Immature edits or vandalism

Vandalism is what we are trying to prevent on Wikipedia, as a user somehow added unneeded edits on that page. It is to clarify that Light Yagami does not eat such things made by real-life companies that are never in anime. If anime included real life companies and very unhealthy junk food they would've lost strength in anime logic. To my concern, immature users and editors claimed that he is immortal though he claims to be a god of the world (in the anime) Please refrain from making (or adding) vandalism in any article referred to "Death Note". 2A00:23C8:8703:C601:900C:2EE0:B13:9FD8 (talk) 17:32, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protecting page

To whoever made this page, can you please semi-protect it due to too many immature edits and too much vandalism on there. People claimed that the page is okay and a user thought Light yagami was immortal even though he died at the end of the anime, so just semi-protect this page due to vandalism.

If you did, please set it to only "users you trust" or "admins". thanks. 2A00:23C8:8703:C601:2CA6:D15:CC7E:42DD (talk) 17:21, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection request

Someone should consider semi-protecting this page, because people are vandalising this page too much and impersonating people. Please semi-protect this page because of excessive vandalism. 2A00:23C8:8703:C601:A4AB:2A6E:FEE1:4312 (talk) 16:46, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why in some photos light is wearing jeans?

“and Obata avoided jeans” then why is light yagami wearing jeans in some drawings that I found on google? This makes no sense and is pointless. That sentence should be changed to “and Obata sometimes made the character wear jeans”. 2A00:23C8:8703:C601:8577:5EB5:A1B8:B507 (talk) 17:44, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Spoilers

I am not familiar with Wikipedia’s policies on spoilers, and I recognize that this series is quite old at this point. But I was surprised to see this line included in the *first paragraph* of this article:

> upon eventually befriending and murdering him, Light takes over as the new L.

Isn’t this unnecessary? I find it really weird for a major plot point / spoiler to be revealed in the first paragraph of any Wikipedia article. I I K I I (talk) 13:18, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of the category "Fictional characters with personality disorders"

I was wondering what the others think of removing the category of "Fictional characters with personality disorders"? It's primarily a fanon "theory" designated to Light that has no official confirmation from Ohba, the author, not to mention that he does not meet the full-criteria of any personality disorder based on the DSM-V. Plus, these two blog posts essentially discredit the idea of Light having a formal personality disorder:
