-There have been no serious new additions since the last update, I //have//, however, made a few small changes here and there. Mostly correcting grammatical or spelling mistakes. Besides that, I opened up the [[lb:name translation]] article again and added two new names. I believe it will now be in the same place as [[lb:review_collection]] and [[lb:neat words]] - that being, something I can update quickly and with minimal effort.\\ +There have been no serious new additions since the last update, I //have//, however, made a few small changes here and there.

-One strange issue that's cropped up recently actually has to do with the reviews. I've started putting far more effort into them, evident from the one for [[lb:review_collection#unciv]]. This technically means that reviews don't count as low-effort anymore, so that article will be updated far less. So technically, I've replaced one low-effort article with another.+One strange issue that's cropped up recently actually has to do with the reviews.

 Now to explain something more significant. Roughly a year ago, if I remember correctly, I made the decision to impose some 'standards' on my media articles. Back then, I had the idea to make each media article set an alternative to the various fan-run wikis online, one that's written in a more relaxed style, with more relevant information, and with more accurate information. To accomplish this, I decided to impose a similar structure on all the articles, and even split them in predictable ways. Over the course of this past week, and today especially, I realized this was a massive mistake. So, I have chosen to abandon it, and going back to the 'anarchic' style of before.\\ Now to explain something more significant.

-    * The major exceptions here were [[lb:Great teacher onizuka]] and [[lb:toaru]] where I managed to stick to the structure fairly well, but I believe this was only because there was a lot of content to keep me interested in it. This issue is most noticeable with [[lb:litbus]] or [[lb:Charlotte]].+    * The major exceptions here were [[lb:gto]] and [[lb:toaru]] where I managed to stick to the structure fairly well, but I believe this was only because there was a lot of content to keep me interested in it.
