Splatoon Manga's Headcannon by Goggles-Kun Inkling (talk) 23:16, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
It might be a strange headcannon, but the manga has Inklings wearing hats to tell who they are (example: Goggles wearing Pilot Goggles). Even when they turn into squids, they have their hats on, execpt shrunken in size to fit the squid!

Oh no! Talk pages should not be used like this!

Translator note
hello, this is Vectorcest. first of all, thanks for putting my translations on here! second, i just want to address two things.
 * 1) misnumbering the issues was kind of an accident, it was hard to tell that the first issue (now known as issue #0 as seen in the character profiles in volume 1) when i started translating, so i started with Issue 2 to be safe and it has kind of stuck that way. once the translation is finished i'll fix it all up.
 * 2) about Bobble-chan - translating her name that way was not a mistake. "Knit Cap-chan" is too clunky to use in dialogue, and also, the bobble hat is not named "knit cap" in EITHER English nor Japanese. so for the sake of my sanity and dialogue flow, i changed her name to Bobble-chan. think of it like localization.

thanks again! --Vectorcest (talk) 08:26, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

OK
 * 1) We all make mistakes! It's ok!
 * 2) Sorry for the misunderstanding on why you called Knit Cap "Bobble-Chan". There are other people who actually renamed her Bobble-Chan, supprisingly, like ezokko.
 * 3) about Volume 1 - will you please translate all of it? It seems kinda like a challenge, but hey, what do I know?

Your welcome! 11:42, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

I look ridiculously suprised.

New Issue Alert
Hi! I'm a bit new, but I discovered that Corocoro now has a new issue loosely based on the premise, and characters, of Splatoon 2 seen here (Japanese), but still features the same Team Blue as the main characters. Just so you guys keep note. Thanks! - Andalusio
 * I ALREADY KNEW THAT!!! 11:40, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Ah, cool! Just wanted to make sure that we were all in the same page, since some webpages that mentioned the English translations didn't mention the newest edition. - Andalusio
 * Also a few errors:


 * You kinda said Blue Team as "Team Blue," or switched Blue and Team around.
 * You must do sigs with for tildes! ~
 * Thanks again though. 14:58, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

Internet phobia
Is this section really necessary? It talks way too heavily about a relatively small portion of the fandom IMO, and doesn't serve much other purpose. Naked Goggles could maybe be reworked, but the other stuff isn't highly significant, at least on the level of Woomy or Splat Tim. 04:11, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree with you. This section isn't really needed.--Snowwarrior92 07:03, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I've removed it; besides, they were using the term "phobia" wrong as well. --Splatzoner (talk) 15:18, 22 July 2017 (UTC)

Scanslation links
Why are there links to an illegal scanslation here? Especially considering this series has been officially licensed for an English release and has had two volumes released already. --Morgil (talk) 23:10, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The article was probably written before any officially licensed release. Official release info should definitely replace info about where to find fan versions. Heddy (talk) 23:44, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

Add french release date?
I just want to ask, if everyone finds ok, that I could add the release dates for the French version of the manga (I added already german version) User:OctoBox (talk) 16:23, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

Organization and page title suggestion
It doesn't make much sense to have only content for the "Splatoon era" in the main article, while hiding content for the "Splatoon 2 era" in a separate article. More fair names for the articles could be "Splatoon (manga)" and "List of chapters in Splatoon". The main article should just be an overview, not containing all that chapter specific info. This would fix the problem of the plot section in the main article currently featuring only info from the "Splatoon era", by moving any specific info to the chapter list article and replacing it with an overview of the plot from various arcs.

The "Splatoon (manga)" could look similar this (example link). It could contain an overview of the entire manga, not just the first few volumes. This would be much more fair.

And the list article would be like (example link) and contain any info that isn't suitable for the main overview article. Heddy (talk) 20:57, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

I would like to add that this article is the top Google search result for "Splatoon manga". People are seeing this article before they see the publisher's official website! We should make it look good, not arbitrarily hiding content behind another article just because the characters started wearing Splatoon 2 gear! Heddy (talk) 21:05, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
