I think we should keep the names we've all gotten used to (and I'm referring to all non-Korean speaking fans of ToG when I say that) and merely add these newer translations as additional names at the start of the article so that new readers/new wiki viewers don't get confused. Better yet we could create a page and put it on the Home Page that has all the translations that highlight the differences between the LINE and The Company translations.

I mean currently some of our pages still keep translations that would be deemed incorrect from The Company translations. One example of this would be the Rak Wraithraiser pages; The Company translated his name as Rak Wreckraiser.

I don't like the fact that LINE ousted The Company out and didn't even consider if The Company would translate for them, having done it for so many years. I'm sure The Company wouldn't mind working under LINE. But hey, what can you do...

EDIT: Oh yes. Wikia Contributor(s), why don't you make an account so your contributions to the wiki (and any other wikis for that matter) can be recognised by everyone ?

official
  adjective : of or relating to the job or work of someone in a position of authority

—used to describe something that is said in a public way by someone in a position of authority.





Naver is in position of authority over Webtoons. So they are official. Even though their overall quality is shitty, the fact LINE is official doesn't change.





Besides, the names of LINE translations are actually following original Korean better.
