I'm going to be updating the poll in about a week, any/all ideas on what the next poll should be (plus responses) can be posted here!

So where did Shin come from then? I've never looked at the raws, just the basic reading of the kanji?

I understand your view, but until we get a better source like the con or event items scanned, let's assume it's Shin, we can always go back and correct it later on. I'm at work right now though, so when I get home I'll check around a bit more. It would be easier if the Japanese fandom had a wiki as well... but things are only fun if they take time!

OK the translation team who puts put Sekai-ichi has replied! I'm writing this from my phone so I'm just going to copy paste as best as possible because the wiki looks and behaves like utter shit on my phone. This is a nightmare.
Hi there!
His name is indeed Shin; I don't have my volumes with me at the moment, but the raws always have the furigana beside the kanji, telling you how to read the kanji. So there's no way we would have made as huge a mistake as reading しん as あらた lol! The Japanese raws leave no room for interpretation in that instance, so it's definitely Haitani SHIN and not ARATA.
Hope that helps! Hide quoted text
So I'm not sure why the Japanese fandom is referring to him as Arata, but that isnt his name.

Hmm, fortunately, the poll is changing on the 6th (I think that's when I created it, I want to leave them up for a month or date-to-date), so I'll see if I can find out how we should be reading his name?
I sent an email to a team which translates the manga to see if they could tell me how it's read. I couldn't even find the kanji for his name OTL. Hopefully they're able to get back to me on that and we can correct the information. I don't see much for the Japanese fandom honestly, I can't even locate their Wikia page, they may not even have one.
But I'll give it a day to see if they get back to me, afterwards I'll update the poll to just read 'Haitani', ^^;;

Hey!
So I thought I would use a few of these for the next few months to fill the poll.
This month, I want to use 'Love Rival you wouldn't mind seeing succeed?', except I think I'm confusing Junjou and Sekai-ichi so I want to post the rivals below and whenever you get a chance, add to them or take one out?
- An Kohinata
- Yanase Yuu
- Haitani Shin
Is this all? Or am I missing someone?

I noticed that some info boxes are getting tabs which provide alternate photos of the character, or the Japanese manga cover versus the English cover.
In order to maintain uniformity on the Wiki, all the infoboxes will need to be updated so that they have these tabs. I don't expect this to be something just one person will do, there's a lot of characters and manga volumes, consider this a new task for the Wiki if you ever get bored.
