:The captions that were added in the video are official though. They are from Rare Replay. In the game, you can put subtitles on or off, and when you do put the subtitles on, you see that they say "Edison". I'm sure that the correct name is indeed "Edson", but since "Edison" was already used officially before, we have to mention both. I own Rare Replay and I know it is a fact that they do call him "Edison" in the game. --[[User:Metalex123|Metalex123]] ([[User talk:Metalex123|talk]]) 03:51, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

::The captions in the video you linked were added by the non-Rare pirate uploader, as far as I'm aware. I went into Rare Replay and could not find a caption option -- would you please advise me how to turn on the captions in Rare Replay so that I may check myself? And either way, the character has <i>never</i> been referred to as 'Edison' by <i>any</i> Rare employee, former or current. <i>If</i> those captions do appear in the actual Rare Replay version of the video (please advise how to activate this, because I tried and could not figure it out), they are clearly typos as the speakers are very clearly saying 'Edson'. And <i>if</i> those captions prove official, then I will talk directly to Rare and the employees to get it confirmed that it was a typo, and that will trump your ridiculous citation. We will not use typos as a validation to perpetuate misinformation, and that is not the intent of the wiki. This "Edison" thing needs to end, and I will see to it that it does. Please advise on how to activate the captions in Rare Replay, and this will move forward from there. --[[User:RdCrestdBreegull|RdCrestdBreegull]] ([[User talk:RdCrestdBreegull|talk]])

:::In the main menu of the game, press the "Start" button (the button with three lines on it that replaces the usual "Start" button on controllers), which leads you to a "Global Options" menu. First thing you should see in that menu is the option to activate or deactivate subtitles. I just checked on my own copy of the game, and yes, the subtitles are the exact same as the one from the YouTube video, with the mention of "Edison", so the uploader didn't add fan subtitles. Also even if it is a typo, it was used in something official Rare-related, so we should still mention it. If it's confirmed to be a typo, then we could change it to "Edson, also known as Edison due to a typo in Rare Replay, is...", or something like that. I also believe that "Edson" is the real name for the character, don't worry, but since the name "Edison" is mentionned in something official, even if it's a typo, it should still be mentionned on the article. --[[User:Metalex123|Metalex123]] ([[User talk:Metalex123|talk]]) 08:50, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
