Shouldn't it be Gotou Maki?

'''It depends on which romanising method you use, one favours writing all hiragana characters 1-1 with the roman alphabet the other favours adding an accent over long vowels, so tou becomes tō. over time lazyness causes the accent to be dropped.''' --Womby

Not to mention, whenever Maki's name is romanized on anything it's written "Goto" -- see her albums, singles, DVDs, etc. --Gocchin 06:35, 23 February 2007 (JST)

Single/Album list with images?
Although it looks nice, the lists of singles and albums are a wee bit long with those images added. It's just silly to have to scroll this much just to get to the albums...

Using a table more efficient use of screenspace can be made, but tables are hard(er) to edit. But lists and images don't mix to well IMHO. Dilemma. What can we do to create a more userfriendly page?

Couldn't we just use the same system we use on the other pages to keep everything consistent? Get rid of the images and just display the album/single/etc images on the specific pages themselves. --Emeraldas 07:03, 11 Jun 2005 (JST)


 * How does the table below look? It's what's on the Melon Kinenbi page, but no one has really commented on it there.


 * I agree it should be consistent, though. Is this table fine, or should single/album covers simply not be displayed on the artist page? --Saa 08:51, 30 October 2005 (JST)


 * I prefer that to having them as they currently are. The only thing is that they're a bit spaced out, so how about this: --Oben 09:27, 30 October 2005 (JST)


 * Nifty idea, but it's a problem if one's resolution isn't high enough, or if one increases the font size, or if one's browser isn't maximized. Try it: resize your browser window, and as you make it smaller, you get 2-1-2-1 covers, and then you get 1 per line.
 * If needed, the covers can be made smaller than they already are. --Saa 11:03, 30 October 2005 (JST)
 * How about this:


 * I'm not really sure how Wiki's work, but can we force it to have a min-width? --Oben 20:26, 30 October 2005 (JST)


 * I looked it up, and nothing I tried (setting cell width, using non-breaking spaces) fixed it.
 * It's less of a problem with the one you just presented, though, since it's much smaller to begin with. The only slight problem is that Suppin to Namida is the odd one out and maked the last row bigger than the others- if you have any ideas for it, feel free to test them.
 * I'm going to go ahead and implement your table for the time being, though. Thanks! --Saa 00:32, 31 October 2005 (JST)
 * Best I could come up with:


 * or


 * I still think we should keep images on the specific single/album pages; there's really no neat way to display them on the main page without major format changes and it looks best when consistent with other artists' pages. --Emeraldas 03:03, 31 October 2005 (JST)
 * What about photobook covers? Very few artist pages have single/album covers (because very few artists have all their covers uploaded...), but more are likely to have their photobook covers on their pages. --Saa 03:53, 31 October 2005 (JST)
 * I removed the single/album covers based on what you said. PB covers can stay, since there isn't a page for them, and also because they're more visual by nature to begin with. --Saa 02:06, 11 November 2005 (JST)

photobooks: to gallery or not to gallery
I was just wondering if you guys think the photobook section would look any better with a row of pics and a list of titles instead of the gallery... Here's both versions:

Solo



 * [2001.11.06] 後藤真希 (Goto Maki)
 * [2003.03.21] maki
 * [2003.06.27] more maki
 * [2004.04.24] PRISM
 * [2005.04.26] Dear...


 * I think the second version looks cleaner and more compact... -- KenobiwanX
 * Second version looks much better. --Emeraldas 18:35, 12 Aug 2005 (JST)
 * I agree. Compact is good --ilikejpop 23:35, 12 Aug 2005 (JST)
 * I think we should use iframes and marquee tags ... but if not the 2nd is preferable. --Womby
 * What are iframes and marquee tags??? Meanwhile, if no one objects, I think I'll go ahead and update Maki's photobook section and see how it looks. -- KenobiwanX
 * Iframes are inline frames, just like normal frames they allow you to load other pages into its own mini viewport, unlike normal frames the included page will (is supposed to) look like a seamless part of the page, it is typically used for adverts but on a badly written implementation can cause scroll bars to appear in the middle of the page.
 * The marquee tag is an internet explorer exclusive tag, it creates a side scrolling marquee on the page, some people think it looks ultra cool, others (more sensible people) think it is the most disgusting tag since &lt;blink&gt;
 * Personally I have difficulty in deciding which is worse on a page, an iframe or a marquee --Womby


 * Ah-soooo... it sounded like you liked iframes. And yeah, I knew what the marquee tag was, but I didn't know what it had to do with iframes. -- KenobiwanX
