Hello.

I have noticed that we have a few old calculations in regular wiki pages, that were written before our practice to post them in blogs.

Examples include Naruto - Rock Lee busts a meteorite, Bleach - Energy to destroy Soul King Palace, Bleach - Aizen's theoretical destruction of the Soul King's Palace, Bleach- Yhwach elevates the Vandenreich, Bleach- Shunsui's Bankai, User blog:Illuminati478/Bleach- Gremmy's Meteorite, Revised Editio (The last one is a blog post, but still shows up in a regular search for some reason), although help to find others would be appreciated.

This looks rather awkward when visitors are searching for pages related to these franchises or characters.

As such, I would appreciate staff help with moving the entire contents of these pages to regular blog posts, while giving full credit to whoever originally wrote the calculations, and then update the links of all profiles that refer to the pages.

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
You mean like creating my own blog where I put the content of said pages and then give credit to the original calc?
 
Yes. Although given that various profiles use these calculations for scaling, all of them would need to have their links updated as well.
 
Can't we just use a redirection? So that when someone tries to visit the calc page, it redirects you to the blog? That way we don't have to update all kinds of links.
 
I do not think that it is possible to redirect regular pages to blogs, and even if it is, that would defeat the entire purpose of this, as the pages would still show up as alternatives whenever somebody searches for "Bleach" or "Naruto".
 
The last one shows up in search results still because it's a redirect, as I moved it.

The rest can be moved to blogs and the redirects can be deleted. Easy.
 
Okay. Somebody still has to do it though, including finding all of the profile pages that link to the calculations.
 
Okay. Thank you very much for the help.
 
Okay. Thanks again.

Just to make sure, did you update the links for all the profiles that referrred to the old calculation pages?
 
There is also the calculation about Ryuko Matoi, don't know if that was already covered
 
My apologies about being a bother, but these ones seem to be left: Bleach DC and speed calculation based Ulquiorra's Lanza and Ichigo's Getsuga, Ryuko Matoi's Graduation Ceremony Calc
 
Okay. Thanks again. You have been very helpful.
