 :The extensive publication information fills up too much crap on the main article. The plot should go with the lists of chapters (they have a parameter for it in the template). I'm keeping reception, production, and censorship on the main article. I've put Ghost in the Shell exactly where I think it should be at this stage.—Ryulong (琉竜)  
 ::Yeah, but those parameters are better suited for summary, not extensive plot and longer on-goiing series such as Naruto or Bleach. The original should at least be covered in detail in the main article. Publication History is key aspect of the manga. Example: Ghost in the Shell 1.5 chapters originally ran in Young Magazine as ""Ghost in the Shell 2"" but were delayed to be released so they can be released later as ""Ghost in the Shell 1.5"" simply adding their first release dates doesn't really help (especially Ghost in the shell 2 that has three versions). And again, idk who, but someone made a bad set up with ""Publication History"" as someone added the unrelated box set of posters and 3D papercraft book. So the reason why it looks huge and unreadable is the fact that it has an additional fourth paragraph completely unrelated to the publication history of the manga. Remember, its a list and a child article, so that info still has to reflect in the main article. And unlike episode lists, this list-article isn't made due to size issues.   
 :::I'm treating it as an episode list so the main article doesn't get bogged down with the details of every single scene. The other books don't need to be mentioned in much detail, you're right, but we do not need to give all that level of detail on the main article when just the publication dates of the original manga are needed.—Ryulong (琉竜)  
 ::::But you can't treat this like an episode list, a normal episode list would be 6 to 8 times longer. Publication history is long for a reason. And its a bit exagerrated to say every single scene (although I agree with 1.5, but gits2 and gits1 were properly summarized). If you read the manga, the first and the last three chapters played were relevant to the main plot. The rest were side stories. Mentioning the three versions of GITS2 is simple too. ""Extended version"" ran in Young Magazine, ""Short cut"" version released in limited edition box, and ""standard"" (the last one) is well...the standard edition.  
 ::::Plot and publication history are relevant to the main article. Yes, its a lot of info, but not enough to merit a list article. Chris is going to use that to split the manga info. If production and reception (yes I know, censorship, but again, not that significant.) I think a few extra info can be added to Publication (not a lot) and bring full story of the original manga (the main plot).   
 :::::But the main article doesn't need all of the publication history. Look at Sailor Moon#Manga. That's all the information on publication they have with a longer section at the list of chapters. I've expanded the plot summary on the main article, but I don't know enough about the MANMACHINE INTERFACE or HUMAN-ERROR PROCESSER books to write anything more detailed than the two senteces as they are now. I will not agree to Chris's form of the two page system because it just does not make sense and is not featured in any other anime article.—Ryulong (琉竜)  

 Well probably not republications such as Kodansha USA, but noting the alternate versions is important for at least gits2. And probably noting what makes each one different isn't that important either. 

 Git2 all takes place in the same day and each chapter at a different time (2:00pm, 4:00pm etc.). Oddly, the prologue and epilogue are before all the other chapters and explain where motoko's evolution has reached. So Gits2 main plot could be first and last chapter. Gits1.5 is about section 9 without Motoko and the new tongue and cheek humorous section 9 member Azuma and a little bit on Proto. However Gits1.5 has no specific plot.   
 :Really not that important but just fix what I have now because arguing with Chris is getting nowhere. But at least follow the examples of Sailor Moon and other articles.—Ryulong (琉竜)
