrifying speeds at sea." work for you?KrytenKoro06 (talk) 10:34, 25 August 2016 (CDT)
 * It's true that the profile is defining 'Chrome Digizoid' that has been turned into Blue Digizoid, I just changed it because I thought the original sentence was phrased awkwardly :p I think your rephrasing works (though I'd change 'The Scalemail which covers' to 'The Scalemail covering' just to avoid the double which). btw i've changed Skull Mammon and Gaioumon as well, if you'd like to check --Garmmon (talk) 12:00, 25 August 2016 (CDT)

Digimon Xros Loader
Hello Garmmon. I have gathered information about each leader and subordinate in the Digimon Xros Loader and I wanted to make a table similar to what you've done for different sets of cards (See: Super Digica Taisen Set 1 for instance) including this information. Could you help me doing this table? I have seen that there are some templates involved. Thank you in advance.         --Shadow Shinji (talk) 18:44, 5 October 2016 (CDT)
 * Hi! I'm not really the best person to ask about templates since I'm not too knowledgeable about creating them, haha..Ainz is responsible for doing most of the work to make the SDT card list template work the way it does now, so maybe you could check with Ainz instead? Sorry! I could probably come up with a basic table if I have time, but I haven't looked into and am not too sure about how the current card list template works if that is how you want the table to be formatted. --Garmmon (talk) 09:21, 6 October 2016 (CDT)
 * No problem thanks a lot. --Shadow Shinji (talk) 12:27, 7 October 2016 (CDT)

Kozenimon
Hello Garmmon. Do you know the meaning in English of Kozenimon's attack "Itchi Dan Ketsu" (イッチ・ダン・ケツ)? I've found this extract but I'm not sure if it is related somehow or not. Thanks in advance. --Shadow Shinji (talk) 12:12, 3 November 2016 (CDT)
 * イッチ・ダン・ケツ is a katakana spelling of 一致団結 (Icchidanketsu), which means 'many people working together to achieve a common cause' (not sure if there's a better/shorter way to phrase it, haven't gone to think about it). Skimming through the dictionary profile, it also states Kozenimon's Icchidanketsu attack involves a whole bunch of Kozenimon charging at the opponent. Hope this helps! --Garmmon (talk) 01:27, 4 November 2016 (CDT)
 * Thank you! I've added the information onto the page. :) --Shadow Shinji (talk) 08:12, 4 November 2016 (CDT)

List of Mythological References in Digimon
Just wondering, does your list include direct references to different mythology like Wisemon's book and the Deva's symbols, weapons? I've added a link on the Misc tab on the Main Page so it can be placed alongside the pop culture and Lovecraft stuff. --Ainz ( talk 20:24, 5 November 2016 (CDT)
 * Ah I have the Devas under Hindu/Buddhism, I don't have Wisemon yet though and I'm not sure if I'm missing any other Digimon too. o: Haha I don't mind turning it into an actual page, but most of the descriptions I just c&p'd from Wikipedia so I'm not sure if that part needs a bit of cleaning up :p --Garmmon (talk) 01:06, 6 November 2016 (CST)

Black Seraphimon
Do you kmow the meaning of this 黒翼堕翼? It is a title given to Black Seraphimon in Digimon Collectors, but no idea what can refer to. --Shadow Shinji (talk) 12:06, 31 March 2017 (CDT)
 * It literally means 'Black Wings, Fallen Wings'. Black and Fallen Wings? I can't think of a nicer way to phrase this atm... --Garmmon (talk) 12:33, 31 March 2017 (CDT)
 * Oh I see. Do you think that this is a title for Black Seraphimon, or just some random words put together? I wonder that, cause Ophanimon FM received the "Fallen Holy Mother" title in a similar event from Collectors. Thanks Garm. --Shadow Shinji (talk) 13:46, 31 March 2017 (CDT)
 * No prob; I tried searching it and from what I saw, it looks more like maybe an event subtitle or something? But I'm not the most help here because I've never played Collectors and don't really know the context, it could very well be a title too. --Garmmon (talk) 14:14, 31 March 2017 (CDT)

Ruler of the Night
Garm, could you translate the text in the card Oα-004 from the Alpha Evolve card game? It is the card where Grand Dracumon is depicted in front of his castle, and maybe there's something interesting about his lore. Thanks for reading :) --Shadow Shinji (talk) 11:16, 7 April 2017 (CDT)
 * I could, but there's absolutely nothing about his lore, it's all game mechanics :p --Garmmon (talk) 11:27, 7 April 2017 (CDT)
 * I see...what a wasted opportunity...Thanks anyways! --Shadow Shinji (talk) 05:49, 8 April 2017 (CDT)

Profiles Translation
Excuse me Garm, could you check the translation of the profiles of Mercuremon and Grottemon please? --Shadow Shinji (talk) 11:35, 12 April 2017 (CDT)
 * I did the best I could. Hope it helps! --Garmmon (talk) 12:11, 12 April 2017 (CDT)
