So this is less about the album itself and more about the songs.

Recently I brought out my copy of FANTASCAPE Act.1 from my shelf and want to add the missing long version lyrics of Arata's songs. Then I noticed there are differences between the game version of the lyrics already in the wiki and the long version in the album. Some are just different typesetting, punctuation, or more troubling, simply embarrassing or fatal typos. Some of the typos make me suspect the mistakes might have come from transcribing by ears instead of sourcing the OST booklet, if not just simple carelessness, since some of the differences altered the meaning.

(I'm surprised it seems this hasn't been addressed yet for Kazuasobi in particular considering the correct albeit with different typesetting long version is here.)

Now my question is, should we make changes to the game version lyrics (and maybe long too) according to the album long versions or keep them as is? Of course if the differences came from the booklet we can keep them (with obvious typos removed), but I don't have IIDX OSTs or scans of them to do crosschecking myself.

Also, it doesn't seem there's any glaring mistake in BALLAD THE FEATHERS' lyrics, but since I'm planning to add translations too, I'm wondering what to do with the game version's translation in term of consistency. Obviously my translation has differences from it since I'm not the one who wrote the old one, but I think it would be rude if I replace it without asking if it's allowed or not. --Erikartika (talk) 17:04, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
