Talk:Night Sky Sword

Sword name
Hey guys, now that I believe we have settled the issue of content from the web novels, I wanted to know if we can change the name of this page. I found translations of web novel chapters 7 & 8 and I learned the name of this sword. Is it okay to use that name or would you guys perfer if we wait until the LN comes out and officially names it (BTW I will not post it in this question due to spoilers)?

I personally think we should wait for the name to be revealed on the LN before changing anything.

If you guys want to name based on the LN, that is cool with me too. Speaking of which, seeing as how in Vol. 11 Kirito referes to this sword as "black one" do you guys think we should change the name of this page to "Black Sword", at least until the official name comes out?

Ummmmm yeah all the mentioned names aren't really good... Just wait till the name is mentioned.

Ugh, why is this issue being brought back up? The "Black Sword" redirects to "Black Iron Greatsword" and it isn't an official name either. --Gsimenas (talk) 10:05, December 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * The name used there are in << >> ....c933103 (talk) 10:07, December 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * But it's not an official name, as Kirito said himself that he hasn't thought of a proper name for it yet; he just refers to it as the black sword as he needs a way to refer to it. «» are basically "" in English, meaning that it isn't always an official name/term. --Gsimenas (talk) 10:09, 2013 December 25 (UTC)


 * So it isn't something like Proper name mark ....c933103 (talk) 10:17, December 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * In this case, it isn't. Quote:


 * "Haven't you thought of a proper name for that sword yet?"
 * This was the fourth time Eugeo had asked that question since the sword was completed, but ::Kirito still replied with the same answer.
 * "Um, hmm... not yet..."
 * "Hurry up and decide already. It's pitiful for the sword, being called that «black one» all the time, isn't it."


 * As you can see, guillemets are used in this case, but it is not an official name, just a placeholder way to refer to it. --Gsimenas (talk) 10:25, December 25, 2013 (UTC)

Whetstones
In Volume 10 it is stated that 6 whetstones, which were supposed to last for 3 years, were used up in making the stone, but in Volume 11, it's stated that it was 3 whetstones, which were supposed to last for 10 years. Which is it? o.O
