Forum:Chapter release dates

A good part of the chapter pages doesn't have a full date, but only the year. Does anybody know where we can find those dates? Or are we doomed to have just the year?

I've been looking into that. While I cannot find a place for all the chapters, I found a way to fill in at least some of them. We have a list of jump issues that have One Piece characters on the covers. Better yet, we have images of the covers as well as the issue number. We can start from there, filling in those, and then working from there as far as we can. It would ultimately be a stall tactic to make progress while we look for something more absolute. 04:52, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

New Discussion
Update: Greg from One Piece podcast recently released a table with each Jump's issue release date and Oda's comments on Jump. That said, he explicitly said he did not grant the use of his translation of Oda's comments (as they are in English) on other sites, also I felt he was implicitly talking about us in his introduction. Aside the comments, I fell there is no problem with updating the chapter release dates, although I think as token of thanks we should add a reference with the URL to that page (since it's actually the only source available). I think we should leave the comments matter aside, as we cannot use his translation, but we didn't have that sort of informations on the wiki to begin with, so I don't think it's a problem.

I remember that I used scanlation sites for some of them since OneManga use to have Jump releases alongside the scanlation release. I don't think sites do that anymore. SeaTerror (talk) 20:36, April 4, 2013 (UTC)

Let's get adding the release dates. 21:35, April 9, 2013 (UTC)

Well, I think it would be really important for us to have these dates. But it's a question of whether or not Greg would have a problem with us using them as a source. Has anyone thought about contacting him about it? If someone does, it should be someone who wasn't around when the wiki first had problems with him. 04:30, April 11, 2013 (UTC)

Guess that's you volunteering. 04:57, April 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * I know nothing of this podcast, nor any way to contact Greg. So someone else should probably do it. And that's only if other users even think it's a good idea to contact him. 11:56, Apri 11, 2013 (UTC)

There is no problem in using the dates as long we add the reference, Greg just doesn't want other to use their translations of Oda's comments.

I should inform anyone who don't know this yet or forgot but Greg hates One Piece Wikia and had been a dick to us multiple times over the years. My bet is if we ask him, he'll say no and probably in a jackass way. If we don't ask him, he'll accuse us of stealing it from him in a jackass way too. 22:11, April 11, 2013 (UTC)

Then you'll be glad to know that I found something that throws a monkey wrench into his little site. From our own archives, we have the cover of the Shonen Jump featuring chapter 1. . It is issue 34, with a listed release date of August 4th, 1997. Not, July 29th, as our hateful colleague has so confidently published. While his dates might be wrong, I think we can use his issue and chapter numbers in conjunction with the 61 jump covers we have on here. While not complete, it will serve as a helpful jumping off point since then we will only have to fill in the gaps. 22:58, April 11, 2013 (UTC)
