Yes, it's that time again. Recently, some of our old staff members, who contributed toward the growth of the wiki invaluably over the years, have retired. Alas, we obviously can't expect them to shoulder the burden forever. They have done their part, and now it's time for the new blood to...
This week has been hailed by a good amount of you as some kind of apocalypse event, some cataclysm hailed by the peanut gallery of VSBW in years past to be the supposed downfall of the community. It's disheartening to see, I must admit, that so many would look at a community that they are a part...
I give up. I ask for a demotion.
I decided that I am stepping down from Staff. I'm sure this is obvious for most people but I'm frankly just not fit for this position anymore. Everytime I have to deal with Moderation I get angry and frustrated and just lose my cool and I often bring drama. I'm...
Hello.
I and AKM sama just want to give a peaceful reminder that we all need to stop taking out our frustrations about the bad state of the world on other people in this community, whether in the forum, or more commonly Discord chat rooms, because of which lots of productive, helpful and highly...
Hello.
@WeeklyBattles, one of our longest serving/most faithful staff members, has now made over 100,000 wiki edits.
I want to give big thanks for all of his help over the years, and congratulate him for the milestone.
Please show him your support below.
So yeah, I'm retiring from my position as staff on the site. People who have contact with me on discord might find this unsurprising, although this might come as a shock to those who aren't familiar with what I've been up to since I went radio silent on the forum proper for a while. I was...
Hello.
I wonder if any of our administrators would be willing to help out by subscribing to the rule-violations reports thread for the wiki's internal forum:
https://vsbattles.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000068772/r/4400000000007086749

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. Long ago, this was conveniently possible when we still had our old forum and threads. Then everything changed when the UCP happened. And when we...
So after the UCP update, galleries that had advanced and unconventional coding, are no longer working properly. This one is a good example (you can see the "Characters" section).
Apparently this is because the parameters that were being used in the <gallery> tag are no longer available in...
I wasn't planning on making this thread, but people were apparently upset that I made my leave quietly; most people who knw me well know that I hate being the center of attention since it makes me uncomfortable, but at the same time, I've been a member for nearly six years now, so I should leave...
Hello.
In order to provide an easier overview of the history of past discussion threads that are important enough to have been highlighted by our staff, it is highly recommended that the links and titles for them are posted below shortly after they have been created.
The newest such...
Casual title but the message is core: Im leaving, probably for good.
Not many people will know me and that is fine, im doing this for the people who might care. I have basically 2 reasons for leaving. First, i was barely active in this place since months now, leaving me with basically no reason...
You were expecting Ant. But it is I, AKM!
After getting input from most of our current staff, the bureaucrats have decided to promote the following members:

A big congratulations to all of them, and please make them feel...
As I am still getting reports that people are not getting notifications from threads properly, I wanted to clear it up. This is a XenForo thing and those who have used NarutoForums or other such forums before may already know about it. Once you receive a notification from a thread and you ignore...
Promestein, one of our most loyal, helpful, reliable, rational, and productive staff members, has reached over 50,000 edits, and far more if we include her Bot account.
My congratulations for the milestone, and thanks for all of her massive help over the years. I apologise for not noticing this...
Exactly 10 years ago on this day, the VS Battles Wiki was created. Although the first page that was created was just the wiki's home page, the first verse page was JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and the first character page was Son Goku.
10 years later, we have come a long way with a total of almost...
This is an announcement thread for all the discussion moderators and administrators that they are required to continuously help out with approving the posts/comments from new members, as long as they are not troll posts. You can find this in the Approval Queue that should be visible at the...
Hello.
The VS Battles wiki bureaucrats have decided to promote our resident tiering system specialist @Ultima_Reality to a position as a consultant in this wiki community.
My congratulations for the very well-deserved promotion, and please make him feel welcome below.
As I mentioned in our forum migration thread, we need a new rule for that all content revision edits in our profile pages should always include links to the forum discussion threads in which the revisions were accepted by our staff in the edit summary boxes, in order to greatly simplify the wiki...
As mentioned in this thread, this is another project after which we can start allowing CRTs. We got a list of pages containing illegal links that need to be replaced, from a SOAP member. We require volunteers for this project so we can get it done. This is important because such links can cause...
FORUM MOVE WHEN?
Well that meme is dead, but a new question has taken it's place now - "CRTs when?"
The answer is, yet again, "SOON" (I'm kidding).
To put it simply, we need to get 2 important sitewide revision projects out of the way in order for our staff members to be able to fully focus...

