@Bunai; "frustrating" is more like it. I am currently fighting a delete order on Anon Kanon's page... The reason is the person who put it for delete under the grounds "the sources don't comply with video game reliable sources". They recommended all pages be redirected to "List of Vocaloid Products".

So yeah... I left a message to say the page is being retired and that Anon Kanon basically have nothing to do with video games and all sources come from either Yamaha, their own homesite, or their twitter account... And links to why the products page cannot be used to house information, as its kinda being retired at the end of this month.

Basically, the page has been put up for deletion based on ignorance. It complies with music and speech synthesis related pages, not the video gaming ones. And as each Vocaloid is made independantly as part of a franchise by separate companies, yes, they can have their own pages so long as their well and truly written to warrant it. :-/

I've only got 10 vocaloids to set up pages for, private vocals will be handled by the engine pages. The only one who won't be getting a page just yet is Unity-Chan, but I noticed last week a possible problem, as she is to do with Unity itself. I put Leon, Lola and Miriam up to create pages yesturday, but house chores at home stopped me. So I ended up buffing up some quick merchandising to some pages to fill them up. I'm not too interested in taking that too far, that was just part of a routine drive to buff up Anon Kanon's pages to make them not Stubs. So things like Vocadol were added. I then ended up doing related pages a bit to make them match, otherwise it would have been really odd.

Things like this are why I don't like wikipedia, it was much worst though in 2003, when the site was still quite young. Everyone wanted wikipedia to be something it was not back then. I think the reason Anon Kanon ws put up based on video Gaming grounds was just, as I said, ignorance. I have in last week found two people on DA who didn't know Teto was not a Vocaloid. So there are still plenty of pople out there as fans who are getting it wrong...

Interesting enough though, the imagine version I put up for Miku (which came off our own pages) for V3's box appeared in a new article last week. So this stuff does get around. :-/

I find with wikipedia a lot of the editing is a case of "one thing leading to another". Its harder as well. All you need is someone who knows nothing on a subject to pull up one of the Vocaloids and things get delayed a day or two while you sort it.
