[edit] Does Toya belong in the LGBT characters in comics category?

I noticed that Yukito is listed in this category, and I think maybe Toya should be in it. It seems implied he's at least bisexual and it's hinted that at the end of the series he reciprocates Yukito's feelings. Thoughts? Katsuhagi 18:22, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I do wonder why he was removed suddenly without any discussion, it seems a bit rushed to me. Granted very few Japanese comics are explicit in terms of sexual orientation, but Toya by the end does seem to show attraction to both Kaho and Yukito. This was also a young girls' comic, so the issue would probably only be addressed in hints. This just feels a bit too sudden to me especially since Yukito has been on that list for quite some time.

[edit] Touya/Toya/Tōya

Any chance we could have some sort of consensus on this? Shiroi Hane 07:19, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

I go for Toya. And no, we don't care about "accuracy" of a romanization ('sides, Touya is not really any more accurate than Toya). TOKYOPOP and Geneon use Toya. WhisperToMe 06:19, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
I love "Touya" best, but it seems that romanization isn't as "standard" as the Hepburn romanization, which is why people are arguing Tōya. Since it's electronic, doing Tōya isn't much harder than Toya as far as typing it, but would it be a hassle anyway? As stated, English media uses Toya. --Crisu 11:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
I think Toya works best. Even to someone who didn't know Japanese I think the pronounciation is obvious enough. Katsuhagi 21:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

As commented in the article, we've settled on using Toya when referring to him in the Cardcaptor Sakura universe and using Tōya in the Tsubasa .. uh .. multiverse. --Crisu 03:55, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to restate this since people have been editing it otherwise. I think I'll add a note at the top of the page about that. Katsuhagi 22:46, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Mirror

I notice someone has deleted the section detailing Touya's relationship with the Mirror Card. Since it was unnecessarily long, I rather agree with that decision, but does anyone else feel differently? --KagamiNoMiko 07:42, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Personally I believe different and think it should be redirected to the Mirror's section in the Clow Card's list. trainra 07:47, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Um. I don't think I got what you meant. Do you want to take the deleted section and move it to The Mirror's entry? If so, no opposition from me.--KagamiNoMiko 14:58, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Yep, re-reading my post I see where you got confused, sorry. trainra 06:47, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Toya 007.jpg

Image:Toya 007.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
