:There was a previous discussion on this [[Talk:Touhou_Wiki/Archive_13#Nuke_.22Necrofantasia.22_into_.22Necrophantasia.22|here]], but nothing ever happened and the status quo was unchanged. At this point, I personally think there needs to be a very strong case in order to change the status quo. --[[User:DTM|DTM]] ([[User talk:DTM|talk]]) 19:51, 31 August 2017 (UTC) | :There was a previous discussion on this [[Talk:Touhou_Wiki/Archive_13#Nuke_.22Necrofantasia.22_into_.22Necrophantasia.22|here]], but nothing ever happened and the status quo was unchanged.

Limiting everything to the "status quo", especially when it comes to spelling mistakes, is the worst thing you can do. It's not a real argument at all. | |||
"Necrophantasia" breaks parity with "Necro-Fantasy", which is the entire reason ZUN wrote "Necro-Phantasia" like that. I have no idea how the community went this long without noticing it anyway... actually I totally do, they don't read documentation and they like to make things up besides. Whatever. You can also bet that he would have used "Necrophantasy" had it appeared. | |||
The correct solution is to use "Necro-Fantasia" anywhere that doesn't provide a transliteration, use "Necrophantasia" for Magical Astronomy specifically, and if an album does its own transliteration just use that for that album. Simplest and most accurate, I really don't know how a solution could be better than that. [[User:Despatche|Despatche]] ([[User talk:Despatche|talk]]) 17:25, 3 October 2017 (UTC) |
