    Music Video Files Re-Evaluation (STAFF ONLY)

    So currently our Editing Rules page lists the following rule: This has been put into question recently in the Profile Deletion Requests Thread, where some staff members were in support of enacting this rule for file deletions, while others were against it. To move discussion this thread has...

    Degrees of Infinity - Being More Specific

    After some discussion here, it was determined that we need to draft an editing rule regarding that the degree of infinity for tiers Low 1-C and above should be clarified whenever it is known. My Proposal: In addition to this issue, I think many people can agree that in general finding the...

    Why profiles are so annoying to edit now?

    For some reason, when I try to edit the profiles in either source mode or visual mode in the wikia, it doesn't let me write anything unless I hold the mouse, and even then it's a pain to write anything. If anyone else have this problem, or know about this problem, then I'll be happy to hear it

    Important: A project to replace all Discord images in our regular wiki pages

    Hello. As I mentioned in the thread linked below a few months ago, Discord images extremely easily disappear, including if an old post is deleted or the chat room it was posted in is closed down, so, for safety reasons, we need to replace all links to them in our regular wiki pages with images...

    Wiki linking to discussion threads or Discord images

    Given that Bobsican is being impatient regarding this subject, I suppose that I have to stress out a discussion thread despite that I am already overwhelmed with work. Anyway, this is not remotely a new practice, given that I have been giving these instructions for years within the wiki, but...

    Regarding linking to the wiki forum as evidence on wiki pages

    It appears that @Antvasima is quite against the practice of linking directly to sections of the wiki forum for purposes of explaining a detail within a page's contents, namely out of this compromising the accessability of the information for visitors, respectively. However, it appears that this...

    Important: A new rule about References

    Renaming character pages to their verse name than the debuted entry

    Because of a recent CRT, it's now a Editing Rule to usually clarify a character's name if needed in case it's the same or too similar to others by the name of their verse, rather than their respective entry they debuted on, beyond some exceptions as the rule clarifies. That being said, report...

    Off-Site Respect Threads on Wiki Pages (Staff Only)

    I know I'm not staff and all, but I got authorization from Ant to do this thread. Anyways, it has been noticed recently that there's some profiles that link to off-site "Respect Threads", which list a bunch of miscelaneous feats and statements. The problem? Such threads don't follow our...

    The New Template So you're surfing the wiki and stumbled upon a page, say Dragon Ball, and you want to view all the discussion threads related to it.

    Hello there! So, in a recent thread concerning popular works that contain amounts of works that don’t belong to the owner, a new rule concerning what defines ‘Fan-Made’ was developed. The exact rule is as such: Do not add any original or fan-made characters to the wiki. If you wish to create...

    Making it compulsory to list sources for multi-work series

    This is something that is surprisingly not a rule, or something that is even done often But I want to ask for a proposal to the editing rules and standard format for profiles, that we make it compulsory for people to source statements made within profile, for any multi-work series i.e. Series...

    A rule about verse pages that feature link images for non-existent profiles

    As I mentioned here, some verse pages have link images for characters that don't have a profile. These images lead to empty pages like this or this. I think that a rule should be established about it, in order to have verse pages with only image links for characters that actually have a profile...

    Adding Music to Character Pages?

    What the title says. Just something I wanted to throw in real quick. I know we are a indexing site first and foremost, but would it hurt to suggest adding music/character themes to the pages on the wikia? You know, so there’s more “life” to them? We could do something like linking a soundcloud...

    I know it can seem like something out of nowhere, but there's plenty of profiles with this right now, namely the entirety of this popular verse's cast and this guy, for example. They seem nice and actually complement the stuff on pages by citing stuff behind whatever is on the page, however...
