As somebody that was '''requested by Bulbapedia staff''' to create this page in order to help train users as part of a bigger proposal, using the phrase <u>lazy Japanese terms</u> in your edit message is incredibly rude. "Some image repository's tagged images" referring to SakugaBooru? As mentioned in the references that you deleted, it is a consistently cited source used by Japanese animation staff when working on series, with many having accounts where they upload their own work. You also maintained the SakugaBlog glossary reference, which uses the tags in the same context, from the same site. You also kept some of the Booru refs too? We can't upload videos to Bulbapedia, so having a frame of reference as to what this sort of thing is supposed to look like is the next best thing, and gives readers a wider view of the subject if they want to learn more. Additionally, not only is that edit message phrased ''really'' questionably, (what makes them "lazy Japanese terms???") but these terms originated in Japanese, and don't have an English equivalent that means the exact same thing. Going down your list of changes from top to bottom: | As somebody that was '''requested by Bulbapedia staff''' to create this page in order to help train users as part of a bigger proposal, using the phrase <u>lazy Japanese terms</u> in your edit message is incredibly rude.

* I'm fine with the replacement of the term BANK with Bank animation (or even the "Bank System") but do not remove the usage of the term BANK.

Not only does the new JP Wikipedia article you linked use it, but the '''several''' references that you deleted were from staff on the series, (Iwane, Takagi, Kawagoe, some of who I personally talk about these terms with on a regular basis) using the term bank or BANK. This is a removal of information that was not needed, you could have just kept both. | ||

* Do not equate the term "limited animation" with "BANK." The page you yourself linked to (yet again, Wikipedia, which I was chastised for referencing myself before) explicitly states that, in relation to Japanese television, that anime, and I quote: '''"features scenes of mouth moving with occasional eye blinks, rendered long shots of detailed backgrounds, a low frame rate (especially in earlier productions) and rare use of 2D fluidity on motion-blur filled action alongside reused drawings, using style conventions from Japanese comic books (manga)."''' None of this except for "reused drawings" even relates to BANK, and none of this means that BANK = limited animation. Animation re-use does not have to be inherently limited, the exact example in the article that I wrote mentions Z-Moves as an instance of BANK that is done solely because of how complex it appears. It's far from being inherently limited, to the degree where it's part of a standard industry trope, typically related to henshin/magical girl transformations etc. | * Do not equate the term "limited animation" with "BANK."