I have decided that I'll be quitting my job as an admin in the wiki. What's the reason for this? Well, it's because I've realized that I haven't been doing a good job anymore. I don't monitor edits or clean up pages at all, I don't try to go into content revisions and offer help, I tend to avoid...

Hello, VS Battle Wiki.
I have an announcement to make - I am retiring from my position as a Discussion Moderator and I am leaving the wiki altogether.
I have come to hate debating with a passion. To me, debating is just the ceaseless arguing. And the winner is just the one who yells the...

Yes, the title is an oven joke.
First of all, Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. Now that that's out of the way, I'm going to take an official break from the wiki starting January. The reason for this is that the piling stress of having to manage multiple verses at once has finally taken...

Hey, just wanted to inform everyone that I'll be off the wiki for a while. It's my end semester exams, they are coming soon and I will at least have to try and prepare, although that's not going all that well at the moment
To be honest, my investment in the site isn't very high as of late, and...
I was going to post this sooner, but aside from being busy for the past month, I've also been unsure of what to say. I've wondered many a time if it was better to simply fade away, but then I realized I'm a moron and that would be shitty, so here I am. I'll try to keep this brief.

So I'm not going to say this is due to RL because I have plenty of free time, but this is more just a general disinterest in the site, mostly through burning myself out several times in lengthy debate threads and deciding it was in my best interests to spend my free time on stuff that's more...
I feel like I'm uninterested in the wiki, and FANDOM in general, in current days, likely because of me simply getting tired with other stuff, so I will take a break from FANDOM in this week to not be overloaded.

Hello everyone.
As some of you are probably aware, my overall activity has decreased over the last few weeks. I'm sure those of you who have noticed are wondering why, so I suppose it's time I ripped the bandage off already.
I'm leaving. Yes, I'm calling it quits.
There are several reasons...
Hello.
I have some extremely serious news regarding the future of our forums.
As you may or may not know, Fandom had previously told us that the move to Discussions would happen first a few years down the line, after all the functions of the old forum had been properly replicated.
A few days...
So, as we all know, there has been some talk about quality control for profiles and mitigating the amount of poorly made profiles uploaded to the wiki. Now, while there is the verse audit group in the works for preexisting profiles of poor quality, it seems to me that more should be done for...

My fellow Community Council member Love Robi has charitably offered to help us out against the trolls.

Well guys, at least this time I'm leaving on good terms.

My congratulations for the new position. Please make him feel welcome below.
Chat Moderator and Images Helper pages don't exist and it will be nice to have them because they are the pages who take a detailed look at how these roles work. Also, a minimal base of their responsibilities, benefits and appointment conditions would be nice to be built, like how it appears in...

Fandom advises that we start moving content immediately. Transfering information from large wikis such as this can take months. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I brought this question because the most controversial thing about vs battle wiki other than the wiki itself is the admins.
A lot of other sites say the admins here are bad or literally dogshit.
They often say a lot of the admins here like to abuse their power.

Matthew Schroeder, one of our most knowledgeable, helpful, hardworking, and dedicated longtime staff members, has reached over 50000 edits in this wiki.
My congratulations for the milestone.
Please show him your appreciation below.
Also, note that any hostile comments will be deleted.
Please report any poorly constructed articles on this thread, along with a link to the page in question.
This includes locked profiles with serious grammar/spelling/sentence structure errors and typos, but you are supposed to fix such problems within unlocked pages on your own.
Keep in mind...
So I've been on and watching the wiki for a while, but there's always been this question I've had. How does a member actually become a staff member? Is there some application process, interviews, or are people just scouted for positions?
What is it like being one? Is the job demanding serval...

Hello. I made something new for this wiki: the VS Battles Staff Timeline. Here you can see when our staff members (current and retired) got promoted, which positions they took at one or another time period, and when they retired. After all, for all these years we got 111 staff members: 59 of...

As you probably know, the right column of our front page looks rather empty, especially for the people who have an ad-blocker installed.
