Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind

Why is Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind on the list of Studio Ghibli feature films? The film was made by Topcraft production company in 1984 and Studio Ghibli was established in 1985. I would like to remove it, since it is not even on the list here List of Studio Ghibli works. Dasomm (talk) 17:39, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nausicaä has a notoriously nebulous status in Ghibli's filmography, as while the company did not formally exist during its production, much of its staff were called back for the production of Castle in the Sky (1986) and became the first employees of the studio at its inception. For that reason and a few others, many scholars retroactively discuss the film as Ghibli's spiritual debut. Things are further complicated by the fact that Ghibli owns Nausicaä's distribution rights and so advertises and releases the film under their label. Long story short, I understand the reasoning for your proposal, but we need to determine what the majority of reliable sources say on the subject. I have a few of those books taken out from the library right now, so I can review them and (hopefully) get back to you in a few days. I'd also encourage you to look through scholarly sources about Ghibli's history (many of which may be accessible to you through The Wikipedia Library) and collate their views as well. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 00:51, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Citogenesis incident

Until recently, the lead contained the following sentence,

The studio has also collaborated with video game studios on the visual development of several games.

This was originally added into the article in 2019 as,

Studio Ghibli has also collaborated with video game studios on the visual development of several video games

The source was an IMDB page for Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch,^{[cito 1]} which not only is not a reliable source, it's not in the source. This sentence was reworded a few times, and in 2023 the source was replaced with an article from Malaysian Foodie that clearly plagiarised the Wikipedia article by including nearly the exact sentence, "It has also collaborated with video game studios on the visual development of several games."^{[cito 2]}

Maybe this is not the most profound case of citogenesis (how could Malaysian Foodie fail us?), but actual point is that going forward, the lead should not mention video games... at all. Whatever extant sources there are just wouldn't confer that level of notability regarding their involvement with video games. Some staff were put on Ni no Kuni, and I think Jade Cocoon, but that should just stay in the body and stick with the facts if reliable sources do emerge detailing that.

Ty for @TechnoSquirrel69 for having removed it just now.

Grave of the Fireflies Streaming

I don't know the whole detail behind it so I didn't want to edit the page but I recently spotted Grave of the Fireflies on the UK version of Netflix. So I'd thought I'd point this out for anyone who knows more so we can update the page. Jamie64326 (talk) 23:45, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Added. Thanks for bringing it up, Jamie64326! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 03:30, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Producer correction requested on Marnie Was There

Toshio Suzuki is listed as Exec Producer in the credits of the actual film. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.97.219.255 (talk) 18:06, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! I took a look at the credits and did not find any mention of an executive producer (or Suzuki), only Yoshiaki Nishimura as the producer, which is already mentioned in this article and the film's article. Could you clarify where you're getting this information? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 18:23, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
